NEW BOOKS.
CAMEBON Han : A Story of the Civil War. By M. A. C.
author of "The Little Episcopalian," "Bessie Melville,'
etc. Philadelphia : J. B. Lippincott & Co., 1867.
M. A. C., we learn, is M?SB MAST ASK CHOSE, of
Huntsville, Ala., and "Cameron Hall" is tho first
of her books we have seen; and although the title
of the work-"A Story of the Civil War"-usually
prevents any farther reading of a book on our
part, we in this instance, by an effort, overcame
the repugnance, and faithfully and conscientiously
read the whole 543 pages of "Cameron Hall." Our
objection to novels founded on the facts connected
with the civil war, ate the same we should have to
romances on any other cotemporary historical
event. The scenes, events, and characters of the
story aro all too fresh in our memories. Every
statement is instinctively measured by tho truth of
history; and not only this, but by our individual
viow of such truth. There is an intuitive running
criticism in tho mind of the reader, fatal to all en
enjoyment of the story. . No man is a hero to his
valet de chambre. Familiarity must ever remain
antagonistic to all attempts at romance. The
child's fancy delights in picturing a world of prin
cos, palaces, fairies e.r. i genii. Wo are aware that
thc daring and sacrilegious utilitarianism of the
day hos invaded this domain also; and JACOB
ABBOTT has written, and the HARPERS have pub?
lished, some six or seven dozen of Rollo Books,
Beechnut Stories, etc.,-the most dreary and unat?
tractive children's books over known; full of
preachments, short stories and long morals. We
think, however, we can safely predict a short?
lived immortality for the whole tribe or them.
In reading novels big folks a- e children, and pre?
fer the great, the lofty, tho unattainable, the vague
and mysterious, even if exaggerated, to a moro
common place narration of thc incidents of every
dry life around them. Sir WALTEB SCOTT well un?
derstood this idiosyncracy and profited by it.
"St. Bonan's Well," perhaps the best of his co
temporary novels, can only bear comparison with
his historical romances, becauso the hand of tho
same transcendent genius traced tho picture.
DICKENS succeeds in treating such subjects be?
cause of his humour, his knowledge of humaa
characters and unporalelled descriptive powers.
THACKERAY deli ghted a select audienco, ' 'fit though
few," by his trenchant satire and inimitable
sketches of socloty. But neither of thests great
masters, we think, would have ventured, so soon
after the event, on a description in narrative fic?
tion of the scenes and incidents of a civil war, all
the occurrences connected with which perfectly
familiar to every one of his readors. It is too
soon to treat the subject from au ideal point of
view, and realism, for the reasons above given, is
fatal to it as a work of art.
There aro great masters of painting in both
schools; but to entitle a picture to admiration,
true and lasting, it must show something more
than the hare realism of the Pre-Raphaelites,
which finds nothing bizarre in the cobbler's judg?
ment, whose acumen exhausted itself in tho crit?
ical examination of the Papal shoe. A tree, a
mountain, figures of animals, and the human face
divine, all are susceptible of a variety o' treatment
in both styles. ROSA BONHEBB will paint you a
horse, or a dog, or the highland heather, true to
nature and to life, while Sir EDWIN LANDSEER'S in?
terpretation of the same themes, equally true to
life, are yet highly idealized. But what is in itself
commonplace, cannot be rendered poetic or beau?
tiful. A mathematically correct drawing of a
house, a wall, a locomotive or a sewing machine, arc
not without their merit, and may be isometrically
beautiful, but they are by common consent ban?
ished from the domain of the fine arts.
So is it-certainly should be-in the field of
literature. The characters of a novel may be very
true lo nature, and yet bo intolerable. Is it not
enough that we must endure stupidity in our daily
intercourse with men and women? Are we prepar?
ed to have all this ineptitude phonographed, and
then be compelled to read it ? The more faithfully
such characters are drawn-the more life-like the
conversation-the worse the book. No amount of
unexceptionable morality, virtuous example, and
poetic justice, can compensate for this, oven
though it be all written in excellent English. But
if to these drawbacks is superadded, as is not
unfrequently the case, a total want of invention,
and the hook is unredeemed by aught that could
relieve the dull monotony of proverbial platitudes,
then we have the perfection of the modern moral
and religious novel-"The Wide,. Wide Worlds,"
'.'Queechys," Atc. .
To show how difficult a task it is at this time to
write either a fair history of the civil war, or a
novel bearing upon it, we will mention the case of
MARION HARLAND, who recently made the essay in
her "Sherbrooke." Herself a "Virginian born, but
a resident of New Jersey, she was condemned by
the Southern press for viewing everything from a
Yankee stand point, and by the Northern papers
because of her partiality for "rebels."
We do not wish to be understood as applying
any of the foregoing remarks specially to "Came?
ron Hall" We have spoken of the characteristics
of the genus, and as belonging to that genus, the
book before us must be considered open to the
same objections. The onus probandi ia with it;
and we are happy to say a deal of very good proof
has been submitted showing cause why this pres?
ent book should be acquitted from the severe
charges under which it has been brought into
court. The language' is good, style simple and
pleasing, and there is an abundance of mystery.
We have two or three secrets running all through
the story. The idea of the blind girl Agnes and
her sayings and doings is not altogether original;
rathor a .favorite theme of late years with lady
novelists. Uncle John is a sort of Squire All
worthy, only found in romances. There is, how?
ever, too much talk. The conversations are many,
very long, and often pointless. A deep religious
tone pervades the whole work; and although there
is a total absence of anything like wit or humor,
"Cameron Hall" is, nevertheless, a very interest?
ing story, and will be read with pleasure as well as
benefit by the average class of novel readers.
ANDREW JOHNSON IS READX PCB TRIAL.-The
Washington Republican, the special organ of Presi?
dent JOHNSON, in its issue of Tuesday, says :
A member of the United States House of Repre?
sentatives, who, a few years since,'was charged
with corruptly using his office as a member of che
Committee on Territories, arose in his place yes?
terday and presented ''articles of impeachment"
against Andrew Johnson, President of the United
States, for corruptly using his office. It appears
by our report that the Committee on tho Judiciary
is "authorized" to investigate the subject 1 Whv
did not this Territorial Surveyor-General Ashley,
who offered this bill of indictment against Mr.
Johnson, provide that the Committee should bo
inatruoted, a term usually employed by honest
men engaged in a work of Christian patriotism,
and not use the weak, unmeaning word "author?
ized," which, to a Congressional Committee, is
inst what they may choose to interpret it ? Lotus
tave no mockery 1 If Congress means to enter
upon the grave work of impeachment, let the trial
progress with some degree of respectability and
dignity, and then the people will understand that
their representatives are in earnest. If Congress
does pot mean impeachment, but is engaged in a
work of buncombe, announce the fact, and no
longer paralyze the whole business of the country.
Andrew Johnson is ready for trial.
CHARXiESTOlSr, S. C.,
The French Exposition.
Lord DEBUT, in an after-dinner speech, published
in THE NEWS a few weeks ago, alluding to the
Paris Exposition of 18C7, jocnlarly remarked that
an invasion is on foot against tho French Capital,
but contrary to the usual custom, in this instance
the invaded will levy on tho invaders for the costs of
tho expedition. La Pairie, a journal published in
Paris, takes ombrage at this jeu d'esprit, and says
that Lord DEBBY, in saving this, doubtless had in
his mind tho unchristian exactions made by the
people of London during the great Exhibition of
1851. It then goes on to say, at some length and
with considerable apparent resentment, that the
Parisians would be actuated by a different spirit,
and that no such forced contributions are to bo
apprehended on the part of the foreign visitors.
We suspect, however, that the remarks of La
Pairie aro intended more for the benefit of the
Parisians tb an as a rebuke to Lord DEBBY. Under
the guise of a protest, it lectures them, showing
what is expected of them, and what is to their true
interest.
Pru salon Prize Money.
WrxxiAK, by the grace of God, King of Prussia,
m the lGth of November last, decreed that, with

