Enlarged Edition. Charleston : Printed by Joseph Walker, Agent, corner Meeting and Market streets. 1867. This book, of ovor 800 pages, is by far tho finest piece of typographical mechanism we have seen issued in this city, and reflect? much credit on the gentleman whose imprimatur it boars. The arrangement, selection of types for head lines, etc., is very tasteful ; type, ink and paper, all of tho best ; tho binding also a master-piece of its kind. The book consists of the ono formerly used by this congregation, with some additions, taken chiefly from the new collection of Sei vices recently, put forth by a number of the leading Unitarian Ministers of England. "Tho only important alteration," says tho Preface, "other than this, is in the directions as to posture during worship. It has been -thought advisable to recommend kneel? ing during prayer, as more devotional than stand? ing ; and standing during praise, as moro suitable and natural than sitting." THE CHRISTIAN H nra AL,-Hymns with Tunes for the Services of thc Church, compilen and edited by Bev. Frank SewalL Philadelphia : J. B. Lippincott & Co., 1867. Charleston ; J. M. Greer. This is a very neat collection of hymns and tunear which should-- find n --place in every I kristian household. The hymns ore divided into two parts, the first comprising those on the Incar? nation and Redemption, arranged in the order of the Gospel Narrative, ox tho Christian year; tho second containing General and Occasional Hymns, arranged occording to their topics. The materials of this volume, says tho editor in' tho preface, have been collected from the wide range of English, German and Latin sacred poetry and harmony, both old and now. To a number of hymns of genuine excellence, endeared and fa? miliar to us from long usage, and wedded to iheir qnaint but pleasant old melodies, the compiler bas added many "beautiful modern English hymne and tunes, together with a good number of celebrated German hymns, in most cases translated in their original metres, and set to their proper chorals. Versions of a number of tho old Latin Hymns, tho favorites of many ages, have also been introduced, and these, with the German translations and chorals, are, it is behoved, now for the first time made accessible to singers of sacred music in this country. A number of the translations and hymns are original, and have never before been pub? lished. Among the Latin hymns we regret to miss the Dies Ira; and Slabat Maier, but aro thankful for others of equal excellence, and but little less re? nown, as THOMAS AQUINAS' Pangc lingua gloriosi, BERNARD DE CLUNT'S Salve Caput CTU^ntatum, This collection is for purposes of devotion only, not for the gratification of the scholar. There is on almost entire absence of historical or explana? tory notes of any kind ; such as we have in tho rich collection of Archbishop TRENCH'S Early Latin Hymns, and in many other works on hymnoldgyv The collection from the best German hymns is well made. Here also we of course miss some we .should have been pleased to have had, but Mr. SEWAixhas presented:us; with excellent trans?a-' tiona of a number of hymns, . approved and widely sung by the entire German Church. Among them LUTHER'S "Eine feste Burg ist unser Gott;'' PATTE GERHARDT'S "Befiehl du deine Wege," translated by JOHN WESLEY, ; ANGELUS' "Guter Hirto willst du nicht," and GERHARDT'S rendering of "Salve empufc cruenta tum"-"O Haupt voll Blut und Wunden.?' This book, as we have already said, is a decided acquisition for. every refined and educated Chris? tian family in the land! PLUTARCH ou. the Delay of the Deity in Punishing the Wicked. X.,Tised edition, with J?oteg by Professors ' rirH^B. Hacket andt W. S. Tylor. New'-Soik : TL Ap '. picton k Co., 1867 ; Charleston, John Russell. > ' This treatise of the old philosopher, whot was "?J? almost a..Christian," (as the learned WYTTES -BACH speaks of bim,) is , expected to be specially useful to theological students,:as a means of keep? ing up their knowledge of the Greek language, and making still further progress in it.. This treatise of PLUTARCH has been selected, because it boara otra question that most have : been.of oil the most perplexing to the thought fol heathen ; viz : how the impurity, and not unfrequently the signal pros? perity of the wicked, can be reconciled with the .doctrine of a just Providence ; or, in other words,. with the belief of a Deity-who observes the right' .and the wrong of human actions, and governs a world according to the principles ' of.. a righteous moral retribution. The text used is in. .tho main WTTTENBACH'S. AB elaborate treatise on the "Structure and Argu? ment of tho World," precedes the critical land philological notes ; and the question " Had PLU? TARCH any knowledge of Christianity ?"nis answer? ed in the negative in an Appendix. , The typography of the work is excellent, as dif? ferent as can be, from the medias val Greek books. BERLIN AND SANS-SOUOI; OB FREDERICK THE GREAT AND' ! Hts FRIENDS.-An H statical Romance, by-Ii. MnMHach. .New York: D. Appleton * Co. Charleston: John Rus? sen.

