The June Magazines.


The GALAXY contains articles by DR.. T. NJ.
Coan, Junius Henri Browne, Richard Grant
White, Miss $. L. Hopkins, and other writers
whose names are not so well known to maya
zine readers. Perhaps the most noticeable arti-
Gle in the number is sketch of Prince Achlo
Murat nephew of the great Napoleon, who, at the
close OF his unces career in Europe, came to
this country, married All American and
lived many years in Florida. Another
attractive article is picturesque description OF
the West OF England, the birthplace OF Fielding
and Hannah More, with It's quaint customs and
language, its romantic legends, its curious ar
ehltectural relics of the Druids and bygone ra-
ees, its old churches and varied scenery, all
lightly touched upon By the graceful pen OF al
accomplished writer. Mr.. j. Austin Ste
vens is represented by an interesting historical
sketch of the old merchants of New York and
their action during the troublons times immedi-
ately following the French war III America and
culininatng in the Revolution. DR.. Coan dis.
cusses the power aud privileges and abuses OF
the press, and points ont some features OF mod
ern journalism which will be new to most read
ers. The number contains instalmenta OF two
serial stories-"Leah a Woman of Fashion, By
Mrs. Edwards, and "Dear Lady Diadain," by
Justin Mccarthy; also one or two short tales and
poems,

The .IIemV Rusincss

IL is barely possible that gentlemen who are
connected with daily newspapers may appear
in society or even on public occasions without
having note; books sticking out of every coat
pocket, or lead pencils lying back Of both ears.
They may attend places of amusement to be en-
tertaiied just other persons of different
professions and occupations do, without having
one eye on the next Issue of their paper and
the other OH the lookout for somebody to get
his head smashed. But there is class of pso-
pie who seem to think that 'newspaper men
have only such all interest in the affairs OF life
HI leads them to be constantly prying around in
search OF news-casualites especially-snd that
II anything happens q little out of the regular
course in any public place it is their business
(these singularly impressed people) to advertise
the presence Of newspaper representative
1t may be taken for granted that members of
the press will il insight of an occurrence worth
noticing, see 1t without having their attention
directed to it there is no need of special in
terference to make personal thing Of it Doc
tors go through the streets to public places
without being hailed-if some one happens to
have leg broken BY being run over--with the
cheerful salutation, ''There's chance to make
dollar !" Why may not representative Of

himself on public OCCASIONS be left to him.
self without being shouted to, "Theres an

This merely by suggestion to many wel-mean-
ing people, who are not alone TO blame, be-
cause journalism socalled furnishes too many
Bohemians who seek notoriety and like to be
advertised wherever they go. There are some
gentlemen, however, left in the profession.

Fast Trains for the Centennial.


The train that carried the New York and New
England merchants to Philadelphia, to see how
the Centennial preparations were progressing,
made the run between the two citi es in one hour
and forty-eght minutes. The distance is nine
ty-six miles, and the average rate of speed near
ly a mile minute. 1t is said that the Pennsylva-
MIA Railroad Company design running express
trains at this speed between the two cities dur
ing the Centennial, but less rapid rate would
doubtless accomplish the object in yiew-name-
ly, to make it practicable for the people of New
York city to visit the Exposition and return the
same day. Another result, too, OF such quick
trains, the suggestion Of which has been freely
made to bring the cash out of New York's pock-
ets will be that many foreign visitors will doubt
less stay at the New York hotels, and make oc-
cssional excursions over to the Exposition. This
will not benefit Philadelphia great deal, but as
1t is evident that the hotel space in that
city is unequal to the accommodation of any great
number of visitors, and is not now likely to be
much increased, the relief from the dilemma
afforded by New Yorks contiguity will be well
come rather than otherwise
The rapid speed proposed seems at first view
somewhat dangerous, yet trains in England reg
ularly run as fast as forty to fifty miles hour,
and some faster. The railroads there, however,
have one great advantage ovar ours. in not
crossing wagon roads at grade. They thus
avoid risks which We take, and their swift trains

The Old. Old Story,

The Boston Herald says that there is living in
Charlestown, Mass., respectable but poor lady
who, thirty years ago, living in England, was
courted by young man. but for some reason
declined bis offered marriage, and united her
self with another person. Several years ago the
husband of the lady died, and since that time
she has lived in this district. The news Of the
husbands death reached the lady's lover of thir-
ty years ago, he opened a correspondence with
her, and finally asked her hand, saying that, al
though discarded by her, he had never ceased to
hold her memory dear, and that such had been
his affection for her that, though he had had
several good opportunities OF marriage, he had

John w. Gnrrett Tor President

Montgomery Blair has written a letter to ex-
press his choice for John W. Garrett as the DEM
ocratic nominee for the Presidency. He says
have no candidate in view, but If the nomina-
tons were now to be made should hesitate be-
tween Tilden and Garrett. Circumstances have
for the time made Tilden the central figure in the
reform movement which the nomination
of Greeley began and his nomination would
force the reform issue. CARROTS nomination
would force the anti-monopoly ISSUE which un-
derlies the reform issue and goes to the causes
of the prevailing corruption in public affairs.
