fate of this fair and remarkable woman, who assuredly was more sinned against than is a well- sinning, Mr Henderson, who known authority on Scottish history, and who, by the way, edited, in conjunction with the late W. E. Henley, the Centenary Burns, describes once more the subtle and attractivo personality of the unhappy Queen, and sets bør storm-tossed life against the dramatic background of her times.. Special stress in laid on Mary Queen of Scots relations with her contemporaries, and the conspiracy of circumstances which. in the end determined her unhappy and cruel fate, The book is, in short, a vindication, and, apart from its historiál interest, it contains reproductions of overy authentic portrait of Mary Stuart, besides views of places associated with her life..

Many people, politica apart, will be glad to learn that Lord Goschen has been in.. duced to expound his economic creed. The book, which is to be published immediately by Mr Edward Arnold, is entitled Essays and Addresses on Economic Questions." The earliest of these doliverances was made as far back as.1865, and the Intest in 1893, But present aspects of the fiscal controversy are not ignored, for Lord Goschen has added introductory notes and additions written in the present year. No doubt the book will throw light on that far-reaching. scheme for the reduction of the National Debt which Lord Goschon advocated in 1888, when he had ceased to be the candid friend of the Liberal party, and had nocept ed office in Lord Salisbury's second Admini. stration as Chanceller of the Exchequer.
