THE CENTURY For SEPTEMBER.
49," The Century" for September has
many salient points of interest. The
subject which will probably attract
the widest interest is the discussion of
the Treatment of Prisoners at Camp
Norton indianapolis, during the
war, discussion begun by DIR. John
A. Wyeth's article in April "Centu-
ry."
The Gold hunting Series has an adj
dition in paper by Col. A. G. Fer
ris describing an adventurous trip of
party of gold-hunters to California in
lSi9 through Mexico.
The frontlspiece of the number is a
portrait of Mr.. Thomas Bailey Aid
rich. whose poems are the subject of
critical review by Frank Dempster
Sherman, which has the advantage of
liberal quotations from the poet.
Mr.. Sherman's conclusion is that
Mr.. Aldrich is &c one of the rarest Tyr
jc poets of the nineteenth century"
