JUNE MAGAZINES.

In 1861, the Atlantic Monthly showed
Its spirit by putting upon Its covers and
title pages the flag Of the Union. In
place of the efilgy OF John Winthrop,
It's original emblem, while its real pa
triotlsm was evidenced by the charac-
ter of the contrbutlots which enriched
Its pages. In the number for June the
Atlantic will publish the same flag on
Its cover, and give the place OF honor to
q calm, judicial, but patriotic summary
OF our Cuban relations with Spain; the
causes Of the present war and the prob
lens likely 10 arise from 1t. The At.
lantic finds the collision to have been
inevitable between the medieval meth
DDS OF Spain and the highly civilized
ideals and strong ethical sentiment OF
the United States.

cause the Mexican dollar is legal

The real,value of these forty tive-cent
