another; and it was while on a visit to Schubert | in gold, silver and colors, with illustrative vignettes that we became acquainted with him. Of course wrought in the borders. To give an idea of the all that could be done for him was done, and amounted to just—nothing. He returned in despair to his parish; and, to put the reality of the apparition to a new test, he spoke to it. It answered. He related this to his friends; they smiled, and said his poetical temperament was carrying him too far. More than one said, "Send your spectre to me; if there be anything in her, I'll find it out." He promised to do so, and kept his promise. Sleep, so long a stranger, revisited his bed; but the next morning, the rash inviter was sure to come, and say, one visit was enough for him, a second such night would drive him frantic. The niece of the clergyman, who was his house-keeper, a good-hearted and religious girl, heard of this, and begged her uncle to send her the apparition; he did it from time to time, to have a night's sleep. The phantom-lady, in all her visits to others, kept silence; no one but the clergyman ever heard her speak; perhaps, because no one else had the courage to speak to her. But what she said to him, he could never be induced to tell. So stood the matter when we were brought into contact with him; as, for aught we know, it stands to this hour. From other sources we have learned that he often passes his night in the open air, to evade the dreaded visitation, unwilling to lay too heavy a tax on the self-sacrificing affections of his niece. At such times, his village-parishioners often lie awake till the dawn, listening with a heart-clutching fear to the unearthly tones which his voice and his guitar conspire to send forth into the shuddering night.

NEW BOOKS AND REPRINTS. SPARKS' WRITINGS OF WASHINGTON. N. York: Harper and Brothers.

The present is the eighth volume of this valuable publication, and contains the correspondence and miscellaneous papers relating to the American revolution. And therein do the noble, benevolent, high-toned and clear-sighted qualities of Washington's mind abundantly appear. Now that the work is published at a price which puts it within the reach of most persons, we do hope this true portraiture of Washington will be closely studied by his country

men.

THE MOST SUPERB GIFT BOOK of the season, that has come to our knowledge, has been prepared, at great outlay of time and money, by Messrs. Wiley & Putnam; and in point of national interest, novelty and external beauty surpasses anything of the kind we have seen from the London press. It is called "Pearls of American Poetry," these pearls being choice selections from the fugitive or occasional pieces of the most prominent among our bards -for instance, the "Excelsior" of Longfellow, Halleck's exquisite stanzas on 66 Love," and bright gems from the writings of Bryant and others. These are printed, most delicately and perfectly, in lithograph German text, on Bristol board, each page being framed by a rich illuminated arabesque border

Evangeline pursuing her rainbow-like lover across the continent, and through life, to the very gates of death, is a picture almost too melancholy for pleasure; but Mr. Longfellow has long since proved his power to draw us as he will, let the subject be what it may. He modestly calls this a tale; and leaves others to decide whether or not it be a poem too. At any rate it is full of poetry-and music, and religion, and all that is pure and good.

CORRESPONDENCE.

GEN. SCOTT.-Should the rumor of an intention to recall Gen. Scott from the scene of his triumphs prove to have any foundation, it will inflict a pang upon all who can sympathize with the indignant swelling of a noble heart, ungratefully treated; and it would be likely to make him the next president, were not Gen. Taylor in the field.

Gen. Scott has been so generally found to be right, that we for one will not believe him in the wrong, till it be proved. Much as we value the reputation of Gen. Worth, it is not of equal importance to that of the commander-in-chief. Besides, a court of inquiry has decided that the subordinate was wrong. Duncan's answer to Gen. Scott's general order, and think he could not expect to escape the arrest, which he deliberately, or passionately, provoked.

We have seen Colonel

It seems that the breach between Gen. Worth and his commander began previous to the battles before Mexico;-and yet how freely, how generously, does he praise Gen. Worth!

A New York writer, some months ago, speaking of Gen. Scott, said, "And if there be a rent in Cæsar's cloak, remember that it covers Cæsar."

Our own affectionate attachment to the character

of Gen. Scott, dates from the time of the trouble about the "sympathizers," and the north-eastern boundary. It was much owing to him that the peace was not broken with England, on that occasion. He has again shown, in his conduct before the city of Mexico, that he preferred the chance of peace, to victory.

To recall Gen. Scott will be a heavy responsibility upon the administration, which will then rightly bear the blame of any future disaster.

