Magazine Notices.

The June Atlantic is an unusually strong
and rilliant number. 1t has four of the most
attractive magazine writer's in America
Howells, Warner, Aldrich and Richard Grant
White, besides an article from the author OF
certain Dangerous Tendencies in American
Lille, and four chapters of that excellent serial
story, Irene the Missionary, which is rumored
to be written by one of the most popular of
American story-tellers. The opening article is
careful Study of New England Factory Town,
Fail River, Mass, setting forth simply and
fully the condition, character and ideas of the
mill operatives This paper should be care
fully and generally read. Mr.. W. j. Linton,
the eminent engraver, writes of Art in En-
craving on Wood, criticising with pungent
severity some of the illustrations re-
Gently published in Scribners Month
ly. Mr.. Warner describes in an interest
ing style The People for whom Shakespeare
wrote. Mr.. Howells writes with inimitable hui
NOR about Buying Horse. Mr.. Aldrich discus
ses Dobson's Proverbs in Porcelain. Mr.. Whites
accounted A Day on the Thames is one of the
most entertaining articles Mr.. White has yet
written of his English observations. DR.. George
M. Beard contributes an essay well worth
reading on the Physical Future of the Amer
lean People. Besides these, there are eleven
poems grouped under one general head
Rhymes in Many Moods; critical paper ON
Recent American Novels capital short story.
Miss Martin by Annie Porter; seventeen pa
pers in the Contributors Club; and the usual
chapter on Recent Literature, beginning with
an enthusiastic notice of the new subscription
edition of Longfellow's poems.
