Felt & Ce fo better written ¢ More deeply interesting book n this has appeTed in @ long time. It contains hosophy, unaination and satire, poetry, senti- tt and wit The title, “The Coming Race,” 18 one whjf In any way conveys an adequate idea Ihe boot, and if the author has pictured the only Utepia which ig possible he nas carefully re- ined from painting it with Utopian periections, gives us a beautiful picture in a way so celight- so full of half fun, half earnest, and withal so that we cannot refrain from saying, with Black- d@’s Magazine, that his book is a marvellous It will find thousands of American readers D will be pleased with the vigor with which it with the problems of the day and the charm- way in which they are portrayed and discussed. he book was first published by Blackwood & but the author, if not an American, 1s thor- versed in American affairs. But he deals bh affairs which are so far from bemg American he goes into the bowels of tne earth to find coming race. The descent is a comparatively one—too easy for the wonders which are found the subterranean world—through a shaft ina mine and thence bya voicanic fissure to the id of the Vril-ya. An American is the hero of the bk, even if its author is not an American, and we confess that he was better behaved in the country which he discovered than are many of countrymen in foreign parts, Having made descent into the bowels of the earth he ind himself alone among a new species of m, and in. @ country where the sun never nes. <A few steps from the place where he de his entrance into this wonderful region was pity brilliantly illuminated by lamps, and he was ere received and entertained by the Commissioner Light. The lamps were something like those pently placed in Washington square, but nobody id @ patent on them, and, stranger sull, no money made out of coutracts for lighting up the Pther regions. The men of that wondertul place re like the symbolical images of genil or demons seen on Etruscan vases or limned on the walls of p sepulchres—tall, but not gigantic, and ith bearaless faces singularly beauteous and tran- inexpression. The women were even larger in the men, snd in every way their superiors, essing a greater independence than even Ameri- n women possess, and marrying in a way that Mra, anton and Miss Anthony would certainly approve. hey led an idle, careless itfe, the children doing all e work and the women all the wooing. A hun- a years was the minimum of existence, and vril as the essence of life and of labor, of ease and of jappiness. Beiore the discovery of vril and its application by heans of the vril-staff these people were very much e people above ground. But this potent agency Inangea the whole character of their thoughts and elings and desires. The jvril-etaif is represented hollow, having in the handle several stops, keys r springs, by which its force can be altered, modt- led or directed; so that by one process it destroys, y another it heals; by one it can rend the rock, by nother disperse the vapor; by one it affects bodies, by another it can exercise a certain influ. nce over minds, Our traveller had not been long in the country of the vril-ya before he had an oppor- anity of testing its powers. In his descent ‘om the mine he had been wounded and after- ard fainted away. Vril quickly restored him, and hile he was in the trance or mesmeric state he not poly learned the language of the Vril-ya, but com- municated nis own tongue to them. What a glo- ‘lous consummation this would be for us! The pains pr learning languages would be done away with forever if whenever another tongye was to be com- municated it could be done with vril. But our readers will naturally ask, what is vril? it was an all-permeating fuid, capable of being ‘aised and disciplined into the mightiest ageacy pver all forms of matter, animate or inanimate. It upplied the lamps which lit up the nether world ith a steadier, soiter and healthier light than the tnflammable materials which had been formerly used. It could rend @ way through the most polid substances, It could destroy life and even jovercome armies, at a distance of over five hundred miles, “But,” writes our author, ‘the eifects of tae alleged discovery of tue means to Airect the more terrible force of vril were chiefy re- markable in their influence upon social polity.” As these effects became familiarly known and skilfully ad- poinustered war between the vril-discoverers ceased for tiey gut the art of destruction to. auch perfection as to anni i uperiority in numbers, discipline or military skill.

This gives him occasion remark that if his death had been resolved upon the decree would have run biandly thus:—"Re \t requested that for the good of the community the garnivorous Tish be requested to submit himself for Aisgection.” There is nothing in the upper world to eqnal this unless it be the politeness of a Span- tard who informs you that his house ts yours, and probably robs or murders yon before morning. ‘The part of the bOOK which ts Ukely to receive NEW YORK HERALD, most attention is tte treatment of the “Woman Question.” Among the Vril-ya the women are not only taller and stronger than the men, but more Jearned, except in mechanical arts, and yet more affecuonate and emotional. In love affairs no father 18 allowed to interfere im thelr designs agai the “weaker sex,” and our poor traveller nearly lost his life “for the good of the community” because of the partiality of one or two of these large- limbed beauties, Even in the nether world it ts man’s Intsfortune to be loved by too aggressive wo- men. A man of bashint and modest ways would not like to be taken in hand by the sisters of Sorosis, and yet it was the ill fortune of this American citt- zen, this poor carntyorous Tish, to be loved by the most active and able gy or woman in the College of Sages. This was Zee, the daughter of Aph-lip, the honest and efficient Commissioner ot Light. Here Wooing of the Tish 18a magnificent piece of bur- esque, but the idea of the: spiritual marriage, or affinity, by which she purposed to escape the penalty for intermarriage with one of a strange race Is even more grotesque, This was her proposition, as she dropped on her knees and took the hand of the Tish in her ample palm:— “It 14 true, indeed, sume race wed ; tras aa that which, in our the new it we two cannot wed as those of the the love between us must be pure better, exists between lovers who reunite in life’ beyond that boundary at wrhich the old life ends, But, is it not happiness enough to be together, wedded im mind and in Keurtt Listen, Ihave’ juste eft ‘mye father.