passage of the District 'jnflkmge Bill over
thc veto-Scene in. tho Senate-Ashley's
Impeachment Resolution.
We moke the following extracts from the Bal
imore Hun's Washington correspondence of Mon
tay :
The Senate galleries were not more than half j
Hied at the opening of tho session to-day, not?
withstanding it was well known that the President
fould send in to that body his veto of the negro
rnfirage bill for the District of Colombia. The
President's son and private secretary, Colonel
Robert Johnson, appeared a few minutes before
me o'clock and announced the document. The
norning hoar exoiring almost immediately there?
after, Vice-President Foster ordered tho message
o be read, without waiting for any motion on the
mbject. It was thou read by the Secretary of the
Senate, Colonel John W. Forney, amid perfect
ilence, tho Senators having been simultaneously
uppliod with printed copies.
The reading occupied thirty-five minutes, when
[ebate was opened by Mr. Morrill sa Chairman of
he District Committee and father of the Bill.
Iis remarks were brief, consisting in mero denials
if the positions assumed by the President. In a
hort time the galleries were largely reinforced,
nd much interest was manifested in the debate,
t was noticeable that not over half a dozen blacks
rere present. Hr. Sherman followed Mr. Morrill,
nd announced his readiness to toko op cse garant?
?t thrown down by tho Democratic party in Ohio,
nd to fly the banner of uni vet sal suffrage.
The debate which followed was animated by
?lessrs. Cowan and Wilhams, the latter in favor of
nfranchising tho negroes, though in the Conven
ion to form a State Constitution ?or Oregon he
oted against colored suffrage, when there were
trobably not a dozen negroes in the Territory.
lr. Sainsbury frequently pressed Mr. Williams
nth pointed questions until he declined to answer.
Ir. Johnson, of Maryland, also spoke at some
angth against the measure, and the debate was
oncludou by Mr. Doolittle, when the question was
mt, twenty-nine votes being recorded m the affirm
tive and ten in the negative, thirteen Senators
icing absent.
?he chair announced tho passage of the bill
.mid profound silence, when the crowded galleries
ap idly dispersod without tho slighest manifesta
ion of feeling.

