THE LADIES REPosITsRY for July is re.
cieved. We have so often noticed this un-
rivaled work that more than a passing no.
toe is unnecessary. When We say that the
present number fully ~sustains its prerious'
reputation, we have given it the highest
praise. The number before us contains
TWO fine engravings, "Lake Pepin from
Chimney Rock" and a portrait of Hon.
Jos. A. Wright, us. Minister Plenipo-
Tertiary at Berlin, with a short biography
by Rev. F. G. Holiday. The literary
contents of the number are OF sterling
worth. Published by Swormstedt q Poe,
Cincinnati. Edited by Rev. D. w. Clark.

GoDEY's LADY's Book for July Is
also received. "Sketching from Nalure,"
and "Buttercups: or, How to tell whether
YOU love Butter" are the engravings Of
this number. 1t also contains its usual
profusion OF beautifully colored fashion
plates, snd any amount of patterns for
ladies' needle-work, which, for a single
number are worth the price Of a years sub
scription. The literary contents are va
ried, instructive and entertaining as usual.
Just such a book rs ought to be on the
center tables in the parlors Of rich, and the
neat chintz-covered stands in the humber
cottages of the poor, for all will be i'm
proved by its monthly visits. Published
Monthly by L. A. Cooley, Philadelphia.

The LADIES HOME MAGAZINE, for July
IS also on our table. While each of the
many Magazines now published have mer-
its peel liar to itself, and fills a place in
our literature which would be- left partially
void by its absence, this emphatically
Home Magazine would be missed from
the home circle like the absence Of the Pc
culiarly loved one of the family. L. S.
Arthur and Virginia F. Townsend, the
editors. have perhaps the strongest hold
upon the affections Of their readers of any
Magazine writers in our country. While
comparing tavorably with other period
lcals in literary utility, we think, in the
realm Of sentiment, it stands pre-eminent.
We do not mean a weak sentimentality,
but that indescribable spiritual power
which, like the genial forces of Nature
developing iii quiet Inconsistencies the
opening buds, and leaves, and flowers,
finds its way To the germs Of all that is
beautiful and good in The household, de
velopiny them in the full boom of virtu'
GUS and happy lives. The Night before
the Wedding" a beautiful picture. will