Bo- Hieve that hece my friendship speaks and that my jealousy is silent.” But Tae’s sister, the daughter of the Tur, persisted in wooing him, and consequently he was doomed to death; but Zee opened a way through the rocks and bore him back to the mine, from whence he re- turned to the upper and she to the nether world. Another exquisite bit of satire isthe account of the three portraits in the College of Sages belonging to the prehistoric age. These portraiis are of a philosop! his grandfather and great grandsather. According to tradition the philosopher had lived to a patriarchal age extending over many centuries. In the picture he is attired in a suit of sealy armor, only the feet and hands being exposed. The fingers and toes are very long and webbed, the turoat almost imperceptible, the mouth very wide, the forehead low and rec ing, and the compiexion muddy, The grandfather was not dressed, and had all the peculiarities of the philosopher, only much more exaggerated; while the great grandfather was a magnificent specimen of the Balrachian genus, a glant frog. Among the pithy sayings of the philosopher was this:—‘Hum- ble yourselves, my descendants; the father of your race was a twat (tadpole); exalt yourselves, my de- scendants, for If was the same divine thought which created your father that develops itseif in exalting you.’ And this is the way the argument is, deduced from this Darwinian hypothesis; tt is satire, and yet satire as grave and serious as the Darwinian argument itself. “Pardon me," answered Aph-Lin; “in what we call the wrangling or philosopbicn! period of history, which was at Ns heichtrabont seven thonsand years ago, there was a very t, who proved to the gatiaf: f eh analogical aud auatomte an the to such a mnion iiffering. ‘On the otcr amony may own penple, you would speak with perfect frankness. monte in. structure between an as to show that out of the one mus leveloped the other. | They had some diseases, in ie et to the same parasitica’ common ; they were oth to say, the an bas in rms in the Inte his structure him, but wie from a frog.

In the wrangling period of history whatever one aage as- serted another sage was sure to contradict. In fact, twas a im in that age that the human reason could only be sus- tained aloft by being tossed to and fro in the perpetual mo- tion of contradiction, and therefore another sect of philoso phera maintained the doctrine that the an war no descendant of the frog, but that the frog was cleart: improved development of the an. We cannot give # clearer tdea of the character of the book and the Utopia it depicts than by one or two more extracts. In the first the Tish is speaking of his own world to Aph-Lin and Zee:;— Naturally desiring to represent in the most favoraple co- lors the world from which I came, 1 touched bat slightly, though tndulgeatis, on the antia ated und decaying fostitn ‘of Kurope, in’ order to, expatiate on the present gran And prospective preeminence of that glorious American ly aceks Ite model, and t ad 0 longer Of any use to . rudiment that clearly proves his descent inst this theor: joam.

MR. THOMAS LANDSHER HAS PUBLISHED the “Life and Letters of Wiiliam Bewick, Artist,” im two vol- umes. This Bewick was not ofthe family of the famous wood engraver, but an amateur painter, from whose huge and shaggy masses of curly hair Haydon paintea that startling head of Lazarus, in his immortal picture of “The Raising of Lazarus.'’ ‘The book contains many sketches and anecdotes of Wilkie, Wordsworth, Haydon, Bentham, Hazlitt, &c. ‘The following is new:—“‘When Hazlitt saw Jeremy Bentham enter the garden he paused in his con- versation; looking earnestly out of the window and pointing him out, he satd, “Ah! that is the great lawgiver, Bentham; a remarkable mon; he could make laws for the whole universe; but, as the sailors say, ‘he doesn’t allow for the wind.’”” FRaSER'S MAGAZINE, for some time past edited by J.

Lee,” says, “despite some deficiency of literary apt- tude on the writer's part it is not a wholly unworthy monument to the memory of one of the greatest soldiers and noblest gentlemen that ever spoke the common mother tongue of England and America.” Mx.

THE Saturday Review trusts that the American writers who may use Soule’s ‘Dictionary of English Synonyms” will employ it “somewhat more tntelll- gently and with more discrimination than goes to the use of a Gradus; otherwise American penny-a- lining may become an even more astounding and more sesquipedalian phenomenon than the English branch of the art.’ The Review need not alarm itself; American writers for the press are generally too busy in turning off their work currente ca/amo to trouble themselves seriously about synonyms, and as for “sesquipedalian” words, and sentences the writers in the Saturday Revicw have long since achieved an eminence in that line that ts unap- proachable.

The gold market took a further tmproved turn to day and advanced to 11234 upon the continued pres- sure of the holders of long gold in demanding high loaning rates. The market opened at 112.{, and shortly advanced to 112%; before eleven o'clock, reaching 112}¢ a few minutes after noon. ‘The rates for borrowing at this period ranged from 1-16 to }¢ to Monday, the buik of the business being done above 5-64. Towards the close of business the rate fell off to 1-32, Gold, atter the advance to 1124, was fairly active between that figure and 112%, closing firm at 112!

THE MONEY MARKET exhibited the same ease-—two and three per cent on call—and at the close batances were freely offered at two per cent on mixed collateral to secure the two days’ interest, THE BANK STATEMENT is anfavorable in the sense that it shows a further diminution of reserve, vet the changes are so slight, in view of the present plethora of funds, asto be a matter of Indifference. The first item, loans, shows a further expansion, being the result of the low rates of interest, which imduce the banks to put ont all the money possible, in order to awell their earnings to a proportionate figure, with periods of greater activity in money. The reserve has fallen off over two and @ half millions, and Jiapiiities over one million, making a net loss of reserve of about two and one-quarter millions.