an a simple resolution authorizing, not directing,
he Judiciary Commitee to investigate the general
iharges made by Mr. Ashley, and the vote, when
indorstood, does not indicate that the House will
mstain the charges. Many of those who voted for
ho resolution did so to get it out of the way or
tito tho hands of tho committee, where it is be
reved the thing will die ont for want of proof to
sustain the charges of commission of high crimes
ind misdemeanors, as those terms are defined by
aw and understood by jurists.
No one has yet named a singla case in which the
groofs are of the character to sustain the legol.in
ierpretation of the terms above mentioned. The
Luthor of the resolution is not regarded as a law?
ler, and I believe does not profess to be one, and
ns cases suggested to sustain tho charges merely
unbraces acts of a political or partisan character,

A CHABTEB VETOED.-The Macon Telegraph
.carns privately that Governor Jookins has vetoed
he bill passed near the close of the session to
?barter the New Orleans. Mobile and Chattanooga
Railroad. The Telegraph learns the ground of oo
oction to be, "that it confers an extent of power
md privilege dangerous to railroad interests gene?

Railroad-in fact, that it would be equivalent to
admitting the new company as partners with the
State in a considerable portion of that important
work." Wo have not noticed allusion to the sub?

CHANT APPROVES THE VETO.-A Washington let?
ter says: "The President's message vetoing the
District Suffrage Bill was read in Cabinet session
on tho afternoon of that day. I now learn that
General Grant was, by invitation, present daring
the reading of the document, and that he folly and ?
unequivocally approved the message, as also the
members of thc Cabinet, except Mr. Stanton, who
read a short opinion, taking the ground that the
Bill was constitutional, and advising the President'
to approve it."
MIGRATION OP AFBIOANS.-This seems to'have
increased within the ?vaat week. Every cay wit?
nesses a group of one hundred or more assembled
at the car-shed a tri ting shipment to the West.
Their condition, in many instances, ie pitiable.
Seduced from comfortable homes by fair promises,
we fear that tho Elysium they hope to reach wilt
vanish as the mirage does before the eager gaze of
the desert traveller. Bot "thou art freedom's now,
and fame's." swarthy men of Ham-continue thy
peregrinations westward.

