Of President Dsvfs at

It being generally known that our distin'

By The civic authorities Of the city, when be

speech from our worthy Mayor, Hon. R. H.

The LincoIa Reception al EndianaDoRs-Large
CroDd-Hs Speech in Bad English, but
Strong for Coercion.
Prom the Cincinnati Enquirer
INDIANAPOLIS, February 1.-THE crowd to
receive Lincoln was very large, not less than
ten thousand persons haviRg assembled on
Washington street, in front Of the Bates
house. When Mr.. Lincoln appeared on the
balcony a few cheers were ssng up, but they
were not marked by any great degree Of en-
thusiasm. Governor Morton then introduced
the Presicens elect to lhe people, after which
Mr.. Lincoln addressed them substantially as
follows:
He thanked the crowd for their cordial re-
eeptioD, and said be would be compelled to
make short speeches on bis way to Washing
ton, or be should be worn out before be
reached his destination. He then referred in
directly to our national troubles, and said tae
terms coercion and invasion were Ia constant
use these days Suppose (he asked) we sim
ply try If we can ascertain what is the mean
ing Of these words. Let Us get the exact def
milton, not from The dictionary, but from the
men who constantly use them. Would the
marching Of an army iato South Carolina. for
instance, without Tie consent OF Der peopls.
be coercion OF invasion? frankly think it
would. But II the Government should simply
insist upon holding lbs own for's and enforcing
rs laws 10 the collection OF duties, or with
draw the malls from these portions Of the
country where they are habituallT violated,
would that be coercion? Mind, 7 don't say it
would be, l simply ask the question.
Those who profess 10 love the Union think
these things would be coercion or Invasion. If
/ they DO, the means for preserving lie Union
are very airy. Homeopathic pills are alto
gether too large for then to swallow. In this
view, the Union would not Be a marriage, but
passionsl attraction. A State holds its sacred
ness By virtue Of its connection with the
Union. lie said be referred to that assumed
right OF a State Sc a principle above the Con-
stitution-to rule all that is less than itself,
and ruin an that is greater. Is a State any
better than a country Woula the change Of
name change the right? What right have
one-fftieth Of d ration TO break The nation up?
Now mind, he rspsated, ] an only asking
questions, not deciding anything. I throw
them cut for you % think a.
Hr. lincoln concluded BY again thanking
the people for their reception, and withdrew
amid some cheering. Everybody says his
speech, though a bad specimen Of English,
means coercion. After tea the parlors Of the
Bates house were thrown open, and many per-
sons paid their respects 10 the illustrious rail-
splitter, shaking him BY TIE hand tin he was
weary of their kindness.

upon he ground that somsbody told them Mr.

From Mr.. Carell, a passenger on the i'll.
fated steamer, we learn that, when about eighI
miles below D0naldsonville, at II o'clock OF
Sunday night, the boat was discovered to be on
fire in the cotton, bat such was the rspidity OF
the flames that neither the place nor origin Of
the fire could be aseertained. In about fifteen
minutes the boat was a complete mass Of FIRE.
To the cool and intrepid conduct Of Mr.,
Charles Yates, her pilot, who ran the boat
ashore and remained az bis posi- until driven
from it by the flames, those VINO were saved
owe their safety; also to DIR. Henry Merte-
man, the engineer on watch at the time Of the
accident, who stayed at bis post IS long as
was possible. Yet, notwithstanding this, We
are informed that the following persons are
known to be lost;
DR.. Milikin and wife, got on at Vieksburg,
and are supposed to be from Mississippi; Mr..
Davie and lady, Of Tennessee; Mr.. Dsvie and
lady were seen, shortly after The discovery of
the FIRE, in the water, a short distance below
the boat, bot after that nothing was seen Of
them, and it is generally supposed by all on
board that they were drowned. There are a.
50 three negro women known to be lost.
The following are the names Of the passen-
gers known to have been injured
DR.. Thorn, leg broken; a young Irish girl,
badly burned; Mrs. White, leg broken. The
sufferers were left at the place Of the accident.
The CharneF bad on board about $500 bales
OF cotton, and between fifty and sixty passen-
gers. She was owned BY Captains Wilson and
Holmes, the latter being in command at the
time Of the accident. She was valued al Sf15.-
900, and was insured in western Offices for
about $4,000. The only one Of her books
saved was the ledger.

An Incident of the Italian Tnsurrsc,
Hon.

lion.
Il is sometimes inconyenient to be famous.
Professor Holloway, the distinguished medical
reformer, once had experience OF the fact. It
was his fortune, or misfortune, to be in Pied
mont when the Italian revolution o. 1919 was
at its eliminating point. He had been on a
tour through the Swiss Alps, investigating the
phenomena of an extraordinary case Of
s~crofula indigenous to that region, and known
az eTetinism. While thus engaged, and intent
on observing the effect Of his remedies upon
the prescribed and hideous race who have in
hsrited for many generations this horrible dis
order, the torch OF civil war had been lighted
at Milan, and its flames had Illuminated The
whole Lombardo- Venetian territory. At the
time when be set forward on his Journey south,
Charles Albert, of Sardinia, had been driven
beyond Mineic, and Radetzky's victorious
troops were in full pursuit. Expecting that
his neutral position as an Englishman, and bis
character as a man Of science, would protect
him from outrage, DR.. Holloway fearlesslv set
out upon bis journey through the peninsula .
but a circumstances occurred uoon which he
hal not calculated. Marshal Rsde' zky. IN the
very flush OF victory, had been taken suddenly
III, and one Of the advance parties Of bis army
having encountered DR.. HoIloway's carriage
and discovered who was its inmate, his pres
ence was requested at headquarters. to attend
upon the sick veteran. As a peaceful civilian
and bis suite cannot gain much in a DISPUTE
with q troop Of horse, the doctor submitted
viii the best grace possible. He found the
SCARED and wTinkled soldier in great suffering.
The tatigues Of the campaign had brought on
2 bilious fever Of a very severe type, and as
kadetzk7 was then nearly seventy wears Of
age, the army surgeons shook their heads
omi aousiy. The marshal at once out himself
under DR.. Hoilowsy's care, and the latter pro-
cesded to administer bis famous internal rem
edy. The fever soon subsibed, and in less than
three weeks the commandments was once
more IN the saddle. He paid bis physician a
happy compliment on bis recovery. 9You.
