Usually at the time of National elections the
country is flooded with editions Of the lives Of
the candidates. written in tho most glowing
terms, without much regard for truth. Tho
election of 1892 is to be battle of principles
rather than of men, and as tho leaders of both
parties have been occupants Of the Presidential
chair, their personalities are we'll known to
the public. What is necessary to the voter,
therefore, is to be intelligent OH the principles
of his party. In this encyclopedia of Repub-
lican politics the conditions Of the party, past
and present, are comprehensieely laid before
| the reader.
After short sketches of Harrison and Reid,
among others the following questions are dis
cussed Recent pension legislation the Boring
Sea controversy; the silver question; the
Chilean trouble; gerrymandering; the Nc
Kinley bill, and Blaine's reciprocity measures
| Tho volume, without doubt, is the best cam
| paign book ever issued.
A HISTORY OF THE 18TH N. Fl. By Leander
/ w. Cogswell, Henniker. N H. For sale by the
| author.
This is as fine regimental history as has
been laid before US in long while. The solid,
substantial neat appearance of its binding is in
its favor at first sight, and glance through its
pages at the large print, fine paper, and numer-
Gus well-executed maps and portraits, shows
the care with which the work has been pre-
pared. The work is ready, after years of hard
labor on the part of its writer. Particular
attention is called to the roster of officers and
men connected with the regiment; it has re.
quired a vast amount of patience and diligent
searching to make 1T what it is-the most COM
plete roster of any regiment of the State Of
New Hampshire; the postoffice addresses are of
| the latest date. There is an excellent diagram
of the battlefield of Fredericksburg, upon which
the regiment received its baptism of blood,
and behaved with extraordinary gallantry,
drawn by meml er Of the rebel battery that
made such havoc in the ranks of the 18th at
that time; and also of the brilliant assault at
the Shand House. There is a fine engraving of
| the old battlefags under which the regiment
fought so bravely. The narrative covers the
entire SERVICE and with its interesting scenes
OF army life and graphic details of battles,
| skirmishes, sieges, marches and hardships, it
will prove a valuable addition to the war
library of tho general reader and especially
| should every member of the regiment have it.

papers. Sunday saloons; but it also discusses
the religious and scientific aspects of the sub.
