Col. Underwood, surveyor of the port of
Boston, has held that Office for some years
and has given perfect satisfaction to every
body who has had business with it. He was
a soldier and is still lame from wound re-
ceived in the service The Democrats want
to get rid of him and put in one Col
Walker, whose strong point appears to be
that he has done effective work for his party
in political campaigns. Col. Underwood has
been so little active in politics that the
charge of Offensive partisanship" could
not be brought against him, and some other
excuse had to be trumped up. So a special
report has been.made which alleges that by
reason of his wound he has not been able to
give his Office as much attention as it de-
serves. Col. Underwood, however is not
inclined to rest silent under this imputation.
HeshaWs pretty conclusively that the charge
Is "ithout Ioonaation, manufactured out
of whole cloth simply for- purpose of
putting him out and Col. Walker in. Were
hisremoyal put upon the true ground that
the Office he holds is wanted by the Demo-
Gratis neither Col. Underwood nor his friends
would have a word to say, but they naturally
and properly object to the attempt that is
making to smirch the record of faithful
officer in order that the administration nay
be able to keep up show of interest in the
cause of civil service reform
The Bangor Wing has resurrected lettG
written by Mr.. Mark Harden, who has re.
Gently been appointed special agent during
the cor,,t-~se. MI Harden, who~is better
known probably as mark, was thesaon
spirators' official messenger, but he took i.
upon himself sometimes to furnish informa-
tion on his own account. The extract the
Wing prints is from letter he wrote to Gov.
Garcelon informing him of the condition of
things at the capital and is as follows:
"Things. air looking squarley here Jest now.
Capt black has the guns in the State House all
rite, but air considuraberly disturbed about the
gard wether they air as true as steel"
1t is to be said for Mark that his ignor-
ance of the English language was not much
denser than that of some of the men whom
ne served. Councillor Fogg, who is now
editing greenback paper in Michigan,
is immortalized in the report of the commit
tee Of the legislature by the following letter,
which he wrote in answer to request to see
the returns:
Messrs. Wing, Savage and Bisbee that the Coun-
Gil have decided not to submit any inspection
the returns for Senators no defects in the re-
turns cannotbe changed.
Mr.. Harden's reports to the Treasury de-
partment, if he ever makes any, will be in
teresting and valuable mementees of the era
of Reform.

The Knave of Hearts. By Kop,-. Grant
Boston: Ticknor & Company; Port1aiiu r:
Loring, Short & Harmon. Mrs. Grants book
is very amusing and entertaining well con-
ceived, original and quite unique. To even
suggest the plot would be to spoil the inter
est OF the novel for ourEreaders, and so we
will refrain; merely advising all who like a
fresh, bright and story, which is well worth
reading to try The Knave of Hearts.

My Religion. By Count Leo Tolstoi. New
York: T. Y. Crowell & Co; Portland: Bal
ley & Noyes. This religious work is trans
lation from the French of Count Leo Tolstoi,
and made sensation in Europe at the time
of its publication. 1t has since passed
through several editions in France and Ger
many. This author became famous through
an historical novel, entitled War and Peace,
which has been long regarded as one of the
most remarkable productions of Russian lit
erature, and deals with the Napoleonic inva-
sion of 1872 and the events that Immediately
followed the retreat from Moscow. In fact
Count Tolstoi is acknowledged by competent
critics to be man of extraordinary genius,
and his writings rank with the masterpieces
of the age. Much interest will be felt in the
present volume, in which the writer makes
an eloquent plea for direct application of
the literal teachings of Jesus as expressed in
Matthew V, vi, and vii, to the regulation of
human life He condemns the present con-
ditions of society, and foretells universal fra
ternity, the abolition Of war and the death
penalty, the indissolubility of marriage, and
a life of simplicity under natural conditions
and in contrast to the crime and wickedness
now so rampant. The intention of the book
is to ''show the need of a religious faith that
shall awaken more fraternal feeling, and
arouse the various Christian sects to reali-
cation of their present failure to cope with
the dominant evils of the day."

The Yaqui War.

HERMosILLo, Sonora. Feb. 23, 1885.
 EDITOR CITIZEN: Since my last few lines to you, there Is a general excite ment, and with good reasons, it appears. about the laqui Indians rising. They have killed four persons in the vicinity of Guayma., anl seem to have taken such a determined stand that it has called ont the government troops, and caused the authorities here to conscript many citizens for the time being. All are cautioned to keep a sharp lookout and be well armed for any emergency.
 The truth is, the whole matter appears very dark, and eventually causes LIS to think of the many drawbacks of Sonora. First the Apaches, then fever, then the stamp act; fever again. and now the YLquis. Poor Sonorai but she has nevertheless a bright future before her. with all her natural resources--her rich mines, the vim that Is seen Tn many of her citIzeu-, are too plain proofs that very sOOn she must, she will come ont

General Topete Las a good name as | fighting General. as has also General Garcia, and no doubt but the poor. hard working Naqnis will be made to feel the actual strength and might of Mexico before they are through with IL
 The Chief, Caieme, Is the whole and sole cause Of the present trouble. He does not hold himself accountable tc the government for anything; for ID stance: when Pesquiera was Governor he ordered this Chief to meet hIm in Guaymas for consultation etc. The Chief sent him word that 1t was the same distance for the Governor to come to the IaQ-Ii river Rs 1t was for hIm tthr Chief tO go to Guaymss His course has been defiant and impudent for q great while and. to use a common phrase, he is spelling for fight, and now he will get 1t l guess and good whipping be sites. The Mexicans have Teen very lenient. indeed. with these people, be- cause they are good workers, good ser wants, and, as a general thing. quiet and peaceful citizens.
