" "There is no Abraham Lincoln Presiden.
now" said Mr.. vallandigham in his Keu,uckv
speech ValIandigham is about right. What
followed msst have heightened the effect Of his
e1ultatious.S = "Give It to-. him ~ (meanipe
Lincoln) shouted one Of the rebel crowd. We
have an idea that they and vaIlandigham did
"give it to him." and that be died Of it. That
is why Abraham Lincoln is not President and
Andrew johnson is.
u The Atlantic cable, from the point where
II leaves valentia Island, to the spot where it
was landed at Hearts Content, is precisely
1866 miles in length. It's queer coincidence
that it should have been perfected this year.
p Touching the prospect 10 Pennsylvsnis,
the Philadelphia Press (Col. Forney) says after
q short trip through the Western part of the
State, that the skies look even brighter there
than in the Eastern, and in the East the signs
are that the Republicans will gain one or two
members Of Congress.

p Colorado gave Democratic majority Of
I,l59 in November, 1866, for Congressman and
DemOcraLlC mQl0rltV

at all strange, therefore, if i. had elected the
t Johnson candidate this year, as all the Demo-
cratic and johnson factions were united upon
one Candidate. That they we're beaten. shows

weakened the party-just as it will elsewhere.
