Another Anecdote of Lincoln.

A correspondent of the Springfield

story of our martyr president. During
the war, when Mr.. Steward was about
to return from his Auburn home to
Washington, in his special drawing
room car, he IAN Episcopalian himself)
invited the pastor and two of the elders
venerable mem of the First Presby-
terian church to accompany him. On
arriving at at'Washington, one of the first
things to do was, of course, to intro
duce them to the president. All who
knew the Hon. secretary personally, can
appreciate how he said: "Mr. President,
allow me to introduce my friend, the
Rev. Dr., of the First Presbyterian
church of Auburn. And Mr.. President,
allow me to introduce my friend, the
venerable DR., elder of the First
Presbyterian church of Auburn. After
shaking hands all around Mr.. Lincoln

THE NEWS.
XLK. CONGRESS-.

On the reassembling of the Senate
on the 10th, great part of the morning
hour was taken up in the presentation OF n
large number of petition from various parts
of the county in favor Of the adoption of a
sixteenth amendment prohibiting the States
from disfranchising persons on account Of
sex, all of which were referred TO the COM
mittee on privileges and elections. Among
the bills introduced are the following: to
regulate Chinese immigration; relating to
the Hot Springs; and for mail steamship
service to Mexican ports, Mr.. COnkling
submitted resolutions of inquiry regarding
the restoration OF Runkle and Draper to the
rolls of the army and navy; adopted. A bill
was introduced by Mr.. Sargent providing
for the admission of women to practice law
before the Supreme court of the United
States. Mr.. Matthews resolution, declaring
the right of the government to pay the
bonds in silver coin, was called up but OBJ
lection was made to its consideration by
Mr.. Sargent, who offered resolution that
the Senate meet on Saturday to hear argu-
ments of the representatives OF female SUI
frage, on the floor Of the Senate. He said
he predicted that Rthis assault upon the
Senate, as 1t has been called, was only the
beginning of assaults upon Congress, and
State legislatures in favor OF a sixteenth
amendment. This movement was spreading
and growing more troublesome year after
year. He argued that these ladies did rep

The House also met at noon on the
1Oth, and $50 members answered to their
names. Mr.. Kelley offered resolution on
the woman suffrage question similar to
that acted upon in the Senate. Mr.. Crittcn-
den, of Missouri, objected and the resolu-
| ton went over. Mr.. Luttrell introduced II
bill to prevent the employment of Chinese
on public works; also to prohibit polygamy

to apply to the House at any time for power

it was adopted.
The following bill was introduced in
the House on the 1lth and referred: By
Mr.. Price, to promote the deposit of say
ings, and refunding of the national debt.
By Mr.. Lapp, TO give construction to the
act for the resumption of specie payments;
also authorizing the Secretary of the Treas
ury to issue coupon bonds of the denomi-
nations of SIS, S25, $50 and 500, for the in
ycstment of savings. Mr.. Hale moved the
previous question on substitute reported
from the committee of the whole, which is
to the effect that the committee desiring to
make investigation may at any time apply
to the House for leave to send for persons
and papers, but requiring them to present

The Oricin of Girt Giving.

Christmas gifts had their origin in
the Roman PaganaliO, which was instl-
tuted by Servius Tulius, b. G, $50,
At these festivals, celebrated at the be-
ginning of the year, an altar was erect
ed in every village, andto the box placed
upon it every man, woman and child
was expected to contribute a coin.
Aubrey speaks of a pot in which Roman
coins were found, and supposed to be
one of these Paganalian vessels. The
Christmas box naturally arose from
this pagan New Years box. There is
an impressive propriety and tender
| beauty, however, in thus commemora-
ting the event which gave a Divine Re
deemer to lost world-the greatest
gift that is conceivable to mankind. 1t
is, moreover, an equally appropriate
custom which makes the season one not

THE EASTERN WAR.
What is Going OH In Europe.

What is Going on In Europe.
The probability of general Europe
an war begins to be questioned even by
those who but few weeks ago were offer,
ing to bet odds that before the first of Jan
uary all Europe would be ablaze, and who
had begun new bull campaign in Wall
street on the strength of this belief of theirs.
Cable dispatches have brought us every
morning unmistakablc indication that the
war party in England is losing ground, and
without the armed interference OF Great
Britain in the settlement of the Eastern
conflict, there is no reason for anticipating
troubles in Europe,
in point of fact it became evident, some
time ago, that, as far as the English Gov
crnment was concerned, the war faction
consisted Of Lord Beaconsileld alone, with
but feeble support on the part OF the
country at large. The great majority in
the cabinet, the bulk Of the intelligent rep
resentatves Of the mercantile and manu-
featuring interests together with the mass
Of the population, were all for peace. The
great mistake of the British statesmen was
in not accepting the Berlin memorandum.
The Cretan Revolution,
Revolutionary battalions were to be
raised in Crete, but only two were actually
formed. The Turkish government has only
five battaions or rediies, but intend to or
ganize the Mahometan inhabitants. The
Turks seem decided to only hold the towns
on the coast and leave the interior to insur-
gents. All Christian men join the insur-
gents, and will number 1900 The Cretes
are rising. There is immense excitement
at Athens, and revolutionary committee is
urged to order rising in ThessaIy, but the
government has dissuaded the BuIgarians
from prccipitate action.
