Ashley, the publication of a similar series, each number of which is to be complete in itself. The first monograph upon the Ontario Township, by T. M. McEvoy, is valuable since it gives an insight into the local political system of Canada. The University also publishes a Quarterly Review, not unlike those at Harvard and Columbia, in which is discussed political and economic questions relating to the Dominion...
