received from the National Publishing
company, 40 Market street, st. Louis,
Missouri. a copy of the History of
The War between Germany and
France" by James D. McCabe, Jr.
The story told in this work is the most
interesting of the century, equaling in
effectiveness the history of the deeds
# the Great Napoleon. The author
has traced the causes of the war from
their very origin through several gen
c~rations, down to the breaking out of
hostilities in July, 1870. The history
IS printed in both English and Ger
man, sold by subscription only, and IS
in one large royal octave volume of
500 pages, embellished and illustrated
with over $50 fine engravings Of battle
scenes and incidents of the war, life
and scenes in Paris, maps, Biographical
sketches and l~ikenesses Of the leading
men Of the two nations, elc. The pub
fishers desire an agent in every county
ta solicit subscriptions fer the work.

inches long. The officers of election
had screens built i'll front OF the poll

bosses, 50 that they might have an Op-
pOrtunity to vote without intimidation,
but this interlered with the plans OF

He drew on the United States Assist
