German Library.

Through the efforts of the German department an addition has been made to the German library. It has been decided to subscribe, in addition to the regular books, to a number of current periodicals, Three of them, "Die Gegenwart," "Die Kunst fur Alle," and the "Fliegende Blatter," have just arrived; two others, "Das Echo" and the "Vierteljahresschrift fur Literatur-geschichte," are expected to be here soon. Taken together these magazines will give a view of the prevalent political, literary, and artistic tendencies in modern Germany.
