SOMEBODY writes from Cali
fornia that 1t is a hard place for
the poor man and laborer there
at the present time. Taxes
are oppressive, the price OF
most commodities exorbitanl,
crime abundant, and the courts
corrupt. Has Democratic rule
in that State, any thing to do
with this decentralization.

Lr.vCOL.,-S RELIGIOES BELIEF

Mr.. Herndon, the old law partner of Mr..
Lincoln at Springfield, ILL.,, contributes to
the Index OF Toledo, Ohio, full and
doubtless very reliable account Of Tic re-
ligious views Of Mr.. Lincoln. Tho history
Of his religious growth is shown to be that
Of cree thinker" ir,m the beginning at
one time, 1885, he wrote a small book on
intidelity, which was ian attack upon the
i. 4Os4..sis r-i.t.s,....t,, ..-.ss .,s-
ialy upon the idea that jesus wus tic
Christ, the true and only bogcuon Son OF
God, as the Christian world contend" But
friend, failing ~ Ior uf dc him not to
print it, and fearing that it would be an Oh
stacle to his popularity as rising politi-
tian, snaIoLod tic manuscript from him
Jne dry, aud ohuckcd ii into tie flaming
ire. Mr.. Herndon contnues:-
From what l know of Mr.. Lincoln, and
rom what have heard and verify believe
can say First, that he did not believe in
asrecial creation, his iGca being that all
.reation was an evolution unGor law sec
indy, he did not believe that the Bible
was special revelation from God, us tho
Christian world contend; thirdly, he did
not believe in miracles, as understood by
the Christian world iouIthly, he believed
in universal inspiration and miracles un.
der law; filthy, he did not believe that
Jesus was the Christ, the son Of God, as the
Christian world contend; sixthly, he be-
lieved that all things, both matter and
mind, were governed by laws, universal
absolute, and eternal. He held many OF
the Christian ideas in adherence, and
among them there was this one, namely,
that God would forgive a violation of his
laws. Lincoln maintained that God could
not forgive; that punishment has to follow
the sin; that Christianity was wrong in
teaching forgiveness; that it tended to
make man sin in the hope that God would
excuse, and so forth. Lincoln contended
that the minister should teach that God has
affixed punishment for sin, and that no re-
pentance could brbe him to remit 1t. In
one sense of the word, Mr.. Lincoln was a
universalist, and in another sense he was
Unitarian; but lie was Theist as we now
understand that word. He believed in God
and in Immortality, as well as heavcn-a
place; he believed in no hell and no pun
ishment in the future world.

instead OF playing at eggs-in-a-bush by
