The philosopher who awoke the "discussions, the
laughter, and the ridicule of the eighteenth century" is
met with in the "Historical Sketches of the Reign of
George II," which are continued in Blackwood.
The criticism of his career is most interesting, and
seems to reproduce the man as he lived and acted on the
stage of existence. Bishop Berkeley was one who
might well challenge admiration, and even those
who dissent from his views may find much to
admire in his earnestness of character and kindliness
of disposition. If his theories failed to impress
mankind, and his efforts to convince others of the sound-
ness of his judgment seemed destined to awaken their
ridicule instead of convincing their reason, still his life
was not all in vain, and his works will long be remem-
bered. Hume observed of Bishop Berkeley that his
"close and unbroken chain of reasoning admitted of no
answer," and the exponents of the old philosophy seemed
to shrink from the task of replying to arguments they
declared to be unsound, and yet contented themselves
in passing by with a sweeping censure, instead of stopping
to analyse and confute. Some of Berkeley's observa-
tions are well worthy of notice, as, for instance, his
remarks and speculations upon Ireland. Some of the
questions in the " Querist " might puzzle the philosophers
and politicians of the present day. " Whether," he asks,
" my countrymen are not readier at finding excuses than
remedies ?" and concludes by exclaiming, " Whose fault
is it if poor Ireland still continues poor ?" It is here said,
in summing up the chief points of the character of the
idealist, that honesty reaching to magnanimity, and the
generous sympathy which causes a man to be called
Quixotic, were its distinguishing features, and such a man
as Berkeley gives " vital form "to a generation. " Gain
or loss ; the Statistics of the Campaign," is the title of
the political article. It enters minutely into the details,
and seeks to shew the significance of the
gains and losses on both sides at the late
elections. " Kinglake's History of the War in the Crimea"
presents an opportunity for considering the chief events of
that period, and it is truly said that the issue of the war
was decided by the long-protracted defence of Sebastopol,
for the strain of defending the place ruined Russia, and
gave the victory eventually to France and England.
TIIE CORNIIILL.
The readers of the Cornhill will find a good deal of
entertainment in the story entitled " That Boy of
Norcott's." The adventure; of the young hero are
out of the common in every respect. " Compara-
tive Mythology," is a suggestive article which puts
before one the principle that underlies all mythology,
and enumerates the different writers who from
time to time have made inquiries and investi-
gations into the subject. This science, which
is as yet but in its infancy, is declared to be im-
portant as regards its connection with the mental history
of the human race. " Christmas Eve" is an appropriate
selection for this season. It is a poem by Count
Brasinski, paraphrased from the Polish by Mr. Robert
Lytton, who prefaces it by an interesting sketch. This
poem has hitherto been passed over by English critics,
and yet it has passages of great merit, and its descriptions are given with considerable
effect.
Some exciting, adventures are met with in
the sketch
" From an Island." "On Relics Ecclesiastical"
title of a paper that may be commended to
the is the
notice of
the student, for its interesting account of the noticeable
legends and traditions that are connected with this sub-
ject. " Lettice Lisle "is a very pleasing tale, and the
young heroine is in bright contrast to the rough characters
around her. The descriptions of the scenery are admirably.
done, and likely to be generally attractive. A great deal
of mystery has attached itself to the institution of the
" Yellin," in Germany, and hence it will not come
to many to peruse the details here furnished of
atrial trial and
condemnation by that ancient tribunal.
MACMILLAN.
Dean Stanley contributes to Macmillan's Magazine a most
admirable paper on the late Dean Milman. The living dean
thinks the dead dean a model man. " His severe taste
his. nicely-balanced judgment, his abundant '
his keen appreciation of the varied forms of knowledge,literary
excellence, enabled him to keep always above, and at the
same almost always in sympathy with the intellectual move-
ments of the age. Of no one else in his time would it have
been possible that whilst regarded as an oracle of
grave learning and lofty speculation by ecclesiastics of
almost every party, he yet should, with
man to
e one fittingTuity,
perfect congruity,
have been chosen by Mr. Locker as
th
whom to dedicate the light and
graceful charms of the
`Lyra Elegantiarum ;' or that he, as dean of the cathe-
dral of the metropolis, should, without offence, have
assisted at the performance of a play of his own at the
Italian Theatre." In his usual felicitous manner Dean
Stanley goes on to apply the text of his sermon to the
present age. Dr. Milman was one of the most honest
and industrious scholars that ever lived. He did not,
as many men have done, consider that fame attained
early in life was a reason why he should rest for the
remainder. One great work was succeeded by another,
each more laborious, each more splendid than the last.
The learned ease of a Westminster canonry and of the St.
Paul's deanery was used by him merely as opportunities
for harder and more substantial work. It is difficult to
believe that this patriarch of literature, this divine whose
histories are the text-books of schools, whose hymns are
sung in Ritualist churches and Dissenting chapels, was
once the best-abused man iu England. " Those who
were but children at the time can remember the horror
created in remote rural districts by a rumour that a book
had appeared in which Abraham was described as a
Sheykh.' In Oxford the book was denounced from the
University pulpit. It is even said that more serious
measures were proposed. Condemnations by Convocation,
prosecutions before the Court of Arches had, happily,
not yet come into fashion. But so vast and deep was the
suspicion and alarm excited by the work that it brought
to a sudden and untimely end the interesting and useful,
series of the Family Library of which it formed a part.'
Milman not only lived but wrote down this senseless clamour,
and while maintaining a calm and lofty silence in spite of
fierce attacks he had the pleasure to see this foolish out-
cry die away, and himself chosen by the very university
which had proposed to censure him, to preach sermons on
the subjects which had aroused donnish indignation, and
in the very pulpit whence he had been anathematised.
There is a lesson for us all here if we will only
learn it. The interest of thi; article is increased
"
by extracts from the forthcoming posthumous Annals
of St. Paul's Cathedral," which Dean Stanley takes
from the advanced sheets of the work. Of the other
articles I must speak briefly., though I could say much
in praise. of Mr. Farrar's interesting and most clever
parallel between philology and such sciences as geology
and botany. Mr. Norman Lockyer tells of recent solar
discoveries ; Mr. John Morley reviews Professor Yonge, s
" Life of Lord Liverpool," and Mr. J. A. Symonds Mr.
Browning's new poem. Dr. George Macdonald con-
tributesi a slight story ; and the first part of a nesv.seo
atal
tale is given, but on which I decline to give an opinion
present. The poetry is tolerable, scarcely more.
article on the "European Situation" is another of
those
attacks upon Count von Beust which have been so fie-

