BURToN's MAeAzINE.-We believe we neslec ned
to notice the last number of this eany for which
we almost feared we should not receive any more
copies The number before us contains very pretty
engraving Of Addison's walk, Oxford, and numb or
OF original and selected papers, of which are
lar above mediocrity. The main fault which we
find with the edition is the adms. ion of tiles that
are not sufficiently worked out. Host of them are
TOO brief, and the materials not made the most
OF we would instance the paper concerning aris-
tocraces, which might have been with little labor
enlarged to three times its present length and have
been Illustrated by many examples from history both
ancient and modern. Some people may, however,
that brevty is the soul of wit, though we deny its
being the body of philosophy.

ESCAPE AND REcAPTURE.-The 4th Of July was
celebrated at the Augusta Jail with unusual spirit
The love OF liberty was not manifested in mere
night most of the prisoners hsvingb the aid of each
other, escaped from their cells into the main passage
on the lower floor, went to the grated window where
with the aid of a knife cut into saw with
file, they cut off large bar Of iron twice, an inch
and half square, and another broad Cat bar three
inches WIDE, making hole, through which i've of
them escaped into the prison yard. The others being
larger men, could not get through the hole Those
who got into the yard climbed the high fence, and
jumped over, near twenty feet One Of them, named
Shurlif, broke his leg in his fall, and of re-
manned ON the ground The others fled, but one was
re-aken on Sunday morning, and the others the fol-
lowing day, and are all back to their old quarters
again.

The ANTARCTIC CONTINENT.-Wef lave already
stated, in our opinion, the continent recently said to
have beer discovered by Lieut.. Wilks, was the
same that Capt. Belleny saw ard described in
1898. And yesterday we received the following
letter in relation to this subject =
JAMES G. BENNETT, ESQ
SIR-In Your Herald of the 9th inst. observe a
statement Of the discovery Of a New Continent in
the southern hemisphere, by the United States Ex-
following paragraph, which find copied from the
lie Constitutional Of 30th Sept. 1888, by the Lon
don Examiner of 7th Oct. 1885, that the same conti-
nent has been discovered about three years ago by
the French The paragraph is rs follows =
DIscovERy NEW CoNTrNENr.---M. Dou-
bouzel, an officer on board the Zelee (the expedi-
ton to the South Poc), has written a letter. dated
Valparaiso, March 3d. confirming the details given
by nj. ID. DUrville. new circumstance men
toned by him is the discovery Of great continent
to the south of South Shetland. ''We carefully ex-
plored and determined" says that officer, forty
leagues of coast, notwithstanding the surrounding
ice This discovery is real service 10 nautical and
geographical science"
From this it will be perceived that no new disco
very has been made by the American expedition, il
is only rediscovery of a continent explored to
considerable extent several years ago.
l am sir, yours respectfully,
Not having either g lie Constitutional" or the
" Examiner" at hand, we cannot speak with certain
ty on what M. Doubouzel wrete about But if the
French expedition in 1893 only discovered con-
tinent which was due south of the South Shetland,
that must have been Pamer's Land, which is more
than 100 degrees east of that land recently by
Lieut.. Wilkes. And if the French, then, saw land
in no other longitude (south o. 6D they then made
discovery. After all, believe il viii be found
that no discovery has been made this year.

The exercises throughout were highly gratifying
to the friends of the University and creditable to
