From the Peoria Transcript.
Each year this coal is growing into favor. 1t
used to be the case that Illinois coal could
scarcely be sold in the Chicago market and even
now many of the good citizens OF Chicago OBJECT
TO iguOre il As unit for use. The dealers in the
article OF coal in that city, however, are some
what shrewed and sell large Quantities ofIlliuois
coal for Erie and Brian Hill. We venture to say
that fourhiths of BrHr Hill and Erie coal used in
Chicago dug IN Illinois, and never out
side OF the state The fact is, the shrewed Chica-
gOans believe that coal from Ohio and Peunsyl-
vania possesses qualities that Illinois coal does
not and the dealers in coal are willing to indulge
them in that belief, as long il pays. Briar
Hill and Erie coal sells from three TO four dol
lars per tor more than Illinois coa when sold rs
such OF course dealers have 10 keep amount
OF Erie and BIilr Hill coal Tor the knowing Ones
but that amount increases each time they receive
Il load OF Illinois coal, by the sorting out OF all
the hard Jumps of Illinois and mixing them judi
cously with the other coal. In this consists
the profit, and the Chicago public are none the
wiser.

God bless Abraham Lincoln r

God bless Abraham Lincoln
The signing winds reply.
God bless Abraham Lincoln
IL toiled from every spire,
God bless Abraham Linc6 In
Trembles Nations Tyre.
At every freside altar
Is felt the stroke Of Death!
And God bless Abraham Lincoln
Goes upon baby's breath
For well he loved the People,
And the People loved him well
And every heart grows sick and faint
a az a brothers knell
A million knees are Blended
On Southern plains to-day,
A million lips are quivering
With words they can not say;
A million broken voices
Fill all the troubled air,
And God bless Abraham Lincoln!
Is all their simple prayer.
Ny God humbiy thank Thee
Thou hast made this People onel
Henceforth we may not fater
Till all thy work be done!
For the naughty Rebel spir,
With lip that scorns and braves,
still walks with proud defiance
Above our Soldier graves!
No more biudgeons in the Senate,
Nor whips for women's backs,
Nor daggers for the sick room,
Nor hounds for human tracks,
No auction blocks for children,

No murderers Of Presidents

No more ~ starving prisoners,
Nor manning Of the dead,

That laid the good man low,
But God forgive the guilty band
That gave the work 70 do!
Perish forever perish,
The hand that stabs the State
Nor think 10 turn Gods lightenings
BY calling them mans hate
mourn him not, We bondmen,
Who died for you and 10,
For our great Liberator

But bless the kind death angel
That gave his soul release,
And called the great Peace maker
To go where all is Peacei

Yes, bless the kind evangel
That still would stay his wing,
Nor till the stars Sumter rose,
Would his great summons bring
But when the rose w reathed banner

And now the hilsides burst with flowers,
And the birds in the groves rejoice,
