LITERARY.
NAMELESS; a Novel. By Fanny Murdaugh Downing.
Raleigh: Smith & Co. 186G.
We owe our copy of this novel-from the pen of
one of the moist accomplished of tho female writ?
ers of tho South-to some unknown source, to
which wo are gratified for bringing to our 3CQOW1
edge one of tho moat graceful, tasteful, and felici?
tous of all tho fictions produced among our sever?
al female authors for many a day. We say this
without hesitation, and commend the story espe?
cially to all that class which can appreciate inge?
nious art, a flowing and graceful stylo, an easy,
unaffected manner, and a tale wrought out, in
spite of many difficulties of the subject, te the
happiest conclusion.
Aa a story "Nameless" is one of sufficient inter
ast to keep the reader wakeful and excited to the
ilose; from its happily chosen incidents, tho con?
tinued progress which it makes, and its very ad?
mirable characterization.
In this one particular the writer is especially ex?
cellent; exhibiting much knowledge of mankind
womankind included, of course, as being, what
ILEKN?SOI?"colls "the lesser man"-?happy tact in
3is crimination, and an equally happy talent in the
dialogue, which is. always simple, natural, direct,
md true to the several persons of the drama.
This felicity of characterization is so uniformly
axcellent as to make us regret one failure of the
luthor- as we think it-in the portrait of Miss
FOLDING. Here, it seems to us, that her right
land has failed somewhat of its cunning ; and, in
;he desire to furnish a proper foil to her other
parties, and to afford, perhaps, a specimen of the
udicious pretension of vulgarity, she has over?
used those limita of a beautiful propriety, whioh,
n all the other characters, is so uniformly appa?
rent, and so admirably sustained. How should
nach a person as M?SB GOLDING have found 1' sr
ray into such a circle as that of which Lady
IAUGRT" S was the cynosure-the presiding deity ;
nth such a beautiful collection of sweet spirits
.bout her, as came naturally within her sphere,
nd were so fitly associated with it ? Making all
lue allowanco for the insolence which mere
vealtb, without accomplishments, is apt to en?
gender, Miss GOLDING would still find herself ro
raked to a certain degree of modesty, meekness
nd simplicity, in such, a circle ;-especially as the
realth of Lady HAVGHTON, and of the family of \
he CHESTEES, was more than equal to hernwn ;
nd Lady HAUGHTON-, at least, had no reason to
onciliate vulgarity of any sort merely because of |
tn wealth. The atmosphere of such a circle
ronld subdue and restrain such a mere animal as
lisa GOLDING; nor is it possible for such a woman,
wreathing such an atmosphere,, not to; be forced
o imbibe its sentiments, at least, and, in some
legree, to adopt its habits and observances.
We can. easily understand that the author had
wo objecta in view, if no more, in her portraiture
>f this ridiculous woman. In the first place, the.
haracter isi ? natural conception, and, aa such, is
llustrative of certain -characters to bo met with in
ll large circles, and. possibly in many small ones.
?he serves as a foil to the better ones, and affords
ariety to the general interest of a hook. She
[lustr?tes, at the same time, the insolence of real
-ealth, acquired, by accident, or the caprice of for?
ano; and ser vea to rebuke, the tendency of the
rorld, to exaggerate the merits of the possossor of
jrtune.
In the second place, she is properly,-employed ?a
"he Fate, by which to pursue and punish one of |
he most worthless of all those persons of the
rama, who sacrifice, all the virtues of manhood,
itelleot and moral in the pursuit of fortune, ut
srly regardless of tho liberal endowments of na?
ve to himself, and as utterly regardless of those
cquisitions of society and education which might
ave lifted him into honorable distinction, and
lade him the poBBessor of the happiest domestic
njoymonts, had ho. been lesa of tho mercenary
nd voluptuary.
So far, all is- well in tho design of the author.
)nr charge is that she has been guilty of auch an
.xeggeration of the vulgar portraiture as to ira?
lair its ufloe for lier moral by making it an exores
ence upon the story, and injuring the proprieties
f a narrative which ?a .otherwise exquisitely true
3 good taste and to nature. We ropeat that such
woman as Miss GOLDING "could not breathe such
n atmosphere of society as that in which we find
or; and to .placo her there, a tolerated inmate of c
not circle, was'to disparage its own claims to our J
ympathiea and respect.
We can understand how a selfish and even ma?
gnant man -like Osborne should be tolerated; ?
ince, openly, he appears as the well-bred gent?o- (
ian. - IT bis morals are bad, his manners, in so- ,
ie ty, . are selon lea, regies. It is the objection to i
His Golding, that her mumers aro so bad, too 1
ad for the circle; so bad, indeed, that we do not *
ispect heir. of. any- morals whatever, and do not
ire into w'. trot cir clo she shall fall. c
We have dwelt more on this matter than we <
lould ordinarily in discussing any ordinary book. ?
; is because "Namekas" is not an ordinary book a
lat we obj sci to the exaggeration in the port rai- c
ire of this vulgar woman, lt impairs the h armo- T
y of the story, just as a rudo character in rod and ^
allow would impair tho beauties of a Titian or j
laude Lorraine. And we confess t] a sentiment t
f surprise, that a writer whoso general portrai- 1
ire ?B so nicely and delicately sketched,-wita such \
n excellent sense of the proprieties-that she i
hould have fallen into the exaggeration of this
ne portrait. . ; . . ?'_ 1
We do not' deny that BU ch a person does exist in j
us world-that the character is true'enough to. i
aturo in oertein conditions; but we do protest
lat such a person would never have been admit-11
3d into our circle, the writer's own circle, or '1
ie circle whioh she has brought us to know, in
tua charming little volume.
Of Mrs. DOWNING'S writings, hitherto, we have
nown little- or nothing. A few graceful little
oems aro all that have mot our eyes. We aro
old that she has written other volumes of prose
.ction, such as the present, which are all spoken
I {yith: favor, if not admiration. We trust that
he will persevere in tho present province of let
era, which seems to come naturally to her hands,
io thing here ?B on stilts. . There is no vain strivi?
ng at the sensational or spasmodic. All is easy,
[raceful, natural, and very artist-like. Good taste
ihe certainly possesses in an eminent degree,
rarity of thought as of style, and that sense of
lice propriety. which is required to be the very
ounda-tion of good taste. Wo commend to her
ne choice of Home subjects.
The English, themselves", give us quite enough
>f their fictions from high and fashionable life.
Let ns leave .them in possession of these topics.
Let Mrs. DOWNING next give us just such a story
ta this, and lay the scene in the good old "City of
?he Oaks"-Haleigh-or in her own pleasant town
>f Charlotte, and we promise her a wider reputa
ion and better compensation than she could pos
jibly acquire from delving in the foreign and con?
temporary material. Let her do as we counsol,
md the good "Old North State" will spread her
patriarcbial arms above her, and call her blessed
imong the daughters who have done honor lo her
soil.

