A Challenge,

Prof. Harry Gilbert has issued challenge
as follows: That The balloon A. Erken-
brecher, under my management, will ascend
higher and remain longer in the air, and
make longer trip, than any balloon in this
country, except Samuel A. Kings balloon
Buffalo, of ninety thousand feet capacity.
This is open TO any and al, but particularly
for Mr.. r. L. j. Miles balloon Lev. Steele.
My only object in this matter is to prove
that an experienced aeronaut is superior to
an amateur, and to carry out my views |
will give Mr.. Miles the advantage of bal
loon holding fourteen thousand more feet
of gas than the Erkenbrecher does. will
take a representative OF Mr.. Miles with me,
and will furnish one to go with his balloon,
each to be provided with the necessary sci
entiic instruments for measuring height,
distance and all things needed for an honest
and faithful ending to the affair"

Florentine, and the authenticity of the
letter attributed to him; the present
treats of his map, the North American
section of which is produced now with the
coast lines foI the first time, as an illustra-
ton to the text. Able authorities have con-
sidered Verrazano the map maker as myth,
but the light now thrown upon him dispels
all doubt of his existence A copy of the
map is known to have been presented to
Henry VIII. These interesting contribu-
tions to the history of early American dis
covery will close with final article on the
"Globe of Verrazano," one of the rarest
treasures Of the New York Historical So
ciety. Next in historical order comes a
Reply from Mr.. o. H. Marshall to DR.. John
Culinary Shea, and General John S. Clark,
upon the vexed question of the location of
the Iroquois Fort attacked by Champlain in
his expedition of 1915, which continues to
excite an interest not confined to the i'm
mediate locality or antiquaries. Upon its
settlement depend many points in Indian
habits and immigration.
The editor contributes a sketch OF VIM.
Livingston, the war Governor of New Jer-
sey in the Revolution, which is illustrated
by a well-executed sketch of his mansion,
the famous old Liberty Hall still standing at
Elizabethtown, New Jersey. This is fol-
lowed by an account of the siege of Savan-
nah in 1879, written at the time by John
Harris Cruger, Colonel in the Royal Proyin-
cials, and sent to his brother and father in
New York city. This valuable document
now first appears in print In contrast
with this is a letter written by Quaker
from Philadelphia by the name of Reynel
in 1869, in which he claims to have been the
first signer of the Non-importation Memo
rial of the traders OF that city. The notes
are full of historical details. Those of DIR.
Baird on Lesler's birthplace, and of Bre-
WORT on Spanish Policy in America, are
curious and important. In another the
Sea serpent is vindicated against his detrac-
tors. The literary notices covereight pages,
and furnish an interesting guide to readers
of American history.
