We believe 1t is admitted that the
primal source of the mental calamity in
the case of Mrs. Lincoln, can be traced
to the act of the assassin, that at once
deprived her of beloved husband, and
our country of its honored President.
A more robust organization, together
with the fortitude, perhaps, and habits
of self.reliance, developed by our simple
Western manners, enabled her longer to
resist the progress of the destroyer, and
delay the coming of the melancholy end.
But that mind, with all its powers OF en-
durance, had to succumb at last. A
like feeling of sorrow and compassion
will everywhere arise at the thought OF
the solitary void that must henceforth
,enshroud her earthly being.

A FLORIDA DAWN.

The moon Is low in the sky,
And a sweet south wind is blowing :.
Where the berganot blossoms breathe and Ill
In the 0rchai d's scented showing;
But the stars are few and scattered Lie
Where the sinking moon is going.
With love-sweet ache strain
OF the nights delicious fiuting
Stirs in the heart, with as sweet q pain
AS the flower feels in fruting,
And the soft air breathes a breath Of rain
Over buds and tendrils shooting.
For the sweet night faints and dies
Like tile blush when love contesscs
Its passion dusk to the checks and eyes
Aud dies in It's sweet distresses,
And the radiant mystery ills the skies
OF possible happiness.
IT'LL the sun breaks out on sheaves
And mouths Of pink perfume,
Where the milky bergamot slakes. its leaves;
And the rainbows ribbon bloom.
or the soft gray mist Of the morning, Weaves
A rose in the roses loom.
The fog, like great white cloth,
Draws out Of the orchard and corn,
And melts away in u film of froth
Like the milk spray on the thorn;
And out of her chambers blush and loath,
Like bride comes the girlish morn.
The star. (Cincinnati [Ohio]) 1874-1875, 1875-06-02

DR.. LINDERMAN will be in this city in
about week or ten days, Tor the pur.-
pose of acquainting himself with the ad-
yantages Cincinnati can present as a
location for the new branch mint. The
assertion that the appointment of d..
Linderman to make this selection means
Chicago as the site we do not believe
does justice to either the President or
DR.. Linderman himself. The latter is a
most competent and reliable official. He
fully understands the requirements OF
the task that has been imposed upon
aim, and will perform it in letter and
spirit as contemplated by the act of Con-
gress under which he is appointed. The
cry that this appointment was made in
the interest Of Chicago was started in
that city, and has no meaning beyond an
effort to SO impress other cities as to
prevent them from taking suchsan inter.
est in the matter as they otherwise
would.
