RAJO-CLKSO. A Novel. By Fanny Mimlaugb Downing.
PnMlRliod by W. 11. Smith A Co., Ita.olgh (N. C).
Tliis is a most remarkable book. Romarkablo,
inasmuch as though it is ft palpablo imitation of a
portion of "Bleak House," it cannot, with justice,
?o sot down ai a plagiarism whilst it has Buffi
ciont merit in itself to mako it an exceedingly in
teresting novel.
Tho heroine, Lady Ilaughton, is a copy of Lady
Dcdlock, as positively as any ono thing can bo th?j
copy of another. Lady Dcdlock is magnificently
.beautiful, cold and haughty?so is Lady Haugh
ton. Lady Dcdlock doos not love her husband as
a woman should love tho man to whom she is
linked in tho bonds of matrimony?neither docs
Lady Haughton. Dickens* creation has a secret
from lier husband?so has our heroine. Lady
Dcdlock? secret is discovered?so is Lady Haugh
ton's. Sir'Leicester Dodlock (Lady Dodlock's bus
hand) is tho quintcsccncc of noblcnoes and mag
nanimity? Sir Evorard Haughton (Lady Haugh
ton's husband), is exactly tlio same. Sir Leicester
?xliibits his lovo and magnanimity to the groatost
extent when tho socrct is discovered, and when
tho reader would look for a man in bis position to
act quite differently. Sir Everard Haughton acts
identically tho same. Lady Dodlock has a French
maid, Mademoiselle Hortense, who despises her
anistross, and plots her ruin. Lady Haughton
has a French maid. Mademoiselle Folioe, who
does prcoisely tho v 3 thing.
All this has the apr jaraneo of a plagiarism, but
it is not, and for these reasons; in tho first place,
tho imitation is too palpablo to bo a plagiarism. No
one in their sano senses would select tho greatest
of authors, and ono whose works are universally
read, to plagiarize from. Our author, therefore,
imitated, with tho knowledge that, as every ono
who rends her book must bo familiar with Dick
*ENs, and she simply submits to them her copy as
an artist, who paints a picture from a model, tho
"Work of a master hand. Another reason is the
ono given by that great goniam and critic, Eno.vn
A. Poe, who contended that whero many points
of similarity would suggest plagiarism, a corres
ponding number of points of dissimilarity would
relievo the author from the imputation. In jus
tice, then, to our fair authoress, let us give these
points. Lady Dodlock's secret is a guilty one.
Lady Haughton had always been as pure as a
woman can be. Lady Dcdlock had a child of her
own which her Bister had taken enro of. Lady
Haughton took care of her dead sister's child, and
kept the secret because she had made an oath to
tho dying mother to Bavo her reputation. After
tho secret was out, Lady Dedlock fled her home,
and died ere sho could bo found by Mr. Bucket,
tho Detective, and Esther Summcrson, her daugh
ter. Lady Haughton was taken back to her 1ms
hand's arms, learned to lovo him, and became a
good wife. The book is certainly, however, a re
markable one, and tho moro so because it is ex
ceedingly interesting even to ono who has read
Bleak House a doze-i times. The diction is pure,
tho tale well told, and the stylo admirable in its
simplicity.
Tho'authoresH, however, is too prone to imitato.
Tho Btory that Sir Evorard tolls his wife about
tho bracelet smacks too much of Othello and the
handkerchief. Ladies always forget themselves in
books'when they give enthusiastic descriptions of
tho beauty of the malo characters. A man likes
to read of a woman's beauty, and a woman may
derive pleasure from a description of a handsome
man, but the latter is always nauseating to a malo
leader.. In speaking of Mr, Hamilton, a good-for
nothing scamp, after a minuto description of his
" majestic beauty," our authoress says : " But the
face?oh 1 the untold, the indescribable beauty of
that pale, calm face." We cannot fancy this sort
of thing ; wo do not like to hear llus stylo of lan
guage applied to a man.
To sum up, we think tho book, with all its per
fections and " imperfections on its head," is capi
tal, and wo havo no doubt that Mrs. (or Miss)
Downing is destined to take a conspicuous stand
among the first writera of tho day.
TheIrvinotonStoiueh. By M. E. Dodge. James O'Kane,
Publisher, Now York.
