NEW BOOKS JUST PUBLISHED LITTLE, BY BROWN, & CO., LAW AND FOREIGN BOOKSELLERS, 112 Washington Street, Boston. The Life and Times of James Madison. THE LIFE AND TIMES OF JAMES MADISON. By Hon. WILLIAM C. RIVES. Vol. I. 8vo. Cloth. Price, $2.25. To be completed in three or four volumes. Mr. Madison's career was contemporary and closely identified with the War of the Revolution, the arduous labors of the old Congress, the completion of the articles of Confederation, the formation and adoption of the Constitution of the United States, the political questions which arose under the administration of Washington, the struggle of parties which terminated in the election of Jefferson over Adams, and the complicated questions of foreign policy which led to the war of 1812,- a war commenced and terminated under his own administration. In passing under review these great scenes of our history, the writer has been enabled, by access to the papers of Mr. Madison, and other original documents, to throw new light upon many debatable passages of the highest and most permanent interest in American annals. Besides the career of Mr. Madison himself, of which no connected narrative has ever yet been given to the public, the work will embrace authentic and illustrative notices, founded chiefly on original and unpublished documents, of the most distinguished of his contemporaries,- Washington, Jefferson, George Mason, Patrick Henry, Richard Henry Lee, Adams, Jay, Hamilton, King, and others. Whether the subject, the materials, or the dramatis persona be considered, the work, in its design, would seem well fitted to supply yet remaining and important desiderata in our national history, on questions which must ever engage the deepest interest of the American people.
