WALL DECORATION.

WHAT SHALL WE DO WITH OUR WALLS BY CLAIR
ENCE COOK. Small 4tor pp. 80. Warren, ruler q
Co.
This handsome little tract was written for the firm
Of manufacturers whose names appear in the I'M
print ip order to call attention to project in which
they have engaged, for supplying the market with
Wallpapers designed by American artists OF high
standing Two of orr best-known painters, Messrs.
Samuel Coleman and Louis c. Tiffany, are now en-
gagged in the work and the manufacturers have IN
vted the cooperation OF Others by offering five prizes
in sums ranging from $1,000 TO $500, to be com
peted for this year. While the direct purpose OF Mr.
Cook is avowedly 10 promote good enterprise, he
has produced monograph of remarkable interest to
househoders and to all students of decorative art
He lays down the principles which ought to guide
us in wall-decoraton, aud furnishes valuable hints
for the treatrcent Of different styles Of rooms and
the whole treatise if written in that clear, graceful
and engaging style,wbc we all admired 40 much
in The House Beautiful" Several excellent speci-
mems of the designs of Mcssrs Coleman and Tiffany.

ment that rapidly advanced prices for tho entire
List TO the highest points Of the day-Lake Shore
from early sales at 122ia to 124, Michigan Central
from 104l9 to 107i2, Jersey Central from 007s TO
99as, Delaware. Lackawanna and Western from
1853 to 1882, and st. Paul from 110as TO 1l1A.
The prices, however, were not sustained TO the
close, and the reaction left figures generally
lower than the last prices of Saturday
The days movements were clearly those Of ma
nipulation, but for what purpose is interesting
problem. There certainly no special reason Tor
prices opening nearly l per cent lower than they
ended Saturday night Neither was there any
special reason for the sudden boom that occurred
late in the day. But whatever may be the purpose
in view by the manipulatOrs, what is done in the
way of q stock market is confined TO the regular
operators, the public taking no hand in it. The
last upward movement was rather led by New-Jer-
sey Central, and the alleged for the advance
in that stock (which would be no cause il it were
truc) was report that the Observation-Disclosures con-
nectiOn with the Wabash system had been agreed
upon. II seems TO be too ridiculous TO admit Of dis
cussion that if the Wabash system OF any other
Western system desires to make all Atlantic connec-
ton il will use road that is bonded for $36O,OOO
per mile, when parallel "a miles Of road may be
built, with terminal facilities, at less than $4,000
per mile or that if the Jersey Central IL used IS the
Eastern terminus of great through route, 1t can DO
upon any terms that will be proportionate To It's
immense liabilities Nevertheless the scheme stha
common talk in speculative circles, and us to 40
for jersey Central stock seemingly is rs confidently
predicted as by the same persons three years ago. it
was predicted that 40 per cent for the company's
consolidated bonds would be high price for them.
The Southwestern shares, excepting those of Texas
and Pacific shared the fortunes of the general list,
and generally show final losses. Texas and Pacific,
however, rose to 63l4 and ended at 62Ss. Louisville
and Nashville recovered from Saturday afternoons
decline, sold up to 99l2, and closed at 0S7s. The
Elevated stocks all weak the day through, and
ended at near their lowest figures. Western
Union was dull, and such small dealings ~ there
were in the stock were without feature. The mar.
kct closed weak.
Government bonds were strong but duh, the total
sales at the Boards, amounting only 10 100000. The
final bids show q decline of i for the IS, and an
advance of is for the As. Annexed are the closing

Up. le6. Lee q shepard
1t is surprise to find in the literary recreations oil
o sailor 81 many evidences of fine poetical taste
and familiarity with imaginative creations, esPe-
cially of the classical school, Commander Gibson
offers us in this pretty little volume. The life OF
naval officer is ordinarily too much taken up with
hard practical affairs TO furnish favorable con-
dtions for the cultivation of the fancy; but this
gentleman, in his cruises about the world, seems to
have found everywhere a stimulus for the literary
faculty. The two poems which he has placed at the
head of his collection " Persephone" and "Sibylla
Curnanas seem to us the ripest in thought and the
most truly poetcal in expression of oil the pieces IN
the volume; in them n genuine classical spirit
voices itself in choice and suggestive diction. In
the rest of the book, however, the reader Will ind
much to admire, and the variety IN style and SUD
ject is all that the most exacting could demand

and interest The denlisc of Mr. Carlyle mas proV'u
no execution to the rule. What the reader VIII hnd
IN this work of MI Wylie is not epy specially pre-
found discussion Of Mr. Carlyles character or pro
auctions but some addition to thestock ofmnteliai
which is required for coming to definite conclusion
respectinC q notable man with understanding anu
vet not easily understood. The author has gwen VIZ
a carefully arranged biography-perhaps the oes' Vi
that sort which has yet been printed lie wah 'Io'

His work is full of anecdote, apparently authen'io'
and ALWAYS picuant He has not the ordinary bias OF
liographer and plainly the foibles ana weh-
ucss she merits and sirengtho of the remarkable man
whose story he has undertaken to tell by patience
and industry he has collected much which ls new.
and upon several points about which there have
been contradictory statements he throws the hent
which a well-nfor1ned man only could contribute
As evidence Of his paiusfaking we may refer 10 'ho
chapter upon Leigh Hunt and that poets friendly
relations with Carlylo-really the most sensible
niece of writing about the matter which we have so
far encountered
Upon the whole considering how much has
already been told about Mr.. Carlyle, and the great
amount of writing which has followed his death, we
may safely commend this memoir as fresh and IN
structivc. 1t is ell the welcome because II Is
not in the least pretentious and gives little evil
dencc of haste or of padding. Mr.. Wylie modestly
hopes that this account Of Thomas Carlyle VIII be OF
some slight srvice as a guide to the study OF his
writing IL will certainly he that while it will not
fail to Increase the readers stock of information
concerning the man. There is no obtrusive judg-
ment in the book but there is no little information
,arcf,llly arranged and lucidly impaired.
