The Centennial History of the United States, from the discovery of the American Continent to the present time; with a complete History of the Centennial Exhibition. By James D. McCabe, Author of "A manual of General History," "The Great Republic," etc. There has long been a great and universally-felt want of a History of the United States suitable for general use. This want is now being supplied by the National Publishing Company, of Philadelphia, who have issued a handsome volume, styled "The Centennial History of the United States," by James D. McCabe, a'well-known historical writer. This work will, undoubtedly, take rank as the standard History of the United States. It is no dry mass of details?no bombastic effort to inflame the national pride, buta clear, vivid and brilliant narrative of the events of our history from the discovery of the American continent down to the present time. It traces the evidences of that mysterious race, the first occupants of our country, and gives a most interesting account of the Indians of North America, from the time of the coming of the white men. The voyages of Columbus, the explorations of the different nations of Europe and the final occupation and conquest of the land by England,are told with graphic power. Every step of our colonial history is traced with patient fidelity, and the sources of those noble, and we trust, enduring institutions which have made our country free and great, are shown with remarkable clearness. The causes of our great struggle for Independence are told with a logical force and ability unsurpassed in any work of the day. Then follows a clear and succinct account of the formation of the Federal Constitution; the establishment of the Union ; the course of affairs until the breaking out of the second war with England ; and a full and comprehensive account of that war and its results. The events of our career from the close of that contest to the commencement of the Civil War, follow in their order The History of the Great Civil War is related with intense vigor, and with strict fidelity to truth. The author pleads the cause of no party or section. He states facts, points out the lessons which they teach, and appealing to neither passion nor political feeling, trusts to the good sense of his countrymen to sustain his views. The book contains a complete account of the Centennial Exhibition. It is comprised in one large handsome octavo volume of over 1100 pages, and contains more than 500 fine engravings, on steel and wood, of historical scenes. The price is so low that all can afford to purchase a copy, and each subscriber is presented with a superb lithographic engraving of the Centennial Buildings and Grounds. It is sold by subscription only, and Mr. E. H. MILES, of Rock Hill, who is the authorized agent fortius section, is now canvassing for it. December 6 49 tt HYMENEAL.
