Harpers Maga:iae for February has the following

Just observation:
Among the Afserics Of Human Life some sensitive
Toins through novel three long which has been
.so S 20 VIC Won bd or than cnce suspected
in the Of the bOok-tha yOu had read before"
The truth of this was forcbly brought home 70 us
BY the perusal of this No of Harper, especially
the brilliant and graphic article on The Life and
Times of Madame de Stael, which We read with
puzzled consciousness that il must be very like some
thing already familiar TO Va, until we finally Identified
it as the very article that had already devoured
with satisfaction in the British periodical which orr
gnated it, There a-e some more old friends among
the contents Of this magazine but none which pro-
yoked us quite so much az this. And we regret to
hear that the success Of Harper has impelled the
starting of two other magazines the same plan
dishonest it seems to us but on that point let every
one judge.
Bear in mind that we do not object to the making
up of American magazines either wholly partly from
those of Europe but to the withholding of credit from
those thus drawn upOn-a credit which seems 70 us
their Just DUE and which at all events is essential to
the readers edifcation aud comfort Whoever is quail
fled to read appreciangy such au article as that on
De Stael wants TO know whether it is from the Edln
burgh, the Quarterly, the North British Westminster
Blackwood OF what other whether its origin
is British or American He may detect suspect its
origin from its peculiar flavor but there is satisfaction
in certainty which conjecture does not afford. And
when we see articles Of signal merit and interest float
ing through the journals credited in perfect good faith
to Harper or some other New-YOr periodical which
first appeared in British review or magazine, we can
not help trusting that there must be method in
which the enemies of international Copyright might il
Iusrate their principles, which would not be quite so
reyorg to every fair mind is this of borrowing with
out leave the contents of European works and taking
credit for them as original.
