several centuries ago, where they

The November Eclectic has n num-
Der of excellent articles. some of
them being of much current signif-
icance. The Progress of Corpora
ton, by George Jacob Holvoake
and NJ Millera1d, tells us the latest
facts about a moss important move
ment IN labor reform, and discusses
the question with high intelligence.
Russian Characteristics" Is the first
of series of papers which promise
TO he full of interest and instruction.
The first deals IN a most punCent
way with the habit of unverasitv
and hypocrisy which is a national
dry-rot. There can lie but little
doubt that these singularly fresh pa
Pers will be in many WAYS illuminat-
ing. Those interested In the relig-
Ious life of the great Catholic orders
will find suggestive reading in a
Glimpse into Jesuit Novitiate,' by
NJ. III. DziewicKi, which seems to he
a truthful study from personal ex.
Perience. W. S. Lilly gives us q
vigorous and thoughtful paper cast
IN the form of n dialogue, entitled
''In SCI arch of a Religion" which Is
of great interest Mr. Graham
Sandberg's visit to the mysterious
City of Lhasa, the religious Mccca
of Buddhism in Central Asia, is q
fascinating record of travel. An ar
ticle supposed to have been written
by 3Ir. Gladstone, treats the rela
tions of Italy in the Tripartite Al
lance IN a way which foreshadews the
Liberal policy, when tho English
home rule party gets into power
This article has made great sensa
ton in Europe. The paper OF

tor Is very racy and entertaining
The Magazine has many short pa
pers, sketches, poems, 40, of super
ior worth, which lend variety to it
contents.
