Mr. Gladstone's apceck on tfio war crtdit is a production ol fjreat credit to himself and to his country. The reception with which it met?showed that England is ready to fight-ilshe must fight, and that where the honpr of tlie country is at stake party lines, as strongly marked there as here, practically disappear. It is doubtful whether a similar proposition in our own llouso of Representatives "would have been received in so broad a spirit? whether tho occasion would not have been seized for bitter denunciation. Mr. Gladstone's^peecti was obviously intended to have a placo in history. It was without patsion, manly, dignified, logical, a . background of secretivenets bristling with suggestions; to which the Russian ambassador could not haveobjectcd if ho were present; Mr. Gladstone recognized tlie war spirit of the country and addressed himself to it It had been thought that tho special credit asked for was not large enough, lie reminded his audience?which embraced "all the world and Russia"?that it could not be said how much of the Soudan credit (Knglfeh tot the American "appropriation*') would be used /or other purposes (Afghanistan) and that it must not bo forgotten thot this is partieulaVly an Indian affair J and that India herself would be doing something in the way of supplying the sinews of war. To givo point to this part of his speech, and to convey to Russia a pointed hint which' sho would L>e certain to undgaland, Mr. Gladstone added, "it is the largest, rote of credit which has been asked for within the last seventy years, except that in tho timo of tho Crimean war." This reference to the discomfiture of tho adversary thirty years ago was a very fine stroke, both with regard to public sentimontat lnuio and its effect ut St. Petersburg. The report of the speech shows that whenever Mr. Gladstone scorned to bo g)ttiug well over on the jrar side the Ilmso rang with cheers aud "Hear I Hear!" the latter a-form of approval wlilch wo have not adopted in this coun try. Kussia,cannot misunderstand this and the tuore. popular, demonstrations. Thoy jnean that she must give a satisfactory explanation of the Penjdeh affair and put herself under bonds for good behavior, or fight , It is not easy to seo what explanation antf what assurapce could be satisfactory unless Kussia m%kes an humble apology, gives up her designs on Herat and moves hack her advance line?none of which things are within reasonable expectation. As for keeping promises, llumia nuver does that, ller latest promise with regard to the Afghan frontier was hardly two weeks old before she broke it. The war cloud is "still there." Mr. Gladstone's speech recognizes this, and being interpreted means that whenit breaks Knglaud will be at the front, expecting "every man to do his duty." Ne* ltook*. Mr. lleury F. Keemm lrns written, and Messrs. Ciififi&ll <k Cotfpan, -New York, have published a remarkable book under the titlo of "Trajan." Nobody who takes up the book will bo willing to lay it down before be has finished it. For there is a good plot; ?n infinitude of incidents? enough for half a down ordinary books: a charming atmoflpbero; very beautiful and very humou sentiment; a gallery of such word pictures as alone ought to BUiiice to make au author's fame. What will strike the most casual reader?if * there can be a casual reader of" Trajan"? is tho writer's marvelous vocabulary. So allluent a command of languago is not met with in one*writer in n thousand. Mr. Keeuan has not waited until he turned author to display this talent. It has been a distinguishing feature of his brilliant newspaper work, llis literary style is pure ami noble, and the moraltone ol his book Ls on the same high level. Tho scene of "Trajan" is hud in Paris. Its action turns on the fill of the Second Empire and t the bloody days of the Commune. The reader kno?vs that some power has translated him to Paris? ho knows that he is Beeiug Paris and breathing Paris. He is in Uio American society of the gay capital, but it is still tho society of the American iu Paris. Such descriptions*of the fall of thoBonapartes, aud that bloody orgie known as the reign of the Commune, have not before been written. For historic iidelity, as far ns they deal with . history, and for boldness oi tieatment, they are not likely to be excelled. Suburban Paris was never made so enchanting. There is satire, but it is never brutal. Indeed a kindly veiu runs through the whole book. Tho characters are natural ?i .1 ?i ?i. UUU Uicy UU Iiniuilli uiiii&d, uivugu Miv; often rise to the height of the heroic. There are muny of tliein,aml as they come on the stage >? quick succession ?o wontier how the author is going to handle them all. When wo close the book we are convinced that lie could have handlod twice us many. And we wonder wlietherone mau can produce two such books. Mr. Kcunan is a man of great resource, ile works with unusual rapidity, and somfe of his best newspaper articles liave been produced in the hurry of a night's work on a morning journal. He may have informed with great rapidity tho mechanical work ol "Trajan,""but tho 1-vncu.iciiscbk has rt-ason to believe tlial the book is the result of the observation and thought' of years. It is obviously the work of the mature man of tho world, it could not have boon written by a very young "person or a recluse. "Trajan" iB meeting with a large sale, and if it were not at the cost of employing a muchabused word we might say that It is creating a "aonsation."

Tho May Century gives np a great deal of space to war articles, of whiuli thorft are eight?a disposition of space warranted by tho growing popularity ol tho series, which has proved the happiest thought in our magazine literature.

Gen. lkdeau writes on Gen. Grant, of whom there is an'excellent portrait. Mr. S ted man's paper on-Whittier is a highly interesting topic treated by a master hand. The Political .Muijaiine, published at Urbana, Illinois, is a new candi^gjor public favor. It starts well, with features that should make it a welcomo visitor. Thero is a biographpy of Senator1 Georgo F. Hour, which is not all' that could have been done with bo good a theme in the same space. Hon. Emory A.

Good Housekeeping is what the' housekeeper of good taste and ambition lias been looking for. It begins with the outside of the house and goes very thoroughly through it. The building, furnishing and all thatis implied in the keeping of a house will bo found to bo most entertainingly treated. Some of tho best specialists in the country are among thecontributors. For example, M r. K. 0. Gardner, whose work in this Hue is well known, begins an instructive illustrated series of papers on "Model Homes for Model Housekeeping," .with plans for building. Jiliss Poloa writes of cookery, with which art she is thoroughly conversant. Of course there is something on drees and fashion in general. The magazine is handsomely printed.

One of Boston's moat eminent physicians was called in consultation last-January; when his collector presented recently the bill for that service he made the naive inquiry, "Is tho man dead ?" Statistics have been published designed to show tho increase in tho number of deaths in Massachusetts from pneumonia In 1857 there were 1,073 deaths reported, and in 1883 there were a,015. But in estimating the significance oi these figures two things must be kept in mind?first, the great Increase in population, and second tho.improvement during tliat period in the methods of collecting such statistics. An adjustable mirror has been patented by an Inhabitant of Charles town, Mats. This invention covers the use of a specially contrived frame for holding the mirror, and in which the mirror can bo readily adjusted and held ill any desired position, for use of either toll and short people, or for children sitting on the floor, sojhat mirrors ol medium alio maybe made more useful than largo mirrors as ordinarily hung.

A correspondent ?f tho New York Journal of Comment says the idea that fortunes are to be made in Florida without awcat of tho brow Is tho fiction of laud speculators.
