ers it appears in a new dress-in larger type.
and with wider page. This is the third
change which has been made in the
type of the Magazine--each being an i'm
prOvement. The contents of the June num-
Der are especially attractive, and embrace
wide range of illustrated papers. poems, in

restful, aud bring about the reader the un-
mistakable atmosphere Of summer days
LIPPNcorr's MAGAZINE makes specially
of articles depicting social life aud manners at

spicuous in the June number Ia State

tanning description, with handsome illustra-
tons, of the Canadian vice-regl court. The
second of Mrs. wister's two papers on Paris

Illustrated paper, and in addition to these is
the usual entertaining variety of short sto-

The June ATLANTIC is an unusually strong
and brilliant number 1t has four of the
most attractive magazine writers in America,

Grant White, besides an article from the au-
thor of Certain Dangerous Tendencies in

On Tuesday the New York Tribune pub
lished highly characteristic letter from Hor-
ace Greeley addressed shortly before the bat
tie of the Wilderness, to three soldiers who
had determined to cross the confederate lines
as deserters in order to assassinate jefferson
Davis. The account given by the only one
of the three who came out of the battle of the
Wilderness alive shows that the plan was one
of those projects which cross the minds of
men when death seems certain in any event,
and men long to win something more than an
unnoticed grave. He then wrote to Greeley
for advice, and he wrote back that assassina-
ton was not among Gods means, nor was
Davis of special consequence. THE mon
ster that is devouring us, lie went on to say,
lis slAvery-the passion for using the igno-
rant and simple, not for their good, but for
ours alone" He predicted that the war
would last till the nation was purified of this,

The NEGRO EXODUS. -There are now 1928
negro families in st. Louis awaiting transpOr-
tation Kansasward, but the return current is
nearly as strong as that from the Mississippi
valley. The colored relief association cares
for the outgoing refugees, and several st.
Louis firms in the southern trade send back
all those whose experience has led them to
long for the old cotton fields again. The
western sanitary commission, an organization
which outlasted the war, has gone into the
relief business independent of the st. Louis
colored societies. It's members are opposed
to the exodus itself, but propose to make bet
ter provision for the refugees, now poorly
cared for in the city, An old foundry has
been fitted up to accommodate GOO and such
arrangements viii be made as shall insure the
health and comfort of the few who still come
up the river from time 10 time.
Some of the Kansas papers say that there
Is employment in that State for all the South
ern refugees, and that the demand for them
at present exceeds the supply.

According to Secretary Shermans response
to a recent Senate resolution there is now
81, 725, 104 of direct tax due and uncollected
from the States which participated in the late
rebellion. while the balances due from all the
other States and Territories amount to only
$455, 22S The larger items included in the
latter total are the taxes of Wisconsin and
Kansas, and for them oGsetting war claims
have been presented but not adjusted. OF
the Southern States from which direct taxes
are now due, Alabama heads the list with
$500, 600 and Georgia follows with $500, 900.
Secretary Sherman says that the laws of the
United States give him no alternative but the
collection of these taxes, as to leave them un-
collected will be an unconstitutional and in
equitable discrimination against those States
which have paid their share of the 500, OOO,-
600 levied in 1861. He therefore wants Con-
gress to decide whether any additional legis-
lation is necessary to enable tho collection to
go on, and if SO to give it Us soon as possible
so that there need be no further delay in at
tempting the collection.