This little vbluino is a story book for children,
and wo can say of it honestly and without the
slightest hesitation, it is ono of tho best wo have
acen for many yoars. Few persons can appreciate
tho exceeding difficulty of writing a book of th.B
kind. Tho author is apt to fall into one of the
extremes?ho will either produco a work abovo
the comprehension of tho younger childron, or too
?simple for thoao of a more advanced age. To hit
tho happy medium, it ?b necessary to write a story
which can be understood by a child of nine or ten,
and that at the samo time can bo read with inter
est by a child of fifteen or sixteen, or, in fact, by
an adult. Evon by this difficult standard the "Ir
vingt?n Stories" aro a completo success. The
critic, heiforo reading tho book, handed it to some
intolligopt, little onea, aged nine and ten. Tho
little ones read them all, understood them, and
expressed themselves delighted. Tho critic then
road thorn and found them rather interesting to
himself. Tho littlo critic? found one fault with
the book. Ono of thom remarked of "The Drum
mer Boy:" "That ia a pretty story, but I don't like
it bcoanso it h?-us so much about tho "rob?is." We
endorse the sontimont. It is not in human na
ture, nor in common sense, to expect that our
children should tako pleasure in reading storioa in
which their fathers aro abused and often bebed.
The Drummer Boy is the only war story in tho
bo k, which, so far ne Southern childron aro con-,
cerned; would havo been improved by its omission.

Tho Now York World, of tho 1st hint., has a very
8ouuiblo editorial on the "Need of the South." Wo
copy tho n?tido entire.
THE NEED OF THE HOI TU.
Wo lmvo seen n kilter from a very intelligent ex
plainer to a friend in this city, in reference to tho
probabilities of the carry ronunption of ordinary
work in the Southern States. In his judgment, as
in ours, the lirst great necessity, tin* second great
necessity, and tho third great necessity, is to allow
the into?'?st of whites and blacks to settle tho in
tercourse between them ami the relations between
employer and employed.
Tlmgreat lion in the path of Southern industry
at this moment is Federal legislation. Neither
the planter HOT tho negro is taught or allowed to
relv upon himself. The Frecdineu'a Bureau un
dertakes to adjust that which is Incapable <>f ad
justment, except by a law greater than any law of
Congress?the law of supply and demand.
Tho Free States determined that chattel slavery
should eeaso to exist, and that tho negro should
ho "lord of himself." Whether that lordship shall
ho a "heritago of woe," is n matter which tho
negro must determine for himself, just ns a whito
man does. Ono of tho small fallacies of tho Tri
buno is to assume that tho difficulty about willing
labor on tho part of the negro, is the neglect to
pav weekly wages. Tho bulk of tho farm labor of
th? Froc States which is hired, is hired by tho
year, and no farmer could afford to pay hands
eight months in tho voar when laborers nro plenty,
and loso them during tho four months when labor
ers arc in demand. In harvest time tho price of
a day's labor is three times that of tho average.
Fixity of labor is, therefore, essential. Tho
great trouble with tho planter is to have
constant labor in picking time. Thoro it is
a question of ruin to be without it. No planter
will work a plantation unless ho can compel
labor at that period to fulill its contract honestly.
Hero thero aro two means?keeping back a largo
portion of tho wages accumulated so that the la
borer forfeit- thoin if ho fails to fulfil his agree
ment; and the rigor of climate, which acts as a
iiolico. A man here must provide for winter, and
10 must provide for summer. He freezes and he
burns. But in a semi-tropical climate the negro
for eight months does not burn, and need not la
bor; he can livo almost the lifo of a savage. There
are, indeed, four cold months; but if two-thirds of
the year favors savagery, and only one-third civili
zation, it is not difficult to decide which will carry
the day in a half or quarter civilized being. Our
Stato fairs enable the Northern farmer to enforce
the fulfillment of contracts. That is about all the
Southern planter needs from his Slate. From the
Federal Government he wants nothing.
