LpPNcoTT's, for May, is beautiful as ever,
and contains much pleasant and some valu-
able mat ter. There is an interesting paper on
the late John Neagle the artist; an article on
the Talmud containing information not given
in the paper in the London Quarterly which
has recently attracted so much attention a
graphic account of Gloucester and its fishing
population; a sketch of "The Court of the
Tuieries;" valuable article on CommunIca-
ton with the Pacific; fresh chapters of Mrs.
Davis novel of "Dallas Gallraith;" several
spirited short stories; the usual Monthly Cos
sip" which is we'll done, and other pleasant
matter. The poetry in this number is not re-
markable, but the June number will contain
an original poem of three hundred and twenty
four lines by Algernon Charles Swinburne,
whose poetry is always remarkable whatever
else may be said of it. For sale at CHS
holms. Esd
BLAcKwooD's MAGAZINE, for April, opens
with an article which has much of the pleas
ant flavor of 'Maga" in its early days. 1t is
on Horace, and the Causes of his Popularity,
and is an uncommonly graceful and pleasant
essay. Cornelius C'Dowd also re-appears in
this number, discoursing of "things in gem
eral;" the late Professor Aytoun isthe theme
of an appreciative article; and the Historical
Sketches of the Reign of George H." are con-
tnued. Other articles in this number are
Linda Tresser'-Part VII; "Charles Kean
and the Modern Stage;" 1.-THE New Nostrum
for Ireland" and "The Battle for Place.
Reprinted by the Leonard Scott Publishing
Co. 40 Fulton ST. New York
THE AMERICAN NATURALIST, for May, has
an attractive article by Mr.. S. II. Scudder, on
The Songs of Grasshoppers." The writer,
by means of musical notes and combinations
of consonants, has very skillfully represented
the songs of many of these little stimulating
musicians. The illustrations of his article are
not the least attractive part of it, The digni-
fed maestro of the chirping orchestra, whose
portrait graces the first page, can hardly fail
to be an object of admiration. Other papers
in this number are on Bears and Bear-hunt-
ing by Charles Wright; "The Geographical Dis
tribution of Animals" by Sidney Smith;
The Prong-horned Antelope" Qllustrated);
:" Do Snakes swallow their Young?" THE
Lakes of Lowa-Past and PRESENT." with some
