Literary Gossip
Carlyle has the nerves of his hand so shattered that he cannot write himself. He is obliged to employed an amanuensis.
A gentleman in New York is engaged upon a romance to be called "The Taylors and Walkers." Many of its incidents will be drawn from city life.
A humorous burlesque on the centennial exhibition, entitled "One Hundred Years a Republic—Our Show," is announced. It is illustrated by A. B. Frost.
Mrs. Southworth, who has lately been under the care of an oculist at Yonkers, has recovered her eyesight sufficiently to go to work on her 150th novel.
Eugene Thomson, one of the bankers and brokers of Wall street, New York, is the author of an interesting paper in Scribner's for this month, on "The curiosities of longevity."
A work on "The Free School system of the United States" is to be published in England, from the pen of Mr. Francis Adams, secretary of the National educational league.
Rev. Rufus Wendell of Albany, known to many readers of The Globe, publishes by subscription an American edition of Farrar's Life of Christ, with an appendix containing translations of 491 passages cited by Dr. Farrar from Latin, Greek, Hebrew, French, German and other foreign authors.
The Pawtucket (R. I.) Gazette and Chronicle completes its 50th year on the 12th inst. It will observe its semi-centennial by publishing a fac-simile of the first number, which will be presented to each reader of that paper. It will also publish a full history of its career up to the present time.
The readers of the Atlantic Monthly, besides their frequent opportunities of seeing Mr. Longfellow's latest poems in this monthly, can now avail themselves of the publishers' enterprise and keep constantly before their eyes on the walls of their homes the best portrait of the poet yet made. It is a life size lithographic portrait, executed with singular truthfulness and presenting the poet's head in a very characteristic and pleasing attitude. The arrangements which the publishers make render it impossible to buy the picture separately, but to those who subscribe to the Atlantic it is sent for a small additional sum.
