Mr. LincOiu-The way he Initiates
Washington. Jefferson. and Nadi.

In February. 1861. when Mr. Lincoln was on
his way to Washington, he addressed a deputa-
ton OF citizens OF Kentucky in this city, and
stated what would be the policy Of his Adminis-
tration in the following distinct and unmistakable
terms:
I'VE mean to treat you near possibly
can as Washington, Jefferson. and Madison
treated YOU. We mean To leave you alone, aud
in no way to interfere with your Institutions to
abide by all and every compromise of the Con-
stitutOn"
And how did Washington. Jefferson and Mad
ison treat slavery aud the slaveholding communi-
ties? Washington signed the tirstlaw for the re-
delivery OF fugitiveS from labor; Jefferson pur
chased vast slave empire. and Madison voted
for the provision OF the Constitution to continue
the slave trade for twenty years And how has
Mr.. Lincoln treated slavery and the slaveholding
communities lie has, under party pressure
given his signature BILL passed in the heat of
tanstical excitement, TO abolish slavery in the
District OF Columbia. He has sent a message TO
Congress advising the passage of resolutions to
encourage emancipation In the States What OF

E 5HoyIDra-ssnAps Uspra sHa TaBLE.- Among the hundred interesting anecdotes rela- ted by Capt. Gregg in. his speech in Court Square when he was home last, was one showing the asiditY with which the federal prisoners sought for news. For weeks after the battle of Shiolh, where they were prisoners, they could not learn one word as to thes results of the bat tie or the progress of the war. Every avenue of intelligence was carefully guarded, and no man was allowed one word of conversation with the prisoners Under these circumstances the public can judge the anxiety of the federal of hcers to get some word of news as to passing events. We'll, one day arebel officer came in, to the prisoners @quartera on business. and while there he accidentally laid aneWspaper on the table. Instantly eager eyes were Axed on that newspaper, and plan was formed 70 gam possession of it. Lieut.. John ".

 of the paper. When the rebel came to leave ne

 ing that somebody had stolen it. He did not
 get it. however, and he ordered all the lights
 extineuished so they could not read it. and d.
 rected search to be made for it. While this
 search was going on in one room, m adletaiag room showed how . rebel could be cheated, Gen. Prentiss and Capt.
