Scene AT THE DEATH-BED OF Mr..
LINCoLN.-At Carlisle, Pa, recently,
the Presbyterian synods ofthe old and
new schools being in session at the
same place, the two bodies met III com
munion with great harmony. Rev.
DR.. Gurley, pastor Of the church in
Washington which President Lincoln
usually attended, in a speech at the
table. gave the following narrative,
which has never before been made
public:
When summoned on that sad night
to the death-bed Of President Lin
coin. | entered the room fifteen or
twenty minutes before his departure.
All present were gathered anxiouSly
around him, waiting to catch his last
breath. The physician, with one
hand upon the pulse of the dying man,
and the other hand laid upon his heart,
was intentIv watching for the moment
when life should cease. He fingered
longer than we had expected. At
last the physician said: ale is gone ;
he is dead" Then solemnly believe
that for four or five minutes there
was not the slightest noise or move
ment in that awful presence. We all
stood transfxed in our positions
specifies, GREATNESS, around the
dead body Of that great and good
man. At length the secretary Of war
who was standing at my left, broke
the silence and said: doctor, will
you say anything ?" Ireplied, Il will
speak to God" Said he, "Do it Just
now" And there, by the side Of Oul
fallen chief, God put it into my heart
to utter this petition, that from thai
hour we and the whole nation NIGH
become more than ever united in oul
devotion to the cause Of our beloved
imperiled country. When | ceased
= there arose from the Ii ps of the en-
, tire company fervid and spontaneou.
I amen" And has not the whole
, heart Of the loyal nation responded
J amen p Was not that prayer, ther,
offered, responded to in a most re
|, markable manner? When in our histo
ry have the people of this land beer
5 found more closely bound together il
= purpose and heart than when the tele
! graphic wires bore all over the coun
Y try the sad tidings that President Lin
, coin was dead ?"