The Sunday Magazine contains a story appropriate to
the season—" A Christmas Evening in the Eighteenth
Century." There is a moral for the young, in the sad
fortunes of some of its heroes and heroines. Bella Verder's
life was not what might have been expected from her brilliant
youth, but her last days were peaceful, and the conclusion
of the eventful story is satisfactory. " A Christmas
Carol" is a pleasing sketch in verse of the chief events of
the birth of Christ. "Earnest Words for Earnest Dien"
is on the subject of the Gospel to the doubting, and
puts truths before one in a simple and effective style. It
is too much the habit in the present day to express doubts
about everything, and the doubter at last finds himself a
hero ; but this is nut the right meaning of Christ's Gospel.
" Happy Bob's Christmas Treat " is a charming sketch,
that raises the memories of the good old days of fun and
frolic, when Christmas was kept in a more hearty fashion
than it is at present, and far, more universal merriment
prevailed. Bob's entertainment was of an unpolished
character, but the spirit of enjoyment was not
wanting, and his young guests entered fully into the
meaning of his teachings. It was altogether the sort of
" treat" to dwell in the recollection when more staid and
sober entertainments were forgotten, or recollected only as
feasts in name and not in deed. " The Year" contains
some warnings and encouragements to the young pilgrims
on life's road, and they are earnestly advised to be firm
and constant, to stay not on the march, but " press on,
upwards, onwards, heavenwards, homewards."
THE CONTEMPORARY.
In the Contemporary Dean Alford moralises at some
length on that excellent text—the meeting of the S.P.C.K.
His description of that memorable scene contains some
neat touches, but, perhaps, in this case, if there had been
less description and more deduction the article would have
gained. A dean's representation of the gathering at the
Freemasons' Tavern must from the nature of things be a
failure. The narrow escape of the Low Church party on
that occasion is attributed to defective organisation.
Whilst the supporters of the amendment were united'as
one man, many of them, in fact, sacrificing their convic-
tione for what they esteemed the good of thoir cause, the
supporters of the committee were but a fraction of their
party, for every one present there were a dozen left behind.
The attack will certainly be renewed at no distant day,
and the only hope of encountering it with safety lies in
effective organisation. Dean Alford does not enter this
month into his scheme of organisation, but he recommends
a beginning in the way of reforming the organs of the
party. Few will be inclined to question the necessity of
this change. Taken in bulk, the ecclesiastical newspapers
of the day are simply disgraceful. The paper on "La
Lanterne' is very interesting. It consists wholly of a
digest—extracts, with a few explanatory remarks—of the
famous weekly pamphlet of M. Henri Rochefort. But
as this paper was suppressed in France with such
extraordinary rigour that hardly a complete set of num-
bers remains in the country, the opportunity of ascertain-
ing what M. Rochefort did say, and how he said it, is by
no means valueless. These extracts form a decisive answer
to the absurdly unjust criticisms of the Saturday Review.
M. Rochefort hated his opponents with indiscriminating
vehemence, and frequently sacrificed wisdom to wit ; but
of the genius displayed in La Lanterne there can be no
doubt whatever. The manner in which this journal was
treated is a sufficient testimony to its merits. No other
press prosecution, even of the Second Empire, was so
arbitrary and lawless. Next follows a series of fine
articles on clerical and kindred subjects, of which
"Au Irish Churchman's View of Irish Politics" is
one of the best. Its merit is not a little owing
to the fact that it contains a minimum of dissertation on
the Irish Church, and a great deal that is interesting on
other important Irish topics. The section on Education
is particularly well deserving of notice, and the whole
paper, I doubt not, will be read with pleasure in these
days, when discussion on Irish politics is tinged rather
with party spirit than with a desire to discover the truth.
Dr. Hannah continues the discussion on the attitude of

