WASHINGTON MINOR PoLITIcs.-A Wash
ington dispatch to the Boston Advertiser, dat
ed the 14th, has the following gossip:
The National Union Executive Committee
held stormy session this morning The pre-
vious attachment of their office furniture was
the least of their troubles, as they found them
selves $40, 900 in debt and nothing to show for
it except radical gains. There was much ex-
element and wrangling among those present,
and the meeting broke up in disgust. The
President and Mr.. Stanbery were affirmed to
be still in hearty sympathy with them, but it
was declared that the other members of the
cabinet had been somewhat unreliable since
the elections
The gentlemen of the Soldiers and Sailors
Union of this city, who have issued call for a
mass meeting of former soldiers here, on the
Both inst, are in receipt of several letters ex-
pressive of sympathy with the movement
They are also in receipt of some from notori-
GUS copperheads, denouncing it in most vio-
lent manner. The call is not likely to bring to-
gether any great number of men, unless the
signs are very much at fault.

The VISION OF SIR LAUNFAL BY James Rus-
sell Lowell. With illustrations by 8. Ev-
tinge,jr Boston: Ticknor & Fields.
LII was happy thought of these Boston pub
fishers which prompted the selection of their
series of Illustrated gift-books for the present
season. The beautiful editions which thew
have issued of Whittier's "Maud Muller" and
LongfeHow's "Evangeline," have been already
noticed, and now we have added to the LIST this
most admired of all the poems of Professor
Lowell. The volume is small ouarto the size
OF the "Evangehne," printed on fine toned pa-
per- on one side only, and with rubricated mar
gins. The Illustrations are ten in number, and
we are able to say ofthem as we cannot ALWAYS
say OF efforts of this kind in America that thew
reaiIy adorn the text of the poet. They are in
fact the best cuts of the kind which we have
ever seen executed in this country. and thew
will not suffer greatly by comparison with the
best produced elsewhere. Mr.. A. " 8. An
thony is the engraver, and he has succeeded
most happily in catching and reproducing the
spirit OF the artists design. In particular do
weadmire the third of the series, illustrating
the oft-quoted lines,
.'What is so rare as a day in June?
Then II ever come perfect days.
The second, seventh and eighth are also esnec
ally fine.
1t is book in which poet artist publsber
engraver, printer, and even binder. seem for
once to have been in harmony, and conseoueut-
ly it is in every way admirable, and an achieve
