Washington, April 8.

A report made by the committee on
elections in the case of Loan of Missouri, is
signed by Mr.. Carson, Caves, Voorhees,, Par
kcr, ard Brown of Wisconsin. They say the
evidence discloses ample proof that a portion
of the militia of certain localities disregard en-.
tirely theinjut ctions by assuming who Shouts
and who should not vote, and for whom, and
by threats of violence, and they SO far inter.
fered with the election as in the opinion of tie
committee will render it nullity.
Representatives Epson, Smithers, Smith
and Schoield of the minority, see no reason
for invalidating the election, hence join in a
resolution that Loan is entitled to the place
he now occupies.

NIassa Lincoln.

We find the following elegant, classical
grammatical, chaste, polished, refined and
graceful letter from the President of the Uni
ted State, in the Little Rock (Arkansas) Ua-
conditional Union. Read it, ye admirers Of
Abraham Lincoln:
"W4sn1NGToN, February 8, 1864.
t"To William FIsh6ack:
"When I fixed a plan for an election in Ar
kansas, [ did it in ignorance that your Con.
~vention was at the same work. Since i learn,
ed the latter fact I have been constantly try
ing to yield my plan to theirs. 1 have sem
two letters to General Steele and three, er,fou,
dispatches to you and others, saying that he
E(General Steele),must be master, but that il
will probably be best for him to keep the Con
venGon on its own. plan. Some single mind
must be master, else there will be no agree
ment on anything and General Ste Gle, com
manding the military land being on the ground
is the best man to be that master. Even now
citizens are telegraphing me to postpone the
election to- later day than either alike by the
Convention or me. This 1iscord must be 81
fenced. A. LINCOLN.
Is Abraham Lincoln in his right mind ? Is
anybody SO silly as to think that a man with
such a mind and such notions can. save any
people from utter ruin, anarchy, and miseries
untold ? The head crazy, the body will natur
ally require a straight jacket. What a docu-
ment to go the nations of the earth Sup
posing such a thing was to come from the Con-
federate government, what would ire Adolf
ton writer's say of it? Old Jack Downing
himself can do better than that.-Crisis.

that the financial quackery has nearly run its

Although not disposed to favor or recommend
Patent Medicines in general, through distrust of
their ingredients and effects. 1 yet know of no
sufficient reasons why a man may not testify to
the benefits he believes hiwsef to lave received
from any simple preparation, In the hope that he
may thus contribute to the benefit of others.
L do this most re Oily in regard to Hollands
German Biiters, prepared by Dr.. G., NJ. jackson,
of this Cit, because l was prejudiced against
them for many years. under the impression that
they were chiefly an alcoholic mixtEre. l am in
debted to my friend, Robert Shoemal er, Esq, fer
the removal of this prejudice by proper tests, and
for encouragement to try them, when suffering
from great and long continued debility. The use
of three ott1es of these Bitters, at the beginning
of the present year, was followed by cyit ent relief
and restoration to a degree of bodily and mental
vigor which I had net felt for six months before,
and had almost d~espaired of regaining. 1 there
fore thank God and my friend for directing nae tie
the use of them.

tinually, and yet not one of their heads ''have
fallen upon the judicial block We declare
without the fear OF contradiction that no GOV
eminent on the face of the earth has ever
been so lenient to rebels and traitors as ours
has been. All its acts have shown;the fact as
clear as sunbeam, and all the Americans
now see it and the people of other countries
see it..
If President Lincoln has erred at all. il has
been on the side of mercy, and the intelligent
and impartial historian OF this rebellion will
SO record the fact, Again we say in the Ian
guage Of Mr.. Seward, 'Not one head has fall
en- on the judicial blocki" when thousands
have deserved such a fate, and such punish
ment would have been meted out to them
under any other government. Abraham Lin
coin has been charged with the very crimes Of
which his accusers have been guilty them
selves, and these charges have been put into
every possible form which human ingenuity
could devise. A Thousand changes have been
rdng upon this charge Of despotism, appeals
have been made to all the weak sides of hu-
man nature, and all the worst passions ofmen
have been awakened, but thank God, Abra-
ham Lincoln has survived them all, and his
name shines the brighter for having passed
| such an ordeal.
He relied upon the patriotism and intelli-
gence and virtue Of the people, and these
have not failed him in the hour Of his sever
est trial. Such a verdict Of the people will
place his name high on the scroll Of fame,
while his vile assailants viii be sunk into OBJ
livion, or be remembered only to be despised
and cursed as the enemies of their govern
| ment snd country. s4i - t4aOn@ -

ment of the American people-but one word
that can give outness to the American heart
since the victory on Tuesday last Glorious i!
GLORIOUS! GLORIOUSi sssaI .hsalso1
The election of course passed off quietly in
our rural town, yet there are few things that
it may be well to make mote Of" as Capt.
Cutie would say. .s1ss3 n iga5oa
I First, all the soldiers voted for "Father
Abraham" On arriving at the polls they
would ask of some ballot distributor, "what
have you got there ?" Lincoln and Johnson
"TAat's the vote TOR me" and with grit that
virtually said to copperheads, "hands off," they
would deposit a vote for Freedom and Law
then going by themselves, relate the adven-
lures of soldier life. s.l-..
Secondly, one of the heroes of Gettysburg
was martyrized by a famous (infamous) dele
gate to the Chicago Convention. On the morn
ing of the 9Th, the following catechism was re-
where the noble defender of our flag was max
ing his home. "Do you intend to vote for
Mcclellan, to day ?" 81 don't think shall. u
"Then you are not wanted at my house. -
Thus one Of the brave fellows who fought at
Gettysburg, was taken prisoner, marched to
Richmond, incarcerated in Libby Prison
where he suffered all the horrors of that bar.
barous place, and from the effects Of which he
has not yet recovered, was turned out of doors
before breakfast because he would not stul-
tify his conscience AID vote for treason. ]
need not add that like all martyrs he Is ex-
ceedingly popular just now, and will stand
well in history, while the "would-5e" exalted
one (auite famous when the particle in Is pre-
fixed to the word is making arrangementst to
pay his bets and go into winter quarters.
Thirdly, an NJ. D. was terribly benumbed by
the conclusion of the balloting. Wednesday
he was seen with some of his ilk wearing 8
saturnine face, and heard to remark, sit will
take three weeks to find out how the election
has gone" s3 sesi s46,.3 ,sea s3.s
Fourthly, the boys rang the bells and fired
guns Wednesday evening, which alarmed Q
grey bearded "Cop" in the suburbs, and drew
from him calculations more emphatic thar