Court, Of course FREDERICK is still tho great central figure, round which the other characters are group?e!, as suited, the purpose. of the authoress,-as they-' promised to contribute mor? or less to the dra? matic interest of the work. The chapter relating to VOLTAIRE, . and. his cor? respondence and personal intercourse with the Kjiig,.i8-perhapis the' most interesting part of the voltune. 'Their firstsmeeting is" thus'' sketched by. the authoress : .v.:-..:' . . .'.3.1 -O ? ,i The King awaited Voltaire with impatience, and now he heard the rolling of .carriage.wheels', then the opening of doors, then the sound of voices.! In.' the: first impulse-of joy he sprang from; his' ?ffeet and advanced eagerly to, meet Voltaire, butreach irrpr the t?iroahofa of the door ho stood still ' and considered. "No," said he, "I will not go to meet' him-he would mock st me, perhaps boast of it." He turned back to his chair, and tock up the book' ' he had been reading. And now some one tapped j gently upon' the i door, a servant appeared and" announced "Monsieur Voltaire," and now"a figure stood upon the door sflL , . .', I Thu man,-with' small; contracted chest,' with .?.; back bowed down by old age or infirmities: this man,-with the wondrous countenance, of which no one could decide if it was the face of a satyr or a demigod; whoas eyes flashed with:-faeavmiiy in .spirAtion at one momont,-and ut ?h? n?xtigfpwed with demoniac fire: whose lips were distorted I by" the most frightfulj grimaces or relaxed into tho* most enchanting smiles-this man is Voltaire. ; Ai As Frederick's - glance:met those burning eyes, he forgot al! ?Ase, his royalty, his dignity, even Voltaire's baseness and vanity; he wasio him the spirit of the age, the genius of the. world, and he hastened to meet him, opened his arma wide, and pressed lum. tenderly to: his heart. "Welcome, welcome, my lord and master," said the Hing;1"! receive you, as becomes a pupfl, in my school? room, surrounded by my-bookB, whose mysterious lessons, of ": wisdom, yotv my-teacher,!'will make dear.?' ; >? -, ]? r . ' ";.-. ? ! r \ ltQn the'. contrary, sire," said .Voltaire,, with a soft voice and a most enchanting smile-"on the contrary, you receive me with all the- pomp of royalty seated upon a throne, which is not yours by inheritance, but which you have conquered; upon the. throne of knowledge and learning, crowned with the laurels which the gods conse? crate to heroes and poets. Alas! my..eyes axe dazzled by the lustre which surrounds me. I bow in humility before this lordly head adorned by two royal croons and reigning over two mighty King? doms. - Receive me, sire, aa ari ambassador from the realm of poets, whose crown you wear with so muoh grace and dignity." jr . ; Frederick smiled kindly. "Lat nie be. only* a - burgher and your comrade-in-arms in the republic of letters," said fae.. "I hold republics generally an impossibilities, but I believe m a republic of iot ters, and I have a right republican heart, striving.: after liberty, equality, and brotherly love. Be member this, friend, and let us forget at Sans? souci that your comrade is sometimes the first: servant of a kingdom. And now, tell .me how you . have borne the fatigues of the journey, and if yon hare been received at every station with the mark? ed, attention I had commanded.** ' . . I ' .'.Tes, sire, everywhere in Prussia I have felt myself almost oppressed, humbled, by your great? ness. How great, how mighty, how powerful, must your majesty be, when I sin BO distinguished^: so-honored, simply because I enjoy your, fsvorl This honor and this pleasure alone have - given, me strength fox my journey. My friends in Paris-1 thought it absurd and ridiculous for me, in my", .miserable condition, t-o attempt so fatiguing a iourney. But, sire, I was not willing to die before ; bad once more sat at the feet of this great anti yet simple man, this exalted yet genial philoso? pher. I wish to revive and quicken my sick heart at this fountain of wit and wisdom. I come, therefore, not