PRESIDENT LINCoLN.-"S. B." of tn,

PRESIDENT LINCOLN" S. B." of the
Springfield Republican, who is presumed
to be Samuel Bowles, in a chapter of
Washington gossip, says:
" Nobody is making reputation faster
and surer now than President Lincoln.
When Congress assembled he was at
discount in both branches, and many of
his old political friends treated him with
marked neglect and discourtesy. Now,
all are Fastening to do him reverence.
His integrity, his wisdom, his caution, his
strength as man and statesman, are
warmly admitted on all hands; and he
has, more than any other man in the ma
ton, the respect ard confidence of Con-
gress and people, conservatives and radi-
Gals, the army and civilians He does
not move fast, but he moves sure and
strong.

ALARM AT PENSACOLA. - The Mobile
Register of March says that it is not true
that the Confederates intend to abandon PEN
sacola but fears from the fact that the Fed
erals have struck their tents on Santa Rosa
Island, that they are "again" on the move
for some enterprise against the rights and
liberties of the South, A Pensacola cores
pondent of the same paper says that much
anxiety prevails among the citizens the
merchants are packing up, and iamih'' who
are able are seeking other points ieF resi-
dence. The Governor of Florida is endeaV-
oring to raise men for the defense OF the
city. The City Council has passed an ord'-
nance compelling all owners of small vessels
in the bay to haul up their craft and place
them in the public square, in con equence OF
which the square is full of all kinds-sloops
and cared boats,

THE LATE COMET. The Complies
Rendus, of the French Academy of Sci
ences, contains several accounts of this
comet, communicated to the Academy by
M. LIE Verrier. Among them are the
elements of its orbit, by the discoverer,
NJ. futile, and telegraph from M. Otto
Strive, announcing its discovery by DR..
Winnicke, at the great Central Observa-
tory of Russia, at Pulkova. These ac-
counts show priority of physical discov-
cry of the comet of about two weeks in
favor of our Cambridge astronomer.
His elements indicate that the comet
was nearest the earth in the first week in
January and nearest the sun about a
month earlier. They have no resem-
blance to those Of any recorded comet,
and their parabolic character justifes as
tronomers in assuming that it will not re-
appear again for ages to come. 1t never
became visible to the naked eye, although
when nearest the earth it was estimated to
be about thirty-tive thousand miles in d.
ameter.

SLAVERY IN MIssouRI.-The "divine
institution" as its friends call it, is evil
IDENTIFY in "decline" in Missouri, and
that imperial State Of the West, in passing
through the red sea of blood, will reach
its deliverence from its wicked taskmas-
tiers A recent number of the St. Louis
News says;
"The rebellion is abolitionizing the
State, partly by the wholesale deportation
of slaves by disloyal masters to the Gulf
States; partly by the unresisted and I'M
opposed exodus of unclaimed and master
less slaves from the wealthy border and
river counties into Kansas, Nebraska,
Iowa and Illinois and partly by the al
most complete overthrow Of Slavery as an
institution in the State. There are many
slaves still in Missouri, but they are re-
garded by their owners as clog and in
cumbranoe."

ENLARGEMENT OF THE CHAMPLAIN
CANAL.-Hon. George Tyler of this county,
has introduced resolution in the Assembly,
instructing the State Engineer to examine
the Champlain Canal with view to its en-
largement so as to allow the passage of Gun
Boats through to Lake Champlain.
The General Government are taking
measures to find the most feasible route, &c :,
to the lakes from the sea board, and have
sent an Engineer to the different routes.
The Champlain Camel is the best and cheap
est route, The Government offers to appro.
pirate $5,ooO,ooQ for the purpose.
Are our people alive to the Importance of
the enterprise Some route will be selected
soon, and we trust that so important move
ment will receive the prompt attention Of all
concerned.

constituents for his zeal and foresight. Let

ABoL1rIoNIsM IN WESTERN VIRs1NII

ABoLITIoNIsM IN WESTERN VIRGINIA.
Our neighbor of the Wheeling Press and
our neighbor-in-law of the Clarksburgh
Telegraph, the paper owned and controlled
by the Hon. Mr.. Carlisle, are still slashing
about in raid against abolitionism. We as
sert that there are more Abolitionists in
West Virginia, in proportion to the popula-
ton than in New England. we will go fur
ther. We assert that there are not five
hundred men in the forty counties of West
Virginia who do not regard slavery as the
most formidable barrier to advancement
that the State has had to contend with -
1t is Improbable, and therefore a nuis-
ance, as every man knows. The more
wealthy men are, if intelligent, the more
they feel the evils it imposes. Why, even
jackson, in his letter, says he is opposed
to the Constitution because it does not
make West Virginia free. He cannot
wait for time to do its work; but wants
Freedom now, if he has a new State

THURSDAY MORNING, APRIL s.
GEMS FROM THE COURIER.

