THE MEMORY OF ABRAHAM LIN.



On the 18th day Of April, 1885, the joy which
filled every patriotic heart, on account of the
great victories vouchsafed TO the Union arms
by which the military power of the rebellion
was annihilated, was suddenly merged in grief
and horror at the astounding intelligence that
our great and good President ABRAHAM LIN
colin, had been foully assassinated, at the verv
moment when his heart was filled with marcy
and loving Kindness towards those who had so
Ia'eIy sought to destroy the Government
none VINO witnessed the effect of that intelli-
genee on the loyal millions Of the nation can
ever forget the gloom which covered the land,
as with pail, snd the spontaneous manifesto
uons OF respect and affection to the martyred
patriot which were exhibited on every hand
Every recurrence of day so memorable in
the Nations annals, should awaken in all
American hearts holy memories OF the public
worth and private virtues of the illustrious
dead, and resolves 10 initiate him, not only in
his stern and unfiinching patriotism but in
the engaging qualities of child like Simplicity
and faith IN the triumph OF right, which char
aCterized him. and made him the object of the
tender love and reverence of the American
people. But his fame rests not with tins coun-
tEy or age In every country and in all times
whenever and wherever the everlasting strug-
gle between right and wrong good and evil,
freedom and tyranny goe. on, there will the
name OF the pure patriot and good man, ABRA-
HAM LINCOLN, be held in respect. as the ex-
ponent of republican principles, and the cham
pIon of the people.
