Because the President decided against
the Radicals of Missouri and Kansas in
the sohofeld matter, to their no small re-
gret and indignation, the Republican and
other seymOurites have very cOOlly claim
ed Mr.. Lincoln as oa their side. In view
of this fact it is matter of interest to
quote the Presidents latest expression, 60
ing to show with which side his sympa-
thies are, In a letter recently written by
him to Governor Bradford, of Maryland,
en- the subject of the election in that State,
he uses the following truthful language;
"In this struggle for the nations life I
cannot so confidently rely on those whose
election may have depended upon disloyal
votes. Such men when elected may prove
true, but such votes are given them iu the
expectation that they will prove false"
These ere noble words, and the heart of
the man that uLters them cannot be very
far astray. Is it not slightly cool, to say
the least of it, to claim man entertaining
such views, to be on the side of party
which got twelve hundred majority in Cal
lsWsy county, fifteen hundred in Howard,
one thousand in Platte, twelve hundred in
Clay, and received the vote of every rebel
voting in the State of Missouri.

have been planted by the Emperor Louis,

by his father, Charlemsgne, was removed
to Elze. The documents proving this fact
were destroyed by FIRE in the Cathedral
in 1913, but later records show that in
1913 Bishop Hezilo had a wall built round
the tree to protect it. For centuries past
this wild tree has been an object of inter
est to travellers and naLuralists, and no
stranger ever goes to Hiedesheim without
visiting the Imperial rose tree by the side
of the Cathedral. Within the last year
the old roots have sent forth several new
shoots, one of which is now twelve feet
high and nearly an inch in diameter.

PRgsEETATION.-A very pleasant affair
came of at Engins House No. 1, on Sat-
urday evening, on occasion of the presSnta-
tion to Captain Kidd of fine gold-headed
cane, by the members of his Company. At
nine o'clock Captain Kidd was escorted to
the Engine House by Messrs. A. A. Cavanah
and E. R. Clark, and presented to the Com
pany. D. H. Boyd, Esq, Engineer, in pre-
senting the cano to hin, addressed him as
follows:
" Ms. EIDD-SR: Your UNMARRIED courtesy
and gentIemanly bearing towards US, as an
officer, has endeared you to US by more than
ordinary friendship, and, desirous Of mani
Testing some token Of our regard, we beg
your acceptance Of this cane. And believe
us, Sir, that with it you have our best wishes
for your future happiness and prosperity"
Captain Kidd, in receiving the cane, made
the following modest and appropriate reply.
GsNTLENRS:- cannot express my sur
prise and pleasure in receiving from you this
elegant cane. I am not conscious of having
done anything to merit at your hands this
testimonial Of esteem. In accepting it,
must express the belief that your magnsnim-
ity has led you to overlook many errors on
my part. Please accept my thanks for the
gift, with full appreciation of your motives
in bestOEing it, and the assurance of my
personal regard for each one of you, with the
earnest hope that the happy relations which
have existed between US, for long time,
may continue unbroken, and that each Of you
may be blessed with peace, happiness and
success in ife."
The cane bore the following inscription:
" Presented to William Kidd, by the mem
bers ofStesm Fire Engine Company, No. l."
The names Of the members are added.
The whole affair passed of pleasantly and
agreeabIy.

The Coal Trade.

The coal tonnage, says the Philadelphia
Ledger, fNots up about the same as our
last report, and increases the aggregate
tonnage Of the season to 2ll,919 tons,
against 6,608, 500 tons to corresponding
time last year, being an increase of 1,5l3,-
999 tons. Notwithstanding tSis immense
production and large increase over cor
responding time last year, the price Of
coal Is steadily on the advance, having
gone up 81 per ton since this day week.
Lshigh coal is now retailing from the
yards in this city at $40 per short ton of
1000 pounds, at $ll 20 per long ton of 2, :
240 pounds. The demand for coal is ac-
tive, and notwithstanding a scarcity of
suitable vessels for the trade, coal does
not accumulate on the wharves.

Like Defenses.

When our relations with England were
of the equiVocal character which invited
belief IN the approach of war with that great
power, We had frequent occasion to point
out to Congress and to our readers the
defenseless condition of the lake cities, and
the incaleulable injury that hostile TO
tills on the lakes, Insignificant on the
ocean, might do to the resources Ct the Re-
public. The alarm in view of the possi-
bility CT the sending Of one vessel with
hostile intent, from Canada to Cleveland
or Buffalo, shows how well founded our
spprebensions have been, and how in the
mind of the country now go profoundly
sgitsted, the necessity for adopting 8 sys-
TEN Of lake defenses is rooted and fur
thermore, how satisfactory some speedy
aud comprehensive action Of Congress and
the Executive, in that direction would be
to the people.
We renew the warning note, and this
time, we call upon the President himself
who is familiar with the country to be
protected against hostile incursions, and
who knows the importance Of the sound
ness Of the West TO the health Of the
whole body pOlito, to give this its due
consideration, weight and prominence in
the message to Congress that he must now
be preparing. And in advance we entreat
Pennsylvania and New York to lend their
aid to any feasible and efficient plan that
| the authorities may adopt. Each one Of
these States has territory lying upon the
lake coast, liable to the ravRges Of the foe
who approaches us from the North; hence
our interest is their interest, and to them
the West looks for aid = Chicago Tribune
In connection with the above, we would
say that our city, with population of co.
900, which will bo increased to 100000
within ten yesrs,i is liable to be at the mercy
Of single gunbOat and it has no means Of
defense whatever. A gunboat can take 9
position on the lake in front of the city
and demand the payment of q heavy ran.
som, say three millions of dollars, and il
case Of refusal to pay, can lombard tht
city and burn it up, and this too will b.
