tracts:
THE RECEPTION.
The path to Mr.: Lincoln was rugged
for, after his room was reached, 10! he
was backed up in corner, and so button
holed by successive squads Of eager indi-
viduals-each of whom. by his earnest
gesticulations, had something of vital i'm
portance to communicate that quietfoll1s
who went there simply to pay their re-
spects to him as citizens, contented them
selves with bow and a look at the com
ing man. The eye, in glancing around
his apartment, could not fail 20 note the
large piano literally loaded down with
the cards showered upon the President
elect by those who would button-hole
him.
In the course of the evening, Hon.
John Bell, of Tennessee, by request of Mr.
Lincoln, had an interview with him,
which was of some length.
Among those who called upon Mr Lin
coin to-day, were Governor Seward, Sen
ator Summer, the New York, Pennsylva-
MIA and Indiana Congressional delcga-
tions, Judge Harris Vice-President Ham
lin, and Others Governor Hicks, of Ma
ryland, also called upon Mr.. Lincoln, and
held protracted consultation with him.

YOUNG BOB.
After dinner there was some turning of
eyes in the direction of the snloling-room
at Willards, it being noticed that Mr..
Robert Lincoln was enjoying a cigar
there, in company with some friends A
couple of well known harpists were per-
forming there at the same lime, and
group Of disunionists had the bad taste to
induce the harpists to play "Dixie," the
adopted national air of Secessia, for the
benefit of young Lincoln. The musicians,
however, on ascertaining the purpose for
which they were being used, made the
thing even by performing Hail Colum-
biz" with all the extras.
THE INEVITABLE JUDD.
One of the indefatigable workers against
Cameron is said to be Mr.. Judd, whose
name has got into the papers rather ex-
tensively of late in connection with that
of the President elect. Judd is here.
Judd is there, Judd is everywhere. At
Willards' one hears nothing but Judd
had great anxiety to see this Won
derful man He is chunky gentleman,
of about five feet FIVE inches. Has Il
broad, ruddy face, which shows well from
the contrast of his grey hair and flowing
beard approaching to whteness. He has
dark blue eye hooked nose-rather
short, and mouth neithe: expressive
nor forcibe. He is evidently q charac-
ter of much more tact than talent, and is
fully impressed with the onus Of the mys-
terious position he occupies in relation to
the President elect. The ahrewd ones
slyly say he managed to make Mr.. Lin
coin believe that he nominated him, and
SO puts in for large share of the spoils.
"REMINISCENCES OF THE FLIGHT.
The Journals all busy themselves in
chattering of the " things that were to
happen to Mr. >Lincoln-ifi in that Scotch
cap and military cloak, he Lad not pre-
cipitated himself by night into Washing
ton. The roguish Democratic editors are
full of jokes, gbes and jeers The escdp-
ade is a mine of fun to them. One Of
them thinks that Mr. Lincoln was scotch
ed and not killed" The Abolitionists
make the best of it, but that is not much.
They are all sure Lincoln cid right, eX
actly right-for they are so forced TO
think, and they fall back upon General
Scott as indorser and adviser. The names
of Bankers and " the Statesmen who
were to kill Mr., Lincoln are not yet Civ

The Tribune wakes valorous, and de-
clares that off the alleged conspiracy was
real, Mr.. Lincoln may li!e u hundred
years without finding another so good a
chance to die"
RELIC.
The Commissioner Of Patents has. we
hear, with most commenrIable alacrity,
enlarged the glass case containing the
sacred regimental suit of Gen. Washing
