THE CENTURY For 1886-87. \HE Century is an illustrated monthly fi} magazine, having a regular circulation of about two hundred thousand copies, often reaching and sometimes exceeding two hundred and twenty-five thousand. Chief among its many attractions for the coming year is a serial which has been in active preparation for sixteen years. IJtisa history of our owa country in its most critical time, as set forth in THE LIFE OF LINCOLN, By his Confidential Secretaries, J. G. Nicolay and Col, John Hay, This great work, begun with the sanction of President Lincoln, and continued under the authority of his son, the Hon. Robert ~T. Lincoln, is the only full and authoritative record of the life of Abraham Lincoln. Its authors were friends of Lincoln before his presidency; or. were most intimately associated with him as private secretaries throughout his term of office, and te them were transferred, upon Lincoin’s death, all his private papers. Here will be told the inside history of the civil war and of President Lincoln’s administration,—important details of which have hitherto remained unrevealed, that they might fisst appear in this authentic history. By reason of the publication of this work, THE WAR SERIES, Which has been followed with unflagging interest by a great audience, will occupy less space during the coming year. Gettysburg will be described by Gen. Hunt (Chief of the Union Artillery), Gen. Longstreet, Gen. E, M. Law, and others; Chickamauga, by Gen, D. H. Hill; Sherman’s Margh to the by Generals Howard and 81 Generals Q. A. Gillmore, Wm. F. Smith, John Gibbon, Horace Porter and’ John $. ‘Mosby will describe special battles and ifteidents, stories of naval engagements, prison life, etc., etc,, will appear. NOVELS AND STORIES. “The. Hundredth Man,” a novel by Frank R. Stockton, author of “The Lady, or the Tiger?” etc., begins in November. Two novelettes by George W. Cable, stories by Mary Hallock Foote, **Uncle Remus.” Julian Hawthorne, Edward Egglestone, and other prominent American authors will be prin during the year. i : SPECIAL FEATURES (With illustrations) include a series of articles on affairsin Russia and Siberia, by Geo, Kennan, author of “Tent Life in Siberia,’ who has just returned from a most. eventful visit to Siberian prisons; papers on the Food bis per with reference to its bearing Egglestone’s Religious Life in American Colonies; Men and Women of Queen Anne’s Reign, by Mrs. Oliphant; Clairvoyance, Spiritualism, Astrology, etc., by the Rev.

THE CENTURY For 1886-87. \HE Century is an illustrated monthly fi} magazine, having a regular circulation of about two hundred thousand copies, often reaching and sometimes exceeding two hundred and twenty-five thousand. Chief among its many attractions for the coming year is a serial which has been in active preparation for sixteen years. IJtisa history of our owa country in its most critical time, as set forth in THE LIFE OF LINCOLN, By his Confidential Secretaries, J. G. Nicolay and Col, John Hay, This great work, begun with the sanction of President Lincoln, and continued under the authority of his son, the Hon. Robert ~T. Lincoln, is the only full and authoritative record of the life of Abraham Lincoln. Its authors were friends of Lincoln before his presidency; or. were most intimately associated with him as private secretaries throughout his term of office, and te them were transferred, upon Lincoin’s death, all his private papers. Here will be told the inside history of the civil war and of President Lincoln’s administration,—important details of which have hitherto remained unrevealed, that they might fisst appear in this authentic history. By reason of the publication of this work, THE WAR SERIES, Which has been followed with unflagging interest by a great audience, will occupy less space during the coming year. Gettysburg will be described by Gen. Hunt (Chief of the Union Artillery), Gen. Longstreet, Gen. E, M. Law, and others; Chickamauga, by Gen, D. H.
