The JANUARY CENTURY. The
frontispiece of the January Century is
Coles engraving of the head of Christ,
by Giotto. Besides this engraving,
in The Century series of Old Italian
Masters, there are four other large
engravings by Mr.. Cole, from Giotto,
with articles by Mr.. Stillman and MIR.
Cole himself.
Another purely art feature of this
number is the article on the young
American sculptor, DIN Warner, illus
trated by reproductions of his work,
most of them from drawings of the
originals by Messrs. Kenyon Cox and
Wyatt Eaton. Mrs. Foot's third pie
ture of the Far West is full-page
drawing called 1.-THE Sheritf's Posse"
The long announced articles by Mr..
Charles DeKay, on Ireland, begin in
this number, the first being entitled
" Pagan Ireland" with illustrations
of the medieval castle at Clonmlc-
nois, the cross at Monasterbolce, the
round tower Ardmore, ETC., etc.
Mr.. Wilson, the photographer, con-
tinues his series on the Holy Land in
connection with the international
Sunday. school Lessons. The present
installment, profusely illustrated, is
entitled Round Abont Galilee."
The Lincoln Life in this number
Pope's Virginia Campaign, the battle
of Antietam, and the announcement
of Emancipation.
The stories OF the number are the
continuation of Mrs. Catherwood' IS
" Romance of DolIard," and of Mr..
Cables "Strange True Stories of
Louisiana :" also "A Perverted Fran
chise," by A. G.. Gordan, illustrated
by Kemble, and "An Old Man from
the Old Country" also illustrated by
Kenble. The latter story is by Mr..
George II. Jessop, author Of 1.-THE
Rise and Fall of the Irish Aigle" in
the December Century.
Mr.. KEENAN,, in an article entitled
"The life of Administrative Exiles,"
presents some of the most astounding
facts gathered by him in Siberia. The
article is without illustrations. The
writer says in introducing it that to
present large number of closely re-
lated facts concerning this branch of
the subject in the chronological order
in which they were obtained would
be to scatter them through half a
dozen articles, and thus deprive them
of much of their cumulative force and
significance. He therefore groups
these facts in single paper, which
necessitates a brief interruption of the
narrative and an omission, for sin
gle number, of the Illustrations. This,
he remarks, enables him to deal broad
~ and comprehensively with one of
the most interesting and important
phases of the Exile System.