as Voltaire, but as the tragio Scar ion 'of your century, and. throughout ,my whole .Journey I have called myself the 'Invalid of the-' King af Prossia." " And plenty more in the same strain, each of the two interlocutors doubtless tbinlring all the while that he was bamboozling the other. '" ~ We ?ave hi a previous review spoken of tkie gen? eral character of tho works of Mrs. CLARA MUKST. This is of the same interest, pleasing the reader all the more j b6*?use he is flattering himself white reading it, that ho is engagod in the very laudable pursuit of acquiring historical knowledge. And, mawnuoh.-.as these novels treat of a historical po riod, which would otherwise remain a sealed book to the great majority of American readers, we aro perfectly willing to repress any lingering doubts wo may have, as to the propriety of this very pleas? ant, but not otherwise altogether unobjectionable mode of pursuing historical researches. MCSS? aso His mes : A Record of the Adventures of j that reno wu od Partisan Hanger, John 8. Mosby (Colo? nel C. S. A.), including - the exploits ot Smith, Chap? man. Richards, Montioy, Turner, . Russell, Glassoook, and thc men under them. By J. Marshall Crawford, of Company B. New York : G. W. Carleton & Co. Charleston : John Russell. This is essentially a Virginia book. The heroes, whose exploits are hore celebrated, are nearly all Virginians, and their sphere of action was almost exclusively confined to a few counties on the South? ern slope of the Blue Bidge, in Virginia. There aro likenesses in the book of all the more distin? guished officers and scouts connected with MOSBT'S command; but we do not think the work will have much of a circulation beyond* the borders of the Old-Dominion, THE SHENANDOAH ; os Tax LAUT COFTFDEBATE CBDXSEB, by Cornelius E. Hunt, (one of her officers). New York: G. W. Carleton A Co. Charleston: John Russell. Instead of reading this book, and writing are view, we prefer to copy a notice of it. from the last number of tho Hound- Table, which we h?vo no reason to consider other than just : The age is rich in puerile books, and the public has grown very lenient, but this is even below the poorest endurable standard of weakness and folly. ? mere transcript of the log of tho Shenandoah might have historical valuo and serve a possible future use: but the "heavy lightness"; ana ''seri? ous vanity" of an attempt like Air. Hunt's are fit for nothing but the paper makers. There has got to be so preposterous a deluge of sketches and personal "travels," "reminiscences," and the like, and readers have accepted them so tolerantly, thai it really seems to be forgotten that, before rushing into print, there is some propriety in learning how to write English. A' sailor'may be pardoned, perhaps, for not being a literary purist, .and wo might forgive occasional inelegances if they were redeemed by vigorous style and interesting ; inci? dent. But the latter essentials, tire precisely those in which Mr. Hunt's book, is conspicuously deficient. The few striking passages which befell the Soaking, . alias the Shenandoah, the author, with uniform address; contrives to make dull and commonplace in tho narration; while ?he staple of the cruise, devoted as it chiefly was to destroying blubbery, but otherwise inoffensive, old whalers, can only be read with a mixture of ennui and indignation which ia anything but agree? able. The attacks, too, upon Captain Waddell, whether justified by facts or not, have a sinister look, for we do not like to find a man assailing his superior officer, whatever the cause, when the lat? ter is placed by circumstances in a defenceless po? sition, and the hearing of his case is thus ren- ? derod an altogether ex parle one. "Tho book is substantially trivia!, school-boyish, and, worse than all for this kind of book, surprisingly dull;. and the dash of malevolence .which, like the sting of Martial's epigrams, winds up the tale, leaves an impression as unfavorable to tho author's gener? osity as the j impression previously