Those Who witnessed Lincoln's first
Inauguration viii not soon forget one
little scene which then occurred The
President-elect came forward upon the
platform prepared at the east front of
the Capitol, with his natural awkward
ness increased by the momentous cir
cumstances of the occasion, and by a
gorgeous wardrobe, in which it was
evident he felt exceedingly uncomfort-
able. The stiff dress coat, vest and
pantaloons of black broadcloth, were
enough Of themselves tn disturb his
mental and physical equanimity, but to
these were added other membranes,
in the shape of brand new silk hat and
a ponderous gold-headed cane. The
cane he managed to put away in a cor
ner. but the disposition Of the hat per-
picked him gres.ly. 1t was too good to
throw away; too nice, as he thought, to
rest upon the rongh boards. 50, for
minute at least poor Lincoln stood
there in the gaze of assembled thou
sands, grasping his hat desperately. and
seeking in vain for = safe place to de-
post it Douglas, who sat immediately
IN the rear. saw the embarrassment Of
his rival. and rising, took the shining
beaver from its sorely bothered owner,
and held ii during delivery Of the inaug-
ural address- II Is doubtful whether.
i've yean previous, Stephen A. Douglas
ever dreamed that he was destined to
hold the hat of Abraham Lincoln while
that individual was appearing the first
time - President Of the United States.-

STATE SOVEREIGNTY.

An interesting suit has just been de-
cided by the Supreme Court of the
United States which involves the whole
question Of State sovereignty. Two res
idents Of Danbwy, Conn, gave ss,Oc
bonds for IN express robber named Nc
CURE in 1884 Soon alter, the man vas
in Maine for fifteen years for
burglary. Claiming that they we're pre-
vented from presenting the person of the
criminal for trial only by an "act Of
law" the bondmen refused to pay, and
the State Of Connecticut brought suit
to recover the amount Of the forfeited
bail The Supreme Court Of Errors Of
the State held unanimously that, as the
States are independent and sovereign
Connecticut 10 not bound to heed the
acts Of Maine. The sureties, hOwever'
maintained that NEG was taken from
this State ON . requisiti0n from the
Governor Of another, under provision
of TIE Federal Constitution, which was
the supreme law Of the land. The Su-
preme Court Of the United States wa
almost evenly divided on the question

has, accordingly, recovered from Nc
Guire's bondsmen $500, with interest.

How A PROMINENT BUSINESS NAN
WENT TO RUIN


II is but . few years since, says the
Chicago Journal, that the house Of Ben
nett Pietes 4 Co.. wholesale liquor
dealers, and proprieton Of the " Red
Jacket Bitters. stood high among our
best known. most enterprising and re-
sponxible firms. In almost every paper
Of the country their advertisements were
10 be seen. Mr.. Peters was q man Of
fine abilities, and besides being shrevd
and successful in business, he was pos
sessed Of superior scholarly attainments.
His home was among the most elegant
and refined in the city, adorned in the
most chaste and beautiful manner, and
gracefully presided over by his wife, an
estim>ble. accomplished Lady. While
in the fun tide of prosperity. with wealth
pouring in upon him. Peters fell. He
could not resist the temptation offered
by the demon concealed beneath the
rosy hue of the wine cup. and his i'm
agination was heightened and his brain
exhilerated by the sparkling champagne
or his own bitters. The high reputation
of his firm began to feel the effects of
his downward course, and finally came
the crash. Peters was ruined he
struggled vainly for . time, but the
power Of the fiend with which he had SO
long tempered was too great and nerve
less, and INCREASINGLY he was hurried to
the contamination Of his career His
elegant home soon followed his business
house rich and valuable presents made
to his family were swallowed up in the
general ruin, or went to crafty still
more his unceasing thirst for drink,
until at last he and they were homeless
and well nigh friendless. A few months /.
since he enlisted in the United States |
service as private soldier, and is now
with his regiment somewhere on the |
great plains of the West His broken
hearted wife has filed a petition for q !
legal separation from him, alleging that |
she has been reduced to utter poverty |
and misery through her husbands love
Of Intoxicating drink. The story of her |
is indeed heart-rending, and
if anything were yet needed to urge on \
the friends of temperance and reform it
would be found in the terrible fate of /
Peters and his innocent family.
