THE ALDINE.-This superb enter
prise is being steadily and surely carried
forward to an artistic development that
even its most sanguine friends would
hardly have anticipated. The issue for
January, coming as it does upon the
heels Of the great Christmas number,
might possibly miss some of the atten-
ton which the enhanced artistic value
deserves. As the initial number of q
new year it is most important as sort
of Justification Of the expectation ex-
cited by the promises of the publishers
in their Widely-scsttered prospectus.
While it would be hardly possible TO
note any marked change in the uniform
and unrivaled excellence of the me-
cbanlcal execution, which has giveE
The AL1ine a worldwide reputation, we

standard of the designs-at least, it is
very evident that the conductors are
now able to give their subscribers
designs which, aside from their in
trinsie merit, are interesting and valua-
bic as expositions of the style
of our foremost artists The pros
peetus gives a list Of contributors
which includes nearly all the painters of
high standing in the country, men who
have never before cOndeseended to come
before the medium Of fine wOod-engTaver.
In the January number we have no less
than three large designs from Thomas
Moran, whose large picture of the Vel
ioWstone Valley was purchased by Con-
gress for ten thousand dollars. Probably
Mr.. Moran il the strongest man in bis
line In America, and the exhi5ition Of
designs from his pencil was the best
card the Akdtas could possibly have
played. DIR. Moran's pictures illustrate