made is unfa? vorable to his taste, culture, -and literary capacity. Trash of this.sort, whether written by Northerners or Southerners, 'has been dealt with far too light? ly, and it is high time a little truth were spoken of it;' if only , to warn publishers to bo chf.rv of the credit of their imprint, and to have som.? little re? spect for the patience, as well as the intalligenee ? of their readers. .?. .. ? ? r: j' | ' THE BHXIT.AK.Tr RECONS'BJBUCTION BILL. .' _ " " ' _ i THE MISSISSIPPI PETITION-ARGUMENT IN THE CA8T '_ I The following extracts contain the points made in the argument in support of the p?tition of the State of Mississippi, enjoining the execution of ?the Military. Reconstruction: Bill;; which was offer? ed in the Supreme Court of tho.-,United States on Friday Hst. jj Tho. great length of thi?, argument precludes our'publishing i I' in" fulL It will" bo de? livered before the-Court on Friday next. After stating tho terms of tho act, the argument says : - The first questiohis, do the acts of Congress be? fore referred to violate the Federal Constitution ? Such was the opinion-of the President of the Unit? ed States, aa expressed in his veto messages,' and we shall bet.state the supposed points of 'conflict without extended argument. The-acts in question violate the compact with Georgia of 1802, the ordi? nance of 1787, made- under the compact with "Vir? ginia, both of which compacts were extended to Mississippi, and .made ''unalterable'', andi "final and conolnsive" by Congress and so accepted by -thu State. These acts annihilate a State; they de? stroy the State Constitution of Mississippi of 1817, accepted by Congress, aa well as the amend? ed State Constitution of 1865, established by' the people. . If there 'was any fatal irregularity-, in the State constitution of 1865. which is denied, that would not territorialize the! t?tate or abolish the Stated constitution of 1817. These acts deprive the State.: of that representation in the two Houses of Con? gress constantly and. forever- secured, by the Con? stitution. They substitute military rule for that of the civil hw; they repeal the right of habeas corpus in tune .of .peace; they deprive men of life, liberty and property without due process of law; they subject chem to arrest without warrant found? ed on affidavit: tho y deprive them of the safeguard of a grand and petit jury. If all this may bo right? fully done, then these acts may be constitutional. Second.-Tho next question hs. are there proper, parties to this suibas cxi'mplainantand defendanta ? The Constitution declares that "the judicial power shall extend to all cases in law and equity arising' -under this Cons litut ion, tho .- laws .of the United States, and treaties made.or which shall bo made: under their authority:" And rt also declares, that "in. all caaes affecting ambassadors, other public ministers, and those in which a State -is a party, the Supreme Court shall have original jurisdic? tion.'' This is a case in eauity,.as will be shown hereafter. It arises under {berConstitution, and. a State is party- complainant.' That a State may soe by original bill' in the Supreme Court of the United' States has been settled by this Court. . . It is important, however,- to> consider;-whether the President ,pf the United States can'-be made a party - de f?ndaUtiio tivis- b?llj-inaBmnch' a's there is : no precedent directly to the point. Tot it is' be? hoved ; the question bas been yirtuaPy settled I by very high, authority, - It is important, in thi3 con? nection, to mark the distinction between what axe called pohtioal powers and suchias aremjnwterial. In the'exercise of d?scr?t?onary of political powers courts will nob undertake to cohtrol the action of officers r, but; not sb: with regard to. ministerial -duties, lil tile exercise of which "noone is above the law,.however exalted his-position, r Fortunate? ly wo have neither.a King, nor ah Emperor; nor a .Parliament who axe omnipotent or above the Con? stitution. -. ;"''' ' : .-'.'Jw.'.

