Our Young Folks, .

And the RIVERSIDE lMAGAZLNE -.
BY the union of these popular month
lies, ScRIBNER & Co. are enabled to offer
a magazine for children superior in eoery
respect TO any that has preceded it.
Retaining and combining the best fea-
lures of Our You've Folks" and the
RIVERSIDE MAGAZINE" ST. NICHO-
LAS adds to these, others of great value,
distinctively and peculiarly rs own.
Coming, at time when the flood of
sensational literature and vulgar pictures
for children has reached its height, the
pure pages of ST. NICHOLAS, with their
beautiful illustrations, and clear, strong
English, SHOW well 10y contrast. and offer
a guarantee to parents that their children
enjoy safe, profitable and delightful COM
panionship in the new Magazine.
With its more solid reading matter it
combines a true spirit of mirth; it fairly
sparkles with fancy, ank overflows with
innocent fun. It's stories give both in
struction and delight, and its pictures are
art studies as we'll as illustrations.
The brightest intellects in the land,
from the venerable poet Bryant, to the
latest favorite of the American public,
have fastened to enrich 1t with their
treasures of story and song.
ST. NICHOLAS has THREE SPLEEN
DID SERIAL STORIES: One for Boys, by
Mr.. j. T. TRowBRIDGE, late editor of
"OUR You've Folks" one for Girls, by
their own favorite, OLIVE THoRNE. of

From numerous letters received from
Parents and Children, we select the fol-
lowing by lady in Mississippi:

''lit OUT last spring TO save his friends
from exposure rather than himself he left be.
Hind him the bonds of the Pekir dis
tllers covering some 100000. After his dis.
appearance these bonds could nowhere be
found. The fact is, with Harper out of The
way, the dishllerS had no difficulty 10 ct
their bonds out of the way also. But Harper
could be communicated with, and he Offer, |,
ifa safe conduct was given him, to come ba, k
and testify as to those bonds, and the terms
being accedcd to, he came back. The result
Is, that the distillers have "comc down." and
the government RECEIVERS about 100000 that
otherwise would have been lost This is
enough to cover the amount Of Hayper's de
falcation, and it Is now supposed the govern
ment is disposed to be lenient with him.
Ut all events, Harper does not propose 10 re
turn to his hiding place in Canada, but will
give bail for his appearance, and standa trial
on the charge Of being a detaultcr, decision
which, ii is said fills some of the Springfield
politicians with no little dismay.
