Liacoln's reign. Ia this city after
she transaction Of business with the
Departments I have taken occasion to
visit the public grounds and buildings
Of the Federal Capital. Their very
nagnifcenee aside from al other con-
siterasipns would seem t. Justify al
most any sacrifice that the American
people may be called upon to make 10

This war like oil others must come
to "a end. This great truth seems
to be forcing itsslf upon the attention
Of the President. The runors that
Fraace, Great Britain, and Spain will,

Mr Lincoln as pres. dent Of those states

seems to he giving intensity to the
general feeling for peace and usion up
on just and liberal terms. That Mr.
Lincoln should share in this general
anxiety is bu. reasonable. Already
