Therefore Stubbes. instead of calling the Duke "a

him az a scion Of the Crown of France. Even "a

lie historian this; being supposed that the English

IL is modern usage which has consigned the word to

was used in bad sense by the Earl of Shrewsbury in

at odds with lis Countess 10 b. sure and there calls
her children cher imps." But that he used the word
as term of reproach, or that it was ever go used
at 80 early date, admits Of question.
This explanation is not only due to correct DIR. lin
gard but is necessary to understand rightly the
in which the word is used in quotations from Papers of
the day on previous pages of this work.
We ought to notice the excellent Typography Of
these volumes, which are among the most credit
able productions of the American press.

THE CENTRAL GOLD REGION By WILLIAM GrLPIy,
late OF the IT, g. Army. svo PIP. 1874 sower Barnes Co.
The author OF this volume is an enthusiastic ex-
FOUNDER of the capabilities of the western portion
of this continent as grain, gold, and pastoral re-
zion. He sets forth his views with such undue
vehemence of expression rs naturally to put the
reader on his guard against extravaganza and illu-
sion. Claiming the right to be heard, from resi-
dence of twenty years in the wilderness, and in
the midst of the pioneers who are clearing the
track of empire, be announces new order OF In
dustry and material development on scale of tho
grandest dimensions. Among the points for which
he contends are: that the theory of vast DESERTS
and uninhabtable regions between Kansas and
California is wholly without foundations that the
Great Plains are the finest grazing lands on earth
producing natural hay, and supporting millions
of wild cattle, without shelter, throughout the
year; that the immense region lying between the
Eastern Corderas and the Mississippi has eli
mate and soil capable Of supporting and enriching
the most dense population in the world; and that
gold and other precious metals exist in locations
yet unoccupied, in quantities surprising belief
