We have examined with care the new work on
the Eastern Question,
50 The Cross AND THE CRESCENT"
OF which the publishers, Messrs. Hubbard
Brothers, of Philadelphia, have kindly sent us
the advanced sheets. This work has been very
carefully prepared by the well-known historian,
DIR. L. z. Brockett, whose previous works on
our late Civil War. the seven Weeks War, the
Franco. German War; &C., have had such large
sales. No work yet issued, or likely to be issued
on this question, which is now absorbing the
attention Of both Europe aHd America. can
compare with this in fullness, accuracy, and in
terest. We have here in condensed form, but
written in o most attractive style, tho history,
religion. and social life, not only OF Russia and
Turkey, but OF the principalitles, and the coun-
tries ajaceDt; the relations Of the great powers
of Europe to the Contending Nations, the
causes which led to the war, the positions OF
the tributary states, the religious and social
conditions OF the provinces where theinsurrec'
ton began, and the whole history, as 1t has
never been told elsewhere, OF the horrible
massacres and outrages in Bulgaria, year ago.
We have also full account OF the earliest ef-
forts OF the Great Powers to prevent war, and
the circumstances of their failure; and then,
in mastery word picture, birds eye view OF
the whole situation, and OF all parties concern
ed, as it was on the day OF the declaration OF
war; Appended to this clear and deeply inter-
estiug narrative, we have biographical sketches
Of the leading actors in this great drama, not
dry biographical dictionary notices, but por-
traltures which enable you to read the souls OF
the men, and to understand the motives OF their
action.
The whole book IS most valuable contribu-
ton to modern history. The price 10 very low,
for 1t has over 500 pages, and so elegant Illus
tratlons, and every man and woman. and every
boy and girl in the community, ought to possess
and read it. The farmer needs it to learn how
