Mr Lincoln" from the fear that by his defeat the
country would be condemned to worse rule" Who the
worse mao could be it difficult to imagine from
the following sketch which Brownson gives of his ia
vorite. Truly, be must have deporable choice, it
Lncoln is his best. We copy from the Washington
Constitutional Union:
