Anderson, Professor of the Scandinavian Languages in the University of Wisconsin. The work is full in its scope, giving larger part of the Prose Edda than has been given hitherto in any translation into English or other modern tongue. The notes are suffi- ciently full for all neeessary purposes Of ex- planation, and the vocabulary furnishes the only additional aid that the reader needs to enable him to comprehend the text easily. The enthusiasm with which Professor Anderson has devoted himself to the task of interpre- ting Morse mythology and legendary lore is scarcely matched by that of any other Scandi- navian scholar among us, and those who wish to make acquaintance with the legends of the North can do so very pleasantly under Pro- lessor Anderson's guidance.

 The scheme by which the Mormons monopo- lize most of the tillable land in Utah is just now attracting some attention. Wherever they have planted 8 colony they have planted 8 sscity," and these so called cities have been used to take up vast tracts of land. The Ter ritorial Legislature has incorporated 37 cities in Utah. Although all but two of the thirty seven have obtained patents from the United States for the land upon which they stand, and an additional quantity for their speculative growth, according to their population, yet they exercise corporate authority over the whole area specified in their Territorial char ters. For example, the City of Moroni was incorporated with 40 square miles, or 40 sec tions of land, containing 25, 600 acres. It was incorporated in 1866, but in 1870, four years later, it's population consisted of only 633 per sons. When it sought patent from the United States in 1872 it's residents were so few that only half of one section, or 32O acres, could this so- called ssCity" of Moroni exercises cor porate authority over the whole 40 square miles included in its Mormon charter Salt Lake Oity's corporate extent is 49 square miles, or 31 ,36O acres. Under the act of 1S67 the maximum amount of land which could be patented to acity was 2 ,56O acres. The authori- ties of Salt Lake City represented that this would not be enough for it's municipal neces- sities, and therefore Congress, by special act, gave the city patent for 5,72o acres. By the organic act of Congress under which the Ter ritory of Utah was established, the Legislature was forbidden to pass any law which would interfere with the primary disposal of the soil of the United States, and it is 8 question whether the action of the Legislature in incor- porsting these cities on the public lands has been strictly legal. It is certainly contrary to sound policy.
