Reviews of New Books, Co, 1871, 12mo., pp. xii, 488, ‘hen the poet Kogers dryly remarked of the sec- hand wits of his time, “the world 1s far gone in " dotage,’”’ he prefigured the class of books to ch Dr. Mackenzie's life of Scott belongs. To say we have been much «disappointed in the book ich the preliminary nourish of trumpets over the in any sense new no reader of that strikingly | |! need to be told. Nor is tt a skilful condensation Pithe cid, smce exigencies of publication or some PRer cause, have left upon the whole execu- ib p of the book such marks of haste as no reputable ter ought willingly to be gulity of. ‘The ‘hor begins his preface by informing us, in much ppr-workea adjectives, that he has atuempted to Date a “reliable” and “popular” biography. He gS us, on page 203, that the Dame aux Camélias, i tue younger Dumas, fs “the apotheosis of a pro- } onal impure,” whatever that may mean.

OF course we nave no right to expect I ginality in what must be, from the nature of the , & mere compilation; but we can find no reason heralding the book as contributing valuable per- hal reminiscences of Scott, when the whole inter- firse between Dr. Mackenzie and Sir Walter was fined to two interviews of « few minutes each, at | ich nothing notable occurred, one teking place in \pland, when Mackenzic was sixteen years old, and ther in London, when he had reached the age fF twenty-two.

Lord Byron is called “that wayward yaude—himself a monarch of song.’ Typographi- al errors, such as the omission of connecting words, e disagreeably frequent.

He was run after yy lords and ladies and haunted by nobles of ever! degree, to whom he felt obilged to stow every cour- sy and hospitality.

Lady Scott well characterized the ouerous hospi tality to which Sir Waiter and tis family were made victims by saying that “Abbotsford was very like a farge hotel, except that people did mot pay. The Beale of expenditure was, for a considerable time, at the rate of about ten thousand pounds a yea Walter Scott was in the chronte habit of “discount. Ing” the future, and raising mohey on books yet io be written, He had at one time almost unlimited faith in his capacities, aud told his friend Words. worth that “he could easily make any amount of Money that he required.” He did make an enormous amount—£15,000—vy his poems alone, which Emerson has cavauerly styled « rhymed airectory of Svotian¢ 000 from “Waverly,” more — from ob Roy? and pull more = from “Guys Manneriug; the three novels having produced for their author £65,000, Over three hundred thousand dollars for three fictions, and all in the space of less than twenty years! When writing “Woodstock”? Scott ‘wrote that ne had turned off a volume tn fifteen daya, gnd thought that, “for a bet,”? he could have done it fn ten. “A volume, at the cheapest,’ he calculated (thia wos afier the sale of the novels had fallen of greatly), “1s worth @ thousand pounds. This is work- atthe rate of twenty-four tonsand pounds per an. num,”, No wonder the strained bow snapped at last. Here iaaslight sketch of Scott's appreciation of Lord Byron:— During this tour he first read ‘“Bnglish Bards and ~ Boottish Reviewers,” in wich the noble and youth- fui author, Who had “ran a muck’’ at the principal writers of the day, did not spare Scott. Little diag he think when saying that Scott was “Apollo's venal son” because he accepted “just ‘half a crown per |ine" for his popular poetry, that the time was at hand when he, loo, would accept ‘payment for ms lines, chader with the publisher to oblain @ good price, and receive £15,000 In ail. Scott wrote that “this whelp of a young Jord Byron,” when he attacked bun for accepting £1,000 for a poem, Was interiering with is private affairs, But m the same satire the balm of Giiead (to Speak familiarly) was that Jeffrey caught it fer more verely, and that, a itteriy sneering at Words- Worth, Southey, Colertd| Montgomery and many others, Byron complimented Scott on possessin “powers that mock the aid of praise,” and woulk be known, perhaps, when Albion is no more, To quote @ phrase from @ well-known message, the ewstead pill was “‘siigar-coated. ‘ The method adopted to co Pproof-sheet reguiarly stricken off of each page. One of these was forwarded to Scott by his trasty @nd confidential inend, Jonn Ballantyne, who had already acted as amanuensia tn copying all the nov- eis for the press. The alterations made in the proots by Scott were by Ballantyne’s own hand copled upon the other proof-sueet for the use of the printers, So that even the corrected proof-sheets Of the author were never seen in the printing office, We close with citing a passage descriptive of the ij entertainment at Abbotsford of a lady not unknown bo fame:— ‘When Scott was in London in Aprii, 1820, to “Kips Warter Scott: Tae Srory or His Lr Shelton Mackenzie.

The hint was taken. The March'oness spoke to the other ladies, and the millionnaire was soothed. She did not remain forthe usual three days—the rest day, the dressed day and the pressed day—but departed in -great state and many carriages next morning. She subsequently told Stuart Newton, “I remember tt was When those horrible women were there, Sir Waiter was very kind and did all in his power; but I could not stay in the’ house with them.”? The excuse for them, if any, was their be- lief that, in her person, Scott had paid an undue deference to mere wealtn, LITERARY CHIT-CHAT. ‘THE SM(THSONIAN INSTITUTION has just published a new work on the much-discussed subject of eth- nology, entitled “Systems of Consanguinity and Aimnity of the Human Family,”’ by Lewis H.

In this city the bonds sold on the street at 11244 in the morning, but closed finally at 112 a 112. GOLD TRREGULAR—112% A 11235 A 112%. The gold market opened weak upon the discovery that some of the “pool” had sold out on the rest, doubtless through a fear that the government ope- rations this week in the way of gold disbursements, both in payment of the September interest and in public sale at the Sub Treasury, would be too much for clique manipulation. As a consequence gold dropped from 112% to 11274, and the rate for cash goli relaxed from 3-16 per cent to 1-64 and “flat.” Subsequently it was reported that aew par- ties had been induced to take the place of those who had abandoned the “pool,’’ and a reaction en- sued, gold rising to 112%%, and the terms for the use of gold to-morrow, alter hardening to '% and 5-32, closed with the latter figure bid for more.
