Abe in '4s and Abe in 81.

When a member of Congress, Abe ven.
tilated his notions on the right of the peo.
pie to change their government, which seem
to accord pretty well with the opinion.
of the South at this day. The N. o. Cres.
ent reproduces the speech and give the ex.
tract below The curious reader will fnd
the whole in the Appendix, to the Cong
Globe, lst session 18th Congress, p. "a, de-
lvercd 18th January, 1s4s.
Amy people anywhere, being inclined
and having the power, have right to rise
up and ehake OF the existing Government
and form new one, that suits them better
This Is a most valuable, a most sacred right
IA right which, We hope aud believe, is /.
liberate the woril Nor is this right con.
fined to eases in which the whole people
Of existing Government may choose TO ex
creiso t. Any portion Of such people that
can, n0y revolutionize, and M Ike their op,
Of so much Of the territory as they inhabit
More than this, majority cf any portion
of such pooplo may reyolutionize, putting
down 0,inority, intermingled with, or neal
about them, who may oppose their move
ments. 1t is quality of revolution no
to 20 by old lines or old lave; but to breal
up both, and make new ones.

A TERRIBLE REBUKE FOR LINCOLN AMI
HIS BACKERS

The following is theconclusion of Ex-President
Pierces letter TO the Boston Post, on the crisis
"The very idea ofthe disnemberment of the Union
has always been to me one of terrible significance.
STILL if it holds place in the inevitable march oil
timH--lf ,he noble fabric must totter to its fall
there is, | humby hope, no ineIorahe fate that
its ruins be stained with gore. il our fathers were
mistaken, and time has developed in our system,
or if tho madness of their sons has planted there
the germ OF the "irrepressibe conflict which for
bids longer to live together in peace then peace
and on just terms let US separate. Fearful wi II be
the responsibility of those who would cast the last
element OF human woe--that of fraternal slaugh.
ter--into the general chaos. The wisdom of man
fails---may God in mercy guide us.

War Terms.

The Columbiad or Psixhau pronounced
pay -zah) is large gun, designed principal
y for firing shells--it being Car more accu-
rate than the ordinary shot mortar.
A mortar is a very short cannon with's
large bore, some Of them thirteen inches in
diamiter for firing shells. Those in use in
our army are set at angle of forty-fve de-
grce5, and the range Of the shell is varied
by altering the charge of powder. Tho
shell is caused to explode at just about tho
time that it strikes by means of fuse, the
length of which is adjusted 10 the time of
to be occupied by the ball, which of course,
oriesponds with the range. The accuracy
with which the time of the burning of fuse
can be adjusted by varying its length is
surprising; good artillerists generally sue
ceeding in having the shells eplode almost
at the exact instant of striking. In load
a morter, the she'll is carefully placed with
the fuse directly forward, and when tho
piece is discharged the shell is SO complete
ly enyeloped with fame, that the fuse ia
nearly always fired The fuse is made By
filing wooden cylinder with fuse powder
the cylinder being Of sufficient length for
the longest range, to be cut down shorter
for shorter ranges as required.
A Dalhgren gun is an ordinary cannon,
except that it is made very thick at the
breech for some three or four feet, whom it
tapers down sharply to less than the usual
size. This form was adopted in consequene
of the experiments of Captain DaIhgren,
Of the United States Navy, having shown
when gun bursts il usually give way at
the breech. The Niagara is armed with
these guns, and at the Brooklyn Navy Yard,
there are sixty, weighing about nine thous-
sand pounds each, and six of twelve thous-
and pounds weight each, the former Of
which are capable of carrying nine-inch,
and the latter a ten-inch shell distance
of two or three miles; and there is one gun
of this pattern which weighs fifteen thous.
aud nine hundred and sixteen pounds, aud
is warranted to send an eleven inch she'll
four miles.
A easement is a stone roof to fort made
sufficiently thick TO resist the force of can.
non balls, and a acasemate gun is one which
! is placed under easmate.
| A barbetto gun is one which is placed on
the top Of the fertilization.
An embrasure is the hole or opening
through which guns are fred from forti6-
cations

2 pair drawers, white cotton or wool in

Adopted, unanimously, March IL, 1891.

An APT RPLY.-0n Monday evening lss', when
our streets crowded with sodiery, and inspir-
iting martial music stirred all hearts, lady passed
along one of the principal thoroughfares, when a
volunteer, who probably felt the tone touch of ma
ture which makes the whole world kin, very po.
litely saluted her by raising his hat and remarking
Farewell my good lady-Im going off to fight for
piled: "And | intend remaining here to pray for
you, sir" There was something ia this reply 50

that warm and truly generous heart beat in the

to invoke the benediction of heaven upon them

CnANoEs OF BEING KILLED IN WAR

CnANoEs OF BEING KILLED IN WAR
Marshal SAKE, high authority in such
things, was in the habit of saying that to
kill man in battle, the man weight in
lead must be expended A French medi-
cal and sulgisal gazette, published at Ly.
ons, says th,s fact was verified at Solferino,
even with the recent 6 eat improvement in
firearms The .Austrans fred eight mil
lion four hundred thousand rounds. The
loss of the French and Italians was two
thousand killed and ten thousand wounded.
Each man hit cost seven hundred rounds,
and every man Killed cost four thousand
two hundred rounds The mean weight of
balls is one ounce; thus, we 6nd it requires,
on an average two hundred and seventy
two pounds of lead to kill man. If any
of our friends should get into a military
fight, they should feel great comfort in tho
fact that seven hundred shots may be fred
at them before they are hit, and four thous.
and two hundred before they shuttle OF
the mortal coil"
