PROF. MAX MULLER'S lecture "On Missions," just published by the Scribners, with an introductory sermon by Dean Stanley, cannot fail to attract much attention, seeing that it was the first discourse ever delivered in Westminster Abbey by a layman, and that it treats of a subject which has involved an incalculable amount of Christian $20.00 labor. Another important volume, just out at the same house, is the fourth volume of the "Speak. er's Commentary" running from Job, which is treated by the editor, to the Song of Solomon.

NOTES IN SEASON.

THE Harpers have about ready "No Name," in their popular edition of Wilkie Collins's novels; "Lottie Darling," another volume of the Library of Select Novels, and "Ship Ahoy!" a short but entertaining sailor's yarn.

JOHN CHURCH & Co. have recently published a short burlesque opera by an American composer. It is written in the style of the Grand Italian Opera, and is entitled "Extract of Opera (Condensed)."

THE publication of "Prometheus," an oratorical work by Abbé Franz Liszt, is announced by J. Church & Co., Cincinnati. This will be the first English translation of this interesting work, either in this country or Europe.

OBITUARY.

DISPATCHES from Berlin announce the death, on the 9th inst., of the distinguished theologian, David Friedrich Strauss. He was born in Würtemberg, 1808, and received his education at the University of Tübingen, where, at the age of 24, he became an instructor. His great work was the "Life of Jesus," 1835, although his name is just now eminent in connection with his remarkable book, "The Old Faith and The New."

A PARIS telegram on the 10th announced the death of the French author, Jules Michelet. He was born in Paris, 1798, and passed brilliantly through the College of France. His most elaborThe Convention met on the 12th inst. ate works were in history, among them a "HisLarge representation from the South tory of France," 12 vols., 1833-'57, and a series of and West.

Series" next Saturday. At the same time will Publishers' Board of Trade, also appear Ribot's "English Psychologists," and "Upton's Tactics."

THE Carletons have published a volume called "Genesis Disclosed," whose intent is to reconcile the Biblical narrative of creation with the scientific doctrine of a plurality of Adams. The discussion turns on the difference between "Adam" and "Ha-Adamı," in the original Hebrew. They have issued also, "Bessie Wilmerton," a fresh novel by Margaret Westcott, and "Martin Chuzzlewit," the eleventh volume of their "New Illustrated Edition" of Dickens.

JOHN STUART BLACKIE'S work " On Self-Culture" will be ready on the 19th at Scribners'. It treats the question broadly, in its intellectual, physical, and moral aspects, and offers a deal of practical advice to young men and students. On the same day, also, a new volume of Lange's Commentary will be ready, its field being the minor prophets.