offerB to booksellers the original EngliBh woik, in

the trade prefers buying Mr. STRAHAN'S to tho
"greatly superior edition" put forth in England by
the author, all because thero is no international

Miss MARI L BOOTH appears to bo a most in?

translate so many French works in so short a time.
The latest announcement is her translation of EU?

But the name of the artist who can traoe ? -
So I, in filth which comes to me.
Believe in a hind across the sea.
Where my vaguent fancies stand supremo
In a grand p?rfe-jtion beyond my dream.

Shah formless lyrics to shape be grown;
In thee all rhapsody riseth troo,
And the thoughts of beauty are ever new.
O land unknown I where all 1B best,
In thee is my aspiration -blessed.
For I toil and tarry until I may,

Rev. WTT.T.TAM C. RICHARDS, formerly well known

Round Table: .
A 8NOW S?HNET. :
Strange, silent, subtle snow I Storm without sound,
A shadowy shape, yet palpable in might,
Whose terrors twine about us in a night.
And from soft sleep and sweet awake us bound,
A tented field and ghostly troops around
White waving flags from every wintry tree
Flout In our face the vaunt of victory,
That earth and we a conqueror have found. ;
Not tho red wrath of Jove's electric blow,
Nor ruthless rage of wanton winds at war,
That shake the seas and make the mountains jar,
Hath spell so weird and wondrous as tho snow. '
The silent, stealty snow, whose frozen breath
Holds half the world in thrall, locked ins living death.

[SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DALLY NEWS.]
UPON THE EVE OH AN EXPLOSION.
WASHINGTON, February 4.-It is evident to
any one at present watching national affairs
in Washington, that events oro ripening
which will precipitate either this week or
next-certainly within the fortnight-a grand
denouement in some ono of the conspira?
cies and counter-efforts of tho day. The long im?
pending dissensions in the Radical ranks has at
length become so palpable and outspoken among
the leaders that even the lay figures of the party
no longer attempt to conceal the fact. In the mat?
ter of reconstruction, THAD. STEVENS is agonized
at the thought that barely four weeks remain in
which to perfect some method of restoration that
will restore the waning unanimity of the party.
Beaton both last session and this in bia own
propositions for accomplishing something tangible
in tho shape of a Congressional policy, "Old
THAD." now stands thoroughly humbled, and posy
aesaed of an absorbing anxiety of reaching a con?
clusion, without regard to who claims its paternity
among tho riyal leaders that surround him. He
understands that, unless something is effected
and put forth definitely to the world, his leader?
ship of the Thirty-ninth Congress will be declared
a failure, and his chances of maintaining such
supremacy in the next Congress be scattered to
the winds. It is thia realization that yesterday
led him to declare upon tho re-assembling of the
Joint Committee on Reconstruction, over which
ho was called to presido, that he would accept any
plan or bill devised by any creature of tho commit?
tee, and upon which they would make a bold, zeal?
ous endorsement. Even this concession, or rather
appeal, roused no interest in the committee, which,
after a half hour's informal talk, adjourned until
Wednesday noxt. Between BINGHAM and BUTLER
"old THAD." very sagely concludes that he is go?
ing to have a desperate contention in maintaining
anything like his present mastery over this weak
and languid Congress. BINGHAM has. already fair?
ly vanquished him on his own ground in defeating
tho Enabling Act before the Houao a week ago, and
though thc former does not as yet essay to insti?
tute any legislation touching reconstruction hini
Belf, yet having held STEVENS at bay for the brief
residue of the presont session, it is hardly proba?
ble that he will fail to lake tho initiativo when the
mustering of tho Fortieth Congress results in
placing his opponent still further ont of tho pale
of undisputed potency. In the'line of
IJIPEACHMENT
there is destined to be much stragefcic man oeuvor
ing among the several aspirants for the part of tho
grand inquisitor. In thoso premiaea the status of ;
affairs is more complicated, and, therefore, in?
volves a deeper and craftier order of conspirators.
ASHLEY, tho mover of the investigation of the Pre?
sident's octa with reference to bringing him to
trial, is too much of an nonentity to be taken into
account in this scramble for tho chief place in the
proposed prosecution of the Executive. But there I {
is tho Bilent perseverance oj BOUT WELL and Wr?- | s
SON, who already have the field, by right of posses?
sion, as it lays before the Judiciary Committee of
the House. . As between these men, and the two
revolutionary (though opposing) characters; that
are to enter the lists on the fourth Of March next-. *
BEN. BUTLER and LOGAN-the privilege of heading j
the assault upon the White House will be fought ?.
out with marvellous cunning and resource.
LOGAN has but just arrived, and is, therefore, more
or loos unsettled in his plan of operations; while . ?
BUTLBB, hie wily antagonist,has been heretlffand K
on, from tho inception of the impeachment move
men t.and has already Bhaped his ends most adroit?
ly upon one issue at least.
BUTLER and LOGAN may B trike hands in this tus?
sle to assume tho head and front, of accusation
against ANDREW JOHNSON. Both are positiv? in i
their determination that the job of preferring an- p
indictment shall not be consummated until they ?
Eire wann in their Congressional seats and prepar?
ed to claim all the eclai of the movement, and as- j
rame, each for himself, the conduct of the case. ?
BUTLER, at this time, is softly taking the Radicals ' G
by,the hand, with a pleasant grin of protestenffu?- rJ
ing his distorted, flabby features,' and counselling
them to put away, as they would the pest', afl
thought of impeachment. "Well enough," says T
BEN, "when the elections 'were pending, to keep ^
the ball in motion, but tho people being carried, T
hpediency must govern the day." Tho day that p
necessitates this assumed expediency will only O
ast, so far as BUTLER is concerned, until the 4th &
>f Muroh next, and Bourwx LL and WILSON know *
t, and plod secretly on in their endeavors to gath- ?
jr the material' for a charge upon which to L?ngo w
ind consunimate impeachment. - ' j
LOGAN enters the area without a plan of cam?
paign. To-day-he has sought BOUTWELL,- and
sought to draw from that crafty, lynx-eyed Radical E
something of the truth concerning what had been Ti
lone by him and his coadjutor, WILSON, and what 7?
legree of success had attended their efforts. . As *?
3o UT WELL has since remarked, all that his interro- ffl
jator evoked during thiB interview is not hkely to 18
mprove his undemanding of tho situation, or en- dl
?bia him to lay a Echems .for foiling the advance
nent it really possesses. Now, I think that tho
sffect of this four-cornered diplomacy will be to
idd to the zeal of Messrs. BOUTWELL and WILSON
n "putting up" a ease against the President, and
hat the upshot of thia renewed haste will be that
? grand squabble will /be precipitated some fine
norning among the Radicals by the presentment
>f a bill of indictment again st the President from
he Judiciary Committee, accompanied with a de?
ft and for the immediate consideration of tho same.
This explosion is mo;jt likely to occur the fore?
