Political Gleanings From The Nation And States

Endicott discovers a clerk appointed by Jeff Davis as war secretary who once edited a democratic paper. Removal of Virginia officials proceeds to purge Mahone influence. The New York Tribune attacks Mr Lothrop Michigan minister to Russia, but state leaders defend his integrity with strong bipartisan support.
