also help to the speedy removal of the chief, fronting evil of our civilization, before the hearts that are aching shall break, and the feet that are tempted shall fall; till the saloon's dread shadow shall nevermore darken the love-light of home, nor dim the brightness of childhood's morning!"

'THE MARVELOUS COUNTRY, or Three Years in Arizona and New Mexico. Containing an authentic history of the wonderful country and its Ancient Civilization, with a full description of its immense mineral wealth, its remarkable urban Antiquities and magnificent mountain scenery, together with a full and Complete History of the Apache tribe of Indians; the whole interspersed with strange events and startling adventures." By Samuel Woodworth Cozzens. Published by Lee & Shepard, Boston.

As the tittle suggests, Mr. Cozzens witnessed some wonderful things and passed through some strange experiences while a visitor to the new lands of the far southwest. History, geography, Indian warfare, Indian traits, personal adventure, hunting, and romantic episodes are woven together with considerable skill, and in all there is a vein of humor that brightens the narration and keeps the reader in good humor. An endless series of illustrations throw light upon the narrative.

"A SHORT HISTORY OF ANGLO-SAXON FREEThe Polity of the English-speaking Race, outlined in its inception, development, diffusion, and present condition." By James K. Hosmer, Professor in Washington University, author of "A Life of Samuel Adams," "A Life of Young Sir Henry Vane," etc. Published by Charles Scribner's Sons, New York. ($2).

An ambitious purpose has been quite successfully achieved in this volume, which must be of value to all who speak the Eng

lish tongue. The effort aimed at by the author was to compass within the space of one volume a sketch of constitutional history for a period of nearly two thousand years—from the time of the Teutons of Cæsar and Tacitus to the British Empire and the United States of 1890. It is not, he declares, the polity of any single people that is outlined, but that of the English-speaking race, "that body today perhaps one hundred aud twenty millions strong, scattered in several nationalities actual or incipient, which upon all the continents and all the great islands of the world, stands now so in the foreground of attention. It is a polity one and the same in essence in England, in the United States, in Australia, in Canada; one and the same in its essence, moreover, as viewed in the institutions of to-day, and in those of the North Germans of the time of Christ."

Surely, this is a wide and diversified field, and one, too, in which the restless, onward movement of events is never ended-a fact illustrated by the declaration of the author, that while the book was in preparation, England has restored to the Shires their ancient local self-government; since it was ready for the printer, six commonwealths have been added to the American Union; while it awaited publication, an Anglo-Saxon protectorate was extending itself more and more widely over Africa. But, in the face of the difficulties that could but attend so great a task, and after an industrious research and the study of years, Professor Hosmer has succeeded in the completion of a study sure to attract attention and evoke thought. Others have explored the same fields, and hardly any one can write of English or American history without entering them, but few have produced so lucid and comprehensive a history of that moving force that has made the Anglo-Saxon influence what it is, and has had so deep an impress upon the destiny of the world.
