A Renaissance Of Lincoln.
His Reply TO Virginia.

Abingdon, Illinois, Oct. 22-Seeing the
marked interest attracted to the period of the
Inauguration of Lincoln by the recent publ
cation of the several papers from the "Diary of
Public Man, it has seemed not improbable
that some of your readers would perhaps be
interested to know, if any one could tell, at
what point of time it became known that this
"unlettered greenhorn'' to whom the Republi-
can party had so recklessly entrusted "the life
of the nation" became fully aware we were
engaged in war with the Dissatisfied
States. This knowledge came to him, as most
of his knowledge did, by the slow process of his
reasoning powers, before he left Springfield
and before the Virginia convention had even
met to consider the position that State would
take, and it came round in this wise: Mr..
Lincoln's chief point OF anxiety, between the
election and the Inauguration, was to have the
"border States" st:y, and he kept up negotia-
tions with the Union men of Virginia to Sc
cure that end until the result of that election
was known. Along with the news of their
triumphant success came letter from Colonel
John B. Baldwin, since dead, stating that the
danger was immense, and refusing to be re-
sponsible for the result in convention at all
coin of policy on which he could safely in
trench, giving him cart blanche, without so
much as hint of what it should be, but so
ably and succinctly setting forth the situation
he should have to meet as to make us at once
and fully sensible crisis had come. Mr.. Lin
coin took the letter in the evening, for "a
night to reflect and promised to return it
with his answer next morning at O'Clock.
Precisely, almost to the moment, he came with
the letter to my room, and his answer made mp
and it was this: "Tell them / will execute
the fugitive slave law better than it has ever
been. | can do that Tell them will protect
slavery in the States wnere it exists | can do
that. Tell them they shall have all the offices
south of Mason and Dixon's line if they will take
them. will send nobody down there AS long
as they will execute the offices themselves"
This much he intended for 'them." But"
said he with mournful sadness it was impos-
sible to hear without sympathy at once, "all
this will do no good. They are in position
where they must have the right to carry slav-
cry into the territory of the United States i
have lived my whole life and fought this thing
through ON the idea that slavery is sin, and
ought not to be extended, and l can't go back
on myself" Without salutation or other word
he unfolded himself, and stalked out with
look of unutterable grief, and l lay down and
went Our minds at his last words had met.
We felt what it meant. And war was the
word we saw at that instant, 1ed-handed and
grim. and distinct The negotiation with Nir-
einia was transferred to Washington, and he
got himself there as quick and as safe as he
could. He went there to fight, and, if need
be to die.

THE Machias Republican has a few words
to say about that Grand Jury in Washing
ton County that found no evidence of bri
berry worthy of action: "It was to be eX-
pected that the Calais Times, after lis vain
Glorious vaunting about the bribery cases i'll
Washington county, would try to invent
some excuse just such as it has done, charg-
ing County Attorney Rounds not only with
a neglect of duty, but with absolute crimin-
ality in thwarting the Grand Jury in its at
tempts to do justice. Such charge does
not stop with the County Attorney, but re-
fleets discredit on the Grand jury, on their
intelligence and honesty. Every intelligent
man ought to know that the Grand jury is
as independent in its action, of the County
Attorney, as it is of the President of the
United States. His only duty is advisory
and he can interpose no bar to the vote of
the Jury. More than one half of the Jury
were Democrats, and yet it was understood
that from their own motion the vote stood
II to against an indictment, and more than
that the Jury, before its final adjournment,
passed unanimous vote of thanks to the
Attorney for the able mannerin which he
had discharged his duty"

The Connecticut Victory.


The tables of returns tell their own story of
the splendid Republican victory ON Tuesday.
There were to be eleven Senators chosen from
the odd numbered districts, the ten from the
even numbered districts holding over another
year OF the eleven elected nine are Republ-
cans and two are Democrats. OF the ten, seven
are Republicans and three are Democrats, so
that the Senate this winter will consist Of 16
Republicans and 3 Democrats
The change in the House is equally remark
able. The members elect are Republicans l63,
Democrats 10, ties 3, Independent /. Count
ing the ties and the Independent against us
Though we shall doubtless win one or more OF
the former) and the Republicans will have IS
majority in the House, and ON joint ballot 81
majority. Ct.
Last year the Legislature stood thus: Sen
ate. Republicans II, Democrats {; House, Re-
nublicans 142, Democrats 100, others .. Re
publican majority OIL joint ballot, AZ. The
majority this year (91) lacks but three of being
double that of 1873
There has been no such victory since 1865.
That year the news of the fall of Richmond
reached the State on the morning Of the elee-
ton and the Republicans reelected Governor
Buckingham by II ,0S5 majority, carried every
one of the twenty-one Senatorial districts ana
elected 155 members Of the House against 70
Democrats having 0 majority on loih' oal'o'
of 100.

