LIVES OF MEN OF LETTERS AND SCIENCE WHO
FLouRIsHED IN THE REIGN OF GEORGE III. By
Hart, Philadelphia This is a republication from
the English edition of this very interesting work,
by one of the greatest minds Of the age. There
is no doubt that Lord Brougham, with all his
faults and eccentrcities, is most profound think
er and polished writer. Still his opinions upon
political subjects cannot be relied upon with
much confidence, as it is well known that he suf-
fers his party prejudlces to bias him, even on I'M
portant subjects. The present volume contains
the lives of Dr. Johnson, Adam Smith, Sir Joseph
Banks, Gibbon, and D'AembeTt.

Taylor, 2 Astor House, New York.-The number

cles, on variety of subjects. There is one pow
erful and slashing article, entitled sour Army in
Texas" which pours furious broadside into the
war department, and points out the errors and
inefficency that marked their conduct Of the pre-
sent campaign as its commencement. Ii shows
that the greatest danger existed of army being
cut to pieces, had they been attacked by almost
any other force than that OF the Mexicans and the
blame of this it charges upon MIR. Secretary Mar
cy. i've, so far, coincide with the writer, for we
know that the conduct of the war department
was marked by imbecility and nertness, until it
was goaded into exertion by the universal voice
OF the press of the country1
