MAGAZINE NOTICES.

No publication ever sprung so quickly
into popular favor and attained success
as the Republican Magazine. This is not
to be wondered at when one considers
the quality of subjects and the character
of their writers which, are appearing
from month to month. The following
will give some idea of the contents for
November: The frontispiece is most
excellent portrait of Hon. Edwin II.
Einstein, Republican candidate for mayor
of New York city. The first article is
entitled Why the Soldier Vote Should be
for Harrison, by Gen. G. III. T. Coils
and Gen. Floyd Clarson. The House
Committees of the FIT second Congress
are discussed by Gen. A. w. Bishop,
and Hon. John S. Wise follows with a
few words about The Tariff, Reciprocity
and the Force Bill Next comes a most
valuable contribution to current litera-
ture under the caption of No Wildcat
Money Wanted, by Henry Clewg. Poll
tics in the Home has most earnest de-
fender in Mrs. Thos. w. Chace. The
David B. Hill Idea is exposed by w. T..
Galbraith. Clark Waggoner has most
interesting and comprehensive article on
The Repeal of the State Bank Tax, and
no one who wishes to be thoroughly con-
versant upon this now most important
subject should fail to read this article.
Prof W. S. Scarborough, who is perhaps
the leading colored citizen of the country
has an article upon Republicanism, and
and his views on the Federal Election
Law. Next follows a symposium on
The Democratic Party and State Banks,
hxrH ON Fills III Pnhorfc g "
White, Judge Lucien Birdseye, Prof.
Roger Fl. Lyon and Hon. E. H. Benn.
Scribners Magazine for November
contains the second of its group of pre-
iminary articles ON The Worlds Fair,
this one being an account of Chicagos
Part in the Worlds Fair, by Franklin
MacVeagh, one of the prominent citi-
zens of Chicago, who writes about the
enterprise without any bias, frankly stat
ing that he ''has no connection, with the
Worlds Fair management. Another
notable article in this issue is the Con-
versations and Opinions of Victor Hugo,
which Octave Uzanne, the famous French
bibliophile and literary authority has
compiled from unpublished papers
his exile. The seventh article in the Sc
ries Great Streets of the World, is a
description of The Grand Canal of Ven
ice by Henry James, whose wonderful
prose style is exactly adapted to por-
traying this picturesque street. The
illustrations are by Rezzos, skillful
Italian artist. The fiction of the num-
Der includes the fourth of Octave Tha-
nets Stories of aWestern Town, entitled
Mother Emeritus pictures by Frost);
the conclusion of Bliss Perry's amusing
story of Salem Kittredge, Theologue,
and a love story by Thomas Nelson Page,
entitled Miss Dangerlie's Roses.
The November number of CasselPs
Family Magazine is capital number.
That very attractive serial, Barbara Mel
vale, opens the number and is followed
by an illustrated paper on The Chapel of
the Pyx, a mysterious chamber beneath
Westminster Abbey. Two Popular
Styles of Art eedlework is paper that
will interest the nimble fingered mem
bers of the family. The Courtship of
Fireman Deane is a story that men as
well as women will read, and mothers
will read Our Belongings: the Girls.
Mrs. Cuthell's serial Lady Lorrimer's
Scheme grows in interest as that wicked
ladys hypnotic power over the unhappy
Effie Marshall increases. An Artists
Haunt describes with pen and pencil the
beautiful little unspoiled village of
BOSNIAN on the English coast. Then we
have Another Indian Tale by Arth
Milton which, by the way, refers to the
East Indians and not to our own red
men. How We Came Down from the
Stills, is a story of Alpine travel Lovers
of natural history will be interested in
