The Monthly.

Following the announcement of the establishment of the Honors in Literature, the Monthly for May publishes an interesting article by Professor W. F. Harris, which gives in detail the object that the new honors have in view, and the kind of work they are purposed to encourage. Professor Harris points out that the Honors are not for the smatterer in knowledge, nor for the specialist, but for the man with diversity of interest.

The fiction in this number is rather better than usual, and there are two essays of worth. The editorial treats efficiently of an interesting problem in our social life. There are three competent book reviews.
