AMERICAN LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC INTELLIGENCE.

ALLIBONE'S DICTIONARY.-Our notice of this work in our last number has elicited the following interesting letter from Dr. Allibone.

To the Editor of TRÜBNER'S AMERICAN AND ORIENTAL
LITERARY RECORD.

SIR,-Noticing a reference in the first number of your periodical to the work on which I have long been engaged, I beg to send you the following.

In "The Reader," November 26th, p. 674, Mr. Gerald Massey remarks, "I have searched Allibone's Dictionary, which contains 30,000 authors' names, chiefly American," ete. Now, as the work in question professes to be "A Dictionary of British and American Authors from the earliest accounts to the middle of the nineteenth century," if it be true that the writers therein recorded are chiefly American, this either proves that America has produced more authors in two centuries than Great Britain has in thirteen, or that the promise of the title page has not been fulfilled.

At this

But the names in this Dictionary are not "chiefly American." Of two hundred authors, counted one hundred backwards and one hundred forwards from William Biglow, instanced by Mr. Massey, thirty only are American. proportion of the 17,449 names in the first volume (all yet published) only 2,617 would be American; but as Mr. Massey happened to strike upon the American family of the Bigelows, I think the proportion stated above quite too large. I doubt if of the 17,449 authors, more than 2000 are American.

So far was it from my design to write an American Dictionary that originally I designed to confine the book to British authors,--perhaps with a few exceptions in favour of eminent writers of my own country. In fact, however, I have been more comprehensive: the book is not a peerage, but a directory.

As you have courteously referred to my labours, and as many of my English friends are dissatisfied with the delay in the publication of the second volume of my work, I embrace this opportunity to explain the causes of that delay,more annoying to me, certainly, than it can be to any one else.

1. The fact that there are many more authors of note, and without note, in the letters from K to Z than in the letters from A to J.

2. The vast number of new authors and new editions of old books within the last few years.

3. My desire to be so full that no one can justly charge me with important omissions.

4. The fact that I am writing all my articles (in some of the earlier letters I had some contributions from others) with my own hand, without conference or co-operation of any kind. A very different matter this from merely editing a dictionary composed by a number of authors, each skilled in his own department.

The letter S alone (there were about 700 Smiths) occupied me about twenty-two months, working as a rule from nine a.m. to six and later p.m., with intervals for meals, etc.

As I have now been six months in the letter W, I trust that the completion of this the twelfth year of my absorbing and anxious toil will see me through the alphabet. Of course the insertion of new books, the completion of the forty indexes, and the superintendence of the press will require time,-how much it is impossible to say.

As it is the duty of a chronicler to record, of a critic to express, censure as well as praise, I cannot of course expect to please all readers-still less all authors: but so conscious do I feel of an earnest desire to do justice, so entirely free from all malevolence in the discharge of my office, that even of my best abused authors, there is none I feel afraid to meetexcepting the dead ones.-Faithfully yours,

Philadelphia, April 4, 1865.

S, AUSTIN ALLIBONE.

A PICTORIAL HISTORY OF THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR.Mr. G W. Childs, the enterprising publisher of Philadelphia. announces his intention to issue next month a pictorial history of the war, by Mr. Lossing, containing at least two thousand engravings on wood and steel, embracing every thing worth illustrating. It will form a biographical, historical, military

naval, topographical, political, and social record of the war, and will be issued in four elegantly printed volumes of about 600 pages each.

DR. ASA GRAY has presented to the Harvard University his Herbarium and Botanical Library; the former, the result of many years' labour, consists of at least 200,000 specimens ; and the latter contains some 2,200 botanical works. To Dr. Gray's noble gift have been added collections from Cuba, California, Mauritius, Madagascar, the Dutch East Indies, Japan, Mexico, Persia, Siberia, Northern China, Bolivia, etc.; and also a splendid collection of large and costly botanical works presented by John A. Lowell, Esq. A building to contain these collections has been erected at the cost of 12,000 dollars, the gift of Nathaniel Thayer, Esq., of Boston; and subscriptions, amounting to 10,000 dollars, have been raised to form a fund from which to meet the annual expenses of this establishment.

NEW SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION TO BRAZIL.- Professor Agassiz, accompanied by his wife; Dr. B. E. Cotting, the curator of the Lowell Institute of Boston; Mrs. Cotting; Mr. Burckhardt, an artist; and Messrs. Anthony, Seaver, Hart, St. Johns, Allen, and James, have left for Rio Janeiro on a Scientific Expedition to Brazil, for the purpose of testing Professor Agassiz's glacial theory and collecting tropical specimens. Professor Agassiz and his wife, Dr. and Mrs. Cotting, and Mr. Burckhardt will proceed to the Amazon, passing along that river in boats to the Andes, and then crossing over to Lima. The other members of the expedition have had special departments in collecting specimens assigned to them, and will separate at Rio Janeiro. It is expected that this expedition will return with the largest collection of tropical specimens ever gathered together; and, as far as practicable, each specimen will be in duplicate, so that exchanges may be made with other museums. The entire expense will be borne by Mr. Nathaniel Thayer, a liberal gentleman of Boston, who, on hearing of Professor Agassiz's views, and that the probable expense of the expedition would be from two thousand to two thousand five hundred dollars for each person, at once wrote to the Professor-"Select your assistants, organize your expedition, proceed to your work, and send your bills to me."