" Yet in the ase of MabryMs. Madison, 1 Cranch, it was decided that the acts <5f tho Secretary, of State were the acts of tho President, and toot the Secre? tary might"be subjected iw.the process ot manda itmi: why would ii not just as well lie against the President.-, It .would ?be strange, indeed^ io hold that the subordinate ia liable and may be sued tar acts which are- the acta of his prmmpa?;--attd yat that the principal is not liable aiVi cannot bs sub? jected to-the process bf law. .'Even more recently this Court baa decided that officers of .tho Execu? tive Department ar? hable to the procesB of the Court. (See Kendall vs. Stockston, l? Peters, 524; United States w. Guthrie, 17 Howard; 854.) The case of Ellis vs. Earl Gray, 6 Simons, 2?4, is a lead? ing case in. England, .and- bas been approved itt thia Court. In tfaatcssef ft "wat'deciaeorthat the Lords of the Treasury, constituting the prominent department of tho Executiva Government, might be enjoined by the Judicial Department. In that country the King is suppoaed to be above the law, auclit^s tho fountain of justice, yrthia immediate country thodi?e*id^teio^6t above tho law; it is above him, and heneo he muet be subject-?b i restraints- * .?.. ? *. . s> .. Third.-Does tho bill present a case proper for the interposition of this Court ? Tho Constitution gives to the Federal Judiciary equity jurisdiction, and it is a familiar principle that wherever juris? diction is givou over a particular subject or a par? ticular branch of jurisprudence, it is ample for all purposes connected with the subject or the branch of jurisprudence.' Therefore the jurisdiction of this court is ample to take cognizance to tho full extent over all subjects of equity jurisdiction. Wo have then bat to present such a case as equity would take cognizance of, and the relief will be granted to the utmost extent of the powers of a court of equity. Thc great distinction between remedies at law' and equity is this: a court pf law gives redress or damages for injuries, and a court of equity will prevent their occurrence. . The one con do nothing more than give com? pensation in damages, while tho other will save the party from a resort to the remedy for damages by preventing the mischief. And even if there be a remedy at law which is inadequate, a court of equity will tako jurisdiction. But in this case there is no remedy at law. It is a case in which equity alone can ?ive relief. If there be no reme? dy, then the Federal Constitution is not, os de? clared, the suprome Hw of tho land, since a! mere majority in Congress may exclude States, as it has done in this instance ; it may blot out States, and State constitutions, and State governments; or it may assume and exercise the absolute power to govorn them. If this may be done in the South? ern States, it may just as well be done in other States, and the will of a majority in Congress is the supreme law in all cases whatsoever. The peo? ple of tho States which framed the Federal Gov? ernment, surely did uot think it possible that thoy were creating a power that .could destroy their ex? istence as States, and yet this has been dono with four of the original States that created the Gov? ernment. This bill presents several grounds, on either of which a court of equity may rightfully take juris? diction and giro the relief sought. * Fourth-AB this legislation must have proceeded on the idea that the southern states ?re not i???i bers of the Union, let us, in the last place, inquire whether they were in the Union during the rebel? lion, have been in ever since, and are so now. Ti they have continued to be and are so now, then surely these acts have no constitutional basis. The union of the States under the Articles ol Confederation of 1778, as well as under the Consti? tution, .vas a "perpetual Union," and could not bt dissolved by act of Congress or the attempted withdrawal of any portion of the people of a State. If Congress cannot dissolve the union, it cannot exclude any Slate from the Union, for if it mai exclude one State,' it may exclude any number o: States, and thus-accomplish a result forbidden tn the- Constitution. The secession ordinances, s< far. as their legal effect wes concerned, were men nullities. .These ordinances were nullities whei enacted, and they acquired no legal or constitu tiona! force by subsequent events. The assom blage which onacted these ordinances had no mor. legal or constitutional power than popular meet in gs. They were not only illegal, but insurrection arv. The State constitutions, framed under thesi ordinances, were milli ties diso, because,the Federa "Constitution-expressly declares, in imperative lon guage, that "this Constitution shall be the su preme law of the land, anything in the Constitu tion or laws of any State to the contrary notwith standing." L The s?cession ordinances boing nullities, th subsequent State constitutions based upon thei were nullities, 'because the constitutions of all th States are required, as we have seen, to be alway subordinate to the Federal Constitution. The sui sequent so-called Legislatures and Governors, an all other officers, oivii and military, acting nude these insurrectionary proceedings, whether t Montgomery, Bichmond, the State capitals or els? where, had no legal or constitutional anthont; not "only for the above reasons, but also becaut they Were ali required first to take an oath to sui port the Constitution of the United States, I fact, the whole proceedings, commencing with th secession