Mr.. Dewitt @. Sprague, of this city, has pre-
pared for publication this fall volume of his
poems, entitled ''Heros and other Rhymes
The book will be illustrated.
''The Birth of the Republic" by Mr. Daniel
r. Goodloe, for many years a resident of this
city, is very full and satisfactory compilation
of Revolutionary papers, and perhaps the mos
complete that has ever been made. 1t contains
not merely all the more important addresses
declarations and resolves of the Continental
Congress, the Congress of the Confederation
and of the Congresses" Conventions, and As
semblies of the original Thirteen Colonies, but
all such papers and proceedings of the coun
ties, cities, and towns. A leading feature Of
the work is the presentation of a more ex
haustive account of the resistance of the peo
pie to the stamp act than can be found else
where in any one volume. What the general
historians have described, in their own Ian
guage. is here presented in that of the actors
in the momentous events. The work contains
also, an account of the formation of the con.
stitution and the Inauguration of Washington
A full index to subjects and to names renders
every part of the work accessible to the reader
without turning over an indefinite number Of
pages. a
