honest and upright, was so poor that
he could not fee lawyer Old Abe

Two Faces otLincoIn.

Some enterprising publishers re.
Gently issued a life.size lithographic
portrait of MIR. Lincoln. the Republi.
can candidate for the Presidency. and
it is 50 ugly that it gives great ottenso
to the political friends of Mr. l.. We
have examined the picture at a dis.
tance, for we had not the temerity to
60 too near, and must confess that il
Mr.. Lincoln looks like that, lie must
have won his title of "rail splitter" by
merely smiling at the butt.end of a
strait.grained log, usihg a horse col.
lar to grin through in case the knots
were more than usually tough, and
plentiful. In fact, the old adage of
'"hardsome is who handsome does, .
will not apply to Ola Abe, for he ney-
eF could be handsome any way you
can fix it. Prentice OF the Louisville
Journal, is beauty beside him, and
Hooper, of Alabama, q perfect Apol.

This picture ofOld Abe makes him

yet all huddled together higglety pig.
glety, making up a physiognomy that
is fearful to behold. As an offset to
this genuine resemblance" some of
the hopeful young men of his party
ty have gotup g. pretty face of Old
Abe, which in our opinion, is Just as
much out of drawing as the other, but
not SO picturesque. lfOld Abeis ev.
er elected President he viii never
aaorn the White Rouse, that's certain.
We would respectfully suggest, if it
is his fate to be Chief Magistrate,
that at the West.rOom levees the
guests be provided with cut,grass
prisms, which might, by their distor-
ton, bring Old Abe's features into
something not altogether repulsive.-
If this is impossible, then he must
adopt the Japanese Tycoon style, and
give audience behsnd a screen.--Nc,o

The Elections Approach.

The State elections yet to take place
before the Presidential election, are
rapidly approaching. On Tuesday
next, a State election will be held in
Vermont; on Wednesday, in Califor,
mia; and on the Monday following, in
Maine. Elections will take place in
Georgia, Mississippi and Florida, on
Monday, October 1st; and in South
Carolina, on Monday, Oct. Sth. In
Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and
Minnesota, elections will be held on
Tuesday, Oct. 9th.S The Presiden-
tial election will take place on the
same day throughout the Union,
Tuesday, November 9Th. s& -
1t is gratifying to note that the
nearer the Presidential election ap-
proaches, the more firmly are the
people uniting and consolidating, with
a stern determination to rebuke the
spirit of sectionalism and disunion,
under whatever party name it may
present itself. 1t is true that there is
noi so much bluSter and parade as
have been exhibited in some previous
Presidential campaigns; but there is
in the mass of the people a quiet and
ardent attachment to the Union and
the principles Of self government,
which has shoWn itself in the State
elections that have already taken
place, and will be more strikingly ex-
hibited in those that areto follow
Yet even these latter will not show it
in its full force, bat we must wait un-
til the sixth of November shall have
come and gone, TO see the eiull strength

A MuIatto nIiIIennIum.

At the November election in New
York, an amendment to the State
Constitution is to be submitted for
popular decision, which authorizes
universal negro suffrage. Two Black
Republican legislatures have con-
CURED in recommending this negro
equality measure, and now that party
in New York are being urged by their
party organs, under lead OF the Trib-
une, to give the amendment their sup.
port. Some days ago the Journal had
a loose attempt to shuttle off the res.
possibility OF such movement from
Republicanism. Mr.. Lincol ms
speeches all proclaim the "good time
coming" when negroes and white
men shall form a common social and
political brotherhood, and it is meet
that his leading organ in the Union
shauld steer the way in the empire
State" for negro equality. "There
are but few Of them," Greeley says,
and why not let them have equal
privileges with white men! We shall
have the same contest in this State
next year. Mark it. Give Black
Republicans the power, and they
will spare no effort to reach that "prac.
tical equality of all men," which Mr..
Lincoln tells us is the great central
idea" to be ''labored for" Success
tul, we shall have the nigger at the
polls, the niger on the jnries, the
niger i'll the legislature, in our public
offices, and, with political power, it is
but one step, with those who think
with them, to concede them that so ,
cial position which will realize the
central idea" of common muTatto.

This is the "good time coming" to
be "constantly labOred for"-lhe mil.
lennium of Lincolnism. This is the
feast to which white men are invited,
in the name Of God and the Declara,
tion Of independence. White men,
do you hear it?--Lltnoi8 State Reg-

nFThe Rreekinridge Di.nnioni.

UThe Breckinridge Disunionists
of the South and the Lincoln Repub-
licans of the North--both "irrepressi-
bic conflict" men, who hold extreme
opinions,that admit of no compromise,
and which, if adopted, would shattsr
the Union-have the same feeling of
hostility to the Douglas and Bell men
that two enraged persons fighting have
to an outsider, who steps in and inter.
feres to prevent the fight. They both
frequently turn upon him with all their
might. Were it not for the Douglas
and Bell parties, the North and South
would now be engaged in q deadly
conflict, and would have each other
by the throat. The Douglas and Bell
parties are for peace and concord-the
Breckenridge and Lincoln are for war
and revolution. -

confidence in the election of Lincoln
as President, or he would not have
accepted the Presidency of the Illinois

places that would pay him better than
