the autobiography, as extracts already
given have not been repeated. More
over, the autobiography carries the
story only as far as 1882. There remain
81 years of the most strenuous and
successful work of Spencer's career to
be accounted for. 1t was during these
years, to use his own words, that he
mounted guard over mems rights" and
made his most vehement protests
against socialism. In the letters will
be found striking references TO this
growing force, the rapid developments
of which have been attracting so much
attention.
This important volume is an essential
addition to the record of Spencer's
achievements, and to every library 1t
will take a permanent place among the
important Biographies OF great men.

The recent curious boycott of the
press in the Berlin parliament has
precedent in the mother of parliaments,
the British house of commons. a writer
in the current Harpers Weekly recalls
that the person involved was no less q
celebrity than the late Daniel O'ConneH
He condemned the inaccuracy of the
parliamentary reports, but he forgot 10
make allowance for acoustic difficulties
and the buzz of intervening conversa-
ton. He charged the reporters with
the malicious suppression of his speech
es, and the Gallery then refused TO re-
numbered In vain, even moving that tho
ringleaders be brought to the bar OF
the house. Finally, he apologized, ana
all was well. Lord Dyttleton in 1871
fell foul of the press in the same way
and the late Lord Monteagle had his
name omitted from London newspaper
reports for two years because he saio
something the reporters did not Ike.
