 STODDARD LECTURES.
 In answer to the requests of those who de- sired John L. Stoddard to enlarge the field of his popular entertainments he proposes some novel work for his coming series. Attracted by the thrilling character of certain portions of the history of Europe, he has written lec- lures on them which he proposes to illus trate in the vivid way which he has made his own. To secure the illustrations was not an easy task and was only accomplished by sending a representative abroad, through whose exertions for several months the de- sired object has been attained. Well known and universally popular works of fiction are also to be treated in the same way, and the result in the next course of the Stoddard lectures will be to present more varied at fractions than were ever before offered.