part of next week, thus giving a soant''thr?e weeks
o complete tho trial-manifestly too short to end
his session, and eo remaining tobe the first order
if brujineBB for the Con: ress to meet so closely
ipon the other's demise.' There is one thing that
leriously retards the -progress of BOUTWELL and
lia associate, and has vexed-them mightily all
dong. They have firmly anticipated ?from .-tho'
lrsfc that a fear of their investigations would have
nduced'tho administration to appear before /their
)omm>ttee, with. a.view to examining thorevldenco
if tho accusation, and for the presentment of re-'
ratting witnesses. But the 'focused bas placidly
>ided his time, and would soem quito impassable'
o the mysterious measures that menace him.:
3OUTWELL & Co., under these depressing circum
?tances, really can't comprehend now man may be,
Lepraved into such auicioal solidity. VIDEX.
[FROM OUR SPECIAL CXimiESP?NBENT.]
NEW YOEE, February .fii^^he'diBpi?^ement of
^resident JOHNSON will not occasion mor? inconve
lience than would the displacement of a Mayor of
few York." " So Bays the JTer?id, but after all 'tis'
? more matter ol' opinion, and . business men toll,
is a different tale; they tell tts that when the head;
if :the body pohtic is removed there will certainly
ie at least some "inconvenience" to tho body itself;
hey tell us that-tho Government will : threaten to
'go up" atleaat temporarily, and that gol&will go
rp permanently; they tell tis that a crash of some
ind may be expertejL^at any rate a financial
lanie; they say SUET President JOHNSON will not.
;iye up the holm'of the Bhip of State as quietly aa
ne would resign tho position of president of a
loy's debating club.: This we learn from business
nen-from tho bone and - sinew; but the Herald
ays: th?re will be no incouvenience;: Time will
how who is right, and the time is near at hand. "
There, io a groaning and gnashing of tooth
,mong the lottery men, lamentations fill -the: air,
ind the countenances bf the gift enterprise dealers
ro as blank as the majority of their tiokets. The
iwhas stretched 'forth its hand and put-a stop to
ho schemes for charitable purposes, gotten np
ftentimes.by men who behove that charity begins
t homoj and sometimes remains1 there. A man
?amed BEGAN, who had dovised. a scheme for the
leuefit of the New York Hospital,, has been arrest*
d, and the scheme nipped in the bud, other buds
ieing nipped at the same time, and other lottery
lowers born to blush unseen and waste their
weetness on the desert air. The charitable men
rho get up these schemes solely for the benefit of
he poor (meaning themselves) put an uncharitable
ons traction on the motive of the prohibition; and
(intend that the object is ,o chook them in tho
irosecution of their plans of benevolence. :?:.?''
General SANTA ANNA has turned up .again, like a
>ad shilling; he has turned up on Staten leland,
nth hoad uppermost, and 'tis - hinted that in the
lead there ore.great schemes going on which will
>e made known ere long, and give us ano ther ob
ectof interest to talk about, besides Re thread
rare story of the intended impeachment of Presi
lent JOHNSON. " ' . , ' /"
Doctora differ; allopathy hos its hosts of foll o w
>ra, but homoeopathy is fast gaining ground,whilst
lome who call themselves eclectic physicians mix
ip tho two systems as they mix their drugs. As
.ho race stands now, thc allopathic steed is still in
ho advance, but ho is hard pressed by the small
lomooopathio three year old, whilst the eclectic colt
s rather in the rear. The tuiriual report bf the
Bond street Homoeopathic Dispensary shows that
n tho past year they havo.admini?tered inftnite9si
nal but all potent doses to upwards of twenty-five
thousand bodies diseased; that thoy havo made up
forty-eight thousand prescriptions, and performed
wonderful things, by curing numberless cases of
mtarrh and throat diseases, by a new, improved
md approved treatment! . .. _ _
About,two;years ago thelman segar and to?
bacco manufacturers formed an associa lian for the
purpose of agitating a question of. reform in the
law regarding tho manufacturo of tho soothing
treed; their efforts, however, have'ended in smoko,
for at a meeting held yesterday they resolved to
rive up the game and break up tho organization,
which waa duly done, and tho bahnco on hand in
the treasury was presented to t" * Gorman Hos?
pital Fund Society.
Upwards of forty thousand ? 'ara have been
subscribed for tho purpose of erecting a new ma?
sonic temple in Brooklyn; but as a much larger
amount is required, a committee has boon appoint?
ed to visit all of tho ether lodges and solicit addi?
tional subscriptions. All of tho lodges will respond
promptly and hand in their donations cheerfully
and on the aquore. '
Although the Academy of Music is not yet quito
completed, we are to be favored with a snort aea
son of Italian opera, to begin next Monday at the
French theatre. , The^nma donna is a young lady
named GIODETTA ALTTEBI, a young lady who has
created no little eenaation in Italy, Germany,
Russia, South America and elsowhere. She ?B said
to bo equal to SONTAG, GRISI and MALTSEAN, and
will moke her debut herc as Violetta in Traviata.
It is rather late for the opera season to begin; yet'
music hath channa, and the -opera goora are de?
lighted accordingly. 1
Gold is looking up, business raming a little, and
cotton rather active. The countenances of busi?
ness men are not so downcast as they have been,
and it is confidently hoped that the good time
corning is near at hand. It is timo for a change
to take place; there has never been such a dull
business season in tlfis oily, , and thousands of
merchants havo not dono enough to pay the ex?
penses of their establishments.
Tho weather grows more and more Bpring-like
overcoats are dispensed with-rain falls instead of
BROW, and old winter is in disgrace as glorious
summer throws out a hint of its approach. ?

