This nance deals with morals, politics and
the Macmillan question, and is consequently
rot much OF novel in the ordinary acceptation
OF that term. The heroine, Margaret, has an
"sffnity," but does not, like the woodhull peo-
pie, consider herself justified in breaking all
existing tics in order to effect a union with the
sIecial one. She adheres to her husband
solely through consideration for his happiness
and welfare and is very miserable, but has a
good conscience. The book has passed to a Sec
ord London edition, showing that it has readers.

Through X. B. Mohun Il Co.
While there is not very much in this book of
travels absolutely new, and the style of the
writer as BELTS his cloth is not unbecomngly
lively. il yet has good deal OF interest as show
ing how the trip around the world can be made
in the actual travelling time of seventy-fve DAYS,
ard how the trip can best be made within saw
year, so as to apportion the proper amount Of
time TO each point reached, and with due regard
TO the seasons when each country is visited to
the best advantage. The most interesting Dor.
ton of the volume is that describing the orien
tals-tbe japanese, Chinese, and East Indians
DIR. Prime does not seem to be sangune that
the japanese will effect all the progress counted
upon in their behalf and rates them, intellect
ually, below the Chinese.
