CHICAGO, May 20.-Yesterday after
moon Mrs. Abraham Lincoln, wife Of the
}amented Abraham Lincoln, who has for
some time shown unmistakable evidence
pf insanity, was taken into Court to be
duly examined according to law. The
sad fact Was very apparent that her
mind was wandering, and she will, with
out delay, be taken to some quiet retreat
for the Insane.
|. Very many stories are quietly circu-
Ilating in regard TO her eccentricity, and
in the circle wherein her unfortunate
condition is known there is a. general
feeling of sorrow that the Wife of the
great President has lost her reason.
Robert Lincoln was with his mother in
court, and is doing all within his power
to render her comfortable and provide
j1or her future wants.
The American Tract Society held its

The statistics OF European railways
have brought out some Very curious
facts. They show that the risk OF per-
son losing his life In rail car is less
than being struck by lightning, or be-
ing hanged; and that a passenger shoot-
ing along at the rate Of seventy1two
miles an heur-a speed which their ex-
press trains make-is more secure from
bodily injury than pedestrian in a
crowded city, or q GENTLE
man driving Ills carriage on. a
country road. French statistics show
that stage.coach riding is fifty times as
dangerous as as.traveling BY rail. No other
mode OF travelling is SO safe as that by
rail; in fact, it is little safer than stay
ing at home and going about ones regu-
lar business. In Prussia 1t requires the
transportation of twenty-five million
persons before one is killed, and four
million before one is injured. ON stage
coaches In France, one passenger in
300, 1893 is killed, and one IN 29,S71 is in.
,jured.

The Rev. DR.. Bartol, of Boston, gave
expression to these emphatic views on
Sunday last when referring to the case
of Jesse Pcmeroy: "If we would have
no monsters about US in the community,
let not idiots or insane palr, or scrofu-
,lous or consumptires, those soaked in
alcohol or conceived in lust, entering the
world diseased in body and mind, or
overweighted with any propensity or
passion, be allowed to marry, any more
than we would have a nursery for wolves
and bears, or cultivate poisonous Ivy,
deadly night shade, or apple-iern in the
enclosures OF our houses, our yards and
fields. Society, by righteous custom, ii
not by statue law, has right to pre-
vent, to forbid the multiplication of
monstr0us specimens of humanity. That,
mewling, punking, drooling, waiting
