And it is no small p leasure to his friends and admirers that , while the new appointment is the very best that could have been made , in the interest of the nation , it is also one of the pleasantest , and most profitable to him personally , giving him ease and security , and a noble sphere of energetic labour .
Very opportune is the publication by Mauijo and Polyblahk of an ad « mirable photographic portrait of Professor Owen in his professional robe , the right hand symbolically resting on the four vertebra of a skull , the head slightly inclined , the glorious eye , so ful l of genius , looking up at the audience whom he is addressing—altogether a portrait which his admirers will feel gratified to hang up in their studies . A brief memoir accompanies the photograph , from which we learn that Owen was born at Lancaster in 1804 , and was a " middy" till the close of the American war , when he lef t the " Tribune " . to become a surgeon . The memoir is not so full as one might desire , nor does it enumerate any of his discoveries ; but we were interested

Fraser also takes up MoNTAiiEMBERT ' s work , and severely castigates Cbokeb for his translation , omissions and interpolations . " Kate Coventry " is continued ; so also the essay on " Old Kings . " But the most striking paper of all is one on " College Life at Glasgow , " giving a vivid and minute description both of the students and the college , admirably sketched , and from personal knowledge . Alison is reviewed in a searching article , the second part of which is promised for next month . And the German Causes Celebres furnish the lovers of criminal stories with an interesting article . Altogether , Fraser is very attractive this month . The Dublin University Magazine , which after a brief London existence has once more returned to its native land , keeps up its old character , and ia grave and gay by turns . This month it reviews the works of Napoubon III ., and the unread novelist Afjba Behn . The " Age of the Earth" furnishes a pleasant geological paper ; " Early English Poetry , " a pretext for talking about CHAucuBV'of whom one always hears with ^ pleasure . Vf of
