The author has blended the elements of history, of tradition, and of imagination, in his powerful narrative, with admirable skill, showing an equally consummate command of the resources of knowledge and the gift of invention.-New York Tribune.

In a brief notice it is impossible to touch upon, much less to do justice to, the many points of beauty, power, and pathos with which the book abounds. It can not but

1 50 1.00

give pleasure whenever it is read, and must cause astonishment that one absorbed in the common-place, every-day, business-like duties of the daily editor, can still retain so much that is poetic, so much that is beautiful, and so much that is imaginative, in spite of cares that ordinarily put fancy to flight and make sentiment ridiculous.-C cinnati Commercial.

HATCH. WAR OF 1812 IN THE NORTHWEST. A Chapter of the History of the War of 1812 in the Northwest. Embracing the Surrender of the Northwestern Army and Fort, at Detroit, August 16, 1813; with a Description and Biographical Sketch of the celebrated Indian Chief, Tecumseh. By Colonel WILLIAM STANLEY HATCH, Acting Assistant Quartermaster-General of that Army. 18mo. Sheep.

A new chapter of an old history. An old man's story, told while fighting his battles over again, concerning the operations of the Northwestern army. As the author was acting assistant quartermaster-general of the army, and in close communication with the various officers in command, his narrative possesses more than ordinary interest. Nearly one-half of this volume is occupied with an elaborate memoir of Tecumseh, evidently prepared with unusual

1 25

advantages for securing accuracy of information, and with great care; and this is not, in our estimation, the least important portion of the volume.-Historical Magazine.

This unpretending little volume is quite an interesting addition to the history of the events referred to. It deals mainly with the operations of General Hull, and his surrender, and gives additional facts in regard to the character and death of Tecumseh.N. E. Hist. and Gen. Register.

Mr. J. Q.

The volume is published especially with reference to the political campaign, but is, nevertheless, a correct biography, written in a spirit of entire fairness, and its selection from Governor Hayes' speeches are very judiciously chosen.-New York Post.

HENSHALL. BOOK OF THE BLACK BASS. Comprising its Complete Scientific and Life History, together with a Practical Treatise on Angling and Fly-Fishing, with a Full Account of Tools, Implements, and Tackle. By Dr. JAMES A. HENSHALL. Illustrated: 12mo. Cloth. 3 00

Dr. J. A. Henshall's "Book of the Black Bass" will, doubtless, meet the highest expectation of those who have so long and anxiously awaited its appearance. It is a work evidently written con amore, by one who has made black bass a special study for many years, and the ripe fruits of his research are displayed in the volume just is sued. It will take rank as the undisputed authority on the subject of which it treats, and fills a niche too long vacant in the literature of field and flood. As a practical treatise on black bass, and the mode of capture, style of tackle, and all that pertains to the subject, the book may be safely recommended to the angling fraternity of America. -Turf, Field and Farm.

Dr. Henshall has given the angler a book which, as the oystermen say, is full "measure and solid meat."

The angling portion of the book is, without doubt, the best thing ever written upon these fishes. It is clear, and covers the whole ground of the different modes of fishing, and is accompanied by cuts of the manner of holding the rod, castings, and diagrams of the mode of throwing the fly that it seems to us as if the merest tyro could soon become an expert by carefully reading this book and following its instructions. Not only is it a book for the beginner, but it is one that no angler can afford to do without.

A great charm in the book is the author's freedom from conventionality, and from the echoing of sentiments which have become in sort orthodox opinions of angling writers. Taking it as a whole, we can not speak too highly of it.-Forest and Stream.

HENSHALL. MORE ABOUT THE BLACK BASS. Being a Supplement to the Book of the Black Bass."

HENSHALL. CAMPING AND CRUISING IN FLORIDA. By DR. JAMES A. HENSHALL, Author of "The Book of the Black Bass." Profusely illustrated. 12mo.

1.50

It contains Graphic Sketches of Camping, Sailing, Fishing, and Hunting in the Wonderland of Southern Florida, embodying Faithful Descriptions of its Natural Features, Scenery, and Climate; Interesting and Amusing Experiences with its Settlers, "Crackers," and Indians; Pleasing and Instructive Accounts of its Animals, Birds, Fishes, and Reptiles, and Reliable Information regarding its Soil and Products; being a full account of the Perils and Pleasures, Joys and Tribulations of a Life in the Wilds and on the Waters of Florida, as described by a Naturalist, Yachtman, Sportsman, and Physician.

For summer reading it would be difficult to find a more attractive book than Dr. Henshall's latest work, "Camping and Cruising in Florida." It is refreshing and breezy as the zephyrs from the sea which temper the heat of August. Without being stilted or pedantic the book gives considerable new information concerning the land of flowers and the fishing of that region in a style to attract the general reader, while to the true Waltonian it unfolds a wealth of pleasure.-Turf, Field, and Farm.

The incidents and scenes described, while strictly authentic, are woven into artistic pictures by toning down or adding a bit of color here and there. The writer has a keen sense of the humorous and gets the best and most possible out of the quaint surroundings. Many of the details, which are entered into with great care, are especially valuable to those seeking a new home in the South.-Farm, Field, and Fireside.

This work furnishes us with an entertaining and amusing account of two winters spent in Florida. The good doctor seems to have had amongst his patients a number of young men whose graves were being dug slowly but surely by the frying-pan." Knowing that plain diet, pure air, bright sunshine, and varied exercise would work wonders, he induced four of them to accompany him on what proved to be a thoroughly rough but most enjoyable trip. How they sailed down the rivers and lakes and the open sea; how they fished and hunted, and what varied and amusing adventures they met with in their encounters with alligators, rattlesnakes, and panthers; what monstrous fishes they caught, and what hairbreadth escapes they had, would take too much of our space to describe. We must content ourselves with saying that the book is a very readable one from beginning to end.-London Fishing Gazette.

HANOVER. A PRACTICAL TREATISE ON THE LAW OF HORSES. Embracing the Law of Bargain, Sale, and Warranty of Horses and other Live Stock; the Rule as to Unsoundness and Vice, and the Responsibility of the Proprietors of Livery, Auction, and Sale Stables, Innkeepers, Veterinary Surgeons, and Farriers, Carriers, etc. Second edition, revised and enlarged. By M. D. HANOVER. 8vo. Law sheep. 4.00

In this work, the author has chiefly sought to investigate the principles which constitute the law of warranty in the sale of horses, and to present them in a clear and concise form.

Contracts, frauds, carriers, negligence, and other branches of the law have also been treated of, so far as they relate to horses and other live stock. The rule as to unsoundness and vice in horses, and the responsibility of innkeepers, livery-stable keepers, and others having the care of horses, have been carefully presented.

The aim of the author has been to afford assistance to the lawyer, and at the same time to enable the unprofessional reader to gain a general acquaintance with the law on the subject. He has also given full notes of the decisions of the American and English courts.

Such a work as this, in which the law re- derstand, has long been needed; and we belating to live stock is carefully collated and lieve this work will be generally sought arranged, and presented in a popular form after by all who deal in this description of which non-professional readers could un- property.-National Live Stock Journal.
