The contents of the several volumes are as follows:-Vol. I. comprises the correspondence of Hamilton prior to the establishment of the present government (from 1769 to 1789): Vol. II. embraces the residue of the writings of this period, a series very essential to a correct knowledge of our early political history: Vol. III. contains the papers which relate to the organization and conduct of the fiscal department, its revenue and public credit: Vol. IV. will include the period from 1789 to 1795, embodying the papers designated as "Cabinet Papers," comprehending the most important part of Washington's administration: The "Editor's Drawer" is another novelty, and is very attractive.

Truth and Romance: VIII. Canzonet: IX. Composition: X. Clerical Disfranchisement -the Virginia Constitutional Convention: XI. The Exponents of American Letters: XII. Intellectual Cultivation. THE "Temple" (Harrisburg, Pa.) is a magazine devoted to Masonry, literature, and science, edited by B. Parke, Esq., and Professor C. E. Blumenthal, of Dickinson College. The several numbers of this new journal which have come to hand, display an unusual degree of tact, skill, and information on the part of the editors.