SPREAD THE TRUTH.
Some medical men insist that it ls undignified to ad
?rtise a remedy, however-valuable it moy bo. Queer
?osoning this. It is like saying that an article which
ie world needs should be hid in a corner-that benefits
ad blessings may bo too widely diffused-that the means
[ protecting and restoring health should bo a close
lonopoly, and not accessible to all. The argument is
ad. It ia worso'than that; it is inhuman. Suppose
[OSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS-an absolute spe
Ifio for dyspepsia, biliousness and nervous debility
ad never been known beyond the repertoire of tho
Lculty, what would have been "the consequence? Li
tead of curing and invigorating millions, the good effects
f the preparation would have beon confined to a rom
arative few. There is the highest authority for saying
tiat light should not bc hid under a bushel; that what
ver is excellent should bo placed as a city on ahill,
.'here all men can takj cognizance of it It is upon this
rinciple that tho BITTERS have, been advertised and
ontinue to be advertised in every newspaper of any
irominence in tho western h?misph?re, and that the
pontancous testimonials in its favor have boen trans?
ited into all written languages. Thousands enjoy par
act health to-day who would be languishing on beds of
ic linea a if the newspapers had not spread the truth with
egord Lo this unequalled lnvigorant and corrective far
nd wide. Suppose profit has been reaped from this pub
tclty.; Is that any argument against lt? If tho public
lealth has been protected; If lives have been saved; if
he feeble havo boen strengthened and the sick restored,
.Teat good has been accomplished; and who so mean as
o grudge to exertions thus directed their fair reward?
