scRIBNER's MONTHLY FOR FEBRUARY
A more readable number of SCRIBNER's
than the February has, perhaps, never been
issued There is strange story by Miss
Phelps, "Since died. in which the gates
seem to have been set aiar, indeed; puz-
zling account by Noah Brooks of what he
calls "The San Rafael Phalanstery;"
curious discussion by Philip Gilbert Ham
erton, the English art-critic, of "One
Phase of the Marriage Question: an in
teresting description by Albert Rhodes of
GA Court Ball at the Hague;" a new story
by Miss traitor, entitled "Little Miss
Frere;' some pleasant and pointed talk by
Junius Henri Browne, on Borrowing as
Social Science" trenchant and most
timely paper ON cart at the CAPITOL a
lively description by Lady Blanch Murphy,
of that peculiar British Institution, "An
and entertaining article on "The Tehaun-
tepec Ship Canal;'' strikingly illustrated
paper OH Siam, elm and Around Bang
kok;' and an illustrated piece of popular
science "How Men Learned to Analyze
the SUM-" The most striking poems of the
number are ga Vision of St. Eligius," by
Geo. Macdonald, as quantity spiritual as a
poem of Herbert's; "One Night" weird
thing by Amanda T. Jones; Covert" by
II. H.; and "For Thoughts by Celia
Thaxter. Dr. Hollands arthur Bonni-
castle" contains the record of a remarka-
BILE voyage. In his Topics of the Time he
has Thoughts after Christmas" 1.-THE
Neglect of the Rich,' Habits of Literary
Labor "To the Memory Of Geo. P. Put
man," The Old Cabinet has Number
One hundred and eleven. Home and
Society contain, "The Hospitality we
should like to See" -" AT the Front Door"
"On Skates" and Furniture for the
Sick-room." Culture and Progress dis
can Oracle of our Day." etc. Nature and
Science is as interesting and practicle as
usual; and, by way of variety, there is a
pretty little child poem in the departme mt
of Etchings. The publishers advertise the
November and December numbers sent
free to all subscribers for 1878.
"Mr. Edward King. one of the brightest
graduates Of the Republican,, and most
poetic observers among Journalists. has
closed his late connection with the Boston
journal to accept an engagement with
Scribners Monthly. He starts at once for
the new South, and will furnish thence a
series of papers during the ensuing year,
.Scri6ner's characterizing him justly as zone
of the most brilliant writers on our staff
On Saturday he was honored with fare
well banquet at the Parker House, by the
young journalists Of Boston. By the way,
Mr.. Kings novel will shortly be issued by
Lee & Shepard, entitled 'Kentucky's Love:
Or Roughing it Around Paris.''

THE NEXT PRESIDENT.

Although it is quite early to speculate as
to who will be our next President. or to
consider the claims of any man or section,
we quote the following ripple on the sur
face of public opinion, without entering
particularly on this line of discussion:
Maryland proposes to name the next
Observation-Disclosures Item.
1t is a little early in the day to name"
the next President, unless Maryland and
the Item mean the President for the term
ending March, 4, 1877, which we will not
be cautiously critical enough to suppose
that..they do not mean. Maryland has some
good Presidential on both sides of the house.
Among the Democrats there are Governor
Whyte and Reverdy johnson. John w.
Garrett, and half dozen other strong men.
Reverdy is, it is true, little musty, but he
is ga gentlemen and scholar" He may
be President, but we doubt it. Among the
Republicans the only really strong man
that we know of is our present Postmaster
General. If the commercial portion of the
community were called upon to select
President from Maryland, they would I'M
doubtedly take Mr.. Tome, who is one of
the merchant princes of America. AS we
said, however, it is too soon to talk about a
successor to General Grant Washington
Republican.
To which the Item again responds:
"Mr. Foley is one of the best Of CUES
sers. The year is 1877, and the man is
Creswell, if we may judge from the signs
of the times, and from the Maryland and
Southern papers. If Pennsylvania should
subscribe, the question will be settled in
his favor. Mr.. Creswelfs course commends
him to public respect, confidence and graft
tude. Should he succeed with postal tele-
graphy, the people will bless him. Ger
tainly he is in the line of succession

NANCAL OF WEEDS,

This is the title of a very useful and in
stractive little volume, by DR.. Ezra Mich
ener, of New Garden, Chester county, Pa,
who is a distinguished botanist. The vol
ume is dedicated " to the Farmers Clubs,
10 the young, the intelligent, the enterpris
ing cultivators of the soil, wherever found"
The work proposes to point out and botan-
ically describe the numerous weeds which
annoy the farmer and rob his crops. by
drawing so much sustenance from the
soil: and give the best methods for their
determination. As a manual of botany
the work will prove of immense value to
the children of the farmer, who by its aid
may become acquainted thoroughly with
the numberless plants, designated weeds"
The authors definition of "weed," is
"plant out of its place
In treating this subject he says:
The intelligent operator will first inquire,
what is this weed ? Is it an annual? a b.
aanuaI? per-annudl! at what season
does it ripen seed? has it any other mode
of reproducing its kind ? and phat? what
roots rirdctous, and capable of producing
new plants, when suffered to remain in the
soil? when these, and similar inquiries
have been duly answered, he will have
learned two important lessons,
WHAT TO DO, AND HOW TO Do IT.
To facilitate the acquisition of this
knowledge, have tabulated the species of
plants embraced in this work, according to
their respective duration, and other lead
ing characteristics, which have special re-
lation to the means best adapted to their
determination. The plants composing
each list, being analogous in these respects,
may be considered as requiring the same
general management: subject to such minor
notifications as the habits Of each species
may suggest.
The price of this useful little volume is
Is cents, to be had of the publisher, Mr..
. Henry L. Brinton, Editor of the Oxford
Press, Oxford, Pa, and should be in the
hands of every intelligent farmer. We say
i,stelligsnt, for there are mutitudes Of plod-
ders who would not look into the pages of
book, for information to assist them in
their business, if library Of the most val
liable works on agriculture were at their
bed side. And these are the men who
make farming the unsightly and distaste-
full business it is charged to be by its enc
mics. We will perhaps, make further ex-
tracts from the little volume before us, at
future time.
