HERALD NOTES.
A POET DISCOVERED.

The great Christian soldier, and Freed
mans Bureau manager, General Howard
was seized with poetic frenzy upon the @Otl
of August, and sent the following despatcl
tn.tfe Adjutant General of the United State
army. His picture Of Chief JosephIs mo
bility, cunning, and alacrity is worthy o
either Milton or the Ledger obituary man
we do not say which
Iwrite with feelings sadly mixed;
Ny men are full of pluck,
Bat since started after Joe
I've had the DEVILS luck
I've done my very level best
His travelling to retard,
ct every time that hit him,
He hit me twice as hard.
He won't stay still IN any spot,
He cannot be beguled. ,FE.
And has q way of bohbing rouud
That drives me nearly Wild,
Ifhe against fox were matched
FOR cunning tricks and low,
Against a wessel's sleeplesness,
Think I'd b t on Joe.
Therefore feel no great desire
This charge have to keep,
And if you can my place supply,
I'll let the job out cheap.
