ties of an encyclopedia and a dictionary in one 
publication, guaranteed to be completed in two 
years from Its inception, ami to cost leas than 
a quarter the price of tlm cheapest encyclopedia 
now before ihe public, is indeed an ambitious 
undertaking. But it is progressing well, as the 
thirty weekly numbers, of eight quarto pages 
each, fully attest. Two hundred and fifty num¬ 
bers, at tea cents per number, comprise the 
work. It is ably edited, profusely Illustrated, 
and well printed on fine paper. We are especially 
pleased to see that most spuoo Is given to practi¬

If carries; out with the same care and conscien¬

The Hand Machine will sow 50 acres of wheat, In

and the work is done in the most perfect manner. 
Hundreds of letters from all parts of the country 
speak it* praise. 
JuflKPH Harris, author of “Walks and Talks" 
in American Agriculturist, said, in a letter to a 
friend, dated .1 nl> X, lKi','.l: “ I like Die Culmon Broad¬ 
cast Heed Sower very much indeed, 1 sowed all my 
clover seed wit h It, and It certainly saves a great deal 
of work. I tiavo no doubt it, sows perfectly even, at 
least, more evenly than it CUn be sown by hand.” 
The following Is from one of the Editors of the 
rural New-Yorker ; 
Little Falls, N. Y., July 8,18®. 
D. II. Goodkll— Dear Sir: The Broadcast Seed 
Sower you sent me last spring gave good satisfac¬ 
tion. It sows evenly and rapidly. For small seeds, 
so far as I tested, it seem* to he admirable. II is a 
very handy machine, and farmers, I think, cannot 
fail to be pluased with It. Very truly yours,

«W]p fltauf) Mr-' Klinor. (Now York: Harper 
& Bro there.)—Anonymously put fort h, this story 
of American life deserves at; acknowledgment 
of authorship. It is gracefully written, and in 
its naturalness Is, indeed, charming. It Isa very 
human .story; the men and women who carry on 
Its easy act ton from beginning tornd.are every¬ 
day persona, with the foibles common to hu¬ 
manity. Ono character, — “Mrs. Pi put, the 
writer,"—sec-maoverdrawn ; but is id any rate a 
good burleuqtic on a class happily not frequent . 
Seme prudish people may object to the incident 
upon which the simple plot turns, and to the two 
leading characters, whose erring made that inci¬ 
dent possible; yet it seem* to us the noble wo¬ 
manliness which is called out I hereby, in “my 
daughter Elinor," must fully atone, even in 
the minds of such. We could name other ob¬ 
jections to the story which wo think bettor 
grounded; but they are set aside by t In; lesson of 
rare generosity on Die part of woman to her 
kind that is taught, and that, much as the fact 
is to be lamented, still needs to lie learned.

Slg-hts anil Sensations in Pi-ancey Herman y 
anil Swliterlanel. (New York : Harper A Broth¬ 
ers.) — Although this 12 - mo., by Edward 
Gould Buffum, bears a somewhat rambling 
title, it is mainly devoted to life and .scenes in 
France, especially in Paris. Mr. B. was for 
many - years a journalist in the fur West, and at 
the time of his death, a few months since, was, 
as he had long been, the chief foreign corres¬ 
pondent of one of our leading dailies. With the 
training of a journalist, therefore, he snw quick¬ 
ly, and dashed oil his impressions of ueh obser¬ 
vations in a crisp, readable style, which if. rarely 
dull. Those posthumous sketches are lively, and 
being more devoted to specialties than those 
found in books of travel commonly, have quite 
a degree of freshness about them.

