THE AGRICULTURAL REVIEW, and jour-

nicely printed and readable monthly.

stock farm, Belle Meade, accompanied by a
finished portrait of the well. turfman.
THE last issue of that very dull weekly
magazine, The Continent, is at hand. A close
scrutiny of its contents fails to reveal any
thing calculated in any way to interest any
body except the illustrations, which are
fairly good. There is continued story by
Rhsda Braughton, which, OF course, the
APPEAL does not pretend to pass criticism

Howard Payne, the author of Home, Sweet
Home" whose remains are now on the way
10 this country. Among the interesting

the old North American Revie,s, the American
Lap Rertep will retain its name; but
lis identity and its LEGAL habitation has been
lost. The editors of the ST. Louis publica-
ton will be L. Eaton and s. w. Thompson.
1t is well known that the Western cities
compete very successfully with Boston in the
publishing of legal literature. Yet the
departure OF the Lau Rcriev NAV we'll cause
pang, though St. Louis seems to gain what
Boston loses.
