The graphic picture sketched in the appendix of the Californian judge administering off-hand justice in primitive fashion, to crowds of litigants assembled at the school-house, on the Plaza of San Francisco, all anxious for speedy rather than scrupulously exact decisions, in as much as labor was valued at "an ounce a day," THESE days of commercial prosperity are a capifurnishes a tolerably distinct idea of the prompt-tal time to tell the way to get rich. The author ness and efficiency of the "judiciary system" which prevailed before the organization of the State Courts under the Constitution, and shows

that the time-honored complaints of aggrieved suitors against the "law's delay" had then and there, at least no just application, and that "Jarndyce and Jarndyce" could have had no parallel in California.

We may also add that this volume possesses a certain value (by no means confined to the

profession) for the information it imparts concerning the peculiar laws and usages of a community with which our relations are of great extent and importance.

The topics, which must be several hundred in number, are by no means confined to Agriculture, but are, to some extent, of a general and miscellaneous character. Indeed, on Scientific Agriculture, the work is quite behind the wants of many farmers of the present day, but to many this will seem no drawback as the book is now intelligible to all. It is illustrated

with woodcuts.

Although the Author is lavish in his praise of
Woman, and has collected many interesting
facts concerning her history, yet his method of
discussion falls far below what his title-page
gave reason to anticipate, and indeed what his
subject demands.

The concluding words of the volume will best explain its character and design:

"If the discussion in the preceding pages shall in any instance convince the youthful reader of the precarious nature of those modern book-revelations, which are somewhat inconsistently given us in books which tell us that all book-revelations of religious truth are superfluous or even impossible; if they shall convince him how easily an impartial doubter can retort with interest the deistical arguments against Christianity, or how little merely insoluble objections can avail against anything; if they shall convince him that the differences with which the assailants of the Bible taunt its advocates, are neither so numerous nor half so appalling as those which divide its enemies; or lastly, if they shall, par avance, in any degree protect those who, like Harrington D—, are being made or are in danger of being made skeptical as to all religious truth, by the religious distractions of the present day,-I shall be well content to bear the charge of having spoiled a fiction or even of having mutilated a biography."

THESE essays by Professor Norton, of Harvard University, have appeared before in various forms, and have been highly esteemed for the clear and manly method, as well as the classic style, in which they are written. though its author is less celebrated as a writer than others we might name, yet there are few Americans who have so full a command of vigorous and elegant language, or who are really entitled to so high a rank. Professor Norton is a defender of Liberal Christianity, and of course, he finds little to commend in Calvinism; but he is more at war with the modern forms of Infidelity, and he assails the German Schools with Among the various theories of the present considerable severity. day, this certainly has the merit of being a novel It is not to be supposed that the writer under- Many personal remarks and allusions of pass-been believed by the "New Church," and conone, though the author alleges that it has long takes to answer all the arguments from philoso-ing interest which appeared at first in the essays cludes by an appeal to the "rational understandphy or criticism, which are urged against Chris- are omitted in this revised edition, the typog-ings of men" for its universal adoption.

manifest a great familiarity with all the recent indicates, fragmentary records of thoughts and
forms of speculation and skepticism, and much feelings, suggested by the varying experience of
skill in the exhibition of them; and the whole
volume bearing unmistakeable marks of much
thought and power, is calculated to excite and
quicken the logical perceptions of the reader.
It may be objected that the work is incomplete,
because it only demolishes the assumptions of
skepticism without establishing the arguments
of Christianity; but the design of the author
was avowedly only to undertake the former, and
to accomplish this is surely an important step
towards the attainment of the latter.
