The work of Mr. STILES, which we have noticed elsewhere in this number of the _International_, we understand, will be published by the Harpers, in two large octavo volumes, about the first of May. It contains a complete history of the revolutionary proceedings in the Austrian empire in 1848. Mr. Stiles witnessed much that he describes. Each section is introduced by an historical survey of the country where the events described occurred. Thus Venice, Prague, and Vienna are brought before the reader in all their past glory and recent political vicissitudes. The Hungarian war is amply chronicled. The work is moderate in tone, authentic, fresh, and abounding in interesting facts. It will be illustrated by engravings, executed in Germany, of the Emperor, Archduke John, Kossuth, and other chief characters. * * * * * Dr. A. K. GARDINER, whose clever book about Paris, under the title of _Old Wine in New Bottles_, is well known, has just published a noticeable lecture, delivered before the College of Physicians and Surgeons, on the _History of the Art of Midwifery_. It is most conclusive upon the point of the unfitness of women for any of the more delicate and important duties in obstetrics, and is a sufficient argument for the immediate abolition of the so-called "Female Colleges." We recommend it to the attention of readers who feel any interest in the subject.--(Stringer & Townsend.) * * * * * Mrs. H. C. CONANT, wife of the learned Professor of Hebrew in the Rochester University, has published (through Lewis Colby, Nassau-street) another of NEANDER'S Commentaries, done into terse and vigorous English--_The Epistle of James Practically Explained_. It is needless to praise the great German, and it will readily be believed, by those who are acquainted with the fine abilities and thorough scholarship of Mrs. Conant, that this translation is in all respects admirable. * * * * * We are soon to have a new dramatic poem from Mr. GEORGE H. BOKER, whose _Calaynos_, _Anne Bullen_, and _Ivory Carver and other Poems_, have secured to him very high and well-deserved reputation as a literary artist. We do not think any sonnets written in this country are to be preferred to Mr. Boker's, and his _Ballad of Sir John Franklin_, published a few months ago in this magazine, is full of imagination, and is marked throughout with the nicest skill in execution. * * * * * The last work of the late Professor STUART, a _Commentary on the Book of Proverbs_, has been published by M. W. DODD, in a large duodecimo volume. It contains a full account of the principal commentaries written on this book, and the translations and paraphrases made into different languages, with a new version, and exegetical remarks. A memoir of Professor Stuart is in preparation. * * * * *
