We have received from the publishers copy
of THE GREAT SENSATION, by Leon Oliver, be-
ing n full history of the famous Beecher-Tilton-
Woodruff imbroglio, prefaced by biographical
sketches of Henry Ward Beecher, Theodore
Tilton, Victoria G. Woodruff, Tennie C. Claf-
lin, Col. Blood, and Henry c. Bowen, and il
Illustrated by portraits of the leading characters.
These sketches are written in free, chatty style,
and are highly interesting and graphic in their
delineations of the peculiar characteristics to
whom they refer, introducing by way of illus
tratlon, numerous anecdotes and incidents
which we do not remember to have seen in print
before. There are also copious extracts from
the speeches and writings of Mrs. Woodruff,
explanatory of her peculiar views upon social
freedom, and other topics.
Whatever people may think of these doc
trines, it is very certain they are commanding
the attention of large number of thinkers, and
they must be met and answered by arguments
evolved by careful Investigation. The story Of
the great scandal is clearly and as We think
| candily told, unbiased By any partizanship for
either side 1t is fascinating and entertaining
book, and will throw niue. light upon sub
ject which, while it has been much talked about
and written about, has not generally been well
understood. The style is pleasing and free
from anything which can be justly considered
offensive. The mechanical part OF the work IS
creditable \ large octave volume of nearly
400 pages, printed upon heavy paper from clear
type and elegantly bound in best English mus
lin, with gilt sides and back. We predict for
it an immense sale, and feel sure that any one
who commences to read it, will not be easily
induced to lay it down until it is persued to the
end.
1t is sold by subscription only, and may be
purchased from local or canvassiug agents, or
ordered direct from the publishers. Price, $500.
