THE INSPECTOR.

This Magazine having been sent so very late to
us this morning, even after our " Magazine I)ay"
was in types, we are unable to say more than that
it is one of the most improving periodicals we
know of. The " Senatorial Reminiscences"
alone are worth the money paid for the whole
number.
