TINS ATLANTIC MoSrHLY.-We have been
reading the Atlantic Monthly for February,
welcomed from W. 7. Berry & Co.. of Nash
willie. 1t is like the face OF an old friend,
which we love to look upon. The articles,
always interesting, for this month are not be-
low medium merit. We would commend to
our lady readers, the article on "Co-opera-
tive Housekeeping Some good truths are
boldly written, and, we would that all Wo-
men, might read such and catch the insplra-
tion, which some have, to be something more
than mere a housekeepln -machines" lor
oehoss Of a husbands thought and life. let
women be strong in heart and head and man
will be stronger still. The writer makes q
plausible plea for female Physicians, and
rightly claims for woman the same standard
Of Intellectual development As for man. She
erica out against that law which forces all
women into the came round of simple inces-
sAnt, domestic occupation, which, however
honorable and necessary in their place, YET
are strictly unintellsctual.
There are other articles in the February
number we would call attentionlte. II you
are interested in Sanitary matters, read COR
sumption in America IL in Astronomy read
Of the " Birth Of the Solar system." Or II
you would see how a once Protestant Ohurch
can verge on Romanism read "RitualiSm ia
England"
