PERIODICAL LITERATURE
All Books intended for Review should be addressed to the Editor of The Freemason ' s Chronicle , 67 Barbican , E . C . Tho New Quarterly offers one of the best programmes we have road for some time . The nnmber opens with an admirable paper by George Meredith , " On the idea of Comedy , and of the Comic Spirit . "
Wo advise our readers not simply to read , but to study it likewise . " The Tourist in Portugal" is next in order , and when we say it is from the pen of Mr . John Latouche , we think -we havo said enough to secure for it the attention it deserves . Mr . Latoucho has already
distinguished himself by a scries of articles , entitled " Travels in Portugal , " which appeared in the earlier numbers of this periodical , and we are promised that , from time to time , further papers will appear with the heading of the preient paper . We are glad of this ,
Periodical Literature
for the author ia quite equal to the task , having been evidently at muoh pains to acquaint himself with Portuguese habits and customs and with the capabilities , agricultural , industrial , and otherwise , of the country . He writes , moreover , in an easy fluent style , without the slightest care to misrepresent or exaggerate . " The Art of Lying , " by C . Elliott Browne , ia most interesting . Travellers are
great adepts in the art , the instances adduced in the course of this essay , of their marvellous ability in the art of lying are both numerous and entertaining . The amateur of music will rejoice in the article on " Musical Expression and the Composers of the Eighteenth Century , " while the man of science will derive equal pleasure from taking " A Glance at the Comets , " under the guidance of Mr . E . V .
Howard . The fiction is contributed by writers whoso names are familar to readers of the New Quarterly , Mrs . Jack ; a Story , " being from the pen of Frances Eleanor Trollope , and " The Mystic ; or , a Journey to Edinburgh , " from that of Mr , John Dangerfiold . This completes the list of contents , and we fancy our readers will admit that a better has seldom been furnished even by the New Quarterly .
Our friemds will find that Cassells Family Magazine is full of sound practical information . In addition to the nsual light enter * taining stories , Mr . Harwood's tale of " Paul Knox , Pitman , " and Miss Ada Cambridge's " My Guardian" are admirably told . The characters are generally well drawn , and most of the scenes are as interesting as they are vivid . The short stories are " Told by her
Sister , " " Onr Mistaken Generosity , " and " What he lost by it . " The practical papers tell us " How to Write a Good Letter , " about " Popu . lar Science Schools and Classes , " and "The County Schools and Cavendish College , " and " How to Build Cities of Health , " of which last our old familiar friend " A Family Doctor" is the contributor . The article on " Gardening in April" is a model of what such papers
should be . " Art Needlework , " " Some Rules of Neatness , " and our Paris correspondent ' s " Chit . Chat on Dress" will prove especially interesting to ladies , while " The Gatherer" furnishes an omnium gatherum in tho way of notes generally useful . The poetical contri . butions are , if anything , above the average , and the frontispiece by E . Wagner , " John Maynard , Pilot , " does great credit to the artist ' s
powers , both conceptive and executive . We have omitted one paper , but inadvertently . There are many who hardly know what to do with themselves when they have a holiday , and we advise all such to study the advice of A . Heward , in his paper headed " Your Bank Holiday . " Whit Monday is not very far off . Let them test his conn , sel , and we doubt not they will be all the better for it .
In Tht Countries of the World we hardly know which to praise most , the illustrations or Dr . Brown ' s narrative . At all events , both are praiseworthy , and that cannot be said of all illustrated periodi . cals . The engravings include one of " Cod Fishing on the Great Bank of Newfoundland , " a " View of Montreal from the St .
Lawrence , " " Flowers of Canada , " a " View of Halifax , Nova Scotia , " the " Canadian Primeval Forest , Birch Bark Canoe , and Indian Lodges , " " View of Westminster , British Columbia ( looking up Fraser River ) , " and " Saw-Mills in a Forest of Pines . " As may be imagined , the narrative is somewhat short , but Dr . Brown has compressed into it as mnch valuable information as his space would permit .
" A Young Wife's Story" is continued through the present number of the Leisure Hour , and there are Chapters V . and VI . of Miss I . Bird ' s exceedingly graphic account of " Australia Felix : Impres . sions of Victoria . " No . II . of " New Helps for Hospitals" contains a mass of interesting statistical information . The following , relating to St . George ' s Hospital , will probably surprise many of onr readers : —
" In the ten years ending in 1765 its subscriptions amounted to £ 26 , 832 ; in the ten years ending in 1865 they had not doubled . " And again , " In 1875 the hospital received only thirty-three more inpatients than it had held in 1865 . Nevertheless , the cost of its service , exclusive of board , had risen 119 per cent ., of its nursing , also exclusive of board , 97 per cent ., of light and gas 113 per cent .,
of milk 101 , of bread and flour 31 £ , of fish 75 , of butter and eggs 97 , grocery 35 , vegetables 66 , extra diets 33 , washing 62 , bedding and furniture 27 , coals 36 , fire insurance 110 , instruments , & e ., 34 , drugs 24 , and salaries and wages 7 per cent . " Meat , also , has only risen 7 per cent . ; but in 1865 the nurses and servants were allowed a shilling a day for meat , and this waa reckoned in the accounts of meat .
A description of " TJpsala , " a good paper on " The Royal Commission on Historical Manuscripts , " a biographical sketch of " the lato Sir William Fairbnrn , " " the Story of a Greek Merchant , " and last , but very far from being the least entertaining of all , " An Ingenious Defence , " derived from Mr .
