Every Girl's Annual. Edited by Alicia A. Leith. (Hatchards.)— Under
this title we have the collected issue of Every Girl's Magazine for the current year. This periodical is now continued in the new magazine, Atalanta, of which we have had occasion to speak to our readers, and for which wo repeat our good wishes. Two stories are begun and completed in this volume,—" The Fiddler of Logan," by the author of the " Atelier do Lys," and " Hurstleigh Done," by Mrs, O'Reilly. Among other papers, we may mention Miss Anna Swan. wick's "Few Words to Girls," originally given as an address at Queen's College, Harley Street. Among the poems is one by Sean Plnmptre on "The Promise of the Comforter," and another, by Miss Florence Leslie Henderson, with the title "Victoria Regina et Imperatrix," is one of the best specimens of "Jubilee" verse that we have come across. We must not forget to mention an instructive series of papers, entitled "Studies of Great English Poets," by Mrs. Hamilton King and Mr. Alfred Haggard.
