Over Fifteen Thousand Manuscripts
Mr.. Box, the editor Of The Ladies
Homo Journal, recently gave some inter-
esting figures relative to the manuscripts
received by his magazine during 1880
Owing to its departments and peculiar
character. the journal probably receives
more manuscripts than any magazine
pu biished. Mr.. Box says that he received
at his Office a total pumber of l5,2o
manuscripts. OF these. 1850 were poems,
]. 7z6 stories, and 1t179 miscellaneous ar
ticies. OF the poems, 60 were accepted:
Of the stories. only 81, and OF the articles.
40, OF which latter, however, over 800
were solicited articles. Thus, It will be
seen thai of the entire 1900 manuscripts
only 497 were accepted; a trihe over three
per cent Deducting from this the 800
accepted articles written at the editors
solicitation, the net percentage Of UNI
solicited manuscripts accepted is brought
down TO 49,. or a little more than one per
ce Mt Statistics such as these show how
much utter tr ash is being written, and the
number OF pers ons writing who ought 70
be employing their time at something
