Many Portland people have seen and will
remember a little foreign phrase book,
Senior Pedro Carolino's New Guide of the
Conversation in Portuguese and English:
In all seriousness this ambitious "Portigee,'
as our Irish friends put it, compiled small
grammar for the instruction of the youth of
his country in the English language. The
fact that he himself only knew English by a
dictionary was no obstacle. The book ran
throu Oh two or three editions. 1t was pub
lished We think, but are not quite sure, at
Paris abont thirty years ago. Finally its au-
thor made the discovery that copies were
being bought up as Giving curiosities,p and
that his unparalleled blunders were causing
great amusement As the Senior himself
would have put it, she laughs at my nose,
be jest by me-"
Someone has secured this cEetd oeuyre and
reprinted selections from it. A reproduc-
ton in this instance loses good deal in
flavor, for the quaint little original with its
odd Portuguese equivalents and phonetic
spelling was unique. In its present form,
however, it is well worth having. We quote
English equivalents of Portuguese proverbs
as rendered by the author: "He is beggar
as church rat )" keep the chestnut Of the
fire with the cat foot" she is not SO devil
as he is black "There is not any ruler
without exception"
A Pook about Roses. How to Grow and
Show Them. By S. Reynolds Hole. New
York: William 81 Gotlsberger; Portland:
Lorlng, Short & Harmon) This little pam
phlet would delight the heart of George
Bancroft. Not because it has much to do
with the history of the United States--we
leave such romanticism to York and Lam
caster-but because it tells of roses, and
Mr.. Bancroft is, as all his friends know, an
enthusiast upon the subject. Any rose dew

instruction, and yet its author has succeed

The terrible restitution of family OF hf-
teen Irish immigrants, who had been Has-
sistedp by British benevolence TO emigiate,
or In other words. had been hustled out Of
their native and, turned adrift upon an
alien soil to beg, starve or steal, has
come to light at North Adams, Massachu-
sets. and has promptly evoked that true
charity which Americans, rugged and shrewd
as their polished, plausible cousins call
them, have ever uppermost in their manly
breasts. Only the logic of Lucifer himself
could clothe with the mantle of miscalled
which makes miserable family pauper out
casts among strangers, instead of poverty
pensioners among their kith and kin. If
the United States should try to ship its
shiftless and criminal specimens to British
shores, the NANCY old lion would roar and
growl to an extent that all the tail twisting
of Richlieu Robinson never provoked.
THE payment by the United States gov
eminent of Sl25,000 to Fitz Hugh Lee, son
of General Robert L. Lee, an account of the
Arlington estate is a circumstance worthy
of note, for it has few parallels in history.
There is probably not another government
in the world by which such payment
would have been made under the same con-
ditions. The Federal government would
have been amply justified in confscating the
estates of General Lee on account of the
part he took in the civil war. Instead OF
doing so, it merely sold the Arlington prop
erty for back taxes, and nov it is paying
over the difference to which under the law
the owner of the property is entitled. The
Transaction represents triumph at once OF
law and of national generosity.

Douglas. Boston: Lee & Shepard; New

Loring, Short e Harmony. Miss Douglass
admirers are host and the young people
who have not read the Kath:e Stories will
doubtless welcome this volume There are
persons who have ample leisure for very long
conversations on very rifiing subjects, and
readers who like narratives that ''are
long time passing to given point and
school girls who ought to be reading the
English classics-if they will take another
standard and cling to novels-might do
worse than occupy themselves with $50 pages

A fashionable Sufferer. By Augustus
Hoppin. Illustrated by the Author. (Bos-
ton: Houghton, Mitilm & Co.; Portland:
Loring, Short & Harmony. A delicate bind
ing of soft red shades decorated with spray
of apple blossoms is the pretty cover to Mr.,
Hoppinss last book. The story is put in
the form of a comedy-the writer, however,
stating that he shall be bound by no dramat-
ic r es The heroine is 'sThe beautiful N.
E.. a nervous exhaustionist and modern in
valid.' The sketch would hardly possess
the charm that it undoubtedly has but for
the authors illustrations. Hoppin's Cupids,
with their big heads and unsteady little legs,
their dimples and downy wings, are capt.
vating-and here they are, blowing heart
bubbles, winding wedding garlands and be-
having generally as cherubs should. We can
assure the "hook'' public that binding and
illustra lion make of A Fashionable Sufferer
very decorative affair, and we leave to
them the discovery of certain common-sense
doctrines aud lessons inculcated in the text.

Alice; or The Wages of Sin. A Novel.
BYE w. Pangborn. New York; Charles
Dillingham;; Portland: Loring, Short & Har-
mon.l The author of this short story has
sketched plot as revolving as that OF Gdi-
pus Tyrannus, and located it among the
most commonplace of scenes and person
ages. Tue result is far from edifying. In
the preface he says ''Should there be found
IN Its pages, any warm tints, any cheering or
amusing passages etc. This Is disappoint-
ing. The writer holds out hopes TO the
reader only to blight them, for the tale is
one continued wall over a series of impro5-
able, lugubrious, shocking portrayals of SIN
and suffering. The author has, however.
shown himself above criticism by quoting
from Lothian, Tomorrow the critics will
commence. You know who the critics are?
The men who have failed in literature and
art.n Yes, it is true, we hare failed in this
instance to discover any redeeming features
in the work before us.

Ia the Shadow of the Pyrenees. From
Basque-Land to Carcasonne. By Marvin r
Vincent, D. D. New York: Charles Scrib-
ner's Sons; Portland: Loring, Short & Har-
monl. DR.. Vincent's book is very attractive
in every respect. 1t is prettily bound, print
ed in clear type on heavy paper, and beauti-
fully illustrated with etchings by SmiIlie,
Clifford and Yale. 1t contains four maps
the first of Bayonne-Biarritz and Cambo;
the others of Guipsuzcoa, San Sebastian and
Carcasonne. In making his work interest
ing DR.. Vincent has succeeded better than
most of the writers of modern travel He is
never dull or prosy, but describes brightly
the places and people he has seen, giving us
bits of local history and legend wherever it
seems desirable, and transcribing his own
impressions in an agreeable and informal
manner. Having gone little off the usual
line of the tourist, the author introduces us
to 'sfresh fields. of which we have hereto
fore had only occasional glimpses. The
chapters upon The Basques, Anget, and
Carcasonne are of special interest, and there
is not page in the whole volume that we
would willingly dispense with.