The Courier says that Congress spends
two thirds of its time legislating for the
everlasting Niger" Inasmuch as the
Coarip spends its whOle time in splurging
on the same subject, what right has it to
complain.
The Courier says that the Heraldis like
"the Paddy's flea; put your finger where
II yas and Il isn't there" In the same
article the Courier says that the Herald
is pulling new string and playing an old
ssmef" FL. . ..
cit is with sorrow and regret in
lacrymose strain--says the Courier, shat
we feel compelled to say that it was but
a short time ago that we had men among
us, ttro,.ghou, this country that were ex-
erting all their powers to impress the
mass Of the native born American people
with the idea that the foreign born citizens
Of this, then peaceable and happy Repub-
lie were dangerous to Republican govern
ment and to free institutions" Up to
the present time, and to the writing of the
above, we have never before seen in the
Courier the first recognition Of the rights
of any foreigner-outside of the true born
Irishman-we won't say Celtic the con-
sideration of the American people--and
its hostility to the Germans especially
to say nothing of the Africans-has here
tofore always been intense.
Well, we are glad to notice some i'm
provement in our contemporary in this re-
spect, and we desire him to mark well the
advance here made by him, slight though
ii be. Let us stick pin thar for the
present; and at some time hereafter, Mr..
Courier, we may have a word further to
offer on the subject. ......

The EMANCIPATION PRoJEoT.-The
Richmond Wing says of President Lin
coins recommendations to Congress in
reference to slaves in the border States :
"The Emperor Abraham 1 suggests to
his leges that, instead of spending their
money in making war on the South, they
shall propose to buy the Southern ne.
groes. Very sensible advice Of his maies-
ty. The war will ruin him, and then he
will have nothing with which to 90 into
the slave trade"

GETTING READY TO START.-Letters
from Havana state that JEFF Davis. within
the past six weeks, has had a large
amount of money deposited in the banks
OF that city. If this is reliable, it would
seem to indicate that the rebel chieftain
is looking forward to an early immigra-
ton movement" and is sending of his
"valuables" in advance.
JEFF. had better join Santa Anna at St.
Thomas He will find the one-legped

failed when the condition of his health
would permit, of daily occupying his seat
in this chamber during the sittings OF the
Senate"
While at Washington, ID, g., in the dis
charge of his duties as Senator, William
Upham died of the small pox, in the at
ternoon of the 14th day of January, 1883,
in the 61st year of his age, Appropriate
notice was taken of his death in both
Houses of Congress, and beautiful and
eloquent eulogies were spoken by Sena-
tors Foot and Seward, and Representa-
tiyes Miner and Meacham,
We close this sketch with the following
extracts from that of Mr.. Seward -
LAST summer, l stood beside the grave
of Ethan Allen, on the shore of Lake
Champlain. The lightning had descended
and had riven the native marble slab
which covered it, as if nature herself had
been willing to mark her appreciation of
the free, yet turbulent character of the
founder of Vermont, and captor CT Iicon-
deroga. But the rudeness and turbu-
lence of the earlier age of Vermont have
passed away, while her intelligence and
love of freedom remain increased and re-
fined by art and learning.
civilian UPHAM was of Vermont, a
consistent exponent of her institutions
the most equal institutions enjoyed by
man in this country and in the world,
He was a man of strong and vigorous
Judgment, which acted always by pro-
cess of sound inductiye reasoning, and his
compeers here will bear witness that he
was equal to the varied and vast respon-
sibilities of the senatorial trust. He was
plain, unassuming, transformations man.
He never spoke for display, but always
for conviction. He was an honest and
just man. He had gotten nothing by
fraud or guile, and so he lived without
any fear of losing whatever Of fcctune or
position he had attained. No gate was
so strong, no lock SO fast and firm, as the
watch he kept against the approach of
corruption, or even undue influence or
persuasion. He exacted little for his own
State, but, like her, was liberal to all
others. His national policy was the in
crease of industry, the cultivation of peace,
and the patronage of improvement. He
adopted his opinions without regard to
their popularity, and he never stifed his
convictions of truth, nor suppressed their
utterance, through any fear of power or
of faction; but he was, on the contrary
consistent and constant.
AS pilot well expert in perilous wave,
That to steadfast Stare his course hath bent.
81 was honored with a place in his
friendship, and Vermont was intimately
related to the State from which | came,
and, therefore, l thought it my right and
duty to speak just panegyric over his
remains. l wish that the wreath / have
contributed were more fit to adorn the
bier and grace the tomb of so true repre-.
| sentative and 30 upripht a statesman %

