known to Americans; but the incidents of his subsequent career have been veiled in obscurity, which is dissipated by this biography.  A book like this, narrating the actions of such a man, ought to meet with an extensive sale, and become as popular as Robinson Crusoe in fiction, or Weems’s Life of Marion and Washington, and similar books, in fact.  It contains 400 pages, has a handsome portrait and medallion likeness of Jones, and is illustrated with numerous original wood engravings of naval scenes and distinguished men with whom he was familiar.

Life of General Zachary Taylor,

COMPRISING A NARRATIVE OF EVENTS CONNECTED WITH HIS PROFESSIONAL CAREER,
AND AUTHENTIC INCIDENTS OF HIS EARLY YEARS.

BY J. REESE FRY AND R.T.  CONRAD.

With an original and accurate Portrait, and eleven elegant illustrations, by Darley.

In one handsome 12mo. volume.

“It is by far the fullest and most interesting biography of General Taylor that we have ever seen.”—­Richmond (Whig) Chronicle.

“On the whole, we are satisfied that this volume is the most correct and comprehensive one yet published.”—­Hunt’s Merchants’ Magazine.

“The superiority of this edition over the ephemeral publications of the day consists in fuller and more authentic accounts of his family, his early life, and Indian wars.  The narrative of his proceedings in Mexico is drawn partly from reliable private letters, but chiefly from his own official correspondence.”

“It forms a cheap, substantial, and attractive volume, and one which should be read at the fireside of every family who desire a faithful and true life of the Old General.”
