TULLIDGE'S QUARTERLY MAGAZINE.
The July number of the QuarterZa
made its appearance on Saturday,
and will disappoint with excellences
those who had even expected much.
1t contains 200 pages, being larger
than any Of the American maya
zines, and equal to the English
quarterlies. while in appearance
and general makeup, it is inferior
to none Of them. This issue, as its
predecessors have done, contains
several excellent steel engraved por-
traits of Well-known citizens, the
value OF the plates themselves being
worth more than the cost Of the
volume, for it is a volume rather
than magazine. The lead
ing paper in the number is On
Congress and George @. Cannon"
which is followed by ogden and
It's Representative Men" 1.-The
Founders Of Plain City," and Go
rinRe and It's Founders all being
historical sketches and containing
many biographies. "The Cities of
OONhO GA44A 4AC4l OUlUSIS is
a similar paper, making the number
specially interesting and valuable to
a large section of country, and TO
many persons individually. "The
Mines Of Utah" is the subject of a
paper devoted chiefly to the Park.
The wagon industry of Salt Lake is
treated of, as well as Utah coal and
iron. Among the poems are "Sab- |
bath Bells" by j. II. Martineau,
THE Bachelors Complaint" by |
VIM. Gill Mills, and @Life's Con-

will bring back with him large collections
of orchids and medicinal plants for our
public gardens. Among the any speci.
mems only Obtainable on the Honduras

medicine for the cure of dysentery. The
cultivation of this plant would be most
lrmunerativc. it appears that up to the

obtained only from wild plants and from the

several times, and because we have
called you by your " names you
seem to feel bad about it. You
whine because we do not make more
"claims." We have offered you 500
if our claims were true, and have
offered SIoo, ifyour statements were
not false and you do not accept the
offers. So what is the use of max

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.
from OUT OWL Corfespondent |
New YORK. July 4. 1882.

New YORK, July 8, 1882.
The main thing we are all thinking
of is how we shall spend our Fourth.
Coming on Tuesday, some smart fell
low who certainly deserees a leather
medal, thought it would be a good
idea to stretch the patriotism so as to
include Monday, and it is astonishing
how quickly the idea spread. Retail
stores, as we'll as wholesale, have stuck
up notices all ove that they will be
closed from Saturday to Wednesday.
1t is a capital notion, and our rural
friends will be delighted, for New
York will simply empty itself when it
gets such a glorious chance.
Our veteran Superintendent of
Police, Walling, a jovial old soul who
can sing a rafting good song, cor
panied by one of his official superiors,
Commissioner Matthews, sailed the
other day for Europe. The boys gave
him such a send-off as Gotham has
not known since the days of Tweed,
when money came lightly and was
lightly spent. 1t was a pure ebullition
of good will that chartered the tug and
crowded it with friends. Thirty-two
out of the thirty-four police captains
managed somehow to find time to &C.
company the party and there were lots
of newspaper men.
They saw him out far beyond the
limits of the harbor and then made a
decent on Coney Island, where prob
ably some may be yet. 1t was a most
successful spree.
Deacon Richardson, of the Hanson
Place Baptist Church, Atlantic Rail-
road. and any number of other good
things with money in them has been
tried and convicted of disorderly
walk and immoral conduct"f for putting
up a job on the brethren and laying a
new car track on Sunday to get around
an injunction they meant to have
served on him on Monday. The old
fellow urged in his defense that the
work was one of necessity. No ones
OK Oh ass had fallen in a pit, but pits
were dug for his railroad and he
thought he was justified in taking
measures to keep out of it. If he rem
dered better service for the money he
makes out of the public, there would
be possibly some sympathy for him.
AS it is, every n wishes he had been
sat upon ten times as severely.
Long yarns about the commence
ments fill great sections of the papers
now to the exclusion of news OF
general interest. In fact the silly
season with nothing in the papers,
seems to be upon us. As.the schools
close and the youngsters are turned
loose for their vacations, there1l be a
fitting to forest and beach of all who
can afford it, while for those who
can't and for country visitors who will
make no mistake if they believe the
solid fact, that New York is the finest
watering place on the planet, will find
plenty of amusement till school keeps
again. RADIx.
