After goino over it with some care , and the accompany ing list containing the titles of the most notaSS books of the year , it strikes us that 1883 in America as in England is distin guished by tlw povert y of its contributions to literature .

Extract from *? itttCS Review, February 27. \ ^I) ^ < Of Mr. Stanley, Mr. Johnston, who saw much of him, speaks with the enthusiasm of youth in presence of its hero ; but this enthusiasm is quite sufficiently justified by the wonderful work which Mr. Stanley has actually accomplished. What that work is has never been so fully and satisfactorily shown as in the p ages of Mr. Johnston ' s narra tive. • • # Mr. Johnston is not only a keen and eager observer ; he is an artist, botanist, zoologist, and evidently also a bit of a geologist. Not only can he use his pencil to some purpose in bringing before us pictures of Congo life and Congo scenery, but his faculty of accurate, intelligible, and graphic description is remarkable in a man so young Few recent books of travel are so full of information.'
