INTERFERING BOOK.

We have read with attentive interest, Il
handsome volume from the press Of Pudncy &
Russell. New York. entitled History of Scan
dinavia, from the early times Of the Norsemcn
and Vikings to the present day by the Rev.
Paul {. Snling, of Copenhagen. Professor Of
the Scandinavian languages and literature in
the University Of New York. The accomplish.
ed author is now in our city and VIC trust that
he may have the pleasure Of seeing his valua-
bic work largely circulated throughout the
community. 1t is book much needed, for
there is a general deficiency of information as
to the peculiar romantic history and in>titu-
tionS Of people that i'll ages past, manifested
an extraordinary spirit Of adventure and i'm
pressed their genius upon nations, near and re-
mote It's style is simple and graphic. and the
book sheds much light upon a portion OF his
tory hitherto involved In obscurity. Ii is deco
rated with fine portrait OF Queen Margarctha,
tthc ScmiramiS Of the North) Queen Of Den
mark. Norway and Sweden; who va, born in
1853 and died in 1912.
