ABsaHAx LINCOLN A. \. TALxxR.-ln the
February number Of Hdyper's xa0ostae =
writer, in giving sketchss u S4Dd tahas,"
thus alludes to the late President:
iisnI hold that the best conversstionalist
amons statesmen of orr own day. was AHA,
ham Lincoln. This epinion maj. possibly be
coptrovertea BY those Who would think only
Of an apparent swkwardness Of manner, and
an occasional violation Of the rules Of polite
society. But II our conversation should have
for its object the promotion Of the welfare OF
those with whom We talk; If it should be
tlled with truth, with kindness, with encour.
agepent, With consolatips; if D true MN
should swSy 81 ths influence ofspseeA-wAy
then, tried By this simple sta1dard, the late
President Lincoln WA In excellent conversa-
tionalist. His total abstinence from dis
play Of egotism, his startling sense, his varied
information, his tersensss Of expression, his
kruthfulness, his honesty his vast good ma
lure, his smothss-w wit, his immense fund of
anacdote for illustration, his adaptation of
him self To al companies--these made him
one Of the best sos;el takers Of our times.
Thus has Emerson ths 6saet gnsintiy, bat
Justly, said Of him, after speaking Of bis
manner: He is the author OF multitude OF
good sayings, % disguised a. pleasantries,
that it is certain they had no reputation at
first but as jests; and only leter, by the very
acceptance and adoption they find in the
mouths Of millions, turn out to be the wis
dom Of the honr, ! am sure If this man had
ruled in period Of lees facility of printing
be would have become NEUROLOGICAL in very
few years, like Esop or Pilpay, Or ons Of ~
Seven Wise Masters, BY his fables and pro.
verbs Lincoln was thus one o. the few men
who swayed BY the influence of speech in
common conversation"

IOWA ITEMS.

The Hawkeye says that the recent meeting
in Burlington in behalf of the Burlington and
Cedar Rapids Railroad was not largely a.
tended, but there was much enthusiasm for
the project.
The Dubuque Times says of the freshets in
Northern Iowa:
Nearly every year this region is made to
suffer from freshets. This year they have
come upon us earlier than usual. The heavy
fall of snow Of two weeks ago has been melted
by sun aud rain until the creeks and rivers in
the interior have become torrents which have
rushed over their banks, and, in many sec
tons, flooded the low country. The rain on
Tuesday night, which was but respectable
shower here, was furious storm from Dy-
ersville west, and the consequences were seen
all along the line of the Dubuque and Sioux
City Railroad yesterday. Low prairies re-
no uncomfortable size. The Catfish creek
has overfowed its banks, and is wandering
about Rockdale very loosely, filling cellars
and almost making ferry necessary for the
road.
But perhaps the greatest damage in this
vicinity has occurred at Dyersville. The
| south fork of the Maquoketa has nearly
| reached the high water mark of two years
ago, and rusbes madly where it pleases.
Yesterday forenoon the ice and water together
| carried away the long wagon bridge west Of
the village, and swept away the mill dam.
The bridge was about two hundred feet long.
The loss is heavy one, as the erection of a
new brNge will cost large sum Of money.
The damn was rebuilt after the freshet OF
| two years Sgo. The replacing it will make
large holm in the income OF the mill pro.
prietor.
At Manchester, the Maquoketa was pour.
ing over its banks in several places when the
train passed. Happily it can do but little
damage thereabouts, save to fences on low
grounds.
| AT Waterloo and Cedar Falls, the Cedar
river was very high and constantly rising.
/ At Iowa Falls, the water was four feet deem
on the ice in Iowa river, which was breaking
up. The wide gorge was filling rapidly with
rushing water and ice. South of Iowa Falls
considerable damage must result.
| AT Galena, the Galena river rose to high
point, and caused considerable destruction Of
property.
