n,, q, 10 the mark Of true poetry Some of these
,,iaoas contain good poetcal IDEAS, but the verses
are los loosely and hastily put together, and in
so,ae eases measure is altogether disregarded-a
fatal defect. The war and its incidents constitute
the theme Of most of these productions, but no in
vacations to our people are needed, and they had
much rather read Of deeds done than be moved by
the most stirring lyric. We have to emit every
day articles that we would like TO publish, hut TOR
which ne have not room. When the war ts over,
and We resume our mammoth double-sheet dahy
issue We shall be glad To publish such Of the poet-
cal contributions Of our friends possess merit
