we have not severely criticised Mr..

occasion to speak of his being an ex-
rebel soldier, but 80 far as the gentle
mans general character and ability are

is the Presidents method of refusing to

the appointment of ex-rebel soldiers,
that we find fault with.
THE Politicians" is volume OF
poems. consisting ofpolitical satire, writ
ten by Hon, II, w. Holly, ofWinnebago
CITY. Mimi, for which Miss Linnie Cha
pel is now canvassing MankatO. The sub
iect of the poets rhymes are familiar
political characters, and those who have
watched the ups and downs of poll
tics will see much of the ridiculous and
ludicrous portrayed in these verses. His
pietorial il Illustrations are extremely sug-
gestive, and all the important political
events of the present are taken up and
handled in this same satirical manner,
and It seems needless to say that the
figured head politicians are not neglect
ed in the least. Some of the references
are more direct than would seem upon
the surface. The book is worthy hber
