June 2nd, '73, was fabricated. Coun-

in support of the admission Of witness

Mrs. Lincoln's mental condition
in unimproyed. She remains in the in
sane asylum at Batavia, ILL.,, where she
has careful attendance, and is often
visited by her relatives. Although she
dresses shabbily, her mind is constantly
occupied with plans of new clothing.
A friend who saw her there recently
saysl ''She has shook hands with me at
parting, thought j could preceive' in
the diplomatic bow and smile a return
OF the old society manner and my heart
was full for the woman who sat down
silent aud alone in her solitary room, to
keep imaginary company with Senators
and Ambassadors. 1t has been urged
that this is development of her life
among Spiritualisst, but 1t is the result
OF scenes photographed on the brain,
which only the age of death can erase
Mrs. Lincoln did spend several months
at st. Charles, in this State, under an
assumed name, and in the company of
a society OF Spiritualists; but II will
never be definitely know how much
their influence had to do with her
eclipse Of reason.

Cold weather.

To the Editors Of the Chronicle;
have two letters from Michigan,
one of them from Minister in Tus-
cola county, in which he says, of the
past winter, that on March Goth, the
snow fell 20 inches deep. Ice in the
Saginaw river is frozen 40 inches thick
and smaller streams are frozen solid.
The thermometer has ranged from
zero down to $50 for weeks together.
The other letter is from my son in
Wexford county, in which he says
the snow is March 26,h,) three feet
deep on the level. and in the south
part of the State, the ground is frozer
six feet deep. That day was the sec
ond thawing day, and all the thawinl
weather since winter set in would no
amount to forty-eight hours. How
would the readers of the CHRONICLE
like to live up there ?

Wheat is coming out rapidly, and is

what it might be better In a great
many instances the soil is partly
washed from the roots, and the wheat
is left without a firm hold in the soil.
Rolling would have remedied this, but
there has been so much rain that the

the prospect for good wheat crop is
not as good as many think.

SHOOTING AFFAIR IN A SALOON

From Daily Chronicle, April II.

From Daily Chronicle, April II.
Last night about II o'clock the police
call was rang ut the City Hall, in
manner which indicated that police
officers were being wanted on urgent
business. We stepped out, and find
ing the Waterman absent from the
Hall, and no policemen near, we at
once concluded that something of inn
portance had TRANSFERRED. We tramped
around little and soon met up with
young man who informed us that
Henry Holdren, proprietor of the
Virginia Saloon on Gay street, be-
tween Reservoir and Vine streets, had
been shot and seriously wounded by
one James Collins.
w repaired to the scene Of the TRACE
dy and finally succeeded in gaining
admittance, but found it somewhat
difficult to get any particulars of the
unfortunate affair. Drs. NJ. l.. Rogers,
John NJ. and S. b. Boyd were in at
| tendance and the room was soon
crowded to some extent, as is always
! the case at occasions of this kind. AS
to the exact cause of the shooting we
were not informed, but the difficulty
originated over a game of cards, and
one word brought on another until
finally the parties resorted to pistols,
and it is said that Holdren fired the
first shot, which was returned by Col
Inns, and thus five shots passed be-
tween two before one took eff
ect upon Holdren. 1t is not
known whether Collins was struck
by any of the balls from Hol-
dren's pistol or not, as he left soon
after the shooting took place, He
stood around few minutes, and when
asked by friend why he did not leave
he remarked, we understand, that as
Holdren fired the first shot be could
not see the necessity of his leaving

the wound is a very dangerous one. Ir
