prose adaptation from Shakespeares las lou
Like It," modelled after Charles Lambs TALES
from Shspespeare and several essays and
sketches Of the latter class, the picture OF
Louis H., the eccentric King of Bavaria, is
most entertaining and as it is written by the
French General Eli Reclus, a credible author-
ty, we are obliged to accept the facts strange as
they are, and wonder whether the occupant of
the Bavarian throne is more fool or mailman.
DR.. T. M. Coan, in his essay entitled "a New
Country" presents very clever analysis OF
American character which cannot fail to have
a good effect upon those who have exaggerated
ideas of the national development and import
ance in the world. Mr.. George L. Austin,
whose article upon Canova and Napoleon, ia q
late number of The Galaxy" was so popular,
contributes very attractive sketch Of Michel
Angelo; including page in the history of the
great master which is now published for the
first time, having been only recently exhumed
from the archives of the royal library at Flor
ence. my Farm at the FiveMile Stone will
interest all whs have watched the wonderful
development of New York during the past
quarter of q century.
The departments of science, literature and
gossip contain their usual varied attractions for
