STORIES AND BALLADS; for Young
Folks. By Ellen Tracy Alden.-
New York: American Book Ex-
change, 30 Beekman street. Price,
so cents.
One of the pleasantest child books
we have seen for many day.
Everything in it is good. 1t is more
than good. 1t comes down to Child
life with reality that makes the
stories wholly enjoyable. It treats
children neither as imps nor little
angels, but live epitomes of men and
women. Many try to write children's
books, and few succeed. Ellen Tracy
Alden has a higher idea of the men,
tai powers of children than most
writer's Of juvenile works, and she
is right. Children follow the intri-
cacics of story and take in all its
leading points long in advance OF the
period of life usually marked out for
them. A book for child, in it's
language, its style, its arguments,
should be selected with more care
even than for those who are older.

Roasted TO Death by the Sun.

DR.. SchweInfurth, in a lecture which he
recently delivered at the Berlin Geographical
Society, on the subject of his latest explora-
tions in Central Africa, gave his hearers a
thrilling account of the mode in which CAPT.
tai punishment is inflicted upon criminals by
the AL Quadjis, a small tributary offshoot of
the great and powerful Djour people. The
malefactor condemned to die is bound to a
post firmly driven into the ground in some
open place where no trees afford a shade, and
is there slowly roasted to death-not by any
artificial means involving a waste of fuel, but
by the natural heat of the suns rays as they
reach our earth in its equatorial regions. To
protract his sufferings and to avert his too
speedy end by sunstroke, the ingenious Al
Quadjis cover their erring compatriot's head
with fresh green leaves, which effectually
shield his brain from Phgbuss darts. No
such protection is, however, accorded to his
body, which gradually dries up, shrinks to-
gether. and ultimately becomes carbonized.
One chance of salvation is open to the roast
ing man, while as yet he is not completely
s'done to DEATH" If a cloud pass between
the sun and his place of torment, he is at once
cast loose from his post and becomes the OBJ
ject of popular reverence, as a mighty maSi-
clan in whose behalf the supernatural powers
have deiSned directly to intervene. But
clouds seldom interfere with the admidistra-
ton If Justice Oh the days chosen for public
executions by the Al Quadii authorities; at
least, that appears to be DR.. SchweinfuIth's
experience of African weather, as far as it
bears upon the judicial roasting Of maletac-
tors.

English View Of the Copper Market.

A late number of the London Mining
Journal in speaking of the copper outlook,
says there are various opinions being daily
expressed as regards the future of this market,
and some people think they are farming only
a very moderate view in anticipating Esq to
be paid for Chilli bans thisy year but whether
this opinion is based upon any reliable
knowledge of a probability of a reduced sup
ply or an increased demand, we know not,
hut it is evident that thisf figure is not above
the average Of former periods in fact, if the
time of the recent severe depression be
omitted. it is below the average value of this
description of copper, and, therefore, ii is not
UNLIKELY, providing the revival in trade is as
genuine as it is made out to be, that those
who entertain these sanguine views of the
future may find them shortly realized.
