THE MAGAZINES.

The Atlantic Monthly for September
is an excellent number throughout. The
first article is Unpublished Letters of
Carlyle" by Charles Townsend Cope
land. These letters were in great part
written by Carlyle to his youngest sis
ter Mrs. Robert Hanning, who died in
Toronto, December 1897, though other
members of the family are represented
in the correspondence. They are of an
eminently domestic nature. w. ]. Nc
Gees Fifty Years of American
Science" recounts the history of what
has been done for science in America
during the past half century; and much
has been done, too, as this account
shows. WOrthington c. Ford discusses
New Opportunities for American Com
merce." These opportunities are to be
found in the orient. Elisee Reclus tells
about THE ViViSectiOn of China" The
first installment of 1.-The Autobiography
Of a Pevolutionist" is a most interest
ing article, in some respects the most
interesting in the number. 1t is by
Prince KraDotkin. "a Lawyer With a
Style is a very pleasant article on Sir
Henry Maine. There is a second INSTALL
ment of Simon Newcombs charming
"Reminiscences of an Astronomer"
William Roscoe Thayer has an appre-
ciative article on Bismarck; he gives
in brief, the story of the great mans
career THE End of the War and
After" is by the editor, summarizes
the result of the war. 1t concludes:
with larger and further-reaching po-
litical duties, too, which appeal to the
imagination rather than to the private
greed of men, our public life will once
more rise to the level of statesman

Scribner's for September is some
what of war number. Richard Hard
ing Davis tells the story of THE
Rough Riders fight at Guasimas," and
an interesting story it is. 1t is fully
illustrated. No better article on this
fight has been written than this one.
Edward Marshall. the correspondent
who made himself famous by getting
himself shot almost to pieces, writes
of THE Santiago Campaign" Nothing
could be finer than his description of
the way in which he received his
wound. 'Chug,' came the bullets and
fell into the long grass, as much like
a lump as had the other fellows whom
L had seen go down. There was no
pain, no surprise. The tremendous
shock so dulled my sensibilities that it
did not occur to me that anything ex-
traordinary had happened-that there
was the least reason to be worried"
Joseph Edgar Chamberlin tells How
the Spaniards Fought at Ell Caney."
Anna a. Rogers naval story, "Mutiny
on the Flagship" is a very interesting
one. Octave Thanet's THE Conscience
of a Business Man is pleasant story,
as all her stories are. She writes of
western life as Miss Wilkins writes of
New England life Senator Lodges
story of the revolution deals, in the
present installment, with Greene's cam
paign in the south.
