Some American Sporting Dogs, which ap-
pears in the April number of Scribner's, is from
the pen of William M. Tileston, Esq, of the
Forest and Stream. The unique illustrations
include fine wood-cuts of celebrated American
hunting-dogs. The writer discusses the com.
paratve virtues of pointers and settlers, train.
ing dogs for the field. etc. Of light charac
Ter Is Howard Pyle's sketch of Chincocteague-
little visited island of wild ponies off the Vir
ginia coast-where Mr.. Sheppard's pencil has
found congenial subjects. Out of my Window
at Moscow, by Eugene Schuyler, contains
sketches of Russian life and manners by an
acute observer, with some remarkable pictures.
A fourth article, A Trip to the Black Hills, by
Leander P. Richardson, shows that all is not
gold that gltters in the Deadwood region
while fifth, Mr.. Clarence Cooks Beds and
Tables, Stools and Cardlesticks, contains some
informal stalk here and there about dining
tables, decorations, etc. There is also an illus
tration with each Of the serials: DR.. Hollands
Nicholas Minturn, in which there is dinner at
the Coates; and That Lass o'Lowrie's, by Mrs.
Burnett, which is to end with the May INSTALL
ment aud to appear in book form at once. Two
drawings by Mr. Moran are given with The
Hills of Lingamore, poem by Mrs. M. W.
Hackelton.
OF the unllustrated papers, Colonel Warnings
Farm Villages discusses the financial
and moral disadvantages of the presen t
system of farm-life, with plans showing how
they can be remedied in new settlements. This
paper is to be followed soon by others on Viii
lage Improvements. There is also some advice
on Old Eyes and Spectacles, by DR.. Burnett;
thoughts on April, having the charm of job n
Burroughs; and long-short story of New Eng
