A Noble Benefaction.

The Trustees of the Louisville Medical
College louisville, KY have created one
of tho most liberal and noble bcncfactions
ever conferred by public institution upon
any people. The trustees of this college have
instituted one Beneficiary Scholarship for
and surrounding States. BY this. means very
many poor but deserving young men will be
enabled to obtain thorough medical cduca-
ton. Any young man wishing to take ad.
vaptage of this Benefaction has only to write
to tho Representative Of the Congressional
Dstrict in which he resides, or to the Prcsi
dent of the Medical Society of his State, or
to DR.. e. S. GAILLARD, Dean Of tho Faculty
of the Louisville Medical College, Louisville,
KY, when he will receive full information of
all that is necessary for him to do to secure
one of these Scholarships. With proper and
welcome delicacy the names Of those who
have secured the Beneficiary Scholarships
will be known only to the Dean of the Facul-
ty It is unnecessary to commend those who
have established these noble Beneficiary
Scholarships. Their act will bring them
commendation wherever it is known.

LINCOLN AND SLAy ERY THE negroes of
the South have been taught by their new
masters (thc carpet. baggcrs) to believe that
the "NIartyred President" mnde the late war
on the South to emancipates them for their
own good. We have, in thesfollowing letter
from Mr.. Lincoln, the proof that this is a
falsehood. 1t appears in fac sin,ac of his
letter to Mr.. a. Ii. Stephens of Georgia, in
the second volume of the constitutional histo-
ry of the latter. It is as follows:
FOR YOUR OWN EYES ONLY
SPRINGFIELD, ILL, Dec. 22, 1860.
Hon. Il. II. Stephens:
My DEAR SIR: Your obligng answer to
my snort note is just received, and for which
please accept my thanks. fully appreciate
the present peril the country is in, aud the
weight Of responsibility OH me. Do the peo.
pie of the South really entertain fears that "a
Republican administration would, directly or
indirccily, interfere with the slave, or with
them about the slaves? If they do, wish
to. .sssure you, as once friend, and still,
hope, not an enemy, that there is no cause
for such fears. The South would be in no
more danger in this respect than it was in
the days of Washington. / suppose, how.
ever, this does not meet tho case. You :hink
slavcfy is right and ought to be extended
while We think it is wrong and ought to be
restricted. That, | suppose, is the rub 1t
certainly is the only substantial difference be-
tween US. Yours, very truly,
a. LINCOLN.

Thirty acres of cotton will average; 900 lbs

Capt. Crayton is also preparing to manufac-

our upper country will soon rival the green
