The North American Review for June
opens with a most suggestive and prac-
teal paper from the pen of Mr.. Andrew
Csrnegie entitled "Hhe Ship of State
Adrift." with logical bluntness Mr.. Car
negie points out the retrOgresSiOn Of the
United States since 1879 IN national wealth
and commercial prosperity, and finds
our natural resources and advantages
over other nations remaining unchanged

injected silver into the currency, thereby

Current History, fourth quarter. 1895,
completing the fifth annual volume Of
this admirably helpful and convenient
work has been issued. Events move rap
idly in these times, and it is the occur
rences of the passing day which chiefly
engross attention. Not only is it a diff
cult thing to follow up all topics of inter
est in the papers from day 10 day, or
week to week, but to do so involves much
unnecessary labor; and, without a scrap
book, which soon grows unwieldy, and Is
always awkward and inconvenient, the
result of ones labor is not preserved in
available shape. The history of the recent
past is the most difficult to obtain in re-
liable form. and yet is. often that upon
which it Is most desirable to refresh
the memory, on account of It's intimate
bearing upon the developments of the i'm
mediate present. In such cases no publ
cation is better calculated than Current
History to supply just the sort Of assis-
tance needed. Garretson, Cox & Co., Buff
