One of the most marked of the literary ten
denotes of the day is the revival Of interest in
publications relating to the Civil War-con-
spieuously illustrated in The Century's series
of war articles, which have attracted univer-
sal attention and given the magazine an enor-
nous increase of circulation. The war is now
sufficiently remote not only for an immense
gain in perspective to the historical student,
but we are far enough from its passions and
anxieties to invest everything connected with
the great struggle with new interest for the
participants, and make them glad to live over
again the emotions and experiences of those
heroic days. In response to an often expressed
public demand, Messrs. Jansen, McClurg & Co.
Chicago, have undertaken the publication of a
volume of the war poems of Mrs. Kate Brown
lee Sherwood Of Ohio,a writer known through.
out the Union for the strength and ferVor of
her patriotic lyrics. Mrs. Sherwood was the
wife of an officer in the Union army, and her.
self shared in the vicisstudes of field and
camp and hospital, gaining an experience
which, with her impressive poetic tempera-
ment, enables her martial lays to strike a re-
sponsiVe chord in every soldiers breast Her
poems depicting the uprising of the North, the
armlng for the field, the march, the fight the
charge, the repulse, the loss of comrades, the
grief, heroism, and fnal victory-the shifting
lights and shadows Of soldier-life-are at once
simple, strong and peculiarly effective. 1t is
doubtful II any single writer has so adequately
preserved ~ verse the spirit and memories OF
the war. Mrs. Sherwood is lady Of wide per-
sonal acquaintance and influence, being the
President OF the Woman's Relief Corps, an Or
ganlzation connected with the Grand Army of
the Republic, having branches throughout the
Northern States. Her volume bears the title
"Camp-Fire, ,Memorial-Day. and Other Poems
the latter caption covering number of sweet
ana tender lyrics, which give pleasant relief
TO the stirring measures of the poems Of the
war. Price, SLIGO; full gilt, S1.50.
This book will be offered for sale during the
Encampment in Portland, by Frank w. Smith
OF Andersonville fame, and will no doubt meet
with the ready sale it merits.

The Solid South.
Will IL be Broken by Patronagef Bitter
ness already EngeHdered.
Corr. Baltimore Sun Qnd. Dem.)

Corr. Baltimore Sun Qnd. Dem)
Some of the oldest and most experienced
of the Southern politicians, who have been
considering the subject with much care,
find in the Federal patronage a source Of
danger to Democratic party unity, which Is
the cause Of solicitude, not unmixed wit
apprehension, for the future. The Solid
South was made such in the beginning and
has continued as such, because of struggle
for local self-government: The change in
the control of the Federal government has
relieved the states of the South from the
menace which has hung over them from
1866 of improper interference in their do
mestic affairs, and they are now placed on
the same footing in this respect as the other
states of the Union. The motives and fears
which held in perfect cohesion the dominant
party in the South have thus been senslbly
weakened. When place and patronage be-
come part of the reward of victory, most
fruitful source of dissension and distrust ID
at once engendered, and the public good il
lost sight of in the struggle for personal gain
and advantage. The wisest men of the South
see this plainly, aud confess without reserva-
tion that the standard of politics must IN
evitably be lowered by the contest now In
progress over the offices at the disposal Of
the general government, and warning cliques
and factions spring into existence. Already
in several of the Southers states intense bit
terness and animosity have developed over
the claims of rival applicants for Office and
drawn into the circle Of opposing forces men
of prominence, who have heretofore been
firm and fast friends. 1t has only been by
the closest unity that the representatives OF
good and honest government in the South
have succeeded in maintaining themselves,
and If they now subject that unity to the
strain which rough-and-tumble scramble
for Office will precipitate they may have
cause to regret it.

GEN. ANDERSON AND THE CoLLECToRsHIP.
Eastern Argus.
Our esteemed contemporary, the Bangor
Commercial, pays deserved compliment to
Gen. Anderson's high character for integrity
and to his enterprise and executive ability In
connection with the p. q o. railroad-all Of
which goes without saying. No Democrat
would gainsay 1t or wish to do so. He is
one of the ablest members of the party in the
State. But when our neighbor goes further
and declares that therefore he ought to be
made Collector of this port, the conclusion
is singular non sequitur from the premises
and is not in accord with the general judg-
ment of ''the first city of the State," as Is
conclusively shown by the papers on file in
the Treasury Department.
IT WAS A MATTER OF REWARD.
Vicksburg MISSY Post.
The assassination of Print Matthews in
November, 1888, undoubtedly had decided
effect upon the election in 1S94-in our
opinion, very few people in Copiah dared to
vote against Cleveland for President in 1884,
and to that extent, at least, was the Rlecto-
raj vote of this State affected. When, in
our Judgment, the proper time arrives for
discussing more fully this question, we shall
be ready to maintain our opinions and views.
Mr.. Meade and his compatriots or confeder-
ates contributed greatly to Cleveland's sue
cess in Copiah county, and il the Electoral
vote of the State had hinged upon the vote
of one county, no doubt Mr.. Cleveland's
partisans in Copiah would have been found
equal to the emergency. Now it seems to
us very inconsistent for Mr.. Cleveland to
demand Mr.. Meade's resignation, and We
agree with the Jackson Clarion 1.-THE orthodox
Democratic organ of the State) that 1t
amounts to an indictment Of whole people
the very people whose votes we're necessa-
ry TO Mr.. Cleveand's success.
