"Old Abe"

Mr.. Lincoln's name is not Abraham,
but Abram. After the election it will
do to call him Abraham. The old patr-
arch of Holy Writ was named Abram
until certain period in his life, when
his name was changed to Abraham. We
read Of this in the 18th chapter Of Gene
sis, as follows.
. "And God talked with him, saying,
As for me, behold, my covenant is with
thee, and thou shalt be father Of many
nations. Neither shall thy name any
more be called Abram, for father Of
many nations have | made thee. And |
will make thee exceedingly fruitful and |
will make nations of thee: and kings shall
come out Of thee. And | will establish
my convenant between me and thee, and
thy seed after thee in their generations,
for an everlasting covenant; to be a God
unto thee, and to thy seed after thee, for
thy name shall be called Abraham. And
l will give unto thee and to thy seed af-
ter thee, the land where thou art stran-
ger, all the land Of Canaan, for an ever
lasting possession; and | will be their
God"

he was waited upon by large number
Of "bosom friend" headed by Bill Rose
of strychDine whiskey notoriety. He
commenced his artistic labo-s at an early
hour on Saturday morning. By 10
O'Clock A. M, his hat might have been
seen hanging on his ear. By half past
ten his capillary vegetation was dishevel-
ed and portion Of it covered his fore
head. By twelve o'clock his coat was
whitewashed by wall which staggard
against it. By one o'clock his ExceIlen-
cy was remarkably "ferocious," and was
engaged in spirited debate in a subter-
ranean beer saloon with Teutonic gem
tleman, whom he honored with certain
digniied titles which we think best to
omit, and by two O'Clock Roberts nose
had run itself against Teuton's fist, and
without injuring the bunch of fves, ma
terially disfgured itself. AT three O'Clock
Bill Rose was busily engaged in tying the
nasal organ ofthe Governor Of Missouri in
a handkerchief, to preserve it for future
use. The "bust" was now complete, aud
any artist who can equal it will please no
tify US Of his ability to do so.

We are Ready.

Some Of our Democratic contempo-
raries in this State, since the nomination
Of Mr.. Lincoln by the Republicans Ma
tonal Convention, are more than ever
vociferous that Mr.. Douglas should be
the nominee of the Baltimore Convention.
We trust they may be grantiied, as there
is no man in the entire Democratic
party whom9 the Republicans of Illinois
would take more pleasure in having Mr..
Lincoln beat than Stephen A Douglas
In the Senatorial contest Of 1858, Mr..
Douglas, through an unjust proportion
ment succeeded securing majority Of
the Legislature, yet he was in a minority
Of severel thousand votes on the popular
vote. Bring Mr.. Douglas out, and the
majority against him in November next,
will be increased 10000. The Republicans
of Illinois are anxious for the contest tt
be between Mr.. Lincoln and Mr.. Douglas
fully satisfied as they are that the Gin
inutive giant will be the worst beat De
mocrat that ever took the field. We are
ready aching for the fight. III. State
Jour.
So say we. Bring out the Ii tile Giant
and let the people of Illinois choose be-
tween the too, under circumstances al.
lowing their choice to have effect.
