JANUARY CANADIAN MAGAZINE Tic Canadian Magazine starts the New Year with a new serial story. the scenes of which are laid in the war of 1312.

The 013th features of the. January number are also worthy of consideration, G.M.L. Biown. a Canadian traveller. writes interestingly of Curacao, one of the most important of the smaller West Indian Islands. The editor reviews the new life of Sir John Beverley Robinson. and this contribution is ac- companied by an unpublished picture of the late Chief Justice. and an un- published peacil-sketch of Government House, Petal-borough, built in 18215. Dr. Drunimond contributes one of his famous habitant poems. Cy \Var- man‘s satire “Dog Eat Dog" will inter- est the people of the \Vest who have recently suffered from alumber com» bine.