ordinances, down to the last act of ti drama, were part and parcel of a great insurrei tion, wholly illegal,. and totally forbidden by th Constitution.. But surely an unsuccessful insu recition in any State, although it might subjoct tl individuals concerned to punishment, could' ni force any State from the Union, : confer- any sue power on Congress, or effect in any way tho Fet eral relations of the State. Although Congress can suppress insurrectioi whether of ai minority or majority of the people : any State, yet it cannot declare war against a Stat or treat it as a foreign Power, or coerce dr punii a State in its corporate capacity. Such a powe las' shown by the Madison Papers, recording tl proceedings of the Convention which framed tl Federal ' Constitution, was then asked from th Convention, and expressly refused. The princip reasons for this refusal were: First-Because (unlike tho Confederation of 177 the Constitution acted only on individuals, andu upon States. Second-Because the power to suppress inst rection in any State, and punish the individui concerned, waa sufficient. And third-The Convention would not errs power to Congress to declare- war against a Sta or punish a Stator-or inflict any pains,, penalti es, forfeitures upon it, because such an author would carry with it tho power to expel a State : d?finit ehr from the .Union, or to treat it as a cc quered foreign proviace. The "Union of all t States under the Constitution was intemded to indissoluble, either by State or.;Fedornlanthorit We know that tho refusal'of the. Convention whi tramedthe'Constitution to gnuit to Congress t power to make war-upon a State, br to coero State in its corporate capacity, has been most i roneoualy cited as justifying the resistance in t South to the armies of tho Union; but those' mies, as expressly declared by Congress, did i march to destroy States,..but,. under the pov granted by-'the Constitution, fito .execute the lit of tho 'Union ' and suppress" insurrections," i could tho performance of these duties by the Fe? eral Government be arrested by any State law ordnance whatsoever. . - . ^--Indeed, not only did Congress never, declar? w bu1; it commenced (before Congress was convent under the proclamation of President Lincoln, suppress azt insurrection, and was ao continued' Congress throughout the conflict. Similar vie were set forth by President Jackson, after the cession ordinance of South. Carolina, in his gr proclamation of 1832, carried out by the force bil that date, and by the army and navy under the cc maud ot Scott and Elliott ati -Charleston. Si ?were the views expressed-by Daniel'Webster in .incomparable - speeches of -that date ; such w the opinions of Henry. Clay, Martin Van Buren, i all the Union patriots of that date ; 'such was action of /Congress in suppressing the whiskey s?rfection. of; 1J98??and ?the lObnstsadrrevolt 1807,' although sanctioned by the L?gislature ? Governor of Pennsylvania ; such'the action of Government in suppressing the South Carolina cession of 1832 ; such was the action of Congi and of Presider. L Lincoln throughout the rec rebellion, and buch has been the -uniform opir of this Court.; Congress- never: did declare against a State, or attempt to punish a State exercise any such power, unless indeed ita rec action withln:the last-few .weeks may ;be regar as the exertion of such a power,- If the peo whether few or inany, a majority or a minority secession or. o t h er wiso. attempted, by force, te [struy tha Government or,, dissolve;the; ?nioi 'was * caserof ^insurrection; to 'sT?ppre??'

W. L. SKABKEY, B. J. WALKEB, Counsel lor Complainant. THE RUMOR OF WAR. The Paris Bourse has been almost in a state of panic, over the publication of the secret treaties of Prussia with the Southern States of Germany. Bismarck has thrown off the mask. It looks as if he were working to construct an. imperial throne for King "William, Austria and all Germany to be invited to the Grand Parliament. Just as soon as M. Bouher replied to M. Thiers in the French Chambers, that the Western Powers would readily form an alliance to check the march of Prussia, Bismarck proclaims to France and Europe that Prussia is bound to keep straight forward in her course, let the Western Powers do what they will. It looks os if Napoleon had been a second: time overreached by the sagacious but bold statesman of the North; whereas, before he had suffered Na? poleon to think himself a mediator between Prus? sia and Austria, now he tells him openly that he submitted only to begin anew ? with the first favorable opportunity. The river Maino is not,, then, the boundary of North Germany; Prussia, under those treaties with the Southern States, commands their entire military force, threatens France on her eastern boundaries, and defies her to interfere with the gigantic plans that I have been mapped out. England can do nothing. Russia cannot but have serious apprehensions about it. Austria may be willing to form an' alli? ance with France to resist the progress of Prussia, although she was last year kicked out of So J them Germany herself, and need not be sensitive to any additional insult now. unless she chooses. It has. boen thought that the great Exhibition would com? mand peace for this year, at any rate; that may be the very reason why Bismarck crowds Napoleon as ! he does. The latter could hardly attend to ari { Exhibition of all nations and carry, on a war at the same time and do justice to "both, and this the I Prussian Minis ter understands.-Boston Poet.
