ut in a philosophical and impartial spirit. How far the learned author has succeeded in his avowed purpose is altogether another matter. Indeed it requires only a glance through these volumes to see that instead of writing in a philosophical and impartial spirit, Dr. Draper is so bitter a partisan, that it seems simply impossible for him to make accurate statements about even the most trivial matters. We may take occasion to pay our respects to Dr. Draper more fully hereafter, and to show how his narration of the causes and events of the war is so colored by partisan prejudice as to render it utterly worthless as history. Books received. From the publishers (Jos. H. Coates & Co., Philadelphia,) we have received the second volume of the translation of the History of the civil war in America, by Comte de Paris. From Geo. W. Harris, of Albemarle, The Confederate soldier, by Rev. J. E. Edwards. These books, and any others which may be sent us, shall have due notice.
