tiers OF the Late War. By Edward A. Pollard.
Author OF the Los: Cause, &C., &c. This 70 q
large octave volume; published by the National
Publishing Company, and sold only by sue
scription. The style is suited and ostenta.ious,
and we think that Mr.. Pollard greatly overes.
tim ates the importance Of his work when he
calls il "Secret History Of the Southern Con-
fsderacy," and assumes that it Is ssto live per-
mansntly and assuredly." The faults of the
book are obvious, Yet, In spite of his bonn bast,
eeotism and prejudice, or rather in consequence
Of those faults, MIR. Pollard will find many
readers who will relish his work all tue more,
because of his slashing Criticisms of JEFF Da.
Wis and other leading men Of the late Coufed
eracy, and IL must be ackno lodged that 1t eel
more about the inside history OF the rebellion
than has hitherto been published.

COoNs AND CARPET BAGGERs.-Thc
Baton Rouge Adrocatc is responsible for
the following good story Of coons and car
pet-baggcrs:
"Is that coon lively!'
"Oh yes, sir" replied the black posses
sor of as wild a specimen as ever made
tracks in the Comitc Swamp.
"Wcll, want real lively fellow; put
him on that root" pointing to alowcr knob
of very tall oak, "and let's sec If he will
stir himself"
No sooner said than done, and the coon
went up the tree like creased streak Of
lightning. :. o.,
"Y You satisfied, boss, he's lively!"
"Well, yes; but | don't want coon in
a tree top"
The freedman looked up the tree, whis-
tied, and scratched his head for an idea,
and said, "Well, boss, dat coon is like II
carpst-bagger; very promising when he's
down, but when he's up he ain't no use to
nobody"

nE Key West, on the reef of rocks
forming islands off the coast of Florida, has,
it is stated, become a mandatory of ci-
gars. The climate being similar to that of
Cuba, the cigars made at Key West are
reported to be of as high favor as Hava-
IA cigars. Tho factory established on the
island imports tobacco from Cuba, and
turns out about two hundred thousand
cigars month. As Key West belongs to
the United States, the cigars only pay the
internal revenue tax, and it is asserted can
be sold from thirty to forty per cent less
than those made in Hayaua. I.

In TIE Country. Bobbic. who has
gone to farm to spend the vacation among
his relations there, writes thus to his cousin
Jimmy:
DEAR JIMMY Ask your mother to
bring you up here right of. It's gay.
There's fishing here, and plenty of worms
to catch 'cm with You stick your hook
in them, and they wrigglc bully. Fishin's
funnicr when you don't catch the hook in
the seat of your pantaloons, so you cant
sit down and can't fish all the way home.
l did that the other day, and Mr.. Jen-
kyns, cousin Laura's beau, ask't me if
was sole or heel. Suppose he thought
he was very funny, but didn't see it.
Bime-by, l sec him cut a little piece out of
cousin Lauras hair, where her hook caught,
and kissed it, like big babey, and put it
in his pocket. So told on 'em at tea, and
everybody else laft They have cows here,
and | go to see them MIXED. | MIXED
the other night. 1t was very hard to
squeeze, and it wouldn't 60 into the pail.
Some of it went into my eye, and the rest
of it up my sleeve. l don't like turkey
cocks, neither. They ruffle themselves up
big and run at YOU They are very phcro-
cious bird, disagrceable to live with.
Chickens are nicer. We cat them. They
put them under baril at night, and Bill
and kill them in the morning. We have
bully fun wringins their necks. You'd
better come here right off, and bring shot
gun, for there are bears here, anyway we
saw fox, and some candy, becos you cant
get any here, and a pop-gun, and bows and
arrows and things. Perhaps We can shoot
a deer. l think Mrs. Jenkyns is fool.
He made believe find a doer's track the
other day, and when I looked at it, it was
nothing but the mark Of my cousin Lau-
ra's boot. l don't see what makes men so
sappy about girls. Nc won't, will wo!
I'd be ashamed. I'm goin' to ride old Sam
tomorrow. He's horse. You ride him
bare-backed, and it's very hard to stick on.
he feels so squirmy Give my love to all
the boys, and tell them Ina having a bully
time, only I hate old Jenkyns. No more
at present from Yours truly,
BoBBIE,"
