The recent treaty by which the whole of Rms
sian America will pass under the control of the
United States-provided it shall be ratified by
the Senate-seems to have been suggested by a
memorial of the Legislature of Washington
Territory, of Jan. 1866 That memorial, ad-
dressed to the President, asserts that abun-
dance of Goldfish, halibut, and salmon, of excel
lent quality, have been fonnd along the shores
of Russian America" The memorialists re-
quest the President "to obtain such rights and
privileges OF the Government of Russia as
"will enable our fishing vessels to visit the
ports and harbors of its possessions, to the end
that fresh water and provisions may be easily
obtained; that our sick and disabled fisher
men may obtain sanitary assistance, together
with the privilege of curing fish and repairing
vessels in need of repairs"
We notice that some of our exchanges sneak
of this territory as though it were a mere ice
berg, outside of all reasonable limits for hu
man habitation or commercial Importance
Those who thus reason argue simply from the
latitude in which it lies, forgetting that it is as
warm on the western coast of America as it is
in the corresponding latitude on the coast of
Europe. The Goth parallel of North latitude,
which passes through the southern portion of
Russian America, also passes very near to the
capitals of Sweden and Russia-Stockholm
and ST. Petersburg. The fisheries of Russian
America are said to be among the best in the
world, and the climate is not so forbidding but
sheep of the finest quality are raised in great
abundance.
We have nothing to say specifically of the
wisdom of paying a large price for this or any
other territory, but we have no sympathy for
that spirit which would ignore iton the ground
that our country is large enough and win new
er need room for greater expansion. There
were those who entertained this narrow view
more than seventy years ago, and when Jeffer-
son acquired Louisiana they saw in the act the
entering wedge that was to rive the nation in
to thousand splinters. We confess we should
feel no alarm 1--WE knew that our national bird
was destined to hover over the ,ohole of North
America, and without concern can contem-
plate the event when Americans shall say:
'No pent up Utica contracts our powers,
The whole boundless continent is ours..'

of his early life with such exactness, and ex-

which he bore from infancy, that the father
was convinced, and embraced him as his long
lost soma son he was sure was living, whom
he had longed in his night visions and in the

THE ENGLISH OF SHAKESPEARE; Illustrated
in a Pathological Commentary on his HJulius
Cesar" By George l.. Craik, Professor of
History and ofEnglish Literature in Queens
College, Belfast. Edited by w. j. Rolfe.
Master of the High School, Cambridge, Mass
Boston: Crosby & Ainsworth.
This is the first appearance in this country,
of work the merits and uses of which have
been already well tested in the English schools.
The editor having used Professor Craik's book,
to his great satisfaction in his classes in Cam
bridge, conceived the idea of preparing re-
vised edition for the benefit of other schools.
and the result was the volume before us. The
original notes have been very carefully revised,
and some additions made to them and the ref
s--..... 70 ,.vIe passages Illustrating Shake
speare's English have also been largely added
to, but the body ofthe work remains unalteredI
Students of Shakespeare will find Professor
Craik, careful, acute, honest and painstaking
verDar critic; but beyond verbal criticism he
does not attempt to go. His work is pathological
purely, but in this field is as thorough and as
nearly exhaustive as anything well could be.
He commences by giving the version OF" Julius
Caesar which is believed to be the most au-
thentic attainable, and then follows the text
with commentary in which he explains at
length the meaning of all obsolete words and
doubtful passages, from the light which had
been thrown on them by the labors of previous
commentators, and by his own diligent re-
search. The book is a valuable addition toour
already large library of Shakspearean htera-
ture t.

The AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HoRTICUL-
TURE, for April, has peen received at this Of
fee, and like former numbers shows an i'm
provement in thing which has been good
from the start. The tone of the articles is
practical, and the subjects take wider range.
The January number contained thirteen arti-
cles, all written by the best writer's, and all of
them by gentlemen in or near Boston. The
present tissue-April,-co more than six
ty articles, contributed not only from different
parts of New England, but from the great West
and Southwest. Among them we find an arti-
Gle on Apple Culture, by DIR. Warder, the well
known Western Pomoiogist; A New Camelia,
with illustration Jon Fruit Critics,by the author
ofMy Farm at Edgewood; Fie4d Culture of
the Grape, by e. w. Bull, the originator of the
Concord Grape; The Western Prairies, by NJ
L. Dunlap; Select Variety of Peas, by Burr;
Vineyard Culture, by M. b. Bateman; The
Lawn, by @. L. Flint; Atmospheric Changes,
by D. M. Balch a continuation of ID. Kirk
lands article, The Magnoliacear Grape Gull
ture in Minnesota; Protecting Seeding Straw
berries; The Red Spider; Garden Agricul-
ture, &C., &c. With its elegant mechanicalex-
ecution and literary ability,-with the practi-
cal experience of its contributors, success is
certain; and The American Journal Of Hort'cu1-
ture will be the recognized authority on all
subjects which it covers.