PROSPECTUS. This work is conducted in the spirit of Littell's Museum of Foreign Literature, (which was favorably received by the public for twenty years,) but as it is twice as large, and appears so often, we not only give spirit and freshness to it by many things which were excluded by a month's delay, but while thus extending our scope and gathering a greater and more attractive variety, are able so to increase the solid and substantial part of our literary, historical, and political harvest, as fully to satisfy the wants of the American reader.

The elaborate and stately Essays of the Edinburgh, Quarterly, and other Reviews; and Blackwood's noble criticisms on Poetry, his keen political Commentaries, highly wrought Tales, and vivid descriptions of rural and mountain Scenery; and the contributions to Literature, History, and Common Life, by the sagacious Spectator, the sparkling Examiner, the judicious Athenæum, the busy and industrious Literary Gazette, the sensible and comprehensive Britannia, the sober and respectable Christian Observer; these are intermixed with the Military and Naval reminiscences of the United Service, and with the best articles of the Dublin University, New Monthly, Fraser's, Tait's, Ainsworth's, Hood's, and Sporting Mugazines, and of Chambers' admirable Journal. We do not consider it beneath our dignity to borrow wit and wisdom from Punch; and, when we think it good enough, make use of the thunder of The Times. We shall increase our variety by importations from the continent of Europe, and from the new growth of the British colonies.

The steamship has brought Europe, Asia, and Africa, into our neighborhood; and will greatly multiply our connections, as Merchants, Travellers, and Politicians, with all parts of the world; so that much more than ever it

now becomes every intelligent American to be informed of the condition and changes of foreign countries. And this not only because of their nearer connection with ourselves, but because the nations seem to be hastening, through a rapid process of change, to some new state of things, which the merely political prophet cannot compute or foresee.

Geographical Discoveries, the progress of Colonization, (which is extending over the whole world,) and Voyages and Travels, will be favorite matter for our selections; and, in general, we shall systematically and very ully acquaint our readers with the great department of Foreign affairs, without entirely neglecting our own.

While we aspire to make the Living Age desirable to all who wish to keep themselves informed of the rapid progress of the movement-to Statesmen, Divines, Lawyers, and Physicians-to men of business and men of leisure-it is still a stronger object to make it attractive and useful to their Wives and Children. We believe that we can thus do some good in our day and generation: and hope to make the work indispensable in every well-informed family. We say indispensable, because in this day of cheap literature it is not possible to guard against the influx of what is bad in taste and vicious in morals, in any other way than by furnishing a sufficient supply of a healthy character. The mental and moral appetite must be gratified.

We hope that, by "winnowing the wheat from the chaff" by providing abundantly for the imagination, and by a large collection of Biography, Voyages and Travels, History, and more solid matter, we may produce a work which shall be popular, while at the same time it will aspire to raise the standard of public taste.

A Lacedemonian mother, addressing her son going to battle, said " Return living with your shield, or dead upon it."

Xerxes, menacing Leonidas with the overwhelming numbers of his army, said—“ Our arrows will obscure the sun." "Well," replied the Spartan, we shall fight all the better in the shade." Commanders have been remarkable for the ready tact of their improvisations. Cæsar stumbled and fell on landing in Africa. He instantly affected to kiss the soil, and exclaimed-" Africa! I embrace thee."

When the Duke of Montebello, to whom he was tenderly attached, received a mortal wound from a cannon ball, Napoleon, then in the meridian of his imperial glory, rushed to the litter on which the dying hero was stretched, and embracing him, and bedewing his forehead with his tears, uttered these untranslatable words—“Lannes! me reconnais tu ?-c'est Bonaparte! c'est ton ami!"

In the Russian campaign he spirited on his troops by the assurance-" Soldiers! Russia is impelled by fate! Let its destiny be accomplished!"

On the morning of the battle of Moscowa, the sun rose with uncommon splendor in an unclouded firmament-" Behold!" exclaimed Napoleon to his soldiers, "it is the sun of Austerlitz.”

It will be recollected that the battle of Austerlitz was commenced at sunrise, and that on that occasion the sun rose with extraordinary splendor.

