The May number of Cassoll's Famlij Magazine is remarkable or the numboi and variety of its stories ; long and short , grave and gay , all are hero offering theli various attractions to the reader.

The reviewer who , month after month , inds the Quiver on his desk , is struck by ho unfailing high tone of the magazine , tfovor is the quality of the work eacri- iced , and this is the more remarkable when wo consider the great variety that s eproad before the loader. In the May lumber this quality is particularly no- icenblo. The earnestness of all the alters for the Quiver is also a striking oaturo. In the paper on "Sunday School Addresses" wo find much that is worthy of putting into practice. In 'Temper Good and Bad , " thoRov. R. I. Lovoll tays aomo wlso words that hould make nil persons , whether their ompor bo good or bad , stop and reflect. A Plea for Public Play Grounds" will ind an answer in every heart that throbs under city amoko. Dr. John Stpughton lontlnucs his "Suoday Thoughts in Other Jands. " Dean Plumptro writes on "Llv- ng to Ourselves , " and the Rev. W. M. Tohnston gives his second installment of 'The World and Christ. " The vonora- > lo Archdeacon Gore contributes the bird of his scholarly papers on "Tho 3rowth of the New Tostamont. " 'Restful Talks in the Rush of Life" con- Inuo to fulfill their pnrpcso. The Rev. V. M. Taylor concludes his able papers n "Reserve Forca in Character. " The ctlon of this number la as bright aa usual , 'ho eorlals Increase in interest whllo the low stories open up fresh attractions. II- nstratlpns abound , whllo music and poet- y are judiciously sprinkled through the > ages of this admirable magazlno. Babyhood , the only periodical In the world devoted wholly to the care of young hildren , has succeeded in securing the ervlces of eminent specialists In every ubjeot with which it deals. Tha April number contains articles on "Tho Care of Children's Hair , " "Isolation In Oontaj- oua Diseases , " "True Croup. " Under ha title of "Domestic Disinfection , " 3eorgo M. Steinberg , major and surgeon , J. S , A. , publishes some of the results of ho recent government investigation into ho proportlos of the best disinfectants. Among the miscellaneous articles Is an especially entertaining and practical one , > y an anonymous lady writer , entitled Nurse's Day Out. " Marlon Harland's writing is as attractive as usual , and the ' ' Wardrobe " " Prob- 'Baby's , "Nursery - em's , " and ether departments contain ; ho accustomed variety of useful hints. The Magazine of Art for May is a gala number. It Is adorned with five full > ago Illustrations , besides smaller ones in almost every page. The frontispiece s a study of a head , a fac-similo in color , rom the original by Sir Thomas Law- ence , In the British museum. The other page pictures are "The Potitiok , " rom the original by Josselin de Jong , 'The Deben above Woodbrldge , " by janco Speed , "Tho Head of Orpheus , " rom the painting by Gustavo Moreau , in ; ho Luxembourg gallery , and "David" > y the same artist. "East Suffolk Mem ories , " a charming descriptive sketch by tfr. Sidney Oolvln , Illustrated by Mr. Janco Speed , opens the number and is ollowed by a just and appreciative bio graphical sketch of that much discussed French painter Gustavo Moreau , by Claude Phillips. "Pictures of Fence , " s a bright account of the swordsman's art. "The Art of Perlclean Athens la discussed by L. R. Farnoll , while Richard Heath continues ils amusing studios of the "Fashions in Waists. " If. Mabel Robinson in her series of papers on "Tho Romance of Arf'tells ' us of Vasarl , the plagiarist of Vllchaol Angelo , while A. Mary F. Rob- nson cuts "Profiles from the Frenoh Renaissance. " Mr. Austin Dobson has a paper on "Peg Woffington. " A careful review of Mr. Homerton's landscape is _ lvon , Illustrated by aomo of the most striking plates in the book. The con cluded illustrated article describes an American country house. The poetry of ; ho number , "April Once More , " is fur nished by Edmund Gotso and illustrated yy Mary L. Gow. Cassoll & Company , Limited , Now York. It Is a curious fact that ono of the moat Famous poems in our language appeared In a magazlno that seldom touches poetty it all , and the same periodical , after an interval of sixty-six years , now brings ont another poem very similar in theme. Bryant's "Tnanatopeis" was first printed In the North American Review for Sept ember , 1817. The May number of the Review , just ont , has a poem by Robert Buchanan on "The Now Bndda. " The critics found fault with Mr. Bryam'e poem on the ground that it was unChristian - Christian ; It remains to be seen what they will say of Mr. Buchanan's. The question , "Has Christianity Benefited Women ? " is ably discussed in this num ber by Mrs. Elizabeth Oady Stanton and Bishop J , L. Spaldlng. President J , L , Plckard writes on "Why Crime is In creasing , " and David Dudley Field on "Industrial Co-operation,1' while Prof. Andrew F , Weat , of Princeton , contri butes an article of great clearness and strength on "What Is Acadomlo Free dom ? ' James Payn , the English novel ist , discusses "Success In Fiction , " and T , F. Thlitleton Dyer "Superstition in Ea- gllsh Life , " The new department oi Comments keeps well up to the standard with which It started. The Mayiiumber of "Harper's prom > ises to bo very strong in Its stories. Mlai Woolson's story of "East Angola" grovri in the strength of Ita atndy of character ; as well as in interest aa it proceeds ; one "At the Rod Glove , " the anonymoui story , illustrated from sketches made al Berne , the iceno of the story , by Mr , Relnhart , draws to Ita close. The ahorl stories