procured a reorganization of the Medical Bureau; distributed medical and surgical monographs which were written at its suggestion; organized soldiers' homes and hospital steamers; established supply depots; brought to its assistance the aid and sympathy of women; instituted Aid Societies; established field relief corps and feeding stations for the sick and disabled, &c. &c.

But to state all which its wisdom, its judgment, its energy, accomplished, would be to transcribe the whole volume; to it therefore we refer the reader, who will find in it one of the brightest pages in the history of the civilization and humanity of the nineteenth century. It is most admirably written. The Principles and Practice of Obstetrics. By Gunning S. Bedford, A. M., M. D., Professor of Obstetrics, &c. in the University of New York. Illustrated by four colored lithographic plates and ninety-nine wood engravings. Third edition, carefully revised and enlarged. pp. xxxii., 743. New York: William Wood & Co.

This admirable treatise has passed to a third edition, demonstrating the foresight of those who predicted for it a foremost place among the text-books upon this subject. No greater praise could be bestowed upon the work, when the field was pre-occupied by so many writers of great eminence. We heartily recommend it to all who wish to obtain a knowledge of obstetrics.

The Science and Practice of Medicine. By Wm. Aikin, M. D., Edin., Professor of Pathology in the Army Medical School, &c. &c. In two volumes. Vol. 1. From the Fourth London edition, with additions by Meredith Clymer, M. D., &c. &c. pp. 955. Philadelphia: Lindsay & Blakiston.

The author of this work has dedicated it especially to the students of medicine. The following subjects have been treated, for the first time, in a treatise upon practice. The department of medical or noso-geography, or the conditions by which health and disease are distributed over the globe, and the thermometry of disease, with diagrams illustrative of the typical ranges of temperature, particularly in febrile diseases. No greater proof can be offered of the value of the work and the favor with which it has been received in Great Britain, than the fact that two large editions, the second and the third, were exhausted in one year. This edition has been submitted by the author to a careful revision, and new matter has been added. The American editor disclaims any attempt at having edited the work, but has only made a few additions, and added some notes where it was thought necessary. The volume is a valuable contribution to medical science, and we recommend it not only to the particular attention of those to whom it is especially dedicated, but to the profession generally.

notices of new remedies lately introduced into practice. An index of diseases is added with reference to the remedies found most useful in their treatment. A Manual of Auscultation and Percussion. By M. Barth and M. Henri Roger. Translated from the sixth French edition. pp. 161. Philadelphia: Lindsay & Blakiston.

This appears to be an admirable compend upon the subject of auscultation and percussion, and is well adapted to the purposes of a hand-book. Too much praise cannot be given to the publishers for the manner in which their medical works are published. The paper, typography, and binding are excellent.

JUVENILE.

Young Calvin in Paris, and the Little Flock that he
Fed. pp. 166.

Each of these volumes, published by the Presbyterian Board of Publication, Philadelphia, has been prepared by Rev. Wm. M. Blackburn, of Trenton, N. J., the materials being chiefly drawn from D'Aubigné. The design is to set forth the facts in the early life of Calvin in a manner that may interest the youth of Sabbath-schools and Bibleclasses. The "College Days" includes the period when Calvin studied law and theology at Orleans, Bourges, and Paris, extending until he was twenty years of age.

Allein, Vane, Fox, Baxter, Howe, Manton, and other leading non-conformists of the period, figure in the narrative, which will impart a great deal of information not only to youth but to many children of

a larger growth.

Philadelphia: to the "Search for Sea-Shells," which will be found Lindsay & Blakiston. a pleasant introduction to the department of natural history to which it relates, though we do not see the good taste of dragging slavery, the North and the South, and that sort of thing, into an introduction to conchology.

The principal object of the author has been to collect "within a small compass the opinions and experience of the most eminent writers of modern times, as to the real value of the articles of the Materia Medica in the treatment of disease." This treatise will be found an admirable supplement to all the other works upon Materia Medica, in which There are ten papers here, all written in a spirited therapeutics are subordinated to the botanical and style, and just such as cannot fail to please the chemical characteristics of the various substances little folks. The red-letter days are New Year's treated of. This edition contains all the prepara- day, Washington's birthday, May day, Thankstions of the new British Pharmacopoeia, as well as giving day, Christmas, etc..

It has been extensively used, and is indeed a very convenient and servicable compend.

The Authorship of Shakspeare. By Nathaniel Holmes. pp. xvi., 601. New York: Hurd & Houghton.

The exact position of this volume in the Shakspeare controversy is easily stated. In January,

Lindsay & Blakiston.

1856, Miss Delia Bacon published an article in "Putnam's Magazine" announcing her theory of the participation of Lord Bacon in the writing of the plays of Shakspeare. Mr. Holmes took up the theory and began to analyze and collect the facts which in his opinion imparted verisimilitude to it. Miss Bacon's " Philosophy of the Plays of Shakspeare Unfolded," appeared in 1857, but as the critics were not satisfied with her reasoning, Mr. Holmes thought that by continuing the investigation he could win favor for the view he had espoused. His results are now given to the world, and he thinks he has demonstrated that "Bacon's prose is Shakspearian poetry, and Shakspeare's poetry deal of enthusiasm, and even those who repudiate is Baconian prose." Our author writes with a great his doctrine will be entertained by the persistency and vivacity with which he champions it.

Ars Rhetorica. Auctore R. P. Martino Du Cygne, Societatis Jesu. Editio Secunda Americana, in usum Collegii Georgiopolitani S. J. pp. 178. Baltimori: Typis Joannis Murphy, et soc. There are several Roman Catholic Colleges in the country, in which the Latin is to a great extent a spoken language, especially with the graduating class. In such institutions lectures and text books in Latin are used, and among the latter we have in the present volume a compend in that language, of the instruction in rhetoric given in Georgetown College. The subject is treated in rather a scholastic style as compared with modern educational works, but the method is orderly and the divisions and subdivisions are clear and distinct. It consists of three books, the first treating of Invention, the second of Disposition or orderly arrangement, and the third of Elocution. Constant reference is made to Quintilian and Cicero, and an appendix of more than forty pages contains illustrations from American orators.
