This tale represents to us certain aspects of Parisian life,
which are interesting, not as always exciting pleasurable
emotions, but as being evidently drawn from life. The story is
told in a pleasing, unaffected manner, and the main incidents are
only too probable.

Logic For Young Ladies.
Translated from the French of Victor Doublet,
Professor of Belles-Lettres.
New York: P. O'Shea. Pp. 148. 1868.
An excellent text-book; clear, simple, comprehensive. We would
suggest, however, in order that its sphere of usefulness may not
be even apparently circumscribed, that the title for the next
edition read, not "Logic for Young Ladies," but "Logic for the
Young."

class now before the public. They are published by Ivison,
