VIM. Ballantyne Sons.
Several editions Of Mr.. Huison's former
work on the Law Of Psychic Phenomena
have been required to meet the demands
upon the presses for this valuable consrlbu-
ton to psychical literature. The object Of
the present work, Mr.. Hudson states, is to
outline a method Of scientific inquiry con-
corning the powers, attributes and destiny
Of the soul and specifically to point out and
specify a number Of well ascertained facts
of psychic science to demonstrate future
life for mankind. In demonstrating the fact
of future life, Mr.. Hudson analyses the
mental organization Of man and urges that
from the nature of his physical, intellectual
and psychical structure and organism, any
other conclusion than that he is destined to
a future existence Is logically and scientifl-
cally Cntenable.

Books about experiences at sea derive
much of their value from the closeness with
which the actual experiences of the author
are followed, and in the present case there
comes an unusually interesting volume from
the pen of one who was in position to OBJ
serve widely and in various lands, and to
profit by his opportunities. Mr.. Paynter
was cabin boy on the U. s. s. Ossipee when,
in 1884 that vessel was sent on an extended
cruise. He speaks Of having obtained his
position from noting q paragraph in The
Evening Star of a day in January, 1854,
which stated that Capt. McGlensey desired
a cabin boy for this cruise. Mr.. Paynter
comes from one Of the oldest and most re-
spected colored families in the District The
author acquired his early training in the
colored public schools of Washington, and
after leaving the High School. entered the
college department of Lincoln University,
graduating in 1883. He Is at present en-
ployed in the internal revenue bureau of
