SAM LOVEL'S CAMPS. By Rowland E. Robinson. In this sequel to "Uncle Lisha's Shop" are related the adventures of Uncle Lisha's friends under bark and canvass. Sam Lovel and Antoine, the Canadian trapper, start on a trapping expedition in the fall after Uncle's departure for his new home in the West. The story of their camps on the Slang and on the lake is told largely in that dialect of Vermont with which the readers of Mr. Robinson's former book are already acquainted. Mingled with it is Antoine's wonderful patois, which turns india-rubber into "jim rubbit" and noise into "nowse."-Forest and Stream Pub. Co., N. Y. THE SELF: WHAT IS IT? By J. S. Malone. -The author's main proposition is that "sensibility is mind, and that mind is sensibility." He discusses the subject under two headings: Pt. I. Sensibility, Pt. II. Intelligence. Under the former heading are grouped four chapters: Happiness is Predicable of Sensibility; Causal Energy is Predicable of Sensibility; Responsibility is Predicable of Sensibility, and a conclusion. Pt. II. contains: All the Objects of Intelligence Divided into Two Great Classes; Solution of Contradictions; Intuitive or Sense Cognition; Discursive or Intellectual Cognition, A Notice of Kant's Doctrines, and Fragments. -John P. Morton & Co., Louisville, Ky., .75. THE STORY OF MEXICO. By Susan Hale. "The Story of the Nations."-A large amount of time has evidently been spent by the author in tracing the history and legends of the early inhabitants of Mexico, of the tribes which have been until recently unheard of, and which may almost be ranged under the category "prehistoric." The book wins greatly in value by this treatment, and not the least interesting part of the work are the pages which treat of the Toltecs and their traditions, of Mound builders, the Mexican Noah, and the universal fable of the deluge. The book is fully illustrated.— Putnam, 1.50. THROUGH THE HEART OF ASIA OVER THE PAMIR TO INDIA. By Gabriel Bonvalot. Translated from the French by C. B. Pitman. With 250 Illustrations by Albert Pépin.-The author and his companion declare in the introduction that they "were anxious, by means of a careful examination of the land and its inhabitants, to penetrate into the past of Asia, and to shed as much light as possible upon its history with the torch of geography. We wanted to see certain things in order to understand them better, and to ascertain how, in analogous circumstances, the men of the past, whose doings now surprise us, acted."-Armstrong & Son, 2 vols., 10.50. TOILERS OF BABYLON. By B. L. Farjeon.Val Manners, who has risen from abject poverty to great wealth by his indomitable energy and untiring toil, has made ambitious plans for his son Kingsley. On his return from a businesstrip to Russia Mr. Manning receives information that his son has secretly been married to a penniless young girl, and, the report says, a dangerous adventuress. Kingsley remains true to his wife and is thrust from the paternal home by his disappointed father. He courageously begins the task of providing a home for his wife in London and makes the acquaintance of the "Toilers of Babylon."-Harper's, .40. TOM BROWN AT RUGBY. By an old Boy. Edited by Clara Weaver Robinson. "Classics for Children."-This edition of Tom Brown has been plentifully provided with notes for children in the grammar school, and a few passages have heen omitted from the original text, as the editor believed that the book will thus be better adapted for the use of American schoolboys. An index to the notes is appended to the book, which contains also a short sketch of the author, Thomas Hughes, of his early home in Uffington, Berkshire, and of his part in public life in England.-Ginn & Co., .60. 'TWIXT LOVE AND LAW. By Annie Jenness Miller. Margaret Blaine, a very rich young girl, meets Alexander Yandell too late. He is "yoked" to a woman who does not understand him and the only link between them are their numerous progeny. Yandell begins to travel with his eldest boy, and during his absence all the other children perish in a railroad accident, while Mrs. Yandell is dangerously injured. Margaret feels morally guilty of the accident which came so near removing the obstacle to her happiness, and goes to nurse Mrs. Yandell. Shortly afterwards the latter accuses her husband of attempting to murder her.-Belford, Clarke, .30. THE WEAKER VESSEL. By David Christie Murray.