THE OVERLAND
By the steamer MdriDosa from San Fraucisc o,
we received the September number of the Overland
Monthly. The contents Of the number before us
are of a nature TO warrant the praise awarded 10
the editors for the care evinced to supply mental
pabulum acceptable to all classes of readers. The
first article, relative to mine Days Travel in
Mexico" brings the reader again in contact with
an old and valued contributor, Mrs. Louise
Palmer Heaven, whose acquaintance with life in
the Hacienda or at the cattle station is pleasantly
related. The continued story of The Campaign
at Middleton" which has ably satirized the part
lsanship so noticeable in politics, comes to close.
victim to Quarantine rule gives an amusing re-
latlon OF the trials and troubles during a three
days stay Mt Marseilles. Miss Harriet Stevens ad-
vances novel. if not profound theory on the sub
Ject of The Pyramids" at which the learned pro-
tessor, Piazzl Smith cannot but feel abashed.
Young Strong of the Clarion" by Milicent Wash
burne Shinn is in different strain from "A Prac-
teal Consideration of the Mormon Question: by
William Beatty, but both writer's evince familiarity
with their subjects and the differences may be
easily noted by readers. The September number
OF the "Overland' as a whole is not an improve
ment on the previous number, but 1t is well fitted
to command favorable attention from the reading
public.
