After exposing all the conventional crimes
and i woaknossesi , moral lies , society shams ,
an the general moral , religious , social , legal ,
political and commercial rottenness of this
country. Ono of the contributors
very pertinently Informs us that "to cata
logue evils Is very much easier than lo .sug
gest : remedies for them ; and from the very
nature of tilings , no remedial measure can bo
anything else thnn Utopian unless It employs
anems of sufilcicnt power to destroy results
by striking down causes. " But wo noea not
despair for'There is ono remedy , , and but
ono which has the power to cnel all these
mockeries , rnstoro right , justice , and doconcv
to their usurped thrones , or , in fact , to reverse -
verso at will tbo whole enginery of the uni
verse , und this is woman. " This
sounded very fair on paper , but the truth is
It Is ! asking too much of the woman of this or
nny other country. 'They nro not angels and
they have their passions and foibles thosarna
as men. Ever since the creation of Ibo world

"Tlio Wild Uoso of Gros.s-StnulToii , " by
Natnlv Von Eschstrulh , and translated by
lil liso L. Lathrop , is pre-eminently ono of
the most imaginative , picturesque nnd in
spiring novels of the year. An air of purity
an naturalness pervades this unconven
tic story , which appeals strongly to the
soul's .sympathies and affections , while the
rare beauty nnd character of the young
baroness an only child brought up nt tnr
father's estate fur from
the city exhibits a
gcmnrul manifestation of girlish innocence
and nalvo sweetness that fairly carries thu
reader with her. Although never sensa
tional , the story is rich in social pictures ,
presenting many incidents of great interest ,
especially thu description of the court ball , to
which our heroine was suddenly introduced ,
is wonderfully graphic. Altogether thu
various characters uro wil drawn and the
plot and donocraont exceptionally interesting
aud novel. Published by Worthlngton com
