Mr. John Stuart Mill has contributed to Fraser's Magazine for this month an article which he calls A FEW WORDS om NON-INTERVENTION: Our readers will find it worthy of their serious attention.

DISTRICT DUTIES DURING THE REVOLT IN THE NORTH-WEST PRO- vrwers OF INDIA 15 a record of events in a district where, notwithstand- ing mutiny and rebellion, British authority. was successfully maintained by some half-dozen Englishmen, left to their own resources, without the hope even of assistance from European troops. After the rebellion was put down the author acted as one of the three commissioners appointed for the investigation and trial of cases connected with that event, and he directs attention to some of the errors made apparent in the course of those investigations, with the hope that his remarks may be useful in guarding our Indian empire against total wreck on the very rocks on which it has once already grounded.

The purpose of the series of sermons published under the general title of SCIENCE Di THEOLOGY is to bring some of the discoveries and methods of the physical and moral sciences to bear upon theoretic questions of theology. The author lays it down in his preface that theology has never failed, from its origin until now, to receive a tinge from the con- dition of general knowledge, and the prevalent methods of investigation in each particular age. Its history, he says, is marked by epochs of cri- ticism or of scepticism, in which it has had to submit to the investigations of coordinate bodies of physical or mental philosophy, sometimes refuting them, sometimes borrowing from them, at other times surrendering to them. Holding these views he has composed the sermons comprised in this volume as detached contributions, aiming to show the mode in which the theology of the present day may incorporate the irrefragable dis- coveries of modern science into its own system.

Immanuel Hermann Fichte, the author of CONTRIBUTIONS TO MENTAL Priu,osoesrr, a translation of which, by Mr. Morell, with an explanatory preface, was published last week in a neat little volume, is the only son of the famous Johann Gottlieb Fichte, and is himself a man of no little note in Germany. The present work presents an epitome of the author's philosophical views. The principal points discussed are the nature of the human soul, and its relation to the organism, which he compares to that of an individual providence, and regards as the formative principle of the body—its real prototype ; the instinctive and preconscious regions of mental activity ; the psychological significance of dreams, hallu- cinations, somnambulism, second sight, clairvoyance, and mediumship ; the organic double life of the soul, and its essential immortality ; the true method of psychological investigation, &c.

An address on THE ARCH2ROLOGY OP Basicsnraa was delivered in Sep- tember last to the Archaeological Association, at Newbury, by the Earl of Carnarvon, in which he calls up a local historic Past; shows us Berk- shire in the Roman and the Post-Roman periods; glances at King. Arthur ; Wayland Smith ; Alfred and the ancient family of the Engle- fields ; and notices in a rapid, graceful manner, the remarkable men of the Civil War, of the Revolution and the succeeding age, whose fortunes were in any way connected with the county thus celebrated. Lord Car- narvon writes with a chivalrous and scholarly concinnity.

Among recent reprints worthy of special notice are THE Rae-REA:non OP A Coirwrav Psuisosr, being a volume of miscellaneous essays contri- buted to Fraser's Magazine ; and two volumes of very graphic and amus- ing sketches by Mr. Walter Thornbury, collected from Household Words under the title of LIFE mr SPAIN.

Colonel Wilford, the excellent chief instructor of the Hythe School of Musketry, has increased the debt of gratitude which the country owes him, by the publication of Tatum Lacruass ON THE RIFLE. Clear, practical, and impressive, they will be regarded as an indispensable manual by all volunteers, and will be read with great interest by everybody who wishes to know distinctly what the rifle is capable of doing for the defence of the country in well-trained hands.

The VOLUNTEER ALMANACS FOR 1860 deserves the support of Volun• teers and of all interested in the movement. It contains, in a small com- pass, a useful selection of information ; such as what may be called the General Orders to the Volunteers, a list of the corps in their circle ,r and a list giving details touching officers, arms, numbers, uniform. Them is also a list of officers in alphabetical array, and a dictionary of military terms.
