A Grammar Of The Latin language: For
ne Use Of Schools and Colleges. With
Exercises and Vocabularies. BY WILL
LIAM BINGHAM, 4. VI author Of "Bing-
hams Latin Reader" Bngham's Cae-
sar," and "Bingham's English Gram
mar" Revised and in great part
rewritten by w. GORDON McCABE, A.
NJ, Head Master OF the University
school. Petersburg. Va. Philadelphia:
+. ii. BUTLER n co. Price. Sl.OS for
specimen copies.
We claim TO have been among the first to
recognize BINGHAM's Latin Grammar as the
best, and TO condemn his English grammar.
But we only recognized what the public
recognized. The former has now a wide rep
utation. 1t is in general Use in Richmond
i'm the public schools, and in a number OF
private schools. Mr.. McCABE, the editor OF
the new edition, like DR.. GILDERSLEEvE,
is so thoroughly familiar with the Latin
language that when he begins to write about
it he hardly knows where to stop. The
new book is, we judge from a cursory eX-
animation. widely different from the old
book, and yet we recognize familiar fea-
lures on page after page. Mr.. McCABE is
the man Of all men to whom ought 10 have
been assigned the task which he has per-
formed in preparing revised and improved
edition of BINGHAM's Latin Grammar.

thousand. The Dispatch is only hedging.

a funeral a short distance from the scene OF
the accident and immediately repaired to

Men with the flesh hanging IN shred'

living on the grass or among the runs.
one man was found dead, MS skull crush

A Tribune" Falsehood.

1t amazed us to read In yesterdays New
York Tribune the following:
"Dispaiehes yesterday stated that a
meeting In West Virginia was assailed and
nearly broken up by Democratic mob.
The fashionable southern modes, 1t seems,
are TO be employed in that State also. APP
parently the Democrats want a fight. II
they cannot carry southern State IN any
other way, they mean 20 carry it by muir
der. We shall see-and the country will
know"
Exactly the reverse Of that statement Is
the truth. A crowd broke up a meeting
that was being addressed by Democratic
negroes. This was done in Wheeling.
The Democratic negro speakers had to
cali upon the police for protection.