Plurntree contributes a fine article on " Marcus Aurelius and

rear with some remarks on " Cholera," which would be
more useful if their purpose were better defined,

FOREIGN politics have retained most of their in-
terest during the past year. In Europe one reigning
sovereign, Prince MICHAEL of SERVIA, has been
assassinated, and another, the Queen of SPAIN, has
abdicated. The first event has not exercised any
apparent influence on continental politics. The
second, as no less a person than Count BISMARCK has
lately declared, saved Europe from a great war. But
for this " accident " of the Spanish Revolution, as the
Prussian Minister called it, war would have broken ,
out between France and Prussia in the autumn.
The "Eastern Question," as the maintenance of the
Turkish Empire is vaguely called, has once more
passed out of the chronic into the acute stage, and a
few days ago a conflict seemed all but inevitable.
Even now the contingency is not wholly removed.
The Great Powers have proposed the usual remedy
of a Conference for settling the quarrel between the
Courts of Athens and Constantinople. Turkey has ac-
ceded on the condition that the question which has
given rise to the present dispute—the independence of
Crete—be excluded from discussion. It is difficult
to understand what purpose the Conference can serve

THE year which has just come to a conclusion bas been a
singularly uneventful one, and must be regarded, on the
whole., as having been unfavourable for the expansin
of trade. .Nevertheless, it will always be remembered
ion
commercial history as the period of reaction after one of
the severest panics ever experienced in the commercial
world. This period of reaction has been long drawn out,
and has continued long after there was any necessity
ar ground for distrust. The
great collapse which termi-
nated the period of inflation in IPGG left behind it a dis-
credit upon commercial circles which was not altogether
without foundation, but which has been carried to an
:mmoderate excess. The timidity which has characterised
capitalists and investors during the past year is altogether
is foolish as was the temerity of two or three years since.
1867 was a period of cheap money, but in 1868 money has
ranged lower even than in 1867, and this must be regarded

sent round to Chatham by steamer, as had been
ordered. Accompanying the troops were a number
of women and children. The troops sent home are
