Can it be possible that this astute writer
never heard of the Hon. r. G. Parsons
who was t~riumphantly elected Speaker
lat Columbus) by a large majority of the
representatives Of Ohio? Can he also be
ignorant of the fact that that good judge
of mankind, "our Martyr President
post as one of his honOred and trusty am
bsssadors? HMr. Parsons really was the
great unknown and insignificant man
that his opponents wish to represent him
TO be, would that great statesman, tried
patriot and upright Judge, Salmon p.
Chase, honor him with his intimate friend
ship 1 trow not.
A great deal has been said about the
Cleveland postmaster. 1t appears Judge
Spalding took an active part in the re-
moval of the late postmaster. Surely,
then, the Judge, 10 be consistent, will
cheerfully give way 10 his successor, espe-
cially as said successor is eminently well
qualified to fill the expected vacancy.
Verify, Mr.. Spalding and his supporters
appear to have NJ idea of "the rule that
works both ways"
l believe l can state without fear of
contradiction that Mr.. Parsons courteous
department and upright character have
won for him the respect of all his neigh
bors-all whose good opinion is entitled
TO the slightest respect. l think there can
be no reasonable doubt that our candidate,
Mr.. Parsons, will get the nomination and
be triumphsntly elected.

An Important Letter from President
IinPOIn-


Mr.. Mcpherson, Clerk of the House of
Representatives, makes public the follow
ing dispatch from Mr.. Lincoln, sent to
General Weitzel in April of last year:
"OFFICE UNITED STATES MILITARY
TELEGRAPH, WAR DEPARTMENT.
WASHINGTON, d. c., April u, 1866.
MAJOR General Weit5el, Richa,ond, Va:
1 have just seen Judge CampbelIs let
ter 10 you of the 18th. He assumes, as ap-
pears to me, that 1 have called the insur-
gent Legislature of Virginia together, as
the rightful Legislature of the State, to
settle all differences with the United
States. l have done no such thing. 1
spoke of them not as a Legislature, but as
the gentlemen who acted as the Legisla-
ture of Virginia in support of the rebel
lion l did this on purpose to exclude
the assumption that l was recognizing
them as a rightful body. 1 dealt with
them as men having power dc facto to do
a specific thing, to-wit To withdraw the
Virginia troops, and other support from
resistance to the General Government,
for which, in the paper handed by Judge
Campbell, l promised a specific equiva-
lent, to-wit: A remission TO the people
of the State, except in certain cases, the
contiscation of their property. l meant
this, and no more. Inasmuch, however,
as Judge Campbell m~isconstrues this, and
is still pressing for an armistice, contrary
to the explicit statement of the paper 1
gave him, and particularly since General
Grant has captured the Virginia troops, so
that giving 4 consideration for their with
drawal is no longer applicable, let my let
ter TO you, and the paper to Judge Camp
bell, both be withdrawn or countermand-
ed, and he be notified of it. Do not allow
them to assemble but if any have come
allow them safe return to their homes.

The CongressionaI Questiop.

To the Editor Of the CeUelGnd Leader
deem it my'duty to send you some OF
the reasons that have induced me to take
an active part in supporting that true and
well-tried patriot and able speaker, Mr..
Parsons, at the approaching Congressional
nomination. 1 mast confess l was at one
time undecided as t which of the two
candidates l should vote for, as l cousid-
cred either of them would be a represent
alive that any constituency might be
proud TO have
But after the ungenerous and insulting
way that Mr.. Parsons is spoken of by the
active supporters of Judge Spalding, I
can no longer hesitate as to which gentle
man 1 ought to support, and 1 have good
reason to believe that many Of my neigh
bors entertain similar sentiments.
If the Judge has no discreeter friends
than Kirkland" he has good reason to
pray that he may be protected from his
friends This great "Solon from Kirt-
land thus discourseth:
"If Lake car shut his eyes to the over
whelming testimony in favor of Richard
c. Parsons, an untried man, the embodi-
ment of all the qualifications of q Con
gressman-with allthe advantages claimed
for long service in the House-the con-
clusion is inevitable that he has an in
tuitive vision beyond the common lot of
mortsls, and that the said re. Parsons
is a prodigy of legislative skill"

A gentleman connected with the tele-
graph expedition in Siberia, writes a let
ter to a friend in in Cincinnati, giving
some interesting facts. He says he has
slept out doors with a few wild, wander
ING horaks when the mureury was frozen
at AS below zero, and many a night have
l passed on my dog sledge, with no COW
ering but the dark blue Polar sky, with a
temperature of 25o and 800 below zero.
He speaks Of a woman, a handsome one
too, about twenty-five years of age who
drove a tesm of ~reindeers with a loaded
sledge fifty versts in one day, and at
night slept out in tie snow, with no COW
erlng except the clothes she had worn
during the day, and in a temperature 430
below zero or 80 below the freezing
point"
