How Lincoln Told a Secret.

The following story about President
Lincoln, which may not be new to all
our readers, was recently repeated by
Bishop Simpson; l was informed one
day that committee from New York,
composed of leading citizens, went to
see him in reference to the conduct of
the war. After they had transacted their
general business, and the committee was
making their way to the door-he was
standing in the other part of the room
one Of the gentlemen, who presumed, on
his acquaintance with Mr.. Lincoln, to
ask particularly searching questions, step
ped up to him and, IN the lowest tones OF
voice, said: "Mr. President, would like
to know where Burnsde's feet is going
Burnside had Just sailed with his fleet
but the destination was unknown.
DWELL" said Mr. Lincoln in low tone
Of voice, "would you very much like tc
knowp "Yes." he said he would. "Well
now" said Mr. Lincoln, "if ! would tell
you, perhaps you would tell some one
else" "No," said he, 81 will not" Their
Mr.. Lincoln, putting up his hand to his
face, and, las if to whsper, said loud enough
for all to hear: "Hes gone to seal"

The Blessing of Labor.

than eight hours work per day are re-

mental and moral health. / think that
for most men, including operatives,
mechanics, farmers and clergymen, more
than eight hours per day is necessary, in

more than ten hours day during most

Snufi-taking Girls.
(The Sunny South.)

We are acquainted with daughters
whose snuff. bottles are concealed in their
rooms, where they use the contents con-
stanty, without the knowledge of their
parents.
We have seen at boarding school. girls
go into Mysteries when deprived tor a DAY
or two Of their snuff, and borrow tobacco
of the servants as substitute, unit they
could obtain their usual stimulant ocotcr
or Macaboy; and we are well acquainted
with three sisters-beautiful young girls
were it not for the sallow hue furnishing
their complexion--who are at present
under medical treatment for derangemen
of the nervous system and digestive or
gans, arising from the constant use OF
snuff.

A Dove.


For several days beautiful white dove
of the tumbler variety has followed Con-
ductor Smiths freight train on the Old
Colony Railroad daily from Walpole to a
certain spot in Medfeld, where it lights
on particular barn, reappearing next day
at the same place in Walpole,
During part Of the way the dove flies
lust back of the cab under the pillar oil
smoke, and within few feet OF the en-
gineer, and part Of the way beside the
engineers window and within two feet
of his hand as he stretches it toward her
Occasionally she falls back to the rear Of
the train, as if surveying it, but only tc
resume her wonted place moment later
The engineer has tried several times te
run away from the bird by putting on ex
ira steam, but to no purpose, as she seems
to have the wings Of the wind. Wher
the train passes under bridge, the dove
mounts gracefully above it and tulnblinit
Immediately to its place again on the 9th
er side.
