THE FORUM-September Lorettus S. Met
calf. editor. Office. 253 Fifth avenue, New
York. Price, IS year.
Thomas Hughes. who is perhaps as
well known for being the founder of the
Rugby colony in Tennessee as for his lit
erary work, has written for the Forum
an article in which he reviews Gladstone s
career, and in the manner of an afore-
time admirer and a present censor, de-
plores the great man Is position on the
Irish question. In closing he alludes to
the action OF the legislatures Of Mime
sofa and Wisconsin in memOrializing the
British parliament, and Is of the opinion
that they know not what they do, using
this language: 81 cannot but warn you
that you are deceived, and that while
you are meaning only to express ad-
miFation for and confidence in g
statesman with whose career you
are not familiar, you are IN reality doing
what in you lies TO palliate crime, and to
set aside the old commandments against
murder, covetousness and lying.
Helen Ekin Starrett, Housekeeping
in the Future, so portrays the improved
modes that are to be, that many tired
housekeeper worn with present en-
barrassments will wish for Rip Van
Wrinkle sleep, to be awakened in the
utopia of home-life, where in very truth
the cares that infect the day shall not
have stolen away, but shall actually
have no existence.
