NEW PUBLICATIONS.

AMONG the most attractive OF the season.
able books that have reached us we find the
holiday edition of Babyiaad, from the press
of D. Lothrop & Co., of Boston, and the
December or Christmas number of the Wide

trations are all that the most exacting artistic

An Hour WITH CHARLOTTE BRoNTE; OR,
FLOWERS FROM A YORKSHIRE MOOR, is the
charming title of a new work by Laura @.
Holloway, of the Brooklyn Eagle. 1t is is
sued in beautiful style, and is adorned with
a fine steel portrait of the novelist. Il con-
tains biographical essay, many choice 'se-
lections" from the writings of Charlotte
Bronte, and = number of her most interest
ing letters and poems. The author has lec-
tured repeatedly on the subject, and has ia
ken infinite pains to gather from original
sources all the information that could be
obtained concerning her heroine. The book
is published by J. w. Bradley, OF Sc North

THE NORTH AMERICAN REVIEW, for JAN

One of these, and perhaps the most notable,
"Adulteration of Intelligence" is from the
pen Of that ripe scholar and experienced
journalist, Mr.. Charles L. Congdon, for so
many years one of the leading editorial
writers of the New York Ifibuae. Mr.. Cong
don treats, under this singular and striking
caption, subject of which the public mind
ia full and on which much has been said pro
and con recently-the grave evils 20 follow
from monopoly of the telegraph lines, of
press associations and influential public
journals. Mr.. Congdon's lifelong expe-
rience in journalism and his intimate &C.
quaintance with public affairs enables him
to write on this subject with freedom and
breadth that all intelligent men and women
must acknowledge. After this in interest

THE LAST FLAG OF TRUCE
Sent Ont by the ConfederaIes I'm Posses
sion OF Mrs. Gen. Custer.

The last flag of truce in the war of the
rebellion was carried by Col. R. NJ. Sims
from the Confederate Gen. John B. Gordon
to Gen. Sheridan. The cessation of HOSTILE
ties brought about by this truce Immediately
preceded the surrender at Apron attox
Courthouse. The flag borne by Col. SimH
was simply a white towel, and after the sur
render il disappeared entirely, and was for
q time forgotten in the excitement attending
the last events of the great conflict. Within
the present year Col. Sims wrote an account
OF the last truce of the war, which was print
ed in the Charleston Naos and C0arier, and
the publication of his narrative has interest
ed many persons in the search for the miss
ing flag of truce, which, it was believed, was
retained by somebody as valuable relic of
the rebellion. Gen. Sheridan was asked
Tor information concerning the towel, bot
neither he nor members of his staff whom he
consulted remembered anything about it.
However, the towel has at last been found.
1t is in the possession of Mrs. Elizabeth c.
Custer, widow of the late Gen. Custer, to
whom it was presented by Gen. Sheridan at
the close OF the war. Gen. earle A. Wood
ruff remembered this incident, although Gen.
Sheridan had forgotten il. Mrs. Custer re-
