 | "Doty Dontcare: A Story of the Gar den of the Antilles" by Mary Earring ton Foster. With an introduction by ! Dr. Elliott Coues. The scene of the story is laid in the little island of San ta Cruz. The writer, who was a ma tive of the island, and long a resident there, is thoroughly qualified to de- scribe its scenery, it's varied popula- tion, its racial and social distinctions and has, moreover, at her command the remarkable dialects in which the negroes express themselves. All the characters, scenes, and incidents art drawn from real life, and the denoue ment is historically true to the negro insurrection of 1878.

 books--that of entire novelty. Este
