POPULAR SCIENCE MONTHLY. 



changes have been made to adapt it to the 

 time of its issue from the press. The trans- 

 lator claims that Lissagaray's work is the only 

 reliable and accurate history that has yet 

 been written of the Commune. He has not 

 attempted, she says, to hide the errors of his 

 party, or to gloss over the fatal weakness of 

 the revolution. Of course, a very different 



view of the movement is given from that 

 presented in the French accounts, as well as 

 that generally held by English and Ameri- 

 cans ; but the communists have a right to 

 be represented and heard, and it is well that 

 they have so competent a spokesman. (Pub-
