It isa 16 pp., double column quarto, on good paper, and is clearly and correctly pone familiar with press work, and discrim- Mating euough to know the difierence be- en good and bad work. But when an mary philosopher of nature gets inside 6 the writing, he has to pause and con- sides what his verdict ought to be. Itisa publication that seems to ask a reviewer for more than he is willing to confirm. It is, perhaps, too boastful ; it assumes a greater weight to its opinions than the scales of ordinary minds can register; and notwith- standing its liberal distribution of many out thorns when you pick them up. space is too limited and customary period- ical reviewing too general to analytically explain the non-sequiturs of the Jearned highly, nor would we too highly condema the self-assertion, or *‘ handling without gloves,” so prominent throughout. One dollar a year will buy the monthly from Philbrook & Dean, 261 Broadway, New York. The Century Magazine for the first month of the New Year carries on its pages its old evidences of valuable reading. It has Giotto for its subject, from among the old Italian masters, with engravings from criginals. The article called ‘‘orses of the Piains” is spirited and wellillustrated. The Ro- mance of Dollaud begun in the November number of last year, has its third por- tion this month. pecially appropriate to the present position that the Green Isle occupies. Iconoclasm seems now to be after the stony hearts of the landlords. : 9°‘ Round about Galilee ” is better ilus- trated than written, and yet overflowing with historic interest. Less sen‘imen: and more of discovered facts, would have better satisfied the general reader. There is a third paper on ‘‘Pictures of the Far West,” with illustrations by Mary Hallock Foote. Kemble has made a good thing of Jessops **Old Men from the Old Country.” ‘The four papers on topics of the times, the several open letters, aud the page of bric-a-brac, are ali calculated to instruct, so there is no room for disappointment any- where in this January number of The Century illustrated monthly magazine, issued from Union Square, New York City. Exerbitant Charges. Tae Halifax Herald, to hand yesterday morning, contains the following letter, which speaks for itself:— Srr,—In yorr columns this morning notice a complaint regarding broke: charges on goods shipped per 5. 5. Stanley from P. E. Island to Pictou, which churges are certainly extortionate. On the 29:h Dec. we received two cars oats from P. E. Island with bill of charges......$121.25 Through rate on those 2 cars should be 96.00} vat CRE iia a boise esd sesvsie $ 25.25 Allowance to summer steamer on through rate would be $24; therefore the Stanley must have been allowed $24 pius $25.25, or $49.25. As yet we have been unable to obtain particu- lars of this exorbitant charge, but see no reason why the Government cannot carry freight at as low a rate as they allow the Steam Navigation Company, and should their through rates not be as Jow when they contro! the whole carrying stock? Had we shipped by schr. from P, E. Island, allowing the In- tercolonial and P. E. 1. local rates, there would have been a saving of some $20 on those | two cars alone. Under present circumstances | it is unsafe to do business with P. bh. Island | after Dec. Ist, it being better to have any | heavy goods in transit stored on P. KE. Island | until spring than shipped by the Stanley at those rates. A. Gonw & Co. Halifax, Jan. 12. amet od «Me pale phe — A Crusade of Revenge. A Zanzibar despatch of the llth says: Ad- vices have been received from theintcrior that in October last Mwanga, king of Uganda, plotted to destroy his entire body guard ; his intention being to abandon them on an island in lake Nyanza, where they would starve to death. The guard, who had been forewarned of the king’s intention, refused to enter the canoes which were to convey them to the} island, but returned to the capital and made an attack on Mwanga’s palace. ‘The king fied to escape the fury of the guards, and his} brother, Kiwewa was enthroned in his stead. | Kiwewa appointed Christians to the principal offices. This euraged the Arabs, who mur- dered many of the Christian officials and re- placed them with Mahommedans. The Arabs burned the English and French mii-sion sta- tions and killed many converts to Unristian- ity. The mission boat Eleanor, in which some persons who had been _couverted by French missionaries were fleeing, was struck by a hippoptamus and sunk. Five converts were drowned. Many letters for Emin Bey and Stanley were destroyed by the burning of the missionary stations. The missio aries have reached Usambveoin safety. The Msolala depot is safe.