include "Constance Royal , " i strongly dramatic story , told In threi pages , by Jeanlo Spring Peet ; a humor ous loye-story set forth In "Paaugei from the Diary of a Hong-Kong Mer chant , " by F. J. Stlmion ( "J. S. o Dale" ) ; and a charming story by Lucy C Lillle , with a full-page illustration by C D. Weldon. The huge and constantly increasing edl tlons of the "Century" the next num. bor begins with 250,000 ooples has compelled polled the publishers to delay the May magazine ( with which begins the thirtieth volume ) till May 1st. The practice thus Inaugurated will bo continnec n the future , and the "Cen tury bo Issued in the month > f its date a change to bo commended. The May number will be a strong ono. The war papers will doul with the Pon- nsnlar campaign , McClellan and Joe Johnston being tbo loading contributors , while General Gnstavus W. Smith , who ook temporary command after Johnston was wounded , writes of the stoond day's ightn Seven Pines , and General John Imbodon has an anoodotloal paper on ho battle of Manasjas. The illustra- lens will bo profuse , including a ( front- apiece ) portrait of McClollan. full-page ilcturos of Leo , Johnston and Grant , and lortraits of French princes , llolntrol- man , Sumner , Magruder , D. H. Hill and others. Enaing Harlow will have nn irticlo on Grooly at Capo Sabine , and tlr. E. V. Smalloy begin hla papcra on ho Now Orleans exposition , The April number of the 'United Service Magazlno" con tains several excellent papers among them the late commander S. ) ana Groono'a letter , written just alter bo Monltor-Morrimao fight , the oonclns- on of Colonel Thomas Jordon's clover ovlow of the operations at Shlloh , and an admirable article br Lieutenant L 0. lobertson on Millitary Blttsand Bit- ng. ng.Tho The impending contest between Eng- and and America for the yacht prize cnown as the America's cup , which came , o this country In 1854 , is exciting great nterest not only among yachtsmen , but among tbo general public. The most and exhaustive discussion of ho development of yachting slnco the ace of 1854 yet published Is from the pen of Mr. John Hyslop , of Now York , nnd rill appear in Outing for May. Mr. lyslop traces the development of yacht ) uilding and sailing to the present time , ; lving accurate and careful detail' , Ulna- rated with lines and aail plana of famous achta. The article Is also illustrated 1 1th handsome engravings of the America , bo Rpeoluto , and the Genosta. It would astonish many a Londoner to 10 told that ho can go "Through London y Canal. " Nevertheless such Is the fact ; nd that canal is the scene of the "little -ravels" - of a writer in the May Harper's , rho describes in detail how ho journeyed rom beyond Paddlngton , the northwest f London , through the moat populous larts of the great city , to the cast end nd the lower Thames , on ono of the nany freight boata that ply on the "rag- ng canal. " It la almost needless to say bat the writer , Dr. E. B. Martin , is an American , for it Is our own countrymen who have been the most curious explor- rs of the English metropolis , and most f the books about Dickons' places have men written by them. An English art- at , Mr. W. L. Wyllie , accompanied him , ind his sketches are of novel interest. "he article is timely , because the canal s likely , In the course of a year or so , to > o transformed Into the roadway of a clr- ult railway which is to iako its place. Tbo Fight of Silver. Salt Lake Tribune. The silver men must got ready for a eng battle next winter. The gold forces , ro marshalling their strength and overy- hlng will bo brought to bear to mpke it com like a necessary move to destroy ilver as money. The secretary of the reasnry in his last monthly report show d his virus on the subject. Ho refused o put in the $300,000,000 or $400,000- 00 of fractional silver money In the reaaury as a patt of the money on hand lecauso It Is not a legal tender. But ho mt all the greenbacks In the treasury in , a "cash on band. " Now there is behind ho paper a guarantee of some twenty ier cent in gold , and that is all. There a nothing else except the faith of the Jnlted States. la not that faith aa much iledged to redeem all the silver on hand aa it la all the paper ? The fractional oin la of course debased. Two half dol- ara have not as much silver in them aa a liver dollar by 2G 7-10 grains , but the eason this is BO is worth considering. Were 1853 they were full weight , but hey were so much moro valuable than ; old that the old world sent here its gold and purchased them and carried them away , and their weight bad to be reduced n order to save them to this country. "f they have fallen in apparent value ilnoo , it has been duo to hostile leglela- ion not to an over supply ; for , since hen , from the mines of the earth there las boon two dollars and a half of gold akon to every dollar in silver. The in- ontlon is to still further disgrace tbo white metal until it can bo driven from ts old place as money , and the motive which prompts it is precisely the motive which makes the manufacturer anxious , o Import contract laborers from Europe or servile laborers from China , which Is , bat lie may obtain moro profits on his varea. The raid on silver comes from , ho money-loaning class. If they can , urn half the real money of the world In- , o merchandise , the half remaining will pay half as much again as the same imount will now , and $3 collected in in. .erest will buy as much as $4.50 will 3ny now. Silver and labor and broad are beaten down now fifteen per cent , when reckoned from a gold standpoint. The intention Is to beat them down ihitty-fivo per cent moro. French Influence at Panama.