-John Denham, who is studying human nature in London, makes the acquaintance of George Dolmer Delamere, Esq., an aesthete, who invites him to dinner. Denham accepts, but is warned by his friend Pole against the sham culture and admiration for art which distinguish that gentleman's circle. Denham goes and makes the acquaintance of Miss Delamere, his host's daughter, a remarkably handsome young lady, who enquires with great interest after Pole. Denham shortly afterward accidently discovers the secret of Pole's life, and sees therein a valid reason for the latter's refusal to call on Miss Delamere.-Harper's, .50. Latest French Books. CHANT DE NOCES. Par Henry Gréville.—On the morning after his marriage to Albine Frédel, the daughter of a rich Parisian merchant, Felix Armor composes a Chant de Noces for his wife. Albine cherishes the music, which is undoubtedly Armor's masterpiece, very highly, and makes him promise not to publish it before their death, but as he is putting the finishing touches to his first opera, Armor perceives that the great aria for tenor is unsatisfactory, and at last replaces it with his wife's Chant de Noces. The opera succeeds and Albine's song is soon on the lips of tout Paris. The happiness of the young couple, however, is daily more threatened with ruin by Armor's irregularities, which he even does not take the trouble to hide from the world. The birth of his child does not influence him, and at last the inevitable rupture occurs.-Brentano's, 1.25. Par CONTES JUIFS. RÉCITS DE FAMILLE. Sacher Masoch.-With the prejudice that once existed against the Jews, disappear also many of their traditions, legends and superstitions. As the Jew more identifies himself with the life of the nation in whose midst he has lived so long an outcast, he lays off his peculiarities, and the old Jewish life with its religious rites and poetic faithfulness to the ancient laws becomes a thing of the past. Sacher Masoch has undertaken to preserve these disappearing customs in a volume of Jewish tales, gathered from different countries: Galicia, Russia, Turkey, Germany, Danemark, Hungaria, Jerusalem, Belgium, Bohemia, Spain, Alsace, England, Italy, Poland, Holland, Roumelia, Austria, Russia, Sweden, Croatia, Switzerland, and France have contributed short stories, which crystallize the customs of the old Jews, such as are still to be found in the country, far from the modernizing influences of the large cities. Many of these narratives are equal in plot and meaning to the best work in the Arabian Nights, and all reflect so perfectly the life of the classes depicted that the volume becomes a valuable contribution to Hebrew folk-lore. The 27 full-page plates by Gérardin, Alphonse and Emile Lévy, Henry Lévy, Edouard Loevy, Schlesinger, Vogel and Worms, are works of art in every sense of that expression, and the numerous illustrations scattered through the text reflect to perfection the spirit of the tales they adorn. A tastefully illustrated cover, with the head of a rabbi perusing the Koran, and the title in pseudoHebrew characters, completes the work.Brentano's, 10.00. MÉMOIRES D'UN ROYALISTE. Par le Comte de Falloux.-The memoirs of the Count de Falloux cover the period from the year 1828 till the year 1873, and give a complete review of history in France during that time. The Restauration, the July Revolution, the Coup d'Etat, and the Royalist party in its relation to Napoleon's crime, the war in Italy, the Crimean war, and the catastrophe of 1870-71 are related and their influence shown, while the doings of the Royalist party, and travels in Austria, Italy, Russia and England, studies in literature and numerous other subjects are treated as well, the whole making a many sided review of French life during the greater part of this century. In an introductory chapter he describes his early youth, education, etc. Two portraits of the author accompany the memoirs, which have been edited by Georges de Blois.-Brentano's, 5.60. NORINE. By Ferdinand Fabre.-In a letter to the Reverend Prosper Arribas, his old friend and companion, the author, or rather the nephew of the former priest of Rocaillet, recalls the days of his youth, and tells the story Norine Jalaguier and of Justin Lebasset, who is suspected of theft. Years afterward he finds Norine and her husband in Paris, and is present at the latter's death-bed. The volume further contains: Cathinelle, which is dedicated to Paul Arène, Le R. P. Columban, and Souvenir Intime, in which Mr. Fabre gives his reminiscences of Alexander Dumas the elder, and tells of his witnessing the premiere of the great author's la Conscience. The last part of this Souvenir Intime contains a tribute to Dumas, written on the 4th of November, 1883, the day of the unveiling of his statue in Paris.-Brentano's, 1.25.