The white man of the United States is a very
artificial being?tho creature of centuries ?if pro
gressive civilization. His wants and appetites aro
numer?os, and lie works h> gratify them. Tho
original love of laziness, inherent in all men, lias
been gradually worked oat of him. He is as dif
ferent from a black man South as a horse from the
wild ass. The first tiling the negro should be told
is: We have made an experiment; we have, at an
enormous cost, giving you the opportunity of
showing whether you are capable of becoming an
equal citizen of the United States. Yon must show
that you are; yon can show that you nro. As for
tho right of sitffrugo, men generally did not pos
sess i'. in New fork; fifty years ago, scarcely in
any State of the Union. Yon arc not fitted for it:
yoii will not be fitted for it till your intelligence,
sobriety and habits of industry are fixed facts.
All depends upon yourselves, ii' you malic as dili
gent, industrious and sober a population as tho
white, you must, in time, bo equal with the white;
if not, you will dwindlo like the Iudian tribes.
So long as tho Northern white stands between
the black and the Southern white, so long thero
will bo no harmony. There is a natural and mu
tual fooling between the white and tho black
there, which must be worn out, just like the feel
ing between the South ami the rest of tlie Union.
If tho negro has been unjustly treated, ns he has
been continually told by ?lie fanatics, be must feel
injustice. If the white man has been deprived of
what he believed to be his property, he has a con
sciousness of being tho victim of injustice, and
tho ex-slave is tho living reminder of it. No legis
lation, no reasoning, can efi'aco either of those
feelings. Timo will.
What is wanted for the negro, and not a little
for his special friends, i.i tho dissemination of the
knowledge that the first law of labor is the law of
liberty?which means liberty to hire and be lined
without congressional interference, and with no
moro State interference than the enforcement of
contracts.
* o ?
The Richmond Ennuirer speaks as follows of Secretary
StANTON :
Even while sharing with the people of tho South the
bitterness of feeUug tow.rtl the Secretary of War, we
niUEt bear testimony to his firmness, perhaps .stubborn
ness, to his unflagging Industry, and to his devoted
sentiment of Unionism. An earnest enemy is more od
mirablo than a vacillating und unstable num. Mr.
Stanton, during the war, never failed in nnything that
could contribute to the success ol hie cause. When de
feat ovortook bis arms, when the public spirit waned un
der repeated military disaster, aud all seemed lost for
his cause, neither his resolution nor his conrnge failed
him. Ono commander after auothur was dismissed, as
one army after another was ?lestroyod. McL'lcllau made
way for Pope, who, more unfortunate than his predeces
sor, paid the samo penalty. Again McClcllan was super
seded by Durnslde, and thon Hooker, and then Meado,
aud then ?rant. But amidst all the disasters that
caused these frequent change-, the Secretary remained
Ili-iii and immoveablc?determined aud unyielding in
defeat, he was seldom tried by victory; but in defeat his
resolution never to give up the cause was often uiado
apparent. To no ono man in tho United States, more |
than Mr. Stanton, can the success of the United States '
army be attributed. Stanton in Washington, co-operat- I
lug with exhaustion in tho South, overthrew the Con- ,
fedcracy. Neither Lincoln, nor Grant, nor Sherman, i
contributed more to syocess than Stanton.
. m
The report of the Comptroller of the Currency has I
been sent to tbo printer; This will be one of the most
important department documents that will bo sent to
Congress. In treating the question of national banks
and currency, be refers to taxes aud revenue, which has
a bearing on the subject, and in this way will present an
array of valuable facts to our law makers, which, if sus
tained by proper legislation, will go a great way towards
solving the present difficult financial problem. It la un
derstood that ho will urge the removal of tho Bureau to
New York. Secretary McOoLtocii will strongly urge
contraction of the. currency. This, from present ap.
poaranceo, will pervade bis whole report ; but whether ?
he will suggest any feasible plan to accomplish that pur
pose remains to be seen. The total receipts from inter
nal revenue since tho 80th of June amount to f 146,
600,000.
Some time since the Quartermaster's Department di
rected that tho sale of transportation material be discon
tinued. The Commissary Department has, in effect,
adopted the same course in respect to supplies for troops,
and has commenced accumulating at New Orleans and
other posts convenient to Texas. Inspectors are ?aid to
be looking closely into tho condition and quantity of
transportation and ordnance stores, and directing repairs
m all coses where they are needed. Taken in connection
with General Grant's proposed visit to Sheridan, these
facts show a disposition to keep the Army of the South
west in condition for aotive service at a moment's notice.
It la stated that tho National Treasury has now on