DIPHTHERIA. — Trask's Ointment lias been

success, for the prevention, rebel' and cure of that

A rtnocui.ar microscope of considerable value 
which was stolen from the laboratory of the 
Bowdoin Medical School at Brunswick, about 
throe years ago, was reoently found in the pos¬ 
session of a young Portland physician, who at 
the Bine the Instrument, was taken was a stu¬ 
dent in the school. Upon being arrested, it is 
said, ho confessed and gave bonds for appear¬ 
ance for trial, but ho lnia since forfeited his bail 
aud disappeared. 
The celebrated papers of Governor Arthur St. 
Clair, numbering 2,000 original manuscripts, and 
embracing ail his official correspondence when 
he was Governor of the Northwestern Territory, 
manuscript letters from General Washington 
and all other prominent men of tin* Revolution¬ 
ary War, never yet made public, m e Offered for 
sale in Cincinnati during Iho first week ol' Au¬ 
gust. The effort which has been making for 
some time to get the documents for the State of 
Ohio has not yet met with success. 
A whiter in the Indianapolis Mirror states 
that among t he parishioners of Dr. Bellows, at 
one time, was a family by the name of Spear. 
They brought a son to the font to be christened, 
and when, as is customary. Dr. Bellows leaned 
over and asked, “ What name ?“ t lie answer was, 
“ Shaket lie Doctor was startled, but, upon 1 he 
name being repeated, lifted the baptismal water 
in his hand,and sprinkled it on the infant to the 
sound of “Shako.” “ Whatever," he asked the 
parents afterwards, “ possessed you to give your 
child snob a name V” “‘Hhukespoar.’ Don't you 
see—with Spear and Shake it makes Die Chris¬ 
tian name of Shakespeare." 
A remarkable phenomena was witnessed not 
Jong since by the inhabitants of the borders of 
the Caspian Sea. This bugo salt lake is dotted 
with numerous islands which produce yearly a 
large quantity of naphtha, and it is no uncom¬ 
mon occurrence for fires to break out in the 
works and burn for many days before they can 
lie extinguished. Sotno weeks ago, owing to some 
subtomuoous disturbances, enormous quantities 
of this iullaminable Substance were projected 
from the naphtha wells, and spread over the 
entire, surface of the water, and becoming 
ignited, notwithstanding every precaution, con¬ 
verted the whole sea into the semblance of a 
gigantic flaming punch bowl, many thousands 
of square miles in extent. The fire burnt itself 
out. in about forty-eight hours, leaving Ihe sur¬ 
face strewed with the dead bodies of Innumera¬ 
ble fishes. Herodotus mentions a tradition that 
the same phenomenon was once before observed 
by the shores of the Caspian Sea. 
Tun Collector of Customs of tlm port of 
Georgetown, some four weeks since received a 
magnificent collection of solid silver articles, in- 
tondod as presents for President Grant, General 
Sherman, ex-Secretary Seward and Mrs. ex- 
President Lincoln. They were sent toihiscoun- 
Iry from Mexico, by Sabos Iturbide, In behalf of 
u modest Mexican, who refused to have his name 
made known, and said that “ in his transport of 
delight at. the abolition of slavery, he was 
prompted to prepare these little tokens for some 
of tho principal actors In that great work." 
President Grant receives a silver coffee set of 
thirty-six pieces and some dressed leopard skins; 
General Sherman, un egg boiler nnd holder; for 
ex-Secrotnry Seward, i hero is no inkstand and 
penholder, most ingeniously contrived, besides a 
call bell, atnl Mrs. Lincoln’s portion of iho lot is 
a heavy card basket, of elegant filagree work, 
with “Sonora Lincoln" inscribed on the inside 
in golden letters. All of the art ieles are of solid 
silver, without any dearth of metal, umj of the 
most beautiful finish and workmanship. Presi¬ 
dent Grant and General Sherman's portions were 
delivered on the 11th of July, and some idea may 
be formed of their value from the fact that tlm 
duty on President Grant’s lot was * 748, and on 
Gen. Sherman's, $104.

United States Naval Academy, Hero adds another 
text-book “ for tho use of colleges and acade¬ 
mies.” In its scope, und general arrangement, 
it differs little from the similar work of Prof. 
Loomis, being perhaps fuller in definition and 
description, and not so complete in illustration. 
It is calculated to be of interest to others than 
students in schools.
