One of the most satisfactory memorials of th > centenary of William Ellery Channing ts the single volume edition of his life issued by tbe Boston Unitarian Association.

Volume XIX of Seridner’s Monthly in tts taste- ful green binding comes tous through Wm. Ballantyne & Son. In this book-form the beauty and spirit of the illustrations and the general high quality of the make-up of Scribner's are more particularly noticable. The literature of the magazine 1s of an order to make It read, but no doubt a considerable portion of its popular- ity is due to its exceedingly attractive Lier ance, the excellence of its typography and pa- per and the satisfactory manner tn which the jetter-press is illustrated. “Odette’s Marriage” 1s the title of a novel from. the French of Albert Delpit, published by Henry Sumner & Co., Chicago, and received fro:n .

TESTIMONY OF CADET WHITTAKER. During the morning session of the inquiry at the West Point academy y Cadet Whittaker was on the stand over two hows. He first described the assault on him, reiterated his former story minutely, saying the men were genteely attired, and he could not tell whether they were citizens or disguised cadets. He said he cried loud erough for heip for occu- pants in the adjoining room to hear him ff they had been awake. The transom over the door was open, as was also the ventilator over his desk. He said the men had on slippers or were in their stocking feet and one of the largest car- ried either a candle or taper. He did not evea suspect who the men were. When asked what had been bis personal feelings within a month as to the probability as to his graduating ho re- piled, “I always felt I would get through.” He sald he never had special cause for atscourage- ment before this occurred. He was asked if he had written any gloomy letters to friends and others. He said he wrote a gloomy letter to his mother about her affairs preventing him from graduating. He told her unless he was sure she could tind some way to pay her rent he would resign. He also wrote another letter to a cer- tain party, saying if he could not raise that money for his mother he would 1. When he received a letter in reply tendering the money as a loan if he would pay it ater he fraduated, he accepted the offer and we first installment came soon after, but this was weel before the outrage occurred. An endeavor was made to connect him familiarly with the color- ed bootblack of the academy, Dut he testified that his last visit to that person’s family was over @ year ago. He testitied that he had no reasons to suppose that there were prejudices in the minds of his instructors against him and Unat he has a fatr chance of getting through as far as they are concerned, but felt that tis s cial isolation has had an effect upon him as far as the studies are concerned. When some of the pleces of the belt with which he had b2en tlea Were shown to witness it was revealed that some pleces contained eyelets, which none but officers’ belts have—and Whittaker has never been an officer. His counsel deemed this tm- portant. He also denied the ownershtp of a black neckte found in bis room.
