LINCOLN'S VIEWS.

Let the negro-suErage and negro-equaT-
ity Radical party hear what Abraham
Lincoln said on tho iayorite points of their
political creed: 81
81 viii say, then, that am not, ner
eveehaVe been, in favor bringing about,
in any way, tho social and political equal
ity of the white and black races-that
am not, nor ever have been, in favor of
making voters or jurors out of fnegrcs; nor
of qualifying them to hold Office; nor to
intermarry with white people and viii
say in addition to this that there is
physical difference between the white
aud black races, which l believe viii for
ever forbid the two races living together
on terms of political and social equality,
And inasmuch as they connot SO live,
while they do remain together there must
be the position of superior and inferior,
and I, much as any other man, am in fa-
vor of having the position assigned to the
white race. Speech, of Abraham Lin>
coin.
In another speech Mr.. Lincoln said I;
81 have no purpose to introduce polit>
ical or social equality between the white
and the black races. There is physic-
al difference between the two, which, in
my judgment, will probably forever forbid
their living together upon the footing of
perfect equality; and inasmuch as it be-
comes necessity that there must be diff
ference, I am in favor of having the supe.
rior position Abraham Lincoln.

JOSH BILLINGS ON RATs.-Rats orig
inally cum from Norway, and wish they
had originally stayed thar.
They are as uncalled for as pain in
the small of the back
They can be domestieated dreadful easy
that is as far as getting in cupboards and
eating cheese and knawing pie is con-
cerned.
The best way to domesticate them that
I ever saw is to surround them gently
with steel trap, you can reason with
them then to great advantage.
Rats are migratorious they migrate
when eyer they have mind to.
Pizen is also good for rats; it softens
their nature.
Rats hate cats-and cats hate rats
and who don't?
I suppose that there are bctween fifty
and sixty million of rats in America
I quote now only from memory-and /
don't suppose there is single necessary
rat in the whole lot. This shows at q
glance how many waste rats there is
Rats enhance in number faster than
shoe pegs do by machinery. One pair of
healthy rats is all that any man wants to
start the business with, and in ninety
days, without any outlay he will begin to
have rats to turn off.
Rats, viewed from any platform that
you can build, are unspeakably cussid.