At Montereau the guns of a battery near his staff were ineffective, owing to having been ill-pointed. Napoleon dismounted from his charger, and pointed them with his own hands, never losing the skill he acquired as an artillery officer. The grenadiers of his guard did not conceal their terror at seeing To a troop of artillery which had failed in their the cannon balls of the enemy falling around him— duty, he said—" This flag that you have basely" Have no fears for me," he observed, "the ball deserted shall be placed in the Temple of Mars, covered with crape-your corps is disbanded."

audience not highly informed, might easily pass for inspiration. What language it were best to use, what conduct it were best to pursue, and what character it were best to assume on each occasion which presented itself, he appeared to know instantaneously and instinctively, without consideration, and without apparent effort of judgment. He gained his knowledge from no teacher, for he never had a mentor; he gained it not from experience, for he had not years. He had it as a gift. It was a natural instinct. While he captured the pontifical cities, and sent the treasures of art of the Vatican to Paris, he was profoundly rever ential to the pope. Seeking an interview with the Archduke Charles, the lieutenant of artillery sprung from the people, met the descendant of the Cæsars with all the pride of an equal, and all the elevated courtesy of a high-born chevalier. He enforced discipline, honored the arts and sciences, protected religion and property, and respected age and sex. In the city he sacked, he put sentinels at the church doors to prevent the desecration of the altar. To set the example of respect for divine things, he commanded his marshals with the staffs to attend mass. He managed opinion, and twined popular prejudice to the purposes of power. In Egypt, he would wear the turban and quote the Koran. His genius for administration was no way inferior to his genius for conquest. He could not brook a superior, even when his rank and position were subordinate.

In his first Italian campaign, as the general of the Directory, he treated, not in the name of the directors, but in the name of Bonaparte. He was not merely commander-in-chief of the army-he was its master; and the army felt this, and the republican tacitly acknowledged it. The oldest generals quailed under the eagle-eye of this youth of five-and-twenty.

His eloquence of the field has no example in

ancient or modern times. His words are not the words of a mortal. They are the announcements of an oracle. It is not to the enemies that are opposed to him that he speaks, nor do his words refer to the country he invades. He addresses Europe, and speaks of the world. If he designates the army he leads, it is THE GRAND ARMY! If he refers to the nation he represents, it is THE (GREAT NATION! He blots empires from the map with the dash of his pen, and dots down new kingdoms with the hilt of his sword. He pronounces

the fate of dynasties amidst thunder and lightning. His voice is the voice of destiny!

other wishes, other ideas, other sentiments-nay, even other prejudices-have grown up. In the days of Napoleon's splendor, military renown was all in all. The revolution had swept away all political and almost all geographical landmarks. An undefined future presented itself to all minds. The marvellous achievements of the French army itself, led by a boy on the plains, illustrated in other days by Roman glory, heated all imaginations to a point which enabled them to admire what may seem to border on bombast in the present prevalence of the intellectual over the imaginative, and of the practical over the poetical.

Let the reader, then, try to transport himself back to the exciting scenes amidst which Napoleon acted and spoke.

At six-and-twenty he superseded Scherer in the command of the army of Italy, surrounded with disasters, oppressed with despair, and utterly destitute of every provision necessary for the well-being of the soldier. He fell upon the enemy with all the confidence of victory which would have been inspired by superior numbers, discipline, and equipment. In a fortnight the whole aspect of things was changed; and here was his first address to the army::

"Soldiers!-You have, in fifteen days, gained six victories, taken twenty-one standards, fifty pieces of cannon, several fortresses, made fifteen hundred prisoners, and killed or wounded more than ten thousand men! You have equalled the conquerors of Holland and the Rhine. Destitute of all necessaries, you have supplied all your wants. Without cannon, you have gained battles-without bridges, you have crossed rivers!-without shoes, you have made forced marches!-without brandy, and often without bread, you have bivouacked! Republican phalanxes, soldiers of liberty, alone could have survived what you have suffered! Thanks to you, soldiers!—your grateful country has reason to expect great things of you! You have still battles to fight, towns to take, rivers to pass. Is there one among you whose courage is relaxed? Is there one who would prefer to return to the barren summits of the Apennines and the Alps, to endure patiently the insults of these soldier-slaves?

66

"No!-there is none such among the victors of Montenotte, of Millesimo, of Dégo, and of Mondovi ! My friends, I promise you this glorious conquest; but be the liberators, and not the scourges of the people you subdue!”

Such addresses acted on the army with electrical effect. Bonaparte had only to walk over northern

Italy, passing from triumph to triumph in that immortal campaign, with a facility and rapidity which resembled the shifting views of a phantasmagoria. He entered Milan, and there, to swell and stimulate his legions, he again addressed them :--

To reproduce his highly figurative language, after the fever of universal enthusiasm, in the midst of which it was uttered, has cooled down, is hazardous. It may seem to border on the "You have descended from the summits of the ridiculous. Sublimity itself, when the hearer is Alps like a cataract. Piedmont is delivered.
