The continents of Africa and Asia have held the attention and directed the diplomacy of Europe during the year 1890, and Stanley's explorations and the relations of Great Britain, Germany, France, and Portugal to the Dark Continent are clearly epitomized, forming a most interesting and important chapter in modern history. The great revolutions in South America have special articles devoted to them, while the discoveries made m other parts of North and South America as well as in the isles of the sea, all teem with lessons to the reader that will not find their way into the ordi nary histories or books of reference for many years.
