OF late years some of our newspapers
have got into the habit Of publishing letters
from Boston devoted to literary gossip. These
letters are simply Dutrs Of the publications Of
the several book dealers In that city, and II they
are not written by persons In their pay, they at
least are the productions of writers more or

Ex-Postmaster SAM BARD, formerly of
Georgia, now of Alabama, Is shrcwder, as well
as more Intellectual, than some other advocates
of the third term. He wholly and constantly sup
ports GRANT and Grantism, through thick and
thin, In fair weather and foul, when out OF Office
as well IA when holding Office. He approves OF
every word uttered by GRANT, and of everything
done by GRANT. We have not yot received from
Montgo that issue OF his newest organ con
tanning his views OF GRANTS last message, but
we feel assured that he will not dlsappoint us
We will learn from him that GRANTS most
recent financial notions are profound; that
GRANTS Mexican programme Ia grandly patrI-
otto; that GRANTS observations about ocean
cables are the essence OF wisdom that GRANTS
Cuban policy Is true statesmanship; that
GRANTS remarks about the naturaliz alton
question are just that GRANTS views on church
taxation are elevated that GRANTS ideas on
the religious question are those OF a deep re-
ligious thinker; and that, In short, the entire
message Is masterpiece Of Presidential per-
fecton. IL IL natural that man with such an
intellect MS SAM BARD should uphold the third
term without sel1shness or fear, He sees that
the country could not get along without the
help Of the wise, powerful, and Rodly Boss

the Atlanta Postmastershp, and then offered
him another once.
