Courier-Journal Special
WASHINGTON, November 10.-Mr.
Blaine's personal organ here in Wash
ington is laboring hard to convioce the
Southern people that Mr.. Blaine has
ever been their most consistent friend,
and that his bloody shirt" ISLANDERS
were but playful banterings. Just
what Mr.. Blaines organ is driving at
does not appear. Perhaps it is laying
the foundation for another Greeley
movement" Mr.. Blaine, it is said.
intends to make a tour of the South
during the coming winter. He has
renewed his resignation, which was
rendered the day after President Gar
fields funeral, and will retire from the
Cabinet early in December. Mr.. Fre-
linghuysen, of New jersey will no
doubt be his successor.
1t is stated now, on very good au-
thority, that ex Senator Chaffee, Of
Colorado, is being urged by General
Grant for cabinet position, and that
he is likely to be appointed.
Filley, of Missouri, Williamson, of
Iowa, and Sargent, of California, are
being urged for Cabinet places, with
with the chances in favor of William
son.
If Lincoln remains in the Cabinet
the Attorney General will most likely
be selected from among the patriot
Stalwarts Of New England, likely in
the person of Boutwell,. This would
leave Mr.. Howe out of the ring, but
he could be well provided for with a
Foreign Mission, the Chinese, Aus
trian, German and Russian missions
being vacant.
John Russell Young will probably
60 to China.
The Lisbon and Italian missions
will be vacant as soon as the President
makes up his slate. In fact, the
President has lots of choice places for
his friends. There is scarcely doubt
but what a new man will be sent to
England, also to Brussels. In making
up his Cabinet slate, it is said, the
President is somewhat embarrassed as
to how he shall provide for the Cam
eron interest. The name of John B
Packer, devoted follower OF Grant
and the Camerons, has been suggested
as Pennsylvania's representative. Mr..
Brewster has also been mentioned.
Friends of the President say that
the new Cabinet, together with ap-
pointments to the foreign missions,
will be transmitted to the Senate early
in December, and only the names Of
"StalWarts will be found on the list.

ST. LOUIS, November 12.-RepOrtS
from Kansas City say the Santa Fe
trains are delayed by snow storm.
For nearly thirty.six hours it has
been showing hard in Western Kan
sas, Colorado and New Mexico. From
Lakin west to Pueblo there are from
six to eight inches Of snow, while
from Lapinta west there are from
eighteen to twenty inches. The cuts
are full and a strong wind is drifting
it badly. This is the heaviest snow
storm in New Mexico and Colorado
that the Santa railroad has ever en-
countered.

The people on Beal street certain
ly have claims which demand early
attention at the hands Of the city au-
thorities. OF course everything can
not be done at once, but this is too
important as the thOroughfare of an
immense local traffic to be much long
er overlooked. Beal street and the
upper end of Main should be paved as
soon as possible. After that suppose
we pave Second street and carry some
of the business there which it had for
a few years after the war.

POETRY.
Our Latest Verse Writer.

We have several rising young poets
among us. Judge Simmons writes
sweet verses, which are like flowers in
winter, always welcome. Mr.. G..
Mason Lane has also a bright
and fertile mind, and now and then
the public is favored with his ex-
pressive thoughts in ringing rhymes.
Then, too, we have Mr.. Byron T.
King, whose talents are also displayed
at intervals. There are others Of
merit among us, who rank high as
poets, though perhaps they have yet
to strike the key note which will rem
der their names famous among future
generations, All of these have a new
rival, a lustrous candidate for honors
who promises to outshine his competi-
tors in brief period. 1t is none
other than Mr.. Eugene j. Holahan, and
his poetical mind appears full oil
bright things. He has recently issued
a collection Of his poems. Within
the pages OF this collection are many
rare ideas. The author says he has
lived and labored here for twenty five
years past, exerting his best energies
to build up our hard tried city, and
scarcely a street exists but have evi.
dences Of his skill and industry He
is a carpenter, whose homestead is in-
numbered, and from his volume he
hopes to realize something by which
to aid him in paying off the burden.
The following extracts from the col
lection have the true poetic ring. A
three-stanza composition, called the
Springs of Ireland, supplies the fol-
lowing:
$50 you noble springs Of Ireland
That are seeu in every county and
Parish in the land, send them
All back to Us, so we never needed as now,
So united We may stand
TO oppose our oppTessoTs,
Who troubled us 20 long.
So hear me, you venerated springs Of Ire
land,
Whose waters bave run 50 strong,
And let the saints whose names you bear
Assist us all they can"
A morceaux of the richest and
dainliest is this from 1.-TWO School
Boys"
II strayed down to Market street,
And met a darkrhaired little chap, who
showed his white teeth
As he game up. Good day, my little friend
You look like YOU could learn fast
That can now. read and write, 1d 6gurt
And can some problems do in mensuration,
And my. father, in year or two, will send ms
To Cincinnati, to, get the best commercial
education
Then the following from "The Coco
Wife, is a morsel Of the richest ant
sweetest"
THE riyulet pursues its sparkling way,
And does not go far until il gets fall
Which makes il spread intOsa little lake,
A II sparkling With glee.
Now, this little lake denotes the fret pledge
Of married life.
The wife, by girl or boy, tries to increase her
love for you,
BY increasing the number to two.
o! woman's love, nextto God's!'
There are numerous other brilliant
things in the work Of Mr.. Hoahan,
but time and space will not permit
further notice on this occasion, except
to close with the following touching
allusion to the Irish potato
"0fall that is known,
And Of all that is grown,
There is no vegetable like the
New Irish potato.
You may say as You will,
will stick TO il still"

we learn that a delegation Of Repub-

to act in accord with Republican
