LITERAT URE AND JOURNALISM.

in its new form and new dress, enlarged to TWEEN
ty-four quarto pages, the pages something larger
than those of the old Round Table. Topographic
cally 1t is all that could be desired-the head, we
think is the handsomest of all the New York
papers. Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. sedley edit the
consolidated journal, and we recognize marked
difference in the tone Of the cditorials-a little
more Citizen-ized as 1t were. All the features OF
the two papers are retained, and some new ones
added The paper deserves success, and no doubt
will soon attain large circulation.

table of contents. Charles Reade's capital story
increases in interest, aud the present instalment

"more." Mr.. Grant White contributes an essay

ety." Justin Mccarthy under the title of The
Irish Church Dcthroned," gives brief exposi-
ton OF the Irish Church bill. Eugene Benson
