NOTES IN SEASON. DODD, MEAD & Co. have just ready "In Prison and Out," by Hesba Stretton, the author of "Through a Needle's Eye," etc., and who hardly needs an introduction. They also call attention to their new and cheap students' edition of Cruden's unabridged Concordance. They also have in press E. P. Roe's new book, "Without a Home."

PORTER & COATES have now ready "The Children's Book of Poetry," in which Mr. Henry T. Coates has made probably the most comprehensive collection of children's poetry extant. This contains over five hundred poems, and has besides nearly two hundred engravings on wood, so that it will be a delight and treasure to all the little people and to many big

ones.

A. D. F. RANDOLPH & Co. will have ready next week the three new volumes edited by Mr. Randolph out of the popular religious poems floating through the press, which he takes the pains to husband for readers who want them in permanent form. They are dainty little 18mos, in tasteful binding, at the price of 75 cents. "At the Beautiful Gate," Unto the Desired Haven," and "The Palace of the King" are the several titles, and the three will also be issued as one volume.

CASSELL, PETTER, GALPIN & Co. are having notable success with their " Handy Commen. tary," which, in neat 12mo volumes, each provided with an admirable map, presents complete the individual books of the New Testament Commentary, edited by Bishop Ellicott. "St. Mark," "St. John," "The Acts," and "I. Corinthians" are already out, and "St. Matthew," which, with two of those named, is the work of Rev. Dr. E. H. Plumptre, now in this country, has just been revised by him for issue later in the fall, in time for use with the International Sunday-School Lessons of 1880.

G. P. PUTNAM'S SONS will have ready next week one of the books which will notably claim a chief share of the attention of the literary world this fall-Bayard Taylor's posthumously published "Lectures on German Literature.' These were delivered before Cornell University, and later in New York, and they have now been edited by Mrs. Taylor, herself a German and a German scholar, in association with Geo. H. Boker. The several chapters present the ripest thought of this great American-German on the leading representatives of the literature of the Fatherland.

J. B. LIPPINCOTT & Co. will send out this week the poems of F. O. Ticknor, M.D., who lived in Georgia during the war. At the time he wrote many war lyrics that were published in the papers and were extensively republished in England. Paul H. Hayne, who edits the work, in speaking of him, says that "he is one of the truest and sweetest poets the country has produced." The poems are now collected in book form for the first time. "The Cross,' by Charles F. Richardson, will be ready about the same time. They have also just ready E. Marlitt's new novel," In the Schillingscourt," translated by Mrs. A. F. Wister, whose work is becoming more and more acceptable.

HOUGHTON, OSGOOD & Co. publish this week, in addition to the books named in the last WEEKLY, a Household Edition of Mr. Emerson's famous collection of poetry, "Parnassus," and a Globe Edition of Cooper's complete works in sixteen volumes, which are offered in sets only at $16. This edition is substantially uniform likely to share the same popularity. with the Globe Dickens and Waverley, and is Next Emerson's Prose Works, containing "Society week they will bring out the third volume of

and Solitude,' 'Letters and Social Aims," and "Fortune of the Republic;" the Fireside Hawthorne, complete in twelve volumes, uniform with the Fireside Emerson lately published, and an exquisite piece of book-making; Miss Jewett's "Old Friends and New," a Little Clas sic book of charming short stories; "First Principles of Household Management and Cookery," intended as a text-book in schools and families, a sensible and practical little book, by Maria Parloa, author of the celebrated "Appledore Cook-Book ;" and Chaucer's Poems, in three volumes, in the Riverside Edition of British Poets, which will thus be completed in sixty-eight volumes. This edition of Chaucer has been prepared by Mr. Arthur Gilman, who has given to it the study of years, and has included in it the fruit of the Chaucer Society's researches ; and he has made a better and more complete edition than has ever before been produced. It has a fine portrait and a full index.
