ably adapted to take advantage of circumstances.
This sagacious lady profited by the alarm caused by
a man throwing himself over a bridge to effect her
brother's escape from the bailiffs, and to declare
that he had committed suicide to escape his merci-
less creditor. The sums of money which she con-
trived to extort from the unfortunate bill broker
on this ground, before the imposture was discovered,
were more profitable to herself and her coadjutor,
than pleasant to the giver. The fifth part of
" Royal Favourites" tells the oft told tale of the
weakness and improvidence of our first Stuart
King. An animated description of A, cot, an
account ,)f a Night at St, Bernard's, and a brief but
interesting paper on the various unsucessful
searches for the source of the Nile, are among the
remaining contents,

LONDON SOCIETY.—" A London Story," as it is
styled, is the first thing to greet the reader in the
July number of this lively serial. It is entitled
" The First Time I Saw Her," and is original and
interesting enough to provoke the reader's curiosity
as to the sequel. "The Derby Day under an
Umbrella" is an animated sketch of the busy scenes
on Epsom Downs under rather unfavourable cir-
cumstances. " Dickens's Dogs" is the name of a
pleasantly written paper, which styles the popular
novelist "the Landseer of fiction," in testimony to
his pan-and-ink portraits of Bull's-eye, Boxer, Tip
Merrylegs, and a host of other remarkable canine
characters. It is curious how often we notice that
great Sketchers of men- are equally successful in
depicting the qualities of the lower creatures. The
universal sympathy and quick insight which make
the writer a master of his art enable him to dra w
with equal fidelity those varying characteristics of
inferior creatures only perceptible to those whom
they love and confide in. An essay on powder
making is worth reading. It is headed " Among
the Powder," and describes an expedition to a pow-
der mill, and the various processes witnessed in the
course of it. The lovers of exciting narratives will
find a " new sensation" in " The Doctor's Fortune."
We leave them to discover the extraordinary crisis
that brought fame and fortune to the humble sur-
geon of Hallowleigh, and turned his dangerous
rival into his powerful auxiliary. A paper on
" Holiiity Walking Tours" concludes a pleasant
number, in which the illustrations are of the usual
high order.

THE NEW REVIEW.—This new competitor for
popular favour continues to run its race with vigour,
and deals boldly with the gravest and most pressing
questions of the day, as well as giving us articles—
literary, social, or discursive—after the manner of
the quarterly reviews. It manifests undoubted
ability, and its writings are the work of no unprac-
tised hands, but of combatants who have fought in
the arena of political conflict, and have familiarised
themselves with every aspect of the problems and
perplexities of the age. Its tendencies are decidedly
conservative, but it is not by any means a party
publication. It ranges, if not from grave to gay,
from ancient to modern, from a discourse on the
relative advantages of single and married life to a
view of the prospects of Poland, from reflections on
the antiquity of man to Irish facts and figures of
the present day. One of the most singular and inte-
resting features in the general contents is the intro-
duction of several pages, with facsimiles of the
autographs of celebrities of different times. As a
whole, The New Review may be considered to have
taken a high place among its associates and rivals.

THE NATIONAL.—We find in this part the com-
panion picture to the plate in the last number,
representing the different degrees of plainness when
accompanied with expression and intellect, ani with-
out those embellishers of the human countenance.
Captain Mayne Reid continues his story of " The
White Gauntlet" at some length, and the two other
tales that are going on in the magazine proceed
with interest. The scene of one of them is laid in
America, just at the outbreak of the war, so we shall
probably have some of the stirring scenes of the
opening of the conflict introduced. "The Discovery
of the North-west Passage" and " Dress and the
Dressed" are two among the subjects discussed, and
due honour is paid to David Wingate and John
Harris in a paper on our Wayside Poets.

GOOD WORDS.—" Good Words" has long pos-
sessed, in a rare and fortunate degree, the art of
making high principle and unshrinking morality
interesting; of offering some entertainment for all
readers, as well as grave thought and kindly sug-
gestions. Much is due to its entire absence of pro-
fession, dogmatism, and bitterness ; at any rate the
result is as pleasant to the reader as it is reported
to be satisfactory to the publisher. The number
before us contains the continuation of Dr. Guthrie's
papers on the Parables, and of Dr. Caird's "Essays
for Sunday Reading." It has a story by Sarah
Tytler, an essay by A.K.H.8., a sketch by Madame
de Gasparin, a scientific paper by Sir John Herschel,
and a poem by Isa Craig. There are other contri-
butions as well, including some by the able and
accomplished editor, but those we have already
enumerated are sufficient to establish the claim of
" Good Words" on the attention of most readers.

THE ECLECTIC REVIEW.—This serial certainly
bears out its title in the character of its contents,
for we meet in this number with essays on " A
Modern Quaker Apostle," Stephen Grellet, Adam
Ochlenschlager, and the Abbe Lacordaire, and these
not in any party or sectarian spirit, but with the
recognition of virtue and genius in every form. Mr.
Laisset's recent work receives a careful criticism,
suited for deep thinkers, and " Our Book Club"
notices some recent works. The chief interest of
the number, however, centres in its biographical
papers.

THE ODDFELLOWS.—The Manchester Unity of
Oddfellows is no inconsiderable or insignificant
body, and the magazine, especially since it has
passed into the able hands of its present editor, is
well worth reading. The quantity and variety of
the contents can hardly fail to please,while many of
the articles are of a high order. Eliza Cook con-
tributes a wise and witty prose sketch on the
dangers of three little words—" Bye-and-bye," and
an original poem, " The Infinite," teaching, as of
old, a lofty moral from the simple things around us.
" Summer Time," " The Salts in the Sea," " The
Culture of the Mental Faculties," " Music as a
Means of Culture" arc among the graver contents,
while song, sketch, and story enliven and vary the
pages. All information connected with the pro-
ceedings of the Oddfellows is duly chronicled ;
among which intelligence we find a copy of their
address to the Prince of Wales on a late auspicious
occasion, and his Royal Highness's reply, We can
assure our readers that they will find this northern
magazine not unworthy of notice, even among the
crowd of metropolitan serials.
