This article presents information related to publishers and publishing of several books and literature. Recent bulletins of the Treasury Department contain decisions of Secretary John Sherman upon certain art matters that are interesting. The customs officers at this port having charged a duty upon engravings printed in this country from an American plate, but sent abroad for the signature of the artist who painted the original picture, appeal was taken to the Secretary. Ervin T. Case's book "Battle of the Mine, in the Rhode Island series of personal narratives of the rebellion to which it had been often alluded, is one of the most graphic yet published.