SATURDAY MORNING-,
The Historical Seven.
A Northern paper, of a lato date, romrsajs ns of
the canons fact, that almost ovory decade in the
history of this country, ending with tho figaro
seven, has marked tho beginning ol a, financial
crabb, or severe depression. It says:
Historio fatalism, if not actual signs of the
times, incline many to the belief that 1867 is to be
added to the periods in our p&cit history, made
memorable by financial troubles. With 1797 came
the crash that wiped out tho Continental
currency, and in 1807 our troubles with Franco
and prospective war with England, throw
the business of the country into confusion,
while in 1817 we got the legacy of tho war of
1812-14 with England, which was a tremendous
financial revulsion. That of 1827 was loss se?
vere, but ten years later, it came in good
earnest-the smash of ail previous smashes, in
whioh the whole banking system and buRir.ess of
the country went down, not to rise for no ai ly fivo
years. If for nothing else, Gon. Jackson and his
successor will bo remembered for their reckless?
ness in smanhing np the currency to gratify por
sonal and political spite. King Hudson reigned
over the English railroad speculations of 1847, and
famine stalked over Europe, and especially in Ire?
land, spreading Buffering and causing wide-spread
failures. A purely commercial snap emphasized
1857, caused by inflation and overtrading.
But tho crash of 1867, if one is inevitable, which
we neither proclaim nor admit, will be " Pelion
apon Ossa." indeed.' The chasm is too deep and
dark to think of, much less to look into. Let us
hope the rather, that by rigid economy among con?
sumers, the present heavy balance against us on
the year's foreign trade may be made up, that
favoring skies will bring ns abundant crops, and
the hands of producers be multiplied rapidly ail
over the land, so that the present heavy burden of
taxation can be borne; that Congress will be suc?
cessful in so adjusting the correr.cy and imposts,
that the year 1867 may be securely tided over, and
our domestic comfort and foreign obligations be
securely and honorably provided for.
HORSE TH I KV ABBEBTED.-A young man, who
calls himself L. Spell, of Sampson County, N. C.,
was arrested in this city last night on a charge of
stealing a horse from a Mr. Carter, of this county,
and was committed to await his trial at tho next
term of our County Court. Tho young man came
to the Mansion Hotel, in this place, on tho night of
the Slat of December, and registered his name as
above. On the first day of January, under the
name of James Lewis, he hired himself as a la?
borer to Mr. Carter, wno resides some miles west
of this place, and remained with him until
Sunday night last, when he decamped with
Mr. Carter's best horse, bridle, saddle and
overcoat. Mr. Carter came. immediately to
this place early yesterday morning, and
had somo hand bills s true off, announcing: tho
fact, describing the thief, &c., which were posted
in different parts of the town. On last night tho
young man came to the Mansion ' House again,
having come down from States ville on the Western
train, and registered himself as before, "L. Spoil,
Sampson Co., N. C." He was at once recognized
hy some one as the party described in the hand
h?ls, and was arrested accordingly. After his ar?
rest he made his escape from tho hands of his cus?
todians, but was soon recaptured. After his com?
mittal we leam that he mace a full confession con?
firming the above statement of facts. He rodo
the horse to Stateavflle, sold him there, changed
his dress, and came to this city on tho Western
train and was arrested_Salisbury Old North slate.
A GOOD JOEE ON BENNETT.-The New York cor?
respondent of tho Louisville Courier, alluding to
the recent yacht race, says:
I may as well tell you a little incident. It was
naturally supposed, as young Bennett was one of j
the most interested parties in it. tho New York
Herald would bo the first to receive nows of tho
arrival of tho Henrietta, provided she reached
Cowes first. Well, she did, but the first tho Herald
knew of it was a dispatch sent to it by the cour?
tesy of Mr. Craig, of the United States and Euro?
pean Association, which boat the broken down
Associated Press, as it does every dav, both in the
quantity and quality of its nows and thoprcnipt- j
ness with which it is transmitted. The Hera lu is |
a fast newspaper, and Mr. Bennett too sagacious
to remain long with the "monopoly concern."

valley of Saratoga. Its virtues are such as have secured
lt the high encomiums of all who have need it, possess?

alterative and tonic qualities.
Prom SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D., Professor
Practice of Physic. Jefferson Medical College,' Phila?
delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C. :
PHILADELPHIA, November 16,18S5.
1 have been for a year or more past in the habit of
taking the water of the "Excelsior" Spring of Saratoga.
Accustomed during the great portion of my invalid life
to use the different waters of the several fountains which
bott up along that remarkable valley, dependent, indeed,
upon them for much of the comfort I enjoy, I am satis?
fied that the Excelsior Water is as well adapted as any
other among them, if not more BO, to the purposes for
which they are generally employed. It ls very agreeable,
strongly impregnated with the carbonic seid, lively and
sparkling. * ? * I can heartily and conscientiously
recommend it to all who need a gentle cathartic and
diuretic. SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D.
The Water is put up in Pint and Quart bottles, and
packed in good order for shipping, Pints in boxes of
four dooen each, and Quarts in boxes of two dozen each.
