NcsC Publications.

The NORTHERN MONTHLY for Febru-
AIRY has two articles which are of imme-
date interest. One of these is Untitled
" Organizing Public Opinion-a Cure
for Corruption" Its author is David G..
Croly, prominent editor on the New
York World, and its pivotal idea is that
there is a call in the country for the es-
Enlistment of "A Board Of National Cen
sOrs, who shall be to the country what
the Citizens Committee is to New York
City. The suggestion is quite novel,
and will probably call out very consid-
cradle discussion. The other paper is
upon the Episcopal Clergy of New York,
and is a singularly fair exposition of the
Ritualistic movement. Mrs. Prescott
Spoflord's powerful story, " The Thiefin
the Night" is also continued, and in
creases decidedly in interest. A beauti-
full little song is woven into the texture
ofChapter VI. Naples and Vesuvius"
is the title ofan opportune paper by Ro-
bert Dale Owen. 1t consists, in part. of
a vivid description of an eruption wit
messed by that gentleman, which will
help the reader to understand the recent
movements of that celebrated volcano.
Whitehead's History of the English
Language" is sure to interest not only
philogists, but the public at large " Tn
bds bleu" is clever story Of girl with
brains, who could manage a joke neatly.
Cortlandt Parker's final paper on Ma
jor-General Philip Kearny gives great
insight into one of the finest officers our
army ever had, and whose early death
was great national calamity. The
Editorial Department is spicy, brilliant,
and varied. Louis Gaylord Clark gives
a contribution among others.
THE WORLD AT HOME, published by
Evans & Co., Philadelphia. This is a
new enterprise, and bids fair to be sue
cess. To secure large circulation, the
" divided system" A large sum of mo-
ney has been set apart and invested in
goods such as are most needed in the
household, and each subscriber is allow
ed to participate in them. This should
not be COMPOUNDED with gift and ticket
enterprises as have heretofore existed
1t is not pretended that more is given
than subscribers pay for, but simply that
the profits of the first years publication
will in this manner be used to enlarge
the subscription list. We consider this
magazine alone as fully worth the price