CAST0RIA

Pitchers CastOrin Is especially adapted to
children. When the child has health the mother
can rest. Castoria is vegetable substitute for
nauseous Castor Oil, and the deleterious narcotic
Syrups sometimes used. Containing neither min
eral morphine alcohol, it has received the endors
ment of physicians, and its sale is constantly an
rapidly increasing. 1t seems to be natures REM
cdy for assimiIating the food in the stomach,
causing proper digestion and preventing sonr
curd, vomiting, wind-colic and diarrhea. This
gives natural sleep. Castoria is not narcotic.
1t is as pleasant to take as honey 1t relieves the
stomach and destroys worms 1t allays fever and is
very efficacious for Group Every mother should
have it. Babies cry and grow fat upon Castoria

The Globe Fiction.

On the 3lst ut., Immediately after the
publication of the charges of corruption in
the Maine election preferred by the Boston
Globe, the PRESS called for the proof and
said: "The Globe does make, in regard to
Washington County, specific allegations
which can and must be met. The sooner
they are taken up and disprOyed the better
for the good name of the State. We believe
that the statements which appear in the
Globe are false in general and particular.
We believe that its report is brought out,
first to influence the Massachusetts election,
second to aid the purposes of the base and
reckless conspirators who are seeking to
wrest the Governorship of Maine from the
Republicans to whom it belongs. But the
specific charges made by the Globe cannot
be dismissed with mere expression of un-
belief. The authors of them must be
brought to the proof, and if the charges are
substantiatel the guilty must suffer the pen
atty imposed by law"
The implicated men, Peter A. Martin and
Joseph S. Farrar, have, somewhat tardily,
responded. Their affidavits, published in
another column. furnish full and satisfac-
tory answer to the charges made by the
Globe Commissioner. Those charges, it
will be remembered, were not brought in
court of justice Their authors preferred
another tribunal, and sought the trial by
newspaper. The trial has been granted
them. and their case may as well be thrown
ont of that court, for it has absolutely no
foundation.
We bespeak careful perusal by our read
ers, of the affidavits of Messrs. Martin and
Farrar. The men testify unequivocally that
they bribed no voters, bought no votes, and
were cognizant of no acts of bribery; that
the small sums of money they did expend
were spent for legitimate political purposes;
and that the Globe Commissioner, one
Tarbox, deliberately forged the paper pub
lished in the Globe, to which Mr.. Farrar's
name was attached.
The belief expressed by the PRESS at the
time that the Globe statements are false in
general and in particular, is justified by the
testimony to-day published. We did not
think the author of the statements had re-
sorted to forgery. Our opinion was ex-
pressed before the spurious Blaine and Long
letters were printed in the Globe. We are
now prepared for any statement, however
reckless and mendacious, in the columns of
that journal

THE Belfast Journal speaks strongly and
sensibly in condemnation of the fusion plot
to capture the State government, aud says:
The crv of fraud is the last resort of de-
feated, demoralized and despairing party,
The men from whom it comes are bigger
frauds than any they have charged upon
their opponents. Their success would have
been runols to the State.< The party which
advocated fiat money and communism,
which relied for success upon the continu-
ance of hard times, the failure of crops, the
ravages of the potato bug and the absence OF
the menhaden from our waters, is reproach
upon the civilization of the nineteenth CEN
tury. Its fate was inevitable from the first
1t could have no permanent foOthold i'll any
intelligent community, much less among
the people of New England, who are honest,
law-abiding and just. The men who sought
to create and control in their own interest q
party founded on ignorance and dishonesty,
have naturally gone down with their follow
ers, and are now powerless alike for either
good or evil. Their cries Of fraud only serve
to call attention to themselves as self-pillo-
ried in the public gaze.

HARTFORD Courant: False notions OF IL
nance and currency have had much less in
fiuence here than in either Maine or Massa-
chusetts. Connecticut chooses hard mon
ey, real money basis. Resumption has
come; if we are not exceedingly foolish as
nation it has come to stay. Business has re-
vived amazingly. Very few, indeed are idle,
save of their own choice. No sensible man
desires to disturb this state of affairs by ell
couraging Congress to raise unnecessary is
sues in legislation. 1t is perfectly evident
that tie course of the Democracy during the
extra session of last summer and the disclos
ures therein made of the temper and pur-
poses of the ruling influences of that party
have brought back to the Republican party u
large number who had been mere or less dis
satisfied and that it has animated the whole
mass with warmth and zeal not witnessed
for many years. 1t is as certain as any fu-
ture political event can be that if the Repub
licans shall exhibit even tolerable wisdom in
Congress and in their nominations next
year, Connecticut is one of the States they
may carry triumphantly.
