game birds in various parts of the country have procured him additional repute as an authority in matters pertaining to the pursuits of hunting and fishing. In two new volumes published by the Orange Judd Company, he continues his contributions to this branch of literature. In the first, entitled "Florida and Game Water Birds," he presents a sketch of a fishing-trip to Florida, made by him in the winter of 1881-82. Mr. Roosevelt accomplished the journey in his private yacht, having for his companions the famous pisciculturist, Mr. Seth Green, "a sporting medical man," and two or three ladies. No circumstance which could enhance the luxurious enjoyment of the excursionists was wanting. There was even an unlimited period of time at their command, and thus months were expended in a leisurely passage to the fishing grounds of the southern peninsula, and in as leisurely an improvement of the sources of entertainment existing there. In the same volume with the notes of this pleasure trip, Mr. Roosevelt encloses chapters on the game water birds of the Atlantic coast and the lakes of the United States, with a description of the sporting in these regions and remarks on various forms of guns in use. In the second volume he speaks of "The Game Fish of the Northern States and British Provinces," dwelling particularly upon the salmon and trout fishing of Canada and New Brunswick. Since the establishment of the fishery commission of the state of New York, Mr. Roosevelt has been a member of the board, and it is easy to believe that with his eager interest in the subject and his superior advantages for information, he has allowed no intelligence to escape him with regard to American fish or the latest and best improvements in fishing-tackle. His book lacks the convenience of a table of contents, but there are chapters treating of the propagation of fish, the tying of flies and knots, and of insects, in addition to those coming more directly under the title of the work.

THE little volume, by an anonymous writer, which is entitled" With Rod and Line in Colorado Waters" (Chain, Hardy & Company: Denver), has amusing characteristics which those given to the sports of the fisherman will especially enjoy. It is a dashing, facetious relation of the author's experiences in angling and camping in the wilds and beside the waters of one of the most picturesque portions of the West. The chapters are brief and bright, each detailing the comical, depressing, unexpected, inevitable, and altogether inspiriting events which marked some particular excursion in search of the pastime to be had with the rod and line. The humorous bits in

the shape of wood-cuts placed at the head and foot of the several sections, and putting a cap on their climax, are not unworthy of mention.

ONE instinctively regards a volume of extracts from a favorite author with distrust. What is taken must necessarily feebly represent what is left. Then there is often an unavoidable injustice done the writer by separating passages, however characteristic, from their context; while the reader is wronged by imperfect and misleading impressions received from isolated and incomplete statements and arguments. It is like an offering of crumbs instead of the full loaf. But this

feeling is placated in looking over the collection of excerpts from the writings of Charles Darwin, which Mr. Nathan Sheppard has culled for the purpose of exhibiting in a concise form the hypotheses that may be correctly designated by the term "Darwinism." The passages have been discreetly chosen; they are most interesting in themselves, and, leading from one to another by continuity of subject, compose a fair outline of the researches and the conclusions of the naturalist whose title to greatness is based on virtues of character as well as upon forces of intellect. Persons who have not been drawn toward the works of Darwin will be tempted to seek them by a perusal of these detached paragraphs, which indicate the amazing variety and extent of his patient and accurate observations, the modesty of his assumptions, the simplicity of his expressions, and the unvarying gentleness and candor of his disposition. He had the art to unfold a narrative fascinating by its stores of curious information, and by the prepossessing grace of its unaffected style and unstrained conclusions. His influence upon the world has been that of a moral teacher no less than that of an original and ingenious scientific investigator. (Appleton.)

ROMANES'S "Mental Evolution in Animals" (Appleton) contains a very satisfactory statement of

what is now known and of much that is surmised in regard to the development of instinct and reason in the animals below man. The Mental Evolution of Man is only incidentally touched, being reserved for discussion in a third volume of the series, the first of which, on "Animal Intelligence," has been already noticed in these columns. In general, the views advanced in this volume agree very closely with those of Mr. Darwin; or, to speak more exactly, they are for the most part elaborations of lines of thought already laid out by him. Numerous hitherto unpublished memoranda from the manuscripts of Darwin are included in the work, as also a very interesting chapter on Instinct, which was written for the Origin of Species," but which was omitted from that work for the sake of condensation. The book is well written and interesting, and we have noticed no cases of reliance on untrustworthy evidence as to matters of fact, such as mar the treatise on "Animal Intelligence."

