ABRAHAM LINCOLN A REPRESENTATIVE

ABRAHAM LINCOLN A REPRESENTATIVE
MAN.-The Springfield Republican prints
glowing eulogy upon the life and course Of
President Lincoln, from which we take the
following: People may say what they will
Of the President, they cannot possibly put
their hand upon or point to any other man
in the Republic who represents to the peo-
pie, north and south Of Mason's and Dixon's
line, and to the whole civilized world, so
much Of the honest loyalty and the real DEM
ocratic principles Of the country as Abraham
Lincoln. He stands out from all the men Of
his section and his time-aud not alone by
reason Of his ofice-as the representative Of
the republieanism Of the republic, the cham
pion Of democratic principles, the friend Of
the Union and Constitution, and the foe Of
all class privilege and class domination.
Every man, loose from the bondage Of politi-
cal ambition, and loose from the greed Of
power and the love Of slavery, thinks well Of
Abraham Lincoln, and casts in his lot with
him. Thousands Of Democrats, converted
to freedom BY the war, have, from the mo-
ment Of their conversion, become his friends:
His way Of saving the country is recognized
as the only way. A conquered peace IS the
only peace deemed possible

How Would You Like Its

Suppose the Government Of the United
States now proclaim an armistice, and enter
upon negotiations with the rebel cut-throats,
and guerrillas Of the conthieveracy, and COM
missioners to meet at Washington or Rich
mond, how would the loyal people who have
contributed blood and treasure to the war,
IKE 70 see the old national emblem, the stars
and stripes, crossed with the confederate
stars and bar, and the guerrilla black flags Of
the rebellion Would loyal blood run cool
and placidly while the United States Com
missioners sat under the folds of the national
banner, talking like mendicants, across to
commissioners under the rag which has, for
nearly four years, Aaunted defiance at US ?
Yet, copperheads ask nothing less than such
q scene, when they ask for an armistice TO
negotiate.-Oregon Statesman.
The people made remark, last Tuesday,
to the effect that they couldn't like it.

A CoPPERHEAD MEETING DISPERSED
The Copperheads Of I.hica, n. Y, avNiled
themselves of the presence Of circus, to get
together crowd to throw out a Mcclellan
and Peudleton flag. While the operation was
going on, the news Of the fall Of Atlanta was
received. The Ithaca JotTna! tells the rest
of the story as follows:
When the band ceased playing, Union
man stepped forward on the balcony and an
nourced the news from Atlanta, read Secre-
tary Stanton's official dispatch containing the
thrilling intelligence, and then called for
three cheers for the Union Army" The
men who had Just cheered for Mcclellan stood
appalled-dumb. Had a shell from one Of
Sherman's great guns exploded among them,
it could not have created greater consterna-
tion-nor dispersed them more suddenly.
Recovering a little from the tremendous
shock, they gave few dismal and heartrend-
ing groans for Sherman's army, and fed in
every direction, hiding in holes and corners
and burying themselves in cellars and base
ments-and in less then three minutes after
the reading Of the despatch, not Copper
head was to be seen-the meeting had van
ished, the speeches remained undelivered for
the want of an audience. This is believed to
be the latest discovery for dispensing Cop
perhead meeting. If Atlanta has had this
effect upon them, how will they stand the fall
Of Richmond:

The widows cap is kind of shroud
intimating that the wife, being one with
her husband, has, in manner, died with
him. But the etiquette of widows
mourning does not render it necessary for
her to wear weeds more than a year
though she can wear them longer. Among
the Romans year of mourning was or
dained by law for husband. The color
is meant to signify grief, which varies in
different countries. In Egypt it is vel
low, representing that Of leaves when
they fall. In Ethiopia it is brown, that
being the color of the earth, to which the
dead return. In Turkey it is blue, an
emblem Of happiness it is hoped the de.
ceased enjoys. In Europe, black, denot.

