A SHREwD ANSWERING do not re
collect to have seen the following anec-
Ciote of Mr.. Lincoln befere.s 1t is a
good specimen of the peculiar incisive-
ness of his intellect. He was waited
on by a committee of Republican Sen
ators to urge upon him the absolute ne
cessity of concurrence, on the part of
every member of his Cabinet, with the
President in the principles and policy
of his administration. Mr.. Lincoln
withheld any expression of his own
sentiments, but said there was one
question he wished each Senator TO
consider carefully and TO answer to his
own conscience-and that was this /:
'You urge" said he, "the importance
of having each member of my Cabinet
agree tCith me; but are you not really
the most anxious that should have a
Cabinet every member of which will
agree sCith you3" When they were
prepared to answer this question he
begged them TO come back, and he
would give them another interview. II
agreement with him was what they
really wanted, that was already Sc
cured. The committee did not return.

GREASE THE WHEELs.-Oil and black
lead is supposed to be the best sub
stance, but we have always found lard
and -four apparently as good. If the
wheels are kept well fabricated, very
little difference will be found between
the ease of running wooden and iron
axles in ordinary farm work. The
smaller the axle, the less will always
be the friction, other things being equal,
because the spokes have greater pur-
chase. the friction being the resisting
force. and being nearer the end of the
lever when the axle is small.

If the President says that now, and
stands by it, we do not see why there
should be any further clashing between
his policy and that of Congress, or how
he can avoid reconciliation and coop
Grafton with the Union majorities of
both Houses of Congress. Reconciled
upon the basis OF that amendment, the
President with Congress can carry all

ties, and obtain for the Nation the best

that is worthy only Of w6rshipper Of
Moloch. lie wants another war, and he
would have the Southern people utterly
exterminated by FIRE and slaughter, and
their lands appropriated for the benefit OF
others. He says he would have the in

the first to do the killing" the second to
carry ere and do the "burning,n and the
third to partition out the lands to the in.
vaders The telegraph says the sentiment
was received with cheers The monster
of cruelty would have the Southern peo-
pie murdered and their houses and all
they have reduced to smouldering heaps
of blackened cinderss lie would delight
to see women and children, the infirn
and the aged. flying in terror and alarm
from burning buildings, and falling down

from which no sounds should be heard
but the moaning of slaughtered victims
and tapping of yultures' wings, and the
howl Of wild beasts seeking their prey
And this he would call peace This il

Times Hnre Changed.

A few shors months ago, large party
in the North made the welkin ring with
their argument that the Administration
is the Government.
Times have changed.
A brief spell in the past they said that
to denounce the President was as great =
crime as treason.
A short period ago, Andrew johnson
was proclaimed by these men one of the
purest patriots and greatest statesmen
that ever lived.
Times have changed.
A brief spell in the past VIC are told
that the Union was made to be perpetual.
and that to preserve it was worth any
sacrifice that could be made.
Times have changed.
A short period ago it was proclaimed
that the war was waged solely for the per-
petuation of the Union, and when this
was accomplished the States were to have
all their rights unimpaired.
Times have changed.
A brief spell in the past the negro was
looked upon as an inferior race, unfit for
social and political rights with the white
man.
Times have changed
A short period ago the Republican par
ty denied that its object was to force ne
gro suffrage upon the people.
Times have changed.
A few years ago the Constitution was
respected, our rulers were honest men,
and patriots, the laws were obeyed, gold
and silver was the currency of the nation,
our expenses were light, North and South
regarded one another as brethren, we did
not require the services of mighty ar.
my and navy, and all the people lived in
happiness together.
Times have changed.
A few years ago statesmen like CLAY
and Webster, on the Wing side, and Ben
ton, Cass, Douglas and Wright, on the
Democratic, were in Congress, and di-
rected the law-making power of the ma
tion.
Times have changed.
In fact, look in what direction we NAV.
the studious man cannot fail to be inn
pressed with the astonishing manner in
which times have changed. What was
once thought evil and dangerous, is now
considered the perfection of wisdom and
public virtue. Whether the changes
have been for the advantage of the peo-
pie, we leave for the future to disclose.