The

-THE "Epitome of Ancient, Mediæval, and Modern History," by Carl Ploetz, which has passed through many editions and met with warm approval in Germany, is now accessible to English-speaking people in a translation made by William H. Tillingast, and published in a compact volume by Houghton, Mifflin & Co. The chief aim in the preparation of the work was to provide a handbook for the class-room; yet it will be found of equal value for private use. original plan comprised a compact review of the history of ancient, medieval, and modern nations, so presented that the leading facts in their development at any era could be surveyed easily and comprehensively. In the treatment of the different countries and peoples, a brief summary of their geography, religion, and civilization, is followed by a chronological record of the prominent events evolved in their history, the successive dates being printed conspicuously on the left side of each

page and the important names set in italics and black type. This convenient arrangement facilitates reference, while it brings within a swift glance the whole body of facts relating to each nation. The translator has enlarged the primary scope of the work by adding the histories of China, Japan, Parthia, and Persia under the Sassanidæ, and by amplifying the annals of England, America, France, Scandinavia, and other nations of later and earlier times. An abundance of genealogical tables and a copious index enhance the usefulness of a work which is the product of extended scholarship and enormous labor in compilation.

THE fourth volume of the revised edition of Bancroft's History (Appleton) has been somewhat longer in making its appearance then its predecessors have been; there seems no good reason, however, to doubt the completion of the work within the present year. It bears the marks of the same careful and conscientious labor as the others, and, like them, has been largely re-written and re-arranged. The period covered by this volume extends from May 1774 to July 1776, being Epoch III. of "The American Revolution"- America takes up arms for self-defence and arrives at Independence." It consists of twenty-eight chapters. This volume, it will be noted, is the most detailed of the entire work, embracing the events of only a little over a year; and with good reason, for the causes and motives of a great event like the American Revolution are to be studied not so much in the event itself, as in the less conspicuous occurences and discussions which led to it.

THE little hand-book of "History Topics for High Schools and Colleges," by Professor W. F. Allen, of the University of Wisconsin, merits the attention of teachers and students. It was prepared for the author's use in the class-room and printed for his own convenience, but he has acted upon a wise impulse in putting it in the way to general circulation. Merely to read the lists of topics in their order is a good review of the history of past time, while to follow the methods prescribed for studying them must be profitable in a high degree. The author's remarks in the prefatory pages disclose ripe thoughts and experience. They are such as emanate from one who brings to his vocation of instructor a natural aptitude strengthened by learning and an ingenious use of its acquirements. (Ginn, Heath, & Co.)

MR. STEVENSON's romance of "Treasure Island" (Roberts Brothers) is a tissue of highly improbable incidents which do not for a moment throw the spell of reality around the reader, and yet constrain him to acknowledge the skill with which they are worked up. The author shows considerable strength of invention in unfolding the plot and delineating the characters, which are life-like and well-sustained. But beyond this exhibition of his power in the line of fiction, there is no appreciable good accomplished by the book. It is a picture of the roughest phases of sea-life. The effort to recover a pirate's buried treasure from a desolate island in the mid-ocean, by a couple of gentlemen whose followers comprise cutthroats, mutineers, and a sprinkling of honest

THAT old acquaintance, Colburn's "Intellectual Arithmetic," is to be honored by a new and enlarged edition, containing a portrait of Colburn and a sketch of his life. Houghton, Mifflin & Co. are the publishers.

CASSELL & COMPANY announce for early issue "The United States Art Directory and Year Book (Second Year), being a Chronicle of Events in the Art World, and a Guide for all interested in the Progress of Art in America;" compiled by Mr. S. R. Koehler.

GEORGE ELIOT's fragmentary essays, with some pages from her note-book, which before her death she had arranged for publication in a volume, have just been issued by Harper & Brothers. This will be the only authentic edition of her miscellanies; and it is stated by Mr. Lewes that the unauthorized collections previously issued contain some work which is not by her.

THE "Magazine of American History" seems to be steadily improving under the management of Mrs. Lamb. The May number has several fine portraits and other illustrations, several valuable historical papers, and interesting miscellaneous matter. The magazine is worthy the support of all who would encourage the growing interest in the study of American history.

