Modern Palestine. By the Rev. John Dimond. (Oliphant, Anderson, and

Ferrier.)—This is a pleasant, practical, common- sense book, the tone of which contrasts, one might say, with its sub-title, "The Need of a New Crusade." Mr. Lamond was much struck, as most travellers are, by the wasteful character of Turkish rule. But when he suggests a European occupation, he should tell us who is to go there ? The Jews, he confesses, are too well off where they are to move.
