LITERARY NOTICES.

The PSYCHOLOGICAL JOURNAL for
December is an admirable closing num-
Der for the present year, it abounds in
profitable suggestions and pleasant
reading. There are portraits and sketch
es of Mr.. John S. Bender Of Indiana,
and of Frederic the Great, Prince Eu-
gene, Gustavus Adolphus, Wallenstein,
and the Old Dessauer; also, good hits
at Modern Progress in the Advancing
and Rctreating Races, and National
Types both illustrated. Character
Three-fold; scientific exposition of
mental phenomena. Spiritual Evolu-
ton, an excellent essay ON the growth
of moral thought Sex in Education,
put in light, as logical as humorous,
some of the main points in this great
controversy. Only TRIES offers ad-
monition of general application. The
Labor Problem is an encouraging view
of that great paradox. Agricultur, as
related to Civilization is true. Literary
Sharks shows up the plagiarists i'll a
strong light. Several good Poems are
sandwiched among the prose articles.
Jerome Pringle's Payday is also worth
mention, as lively, social story. The
MEMORIAL Department is unusually full,
and the whole number creditable to the

MADE LASp.-The reclamation of a
very valuable tract of land upon one of
the Scotch rivers was made in a very
simple manner quite recently. Stakes
were driven into the mud at the water
edge at regular distances parallel to the
course of the river. Between these
stakes branches of trees and brush were
thickly matted or intcrlaced. This sim
pie contrivAnce resulted in the deposit
at every hiSh water of large quantities
OF silt and mud, until at last an en-
bankmcnt was thrown up without any
further expense, sufficient to keep out
the water except at high floods. The
land thus reclaimed was sown with
grasses. and is now used for grazing
cattle and is valued at 5000 per acre
for this purpose alone. There are thou
sands of acres alongside of our rivers,
both upon the coast and inland, which
might be reclaimed in this or similar
WAYS AZ very little expense.

\ WonAx's CHANCE. Marriage sta
tistics have been analvzcd to show the
probabilities of marriage for women at
different ages. Surprising the sum of a
wonan's chances of marriage to be one
hundred, she exhausts between the ages
of fifteen and twenty years, fourteen
and half chances. If she lives un-
married from twenty to five, fifty-two
more of her chances have vanished into
thin air. Ii she remains unmarried
for Eve more years she will turn thirty
with only fifteen ard a-half chances out
Of her hundred left. After thirty-ive
she has eleven and a-haf chances, and
at this point the statistician gave up
his calculation, except that he assures
us that even if Il woman has lived un-
married sixty years, she still has the
tenth OF Il chance OF getting married
out of the hundred with which she is
supposed to have started life.