AMONG the interesting announcements of new books by J. R. Osgood & Co. are a volume of sketches by Mr. Howells; Henry Irving's Impressions of America; a new novel ("Tinkling Cymbals "), and a new volume of verse, by Edgar Fawcett; Mingo, and Other Sketches," by Joel Chandler Harris; "An Average Man," by Robert Grant; and an account of "The Battle of Stone's River," by A. F. Stevenson.

THE "Humboldt Library," published by J. Fitzgerald, New York, presents monthly, in a well executed octavo pamphlet, the reprint of some, generally English, standard scientific work. The twelve numbers for a year constitute, when bound, a library of as many valuable works, which is furnished at about the cost of any one of them in its ordinary edition. The work is now in its fifth annual volume, and is well deserving of success.

Of the six gold medals for scientific work offered by the Commissioners of the Fishery Exposition held last year in London, one has been awarded to Holland, one to Norway, one to England, and three to the United States; Professors Agassiz, Goode, and Jordan being the American recipients. Prof. Jordan

who fills a chair at the Indiana State University, and is one of the youngest as well as most promising of our working naturalists—had contributions

A NEW edition of Benner's "Prophecies of Ups and Downs in Prices," giving the results for the period between 1876 and 1884, with "prophecies to 1990, is just issued by Robert Clarke & Co., Cincinnati. The same publishers announce also: "Sorghum, its Culture and Manufacture," by Peter Collier; "Mounds of the Mississippi Valley Historically Considered," by Lucien Carr; "The Reptiles and Batrachians of North America," by Saml. Garman; "Camping and Cruising in Florida," by Dr. James A. Henshall, author of "The Book of the Black Bass;" and "Principles and Practice of American Common School Education," by James Currie, A.M.,

of Edinburgh.

"THE PLATONIST" may certainly be reckoned as a curiosity of periodical literature. It is a monthly publication now in its second year, and is devoted "chiefly to the dissemination of the Platonic Philosophy in all its phases." The Neo-Platonism of our country would seem to be a somewhat scattered product its organ being published at Orange, N. J., and edited at Osceola, Mo., while the American Akádêmê, its formal association, holds its meetings at Jacksonville, Illinois. It is probable that Plato himself would be somewhat surprised could he be present in the spirit at one of the meetings of this new Akádêmê, at which we are told that papers are read which "stir up enquiry like flaming substance from a distant star upon a dark path;" it is possible, even, that he might be aghast at some of the interpretations which are put upon him by these his latest followers, but it is none the less certain that he has peculiarly laid himself open to such treatment. Probably there is no other philosophical writer, except Aristotle, about whom so voluminous a literature of misinterpretation has been gathered. Attention must also be called to the persistent misquotation, upon the title-page of "The Platonist," of Milton's well-known passage concerning the charms of divine philosophy. Perhaps, however, in view of Plato's proverbial aversion to poetry, it is not to be expected that such consideration should be shown a mere poet.

THE first supplement to Poole's "Index to Periodical Literature," covering the years 1882 and 1883, is completed, and will be put to press as soon as three hundred copies are subscribed for. It will make a royal octavo volume of about 400 pages. The authors and contributors expect no pay for their work; and hence the cost will be only the charges of the printers (Messrs. John Wilson & Son, of the University Press, Cambridge, Mass.), which will be assessed pro rata upon the copies subscribed for. With an edition of 300 copies the cost of each will be about $6.50; with an edition of 500 copies it will be about $4.00; and with a larger edition proportionally less. As the demand in England will be the same as in this country, it is expected that the price will not exceed $3.00, and may fall below that sum. The intention of the editors- - Dr. W. F. Poole of the Chicago Public Library, and Mr. W. I. Fletcher of the Amherst College Library -is to issue hereafter annual supplements, which will be re-arranged and condensed every five years in one volume as a permanent supplement to the main

The immediate and universal success of this index in question, "What book in your library is most used?” practical work is an interesting literary fact. To the every librarian will reply, "Poole's Index." The same testimony comes from the owners of many private libraries. It is a singular fact in the history of library profession, that the authors and contributors book-making, and evidence of esprit de corps in the expect no pay for their work. The American and British Library Associations both give the enterprise their coöperative support, and make the compilation of such an invaluable aid to students and writers possible. As no more copies of the first supplement publication, subscribers' names should be sent to Dr. will be printed than are subscribed for in advance of Poole as soon as possible. When the book is issued it will be too late.
