layed paying Lincoln, until all the other work
men had left. Then he asked him to come
down to his Office that evening.
We may imagine the relieffelt by the wife
of Lincoln, when she knew that regular en-
ployment was insured to her husband 1t was
real pleasure TO see her face. And all the
clouds seemed flung away before the rising sun
Of prosperity.
When Mr.. Lincoln entered the office of Mr..
Brown, the latter instantly produced drawings
of the hall, and asked his opinion upon various
points connected with architecture His re-
plies were given with so much simplicity and
clearness, that Mr.. Brown said:
L think, Mr.. Lincoln, that you will suit me.
If you will take charge of this work. 1t will
be a profitable one, in proportion as it is well
managed lift is not rightly conducted, there
can be great deal of money lost
Il do not wish to urge myself into this posi-
ton, Mr.. Brown, but this | may say, that no
care or faithfulness on my part shall be want
ing
Very well; we will consider the matter set
tied Can you leave town next Mondayg
yes
The two gentlemen separated. That Job
and many Others were faithfully performed UNI
der the superintendent of Mr. Lincoln. and
the result was, that after years efficient la
Dor, he became so necessary to the business,
that there was a new sign hung out-Brown &
Lincoln.
Since that bold stroke for a livelihood. Mr.
Lincoln has experienced no difficulty. That
single effort showed himself, as well as others,
the iron purpose he possessed He is now one
OF the solid men of the city where he resides !;
solid, not only with regard to the gold in his
Golfers, but also with respect to the sterling
gold Of character, which is priceless
When people saw ,chat he could do. and bo,c
he could do it, his services were not only Az
ceptable, but eagerly sought after. His chill
dren inherit his qualities. and already more
than one of them has attracted the attention
and regard of those who can appreciate true
worth, joined, as in their cases, with undoubt-
cd talent.

Abolition and Republican statesmen show by
almost every act OF theirs how short-sighted they
are in their legislation. They know or ought to
know, for instance, that an enormous debt has
already been created by the existing war. They
ought to be honest enough to make provision for
the payment of this debt and for the payment of
the interest on it till it is paid But what do they
propose to do instead of this? To emancipate
four millions of slaves in the Southern States
worth a. property not less than $4,000, 900 600.
Now If this property be destroyed by an emanci
patton act, there will be that much less property
in the country on which taxes can be assessed,
and consequently whatever property remains will
have to bear much more of the taxable bur
dens. Nor is this all. The emancipation of the
slaves will lessen the productive property of the
South, which might also be taxed TO help to pay
the national debt and current expenses of the
Government, so that il is clear that for every
dollar the value of Southern property is lessen
ell, much the more taxation must Northern
property bear III consequence OF this lessenng of
value.
Every act. then, which lessons the value of
Southern property tends to impose so much more
burden of taxation on Northern property and
on Northern people This is practical question
for people to consider, and one which should not
be left to be decided by the Abolition or Repub-
lican platform Dubuque Herald.

Our forces are within two miles of the rebel

1t also expstiates on the importance OF the cap
ture of New Orleans. and saws the North has a
right to presume that the hour OF final success Is
approaching.
The Times also says: The rebels are appar-

in which the military leaders have allowed them

~ The New York Herald, in commenting
upon "the repuse of General BANKS and the les
son il teaches" remarks:
The repulse of General Banks from the valley
of Virginia can only be regarded II very unfor
tunate event. That he has made mastery re
treat. after having been brought several times in
collision with the overwhelming forces of the pur
suing rebels, Is apparent from the distance of
sixty miles or more traversed by his little army in
two days. He has thus, in saving his army from
capture. done more than could have been expect
eel OF him under the circumstances. But he has
succeeded, not only in saving his troops, but his
baggage trains which would have been more val
liable to the scanty supplied rebels than the cap
ture of three times the number of his men, with
out their supplies and TRANSFORMATION.
