The Late senator Wnde's Opinion o
Mrs. Lincoln.

The Late senator Wnde's Opinion OF
Mrs. Lincoln.
From Mack's letter TO the Cincinnati Com
mercial
During our conversation, the subject
of Mrs. Lincoln and her recent disgrace
full conduct CAME up, and remembering
that Mr.. Wade was one of q committee
appointed by the two Houses to inves-
tigate the pecuniary condition in which
Mr.. Lincoln's family was left, and report
n bill for their relief, asked him if it
was true, as stated by Mrs. Lincoln, that
Mr.. Lincoln left little or no property be-
hind him. "No," said he, sits id
lie. We looked into the matter very
carefully. The Illinois men wanted us
to give her one hundred thousand dol
lars, and we agreed TO do SO, if it ap-
pcared that she really needed it. We
sent for the administrator of the estate,
and lie testified that Mr.. Lincoln left
seventy five thousand dollars in Govern
ment bonds, or something like that, be-
sides some little productive property in
Springfield, Illiuois-in all about one
hundred thousand dollars. We thought,
thea, that twenty-five thousand dollars
would be enough; the same as was paid to
the widow OF General Harrison. Mrs.
Lincoln was very well off, and didn't
need what she got. She took hundred
boxes of something or other-I don't
know what-away with her, and the
Commissioner OF Public Buildings
swOrc there were fifteen other boxes
that she wanted 10 carry off, and he had
TO interfere to prevent her. At any
rate, she cleaned out the White House.
| didn't know but she was going to run
big hotel, with all she carried Oil"
