The Century Magazine.

The November Century begins
the thirty-seventh volume and
nineteen years of the magazine;
and the number is made notable
by the beginning of several new
series, or magazine, ''featurs." The
most important of these is the
first installment of the Century
Gallery of Old Masters; engraved
by L. Cole, and described by W. J
Stillman and by Mr.. Cole himself.
The engravings in this series were
made in the presence of the origi-
nal pictures themselves; they are
actual copies, and unique in the
history of art; for such careful
copies lave never before been
made ON wood.
Another series begun in Nov
vember is Mr.. Cables Strange
True Stories of Louisiana" ;-af-
ter preface by Mr.. Cable him
self comes the extraordinary story
of "The Young Aunt with White
FL air, from an old French manu-
script. THE Romance of Dollard,
by Mrs. Catherwood, illustrated
by Mr.. Sandman, has two prefac-
es, one by Mr.. Parkman the histo-
] ian, and one by the author, and
has broken new ground-Canada
in its most romantic epoch. The
first of Mrs. Foote's "Pictules of
the Far Vest a full page engrav-
ing is given in the same number.
The American Magazine for
November is an especially inter-
esting number. The variety of lit
erature contained in it is sure to
please, while the illustrations are
of a higher grade of excellence
than usual. There is one very
striking article by the gifted poet,
author and critic. George Edgar
Montgomery, entitled AN Ameri-
can Theatre This article is
profusely illustrated and supple
mented by the frontlspiece, which
is a portrait of tie very successful
manager, Mr.. A. NJ. Palmer. The
article reviews briefly the efforts
of these American managers who
have had any artistic purpose IN
their management, and argue that
Mr.. Palmer is the natural success
sor of the late Lester Wallack, as
the leading American Theatrical
Manager. This, however, is gen.
eral and predatory, as the larger
part of the article is devoted to a
description of the theaters Mr..
Palmer has managed with some
thing about theiplans he has for
the future with his new ventures
and his school for actors. now be-
ing conducted by Mr. Dion Bou-
cicault. This is notable article,
and is sure to be very largely read
and criticised, as Mr.. Montgomery
says what he thinks and feels
about the past, present and future
of the American theatre without
nincing matters.