The MERRIMAc.-T The Philadelphia
Inquirer says that new and important
meaning has been assigned to the recent
raid of the Merrimac. There is reason
to believe that the sole object of the iron
plated monster in appearing as she did,
and destroying the blockading squadron
at the mouth of the James River, was to
enable the two smaller rebel vessels--the
Yorktown and Jamestown-to pass down
the stream and up Elizabeth river to Nor
folk and Gosport Navy Yard, where
there are ample facilities for rendering
them efficient iron-clad steamers, which
could not be done at Richmond. 1t is
thought they are intended to cooperate,
at some time not far distant, with the
Merrimac, in an attack upon all the Fed
eral shipping in Hampton Roads.

The road beyond Warrenton Junction is ut

Truth VS.. ERROR.

II is said that Error will run leagues
while Truth is getting on her boots-but
from the details relating to the capture OF
Newbern, we are led to infer that one Of
the right wings of Error in that vicinity
was thoroughly turned by the invading
army Of the North.
1t appears that rampant sheet, the
Newbern On. c. Progress, had been for
months disseminating its secession dog
mas, and that the whole establishment
was vacated on the approach Of Burnside.
As no army of the North goes out with
out its fair quota Of printers, it of course
followed that on the surrender of New
bern there were plenty of the disciples of
Faust on hand ready to run the machine
left on their hands.
A copy of the Newbern On. c. Pro-
gress, under its new management, of
March %, has made its appearance, and
from its Salutato,y we are inclined to
think that the tone of this heretofore vio-
lent sheet, has been decidedly improved.
In its opening article it says
1.-THE Progress makes its appearance
to-day under new auspices, and altogether
new management. We come before the
people Of North Carolina an earnest ad-
vocate of that glorious Union which her
patriotic ancestry so nobly aided to &C.
ment and establish. The patriotism of
this State is unquestioned, and she proud
" points to the Declaration of Indepen-
dence, made at Mecklenberg long before
the United States declared their olsen
thralment, as the harbinger of that ever
memorable event. We feel, therefore,
that it is work of supererogation to en-
ter into an elaborate defence of the
change Of policy which we inaugurate in
connecting ourselves with this journal.
The Progress will hereafter advocate
an adherence to the federal compact, and
labor assiduously to preserve the federal
Union without one Star being blotted out,
or its lustre even being dimmed. We
shall endeavor to pursue an impartial and
independent course toward all with whom
we have intercourse. To this end we
shall not war upon the peculiar institu-
tons or reserved rights of any class, but
shall advocate an adherence to all consti-
tutional requirements under which our
nation has thrived 80 long and happily.
The Progress has been heretofore one
Of the most virulent and bitter opposers to
the Government in the South, and its for
mer proprietor, not satiated with treason
already committed, has filled his cup of
bitterness by openly taking up arms
against the Union which has SO long fos-
tered and nourished him. That Govern
ment, SO fouIly and wickedly wronged,
has taken possession Of this Office, and
henceforth all publications emenating
from il win aim to disabuse the Southern
mind Of that prejudice and error which
has been encouraged by previous publ
cations. We war not against the institu-
lions Of the South, or with opinions we
war rather with those demagogues who
have so inaamed the public mind and
caused an appeal to arms necessary te
vindirate the majesty Of law and goot
goyernment. To this end, we shall de
