leads Us to occasionally preserve some
choice specimens of native talent which We
find in the Copperhead papers, which might
otherwise too soon perish in oblivion. We
have already copied one or two gems from
the Marshall ErpOuader. That elegant
writer is now trying his hand at drawing
portraits OF men infinitely greater than HIM
self; and here is the perOratiOu OF a dis
course upon Lincoln. We think il very
fine. When the people have considered

a Scotch cap and cloak, and through the
prayers of those he has made fools OF. and
