The Canadian Magazine fer March is throughout entertaining, and il contaimts several striking articles equal iu interest to any in current magazine iterature. lu faci it may be said that the magazine, which begîtas ils second years with the curm ent number, has attained a position anongst the very best published, a tact which receives ready recogniltion by for- eîgn joarnals. Amongst tht contributions in the current number is a remarkabie article by Mr. Arhur Harvey on "~A Phy- sical Catastrophe te Arnerica." Tht writer ingenuously brings the- caîadlysmic theory to bis aid in picturing a change b.- ginning in184, wtmch culmînates lu the raising of the Atlantic seaboard, lte des- truction of Chicaga and the permanent submergence cf the Mississippi, Red and Nelson vahîtys in ocean waters. The in- dustrial, social and political changes con- sequent on tht cataclysm are net less in- terestingiy described than tue physicat convulsions preceding thetu.
