One of LincOln's Stories.

In Baltimore recently ,sRev. DR. .SzoId,
| rabbi OF Hanover street synagogue,
delivered lecture On Abraham Lin
coin, IN which he related quite a num-
Der OF short anecdotes concerning the
great man. DR.. Sold said that Mr..
Lincoln had the most remarkable
faculty for solving difficultproblem by
telling simple little stories or parallels.
He compared him to Alexander the
Great cutting the Gordian knot, for he
would unravel the most intricate cues
ton by the sword of his sharp, keen,
and incisive wit. 1t was not Mr.. Lin
coins nature, be said, to argue point,
but when persons came to him with
complaints he often gave them his
views. on the subject in a short and
mprehensible parable. AS for in
stance, some gentleman from the west
had called at the white house, and had
been harangning Mr.. Lincoln in an ex-
cited manner about the omissions and
commissions of. the government. He
heard them patiently for time, and
finally said: Gentlemen, suppose al
the property you were worth was in gold,
and you put it in the hands Of BlOndin
to carry across the Niagara Falls On
tight rope, would you shake the rope
while he was going over it, or keep
shouting to him, 'Blondin, stoop little
more; 60 a little faster?' No, l am sure
you would not. You would hold your
breath as we'll as your tongue, and
keep your hands off until he was safely
over. Now, the government is in the
same situation, and is carrying across
stormy ocean an immense weight;
untold treasures are in it's hands; it is
doing the best it can; don't badger it;
keep silence, and it will get you safely
over"

London Times.

A terrible murder, with robbery, has
been lately reported from Ekaterino-
slav. A soldier just returned from the
theatre of War had gone to the village
Of Karnauchowka. While there he
was asked to be godfather Of a child
about 10 be baptized. The Pope who
performed the rite was venerable man
of about 80 years Of age, and the soldier
demeanOr that at the conclusion Of the
ceremony he presented him with a
gold-piece as an ho1aororiun. The I'M
usual value of the gift attra cted the at
tentlon of the priest. He asked the
soldier whether he had many similar
pieces. The latt er answered without
reserve that he had been able to save
his pay, and had been otherwise
fortunate; and that he had turned all
into gold, which be carried with him.
The cupidity of the priest was aroused.
The better to secure his object, he took
his deacon into his confidence, and they
resolved to watch for an opportunity to
rob the soldier. A few days later this
latter set out on his journey home
wards. He had to pass through
thick wood. This the conspirators had
learnt beforehand. They lay in wait
for him, attacked him, felled him to the
earth, and literally gnawed his throat
in the absence of weapons sufficiently
homicidal. Having robbed him, they
left him by the wayside, convinced that
he was dead, or dying, and could tell no
tales. But some peasants coming up
shortly afterwards found the unfortunate
man still living. They were so prompt
and skillful in their attentions that he
recovered consciousness, and was able
before his death to indicate clearly
who were his assassins. They are now
in the hands of the police

her more than once, and no married
man presumed to kiss her hand the
second time. She never placed her
self in any mans way, but if she had an
errand up street or down, she went
when it suited her regardless Of those
who were watching her. After spend
ing most delightful summer with her
cousins, she left Marysville, and not a
single misdemeanor could the gossips
attach to her name, though the entire
village had been in a ferment during
her stay.
When Mr.. Morrison heard that she
was going, he came and offered her his
hand and fortune, the latter ten acre
farm, but she kindly told him her
heart was in another mans keeping
and he must try and forget her.
Ida, through the summers expe.
rience, become so disguised with the
society of Marysville that she persuaded
her husband to sell and start for the
west.
Many of the women were heartily
ashamed Of their conduct, but the men
were as much piqued at the GOODNESS
with which Miss Sanderson could wind
them around her finger, and not harm
herself, as were the women at he1
beauty and wit. So they compromised
matters, and when the next beautiful
woman came among them, they were
not SO ready to believe the first flying
rumor!- Western Rural

How He Obtained His Drinks.

A smart trick was played on one OF
our prominent grocers and liquor deal
ers of Rochester on Monday, which en-
abled the enterprising perpetrator to
get comfortably full of good whisky
and fill his pocket with good cigars free
of expense. He slipped into the store
and told the genial, unsuspecting junior
partner of the concern that he was do
ing business in Henrietta and wanted
to buy a.quantity of whisky. He sam
pied the brands, taking large doses in
every case and ordering four and one
half gallons of each kind. He then
sampled sherry in the same liberal
manner, and ordered four and one-half
gallons of that. Then he sampled CT
CARS, lighting one, putting several in his
pocket, and ordering three boxes. He
was much exercised for fear he could
not have his order filled by 2 o'clock in
the afternoon, but on being assured
that it should not fail him he went of
quite easy in mind, after signing the
order book. The goods are waiting for
him yet, and the name on the order
book is wholly unintelligible. The firm
is now using the remainder of the casks
in the endeavor to keep the joke still.
