Published by HARPER & BROTHERS, Franklin Square, New York. Discourses preached in Collegiate Chapels by the Right Rev. WILLIAM LAWRENCE, Bishop of the Diocese of Massachusetts. 16mo, $1.25. Bishop Lawrence gathers under this felicitous title a group of discourses which cannot fail to attract general attention. They are thoughtful, sympathetic, vivid appeals to the good sense, the sweet reasonableness, and serious thought of men. Young men, especially, will respond to the direct, manly, stimulating qualities of this book, though its interest and helpfulness are by no means restricted to them. The discourses are short, specific in aim, and are pleasantly charged with the agreeable, winning element of the writer's personality. JOAN OF ARC. By FRANCIS C. LOWELL. Large crown 8vo, $2.00. Mr. Lowell has made a thorough, impartial study of the career of the Maid of Orleans, and he presents the results in a book which cannot fail to impress readers by its evident effort to get at all the facts, and to state them in a way that will cause his book to harmonize in some good degree with the Life of Joan of Arc, which will eventually form the standard and final account of her. Mr. Lowell's review of the trial scene gains great value from his experience as a lawyer,— and the whole book will be found worthy of very careful study. BAYARD TAYLOR. In the series of American Men of Letters. By ALBERT H. SMYTH. 16mo, gilt top, $1.25. This is a careful, appreciative, sympathetic account of the literary career of Bayard Taylor, whose large and highly diversified achievements entitle him to an honorable place in the ranks of American Men of Letters. The hardships, struggles, indomitable perseverence and steady growth of Taylor's literary life are well described; and the crowning touch of pathos is added in his sudden death at the moment of assured success, when, by virtue of his achievements in letters and his high character, he held the office of United States Minister at Berlin. THE SPIRIT IN LITERATURE AND LIFE. By JOHN P. COYLE, D.D. Crown 8vo, $1.50. This book will in some good degree commemorate the spirit and service of Dr. Coyle, by whose death the pulpit of America lost one of its noteworthy figures. It is a strong, thoughtful book, worthy to rank with Dr. Gordon's volume on "The Christ of To-Day," which has made so profound an impression, and with Dr. Denison's deeply interesting study of "Christ's Idea of the Supernatural." In other words, it is a book representing well the type and tendency of modern religious thought. THE PARSON'S PROXY. A Novel. By KATE W. HAMILTON, author of "Rachel's Share of the Road." 16mo, $1.25. Mrs. Hamilton here tells a tale of the Southern mountain region, where primitive conditions still hold. Thither a young preacher comes to live; but the hero of the story is a rough native who injures the parson, and afterwards thinks he must atone for it by taking his place. He preaches once or twice while the parson is recovering, and becomes a thorough Christian; and later makes a supreme sacrifice in the preacher's behalf. The dialect and dialogue are good and faithful, and there is a manliness about the tale that wins the reader's admiration. It is a vigorous, readable novel, and may well enjoy a good degree of popular favor. HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN & COMPANY, BOSTON. MACMILLAN & COMPANY'S NEW BOOKS. NOW READY.

I looked carefully through the materials which she had left behind her; found many things which I remembered, and others of which I knew little or nothing; and perceived that the amount of her unpublished verse was considerably in excess of what I had surmised. The result is that I now present to the reader a rather large volume, and not, as I expected, a small one."— Preface. GERMAN SONGS OF TO-DAY.

MAREY, Member of the Institute and of the Academy of Medicine; Professor at the College of France; author of "Animal Mechanism." Translated by ERIC PRITCHARD, M.A. With 200 illustrations. Vol. 73, International Scientific Series. 12mo, cloth, $1.75. The present work describes the methods employed in the extended development of photography of moving objects attained in the last few years, and shows the importance of such researches in mechanics and other departments of physics, the fine arts, physiology, and zoölogy, and in regulating the walking or marching of men and the gait of horses. THE SUN. By C. A. YOUNG, Ph.D., LL.D., Professor of Astronomy in Princeton University. New and revised edition, with numerous illustrations. International Scientific Series. 12mo, cloth, $2.00. Since the original publication of this book, in 1881, great advances have been made in our knowledge of the sun; and although, in subsequent editions, notes and appendices have kept the work fairly up to date, the author has deemed it best to thoroughly revise it, embodying the notes in the text, and rewriting certain portions. This edition is therefore representative of the solar science of to-day, including important spectroscopic discoveries which have been made during the revision. THE SONGS AND MUSIC OF FROEBEL'S Prepared and arranged by SUSAN E. BLOW. Fully illustrated. Vol. 32. International Education Series, 12mo, cloth, $1.50. This is the second and concluding volume of Miss Blow's version of Froebel's noted work which laid the foundation for that important branch of early education, the kindergarten. The first volume, "The Mottoes and Commentaries," may be designated as the Teacher's or Mother's book, and "The Songs and Music," the present volume, as the Children's book. In the latter, many of the pictures have been enlarged in parts to bring out the details more distinctly. New translations are made of the songs, eliminating the crudities of poetic composition that have appeared in the literal imitations of Froebel, and new music is substituted where the original has been discarded.

This graphic picture of quaint characters belongs to the class of specialized American fiction which has been headed by the work of Miss Wilkins, Mr. Cable, Colonel Johnston, Mr. Garland, and others. The author has studied the peculiar and almost unknown life of the laborers in a Pennsylvania mining and manufacturing town with a keenness of observation and an abundant sense of humor which will give her book a permanent place among the genre studies of American life. COURTSHIP BY COMMAND. By M. M. BLAKE. 16mo, cloth, 75 cents. This interesting historical romance presents Napoleon in a new light. THE STORY OF THE INDIAN. By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL, author of "Pawnee Hero Stories, ," "Blackfoot Lodge Tales," etc. The first volume in the Story of the West Series, edited by RIPLEY HITCHCOCK. With 16 full-page Illustrations. 12mo, cloth, $1.50. The object of this series is to preserve the picturesque and individual types of a life in the real West which is rapidly fading away, and to offer the romantic stories of the Indian, explorer, cowboy, miner, soldier, and other representative figures in a permanent form. Mr. Grinnell's intimate personal knowledge of his subject has enabled him to draw an admirably graphic picture of the actual Indian, whose home life, religious observances, amusements, together with the various phases of his devotion to war and the chase, and finally the effects of encroaching civilization, are delineated with a certainty and an absence of sentimentalism or hostile prejudice which impart a peculiar distinction to this eloquent story of a passing life.