HOURS AT HOME.-Under this title Messrs. Scribner and Co. purpose commencing the issue of a popular religious periodical, the aim of which will be to furnish a pure, healthful, and instructive literature, without sectarian bias. Already the list of contributors engaged contains the literary representatives, both lay and clerical, of some of the most important religious bodies. Drs. Huntington, Schaff, Anderson, Stevens, J. P. Thompson, Sprague, Skinner; Professors Hitchcock, Shedd, Silliman; Presidents Wayland and Woolsey, and numerous others. The first number will appear on the 1st of May.

CARL RITTER.-Mr. W. L. Gage, the translator of the Comparative Geography of Carl Ritter, is, we learn, engaged upon a life of that celebrated man, and is also translating his great work on the Holy Land.

BOOKS AND BOOK MAKING IN THE UNITED STATES.From some interesting statistics compiled by Mr. G. P. Putnam, of New York, and from the census of 1860, we gather the following facts:- There are 4000 firms engaged in the manufacture and sale of books in the United States : 2000 are booksellers exclusively, and 2000 are publishers. In 1834 only 449 books were published in the whole of the States, and of these only 251 were original productions. In 1855 the number was 2,161, of which 649 were reprints. In 1857 there were 2,443, including 746 reprints. The complete statistics of 1864 are not given, but we fancy they will show a total of little under 3000. These numbers do not include pamphlets or periodicals, of which enormous numbers are issued yearly. The pamphlet literature of the present war alone numbers some 5000 different publications. The total number of different newspapers and periodicals published in 1860 was 4,051, and their united annual circulation 927,951,548, of these 387 were issued daily with a daily circulation of 1,478,435. 3,173 weekly, with a weekly circulation of 7,581,390. 280 monthly, with a monthly circulation of 3,411,959, and 30 quarterly, with a circulation of 101,000. The total value of books printed in 1860 was 11,843,459 dollars, and of newspapers and periodicals 20,653,371 dollars. In printing alone, there was an increase in 1860 of nearly 29 millions of dollars over 1850.

SOCIAL SCIENCE REVIEW.-In our list of American Periodicals will be found this new candidate for public favour. It is thoroughly cosmopolitan in its sympathies and aims, and we hope to see it an important power in both the Old and New World.

THE NATIONAL ALMANAC for 1865-66 will be published during the autumn, and will embrace statistics, etc., for eighteen months. Hereafter it will be issued regularly during the autumn of each year.

Messrs. Lippincott and Co. announce a new edition (the 12th), carefully revised, of Wood and Bache's United States Dispensatory. Up to the publication of the 10th edition this well-known publishing house had paid Messrs. Wood and Bache no less a sum than 80,000 dollars for their literary labours on this work.

MR. JAMES MILLER, of New York, will shortly issue an important addition to the literature of Petroleum, for like all important discoveries now-a-days, it has a literature of its own. It will bear the title, "The Derrick and Drill; or, an insight into the discovery, development, present condi tion, and future prospects, of Petroleum in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Western Virginia. By the popular author of "Ten Acres Enough."

MILITARY BOOKS.-We had hoped with this number to have given a very full account of the important military works issued during the last few years. Want of space prevents our doing this, but we hope to give it in an early number. Thanks to the enterprise and energy of Mr. Van Nostrand, of New York, the American contributions to this branch of literature are exceeded by no other nation. New American Works in Preparation. Wilson's American Ornithology. Newly Edited.-Thomas' History of Printing in America. Newly Edited.-The Porcelain Picture; or, Full Instructions how to make Photographs on Porcelain or Opal Glass.

Astronomical science has suffered a great loss in the death of two distinguished observers, Captain James M. Gilliss, U.S.N., Superintendent of the Washington Observatory, and George Philips Bond, Philips Professor of Astronomy at Harvard College. Captain Gilliss died suddenly at Washington, of apoplexy, on Thursday, the 9th of February,—Mr. Bond, after a lingering illness of more than a year, eight days later. Captain Gilliss succeeded Lieut. Maury at the Washington Observatory in 1861. From 1849 to 1852 he was Superintendent of the U.S. Naval Astronomical Expedition to the Southern hemisphere, one object of which was the determining the solar parallax. The particulars of this expedition he gave to the world in 1856 in two large volumes, one of which contains a very elaborate and comprehensive account of Chili; the other some important scientific information as to the minerals, animals, plants, and fossils of the Andes. As an astronomer, Captain Gilliss was distinguished for skill and accuracy, a thorough familiarity with every branch of the science, and more than ordinary practical acquaintance with astronomical instruments. His last published astronomical communication appeared in the Washington National Intelligencer, of the 8th February, and bears date only two days before his death.

In January last, the Royal Astronomical Society of London voted a gold medal to Mr. Bond for his great work on the Donati Comet. He just lived to receive this flattering token of recognition; and then, after a singularly modest and virtuous life, in which his amiable disposition had endeared him to a host of friends, he passed quietly away at the early age of forty. His name will long be remembered by astronomers for his original discoveries and accurate calculations. Among other papers he wrote one upon the construction of the rings of Saturn, in which their fluid nature was first established; another on the orbits of Hyperion, having participated in the discovery of Hyperion; others on the Nebula of Andromeda, on various comets, on stellar photography, etc.
