SEPTEMBER MAGAZINES.
DonahOe's Magazine

for September presents a most inviting
table of contents. The illustrations, nearly
fifty in number, are gems and add greatly
to the attractiveness of the issue. A
valuable article on economics, entitled,
"The South May Save the Nation" is con-
tributed by Northern journalist. 1t will
undoubtedly be widely read. "The War
fare with Agnosticism," plea for more
thorough scientific training in ecclesiastical
Be ninaries, is brilliant article by
Kew. J. A. Zahm, of Notre Dame Univer-
sity. Lucille Lowell has a beautiful short
story, Between Ports" Rev. j. j.
Mccoy has an historical and biographical
article on the diocese of Springfield, with
numerous cuts of clergymen and buildings.

traits of a number of European sovereigns.

Godey's Magazine
for September is at hand and shows plainly
that the reduction in price has 10 nowise
affected the character of this always excel
lent monthly. The sixth installment of the
Seward articles is given in this issue, en-
titled "Seward at Hayti." 1t is finely il
Illustrated with number of views of this
island. "Out of the World" which was
begun in the August number is COM
peted in this issue, and despite its
title the characters conduct them
selves very much as people in the
world would do. The illustrations
which have accompanied the two INSTALL
ments of this story are among the best we
have seen in any of The magazines. Charles
ii. Adams contributes a very readable ar
ticle on "a Night Ascent of Mount Etna, I"
which is accompanied by numerous illustra-
tons. Other interesting and entertaining
features in this number are "Fsasting in
the Olden Time" Mrs. Burton Kingsland !;
"a Conscientious Coquette," John D..
Barry; "Rare Days With the Birds" Le-
ander s. Keyser, and "The Senate Vaude-
ville," by James Burton Reynolds. The
various home and fashion departments are
as usual timely and helpful. (The Cooley
Company, New York;
Vick's Magazine.

for September is one of unusual interest to
agriculturists. 1t gives an interesting des-
cription of new forage plant which has
been cultivated quite extensively in Europe
for several years in seasons of drouth. In
"White Flowers of September" Mrs. G.
T. brennan gives an interesting account of
autumn fcD ars. An instructive article on
