FIRE number Of times, but would beg you
all TO believe me as telling the truth, when I
say that my heart never beat faster than il
does now on the present occasion. President
Lincoln gave me a commission two yoars ago,
as msiosgeneral, to 6ght, not to speak, and
would beg 10 be excused on that account,
from saving anything further in bis presence.
President Lincoln remarked that he might
probably soon get up big fght for him.
[ 1t had not been :ascertainsd up'to late
hour last night, whether the President intend.
ed the above remark for "joke" or = eonen-
drum.
The general continued his remarks, stating
that all understood the proceeds Of the Fair
we're for the benefit Of the soldiers Of the ar
my Of the Union. None knew how gratefully
the brave men in the field and in the hospital,
would receive the bounty of the citizsns Of
Maryland II was as difficult to tell of the
soldiers gratitude, a. il was TO tell Of his tr-
umphs or sorrowS No lip could express it,
There are two classes Of soldiers friends
those who befrieud the living and the we'll, and
those who care for the sick, the wounded, and
the dying TWAS not for him to say il, but he
thought all could tell for themselves who were
the most worthy Of blessings and reward here
after, and who would be the most likely to re-
oeive such. The General concluded by hoping
the President would excuse him for talking so
long in his presence and retired amid ap-
plause.
Gen. Wallace must entertain badly ever
grown idea ofthe superlative majesty of the
old driveler Lincoln, that be should ask to be

AuOther Reign OF Terror.

Preparations are being made by the
leaders Of Abolitionism to crowd the peo-
ple once more We knew it when we
saw that the Governors were at Washing
ton. Another election is coming. The
presidency is to be contended for from now
until fall. Mr.. Lincoln is objectionable
to a large mass of his own party, and
cannot receive the nomination as matters
now stand; and if nominated is not sure
of an election. These are the grounds and
no other that prompt the present stories Of
conspiracies. Another reign of terror is
to be inaugurated. Martial law is to be
declared. Under pretense Of reasonable
conspiracies, the people are everywhere te
be subjected TO the military.
This thing mas about played out. The
temper of the people is hardly in a cOndi'
ton to bear such OppresHOns as Keith put
upon us here; and the way to create con.
spiracies in earnest and of formidable
character is to act as the abolition lsadeni
now threaten. Let them beware. We
say again let them beware before they
make tbs administration of the country
50 utterly unbearable that all other evil'
will be small in comparison with quis
submission. There is no conspiracy
against the country, except in the president
ial chair and in the councils of the nation
We say sgain to those in power, let then
beware how they triAe with people al
