Deva, an Indian !>y birth andeducation, who is· taking graduatework in the University, is of theopinion that Dr. Bloomfield's trans­lation of certain words ill the Vedais erroneous.

The framing of thevarious naturalization acts is described in detail, with the influence 0each faction and each notable manclearly indicated. The exciting scenesin both House and Senate in theyears before the Civil War are vividly recounted, the' history closingwith the war.Dr. Franklin has made his historyparticularly valuable by tracing thedevelopment of a great national con­ception from the interplay of varying opinion and opposing interestswithout the expression of personaopinion, which often robs a work 0this character of its value as an au­thority.Quotations are frequent. so that thereader is not compelled to make constant excursions to encyclopaediasand histories, although if he chooseshe can go to the bottom of the sub­ject by following out the numerousreferences.Typographically, the book is perfeet; the composition and pressworkon the three hundred and more pageshow the best work of the Press.Taken in all, the work is one thawill interest well-informed Americaneverywhere, while to the student 0American laws it will be well-nigindispensible.A BEAUTIl<'"UL NIAGARAPICTURE.There is nothing better to hang 0one's study wall than a fine pictuof some grand scene of nature.
