NEW PUBLICATIONS.

The British Quarterly RevielO, for October, re-
published by the Leonard Scott Publishing Com
pany, Al Barclay street. N. Y, contains as follows
1. Religious Art.
2. The Atomic Theory Of Lucretius.
g. The poetry of Alfred Tennyson. 1u.
4. The Etruscans and Their Language.
s. The Boarding Out of Pauper Orphans.
6, Modern Necromancy,
6. Isaac Casaubon.
8. Contemporary Literature. . |.
The object of the essay on Religious Art" is to
ascertain "the truth about the relative positions,
attributes and powers Of art and godliness." On
the ground that art is the labor of human hands,
whereas religion Is an aspiration Of the soul, of
which the hands are ignorant, 1t Is contended that
art cannot be religious.
"One great aim Of Lucretius, In the De Rerun
Ndtrd was to set forth the scientific truths Of the
time; and its value in the eyes of science now
lies in its full and exact statement Of an ancient
theory which the latest experiments confirm u
The Atomic Theory, which the present article
fully explains, did not originate with Lucretius,
but is attributed to Epicurus, and was taught by
Democritus, who died B. c. $50. The creed of Lu-
cretius is pronounced to be substantially the same
as that of the modern materialist.
Article III. begins with a review of Queen
Mary" and branches off into notice of Tenny.
sons other poems their merits, defects and popu-
larity and the probable permanence of the au-
thors poetical reputation.
The paper on "The Etruscans and their Lam
guage" is chiefly interesting to philologists. It
contains careful comparison of thetheores of
DR.. Corssen, who believes the Etruscan to be an
Itaic dialect, and of Mr., Isaac Taylor, who claims
that 1t is of Ugric derivation.
The essay on Modern Necromancy" points out,
that while there is ample testimony as to the &C.
currence of phenomena inexpllcable according
to the general order and limitation of organic
life, the study of these phenomena has not ad
yanced a single step beyond the establishment Of
their objective reality" that Its study Is attended
with disadvantage and danger, and with results
that are absolutely unreliable and that modern
spiritualislr isidentlcal with ancient necromancy
The only biographical notice in this number is
a sketch of the life and works OF Isaac Casau-
bon," representative scholar Of the sixteenth
century, who, living at time VIXEN Catholic
power was in the ascendant, found his progress
constantly checked by his firm adherence to the
Protestant faith, which the constant efforts made
by his Catholic friends for his conversion were
powerless to overcome Many interesting details
are given, with extracts from Casaubon's letters
and journal.
