rature the South is pre-eminent. The efforts at publishing of late by Southern firms are of the most creditable kind. Books are gotten up in a style unsurpassed by Northern houses.--Among the military books lately issued none surpass Gilham's Manual, published by, West and Johnston, of this city, at 145 Main street. It is gotten up regardless of cost. Competent authority pronounces it an admirable book, shewing the soldier's art from Alpha to Omega. Among other books published by the same firm may be mentioned Cary's Bayonet Exercise, Lee's Volunteer's Hand-Book, Confederate States Army Regulations, Hardee's Tactic's, Mahan's Outpost Duty, School of the Guides, or the Practicing Soldier, Southern Military Manual, &c., &c. We saw yesterday, at the above publishing house a beautiful map of the Seat of War, published in New York, and which, by some means, had run the blockade. It conveys much valuable information. Mars is in the ascendant and military books go off like hot cakes.
The commissions of all Captains and Lieutenants appointed by virtue of the Convention Ordinance passed April 27th, for organising the Provisional Army of Virginia, will be vacated on the 1st of September. The order commanding this, which emanates from Gen. Lee, excepts the classes of officers referred to in the Ordinances passed by the Convention on the 17th, 27th and 30th days of April. The officers to be effected by the order have become supernumeraries by reason of the promptness of our citizens in entering the volunteer service of the State.