EXTRACTION OF AUR1FERoUs SILVER OUT
OF ORES IN THE LIQUID WAY.-When ores
contain alloys OF gold and silver, the ordi-
nary modes Of extraction in the liquid way,
give very unsatisfactory results, the yield
being always too low. Even the hyposul-
phites, of which such excellent use is made
in extracting silver, leave considerable por-
ton of the gold undissolved. 1t is found ne
cessary to apply first Augustin's or Ziervo-
gels methods to extract the silver, ana then
Plattner's method to obtain the gold, or the
converse; but in every case both gold and
silver remain in the residue, and it is neces-
sary to repeat the operation or to concen-
trate the residue by smelling. The explana-
ton of this is, that none Of the solvents used
hitherto are capable Of dissolving simulta-
neously the gold and silver, and there is al
WAYS formed on the surface OF the alloy
film insoluble in the agent employed. For
instance, IL chlorine water be used, part OF
the gold is dissolved, but by the formation oil
insoluble chloride OF silver, a limit 10 the ae-
ton is soon reached, and II then the chloride
of silver is dissolved in ammonia, common
salt, or a hyposulphite, there iS soon formed
a coating Of metallic gold, which protects
from action the interior parts OF the alloy.
The agent proposed for overcoming Lness
difficulties is simply concentrated s9luaon

IDAHO.

For the benefit of those persons who,
prior to the late election, declared that in
the event of the election of Lincoln and
the Abolition" ticket in this State, they
would "leave the damned hole" we would
suggest a Canaan, that stands fairly drip
ping with their sort Of milk and honey
and anxiously awaiting the coming of
just such a chivalrous crowd. 1t is
Idaho. The first great desideratttm of the
chivalrous Southern secesh and the putty
headed Northern lick-spittle, the Copper
head proper, IS the society of gentle
men," Idaho is well stocked with that
class, as they understand the definition of
the word gentleman" That is to say.
there are very few people there who work
for living; consequently our emigres
will not be contaminated by contact with
"mud-sills" and greasy mechanics"
There are great many thieves in Idaho,
in short, it may be considered in the light
of sort of Thieves Paradise. Stealing,
however, was made honorable by the ex-
ample of Floyd and others Of his kidney,
in 1851, and received the seal of approval
from Squirting Jimmy then President OF
the United States. Since that time 1.-THE
bigger thief the bigger gentleman" has
been the motto of the South and its SYM
pathizers. There will be found no lack
Of gentlemen" in Idaho. The murder
Of Abolitionists IS also q fayorite pastime
in that fair land, and is never punished
except BY the Vigilance Committee; which
being an unconstitutional body,
will afford Robinson, Dibble, TIL
ford, ct a., 6ne opportunity for the
display of their oratorical powers in lau-
dation of that sacred instrument" The
freedom Of speech" is there guaranteed
to all in the most unlimited degree. To
hurrah for JEFF Davis is not only perfectly
admissible, but is the password to good
society, immunity from assassination, and
IS the first stepping stone to Offices Of
honor and emolument. There, no Pro-
vost Marshal ru,hlessly gobbles the loQua-
c;ous "chiv" and no bags of sand curve
into deformity the vertebrae of the de-
scendants of the Huguenots. We men
ton Idaho as the most eligible point for
the proposed emigration, not only for the
superior inducements it offers as place Of
residence, but for its ready and cheap &C.
feasibility. 1t requires no capital to go
there as it does TO reach Mexico. The i'm
migration across the plains has not yet
ceased, and in the trains of belated Adolf
tionists are to be found all the means of
transportation and subsistence for the
Journey. These can be readily and most
properly confscated. The road is plainly
marked and defined by the skeletons Of
murdered men, left by former expeditions
as mile-stones and guide-posts for future
travellers. Pack your traps, gentlemen
The news of yesterday was the signal OF
departure. Nevada is no place for you;
every other free State is equally uninhabi-
table for men of your stripe, and the Con-
federacy won't do at all, for JEFF will make
YOU fight, which wouldn't agree with the
color of your liver. Idaho is your only
refuge. "Stand not upon the order Of
your going-but go :! ~
