for the reason that SO fewp persons seem to know
that the Librarian Is not an officer who has TO be
confirmed by the Senate, or that he Is not an officer
Of the Senate and House of Representatives. The
fact lis that Congress has nothing whatever to do
with the tenure Of office In the Library Of Congress
The President may remove the Librarian at his
discretion, and appoint his successor without the
advice and consent OF the Senate. Another gross
error. into which the public is generally led con.
corning the business of THO library is that the uti

Oh. may the vile assassin float
ON story sea, In open boat,
In Iceland's cold without a coat
No rudder, compass, sail, or oar,
A million miles away from shore,
Where many briuy monsters roar.
May sharks devour him, stem aud stern.
A whale then gulp him down In turn,
And the devil get the whole concern.
Send him straight, with dlrest kneil,
To deepest pit In darkest hell,
To gnash his teeth and roar aud yell.
In burning birthstone may he be.
While little devils dance In glee,
And lock the door and lose the key.
Good devil, see you chain him well,
In torture worse than tongue can tell,
In hottest fire Of blazing hell;
And mid hls roar and frantic cries
Oh. make eternal ashes rise,
And blow forever In his eyes.
Accused be the villain knave,
ON no account this oulteau save,
The hell-deserving poltroon. slave.
