NEW PUBLICATIONS
McClure's Magazine for March.

The March tMcClure's' is an unusually
good number Of a magazine that never
fails to supply something out of the
ordinary. There is an account of Trip
ler's invention and process for reducing
ordinary air to liquid. Somewhat the
same p%alpitant expectancy is raised by
Lieutenant Peary's account of his plans
and hopes for the new exploration for the
North Pole. No less interesting in their
several ways, and scarcely less striking,
are a series of Sketches in Egypt"
drawn by Charles Dana Gibson; some
entirely new "reminiscences of Lincoln; an
account largely his own ~narrative) of the
way in which the artist Tissot came to
take up his great work of picturing the
life of Christ, and incidents and anecdotes
Of General Woods great work in the
regeneration of Santiago, furnished by H.
HI. Lewis, who himself spent some time
at Santiago with General Wood. Captain
Mahan, in his series of papers 1.-THE War
on the Sea n its Lessons sets forth
in this number the problems presented to
the navy by the arrival of Cervera in
West Indian waters, and relates how they
were dealt with. Mr.. Kipling gives us a
further chapter from the adventures of
"Stalky & Co..

General Whites Policy.
London, November 6.--An immense
weight was lifted from the public mind
by brief official dispatch this morning
by which the continent stories of disaster
at Ladysmith were proved to be false, al
though the dispatch itself revived the anx-
iety al the moro timid in another dlrec-
ton, as it showed that General White per-
slsts in making sorties and inviting an
other Nicholson Mex disaster. From the
/ fact that General White is able to take
| tho offensive and shell the enemy seems
| to show that Ladysmith, however is not
80 closely beslaged as was supposed Not
| so much Importance, however is attached
TO the Smelling of the Boer lager, as the
! war office has no confirmation OF the story
that the Orange Free Staters' camp at

ii Is becoming apparent that the British

population has not been borne out by

troops in readiness for all possible de-
mands. The evacuation of Colenso and the
