Frank Leslie, the publisher of eighteen
Illustrated newspapers and magazines,
has just added to the list his NeaO POpW-
lar Monthly, a marvel of elegance and
cheapness. 1t is nearly double the size
of any magazine published, each num-
Der containing one hundred and twenty
eight qTlarto pages, eighty-one lllustra-
tions, a beautiful chrome ithograph
frontispiece, and is brim full of choice
literature. We name as few of the adj
mirable articles In the first number-one
completely illustrating and describing
the Centennial Exhibition at Philadel-
phia-also Degrading Punishment of
Women" illustrated - an interesting
sketch of the life and assassination OF
Marat, the French revolutionist, with
portrait = the different modes of fire
producing among the aborigines, Illus
trated-biographical sketch and portrait
of the great millionaire, VIM. B. Astor,
and view of Aston Library. Among the
excellent stories which give so much life
to this magazine we notice Chow we
Shot the Falls" an Adirondack Adven-
ture, "Pearl Morgan's Revenge, YHul
dah's Defeat" "Diamond Cut Dla-
mond," "One Night" by Eta w.
Pierce, sPaul's Choice, FLINT and
Steel "The Story of Raephel zelda,
THE Fix Mr.. Ferrers Was H." There
are over sixty articles illustrated by
elghty-two engravings, and is furnished
one year, postage paid, for $3.50. The
Popular Monthly has already reached a
circulation of $4,000 copies a success
never before recorded of any publication
of its class. Send twenty cents to Frank
Leslie, New York, for sample copy, by
mail free. Canvassing agents should
secure territory for this successful raaga-
zine. An elegant chrome is given as
premium. Write at once for terms.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1876-02-10

A GENTLEMAN of Talbot County Ga.
sent twelve bales of cotton to Savannah
nine years ago. He then refused 40
cents pound for it. The other day b s,
merchants wrote they had another offer
for it, and what to do, when they received
the reply to continue to hold it if there
was anything left. A simple calculation
will show that the storage alone has
amounted to $648, the insurance to $162,
and loss in weight $37. employing
present prices leaking a total of S847. so,
bringing the planter in debt $127.50, or,
leaving insurance out, leaves him ahead
S35, with the loss of interest. If he had
accepted the first offer, nine years ago,
he would have had $1,000 and interest
for nine years.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1876-02-10
Spain and the United States.

The New York Evening Post says the
future relation of our Government to
Spain must take one of three courses I:
1. The Federal administration will re-
tire from its position and withdraw it's
menace, or permit it to remain an empty
threat-a course which would make the
administration and the country ridicu-
lous before the world. 2. Spain will
weld to the menace and consent to the
independence of Cuba, or accept mere
protectorate over the island-a course
wholly at variance with Spanish char
acter and without precedent in Spanish
history. 8. The United States will
actively intervene in Cuban affairs and
make good their threats at the hazard
and cost of war.
The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1876-02-10

nations of Europe, and the wanderings
of the Spaniards In search of gold and
immortal youth, are told with graphic
power.
Every step of our colonial history is
traced with patient fidelity, and the
sources of those noble, and we trust, en-
during institutions which have made our
country free and great, are shown with
remarkable clearness. The causes of our
great struggle for Independence are told
with q logical force and pbility unsur-
passed In any work of the day. Then
follows a clear and succinct account of
the formation of the Federal Constitu-
ton the establishment of the Union
the course of affairs until the breaking
out of the Second War with England
and full and comprehensive account of
that War and It's results. The events of
our career from the close of that contest
to the commencement of the Civil War,
follow in their order. The history of the
Civil War is related with intense vigor,
and with strict fidelity to truth; and the
work closes with an account of the course
of affairs since the end of that great con-
fict. The author writes throughout
with the calmness and impartiality of
historian and pleads the cause of no
party or section. He states facts, points
out the lessons which they teach, and
appealing neither to passion nor politi-
cal feeling, trusts to the good sense of
his country to sustain his views. In
order to render the work complete in
every respect the author has added to
it an appendix, giving an account of the
approaching international Centennial
Exhibition.
1t is comprised in one large, handsome
octave volume OF 925 pages, and contains
442 fine engravings on steel and wood of
historical personages and scenes. The
price is SO low that all can afford to pur-
chase copy, and each subscriber is pre-
scented with superb photographic en-
craving of the Centennial Exhibition
Buildings and Grounds. The book is
sold by subscription only, and the pub
fishers want agents in every county.
