Respecting the health of Mrs. Lincoln.
the Chicago Journal says: Recent re.
ports OF the critical character of the
health Of Mrs. Abraham Lincoln are
gross exaggerations-the work of a
crack Drained Springfield correspondent,
whose business it is to concoct sensations
for cheap st. Louis paper, and for a
still cheaper Chicago concern. The fact
is, Mrs. Lincoln, who is residing with
her sister, Mrs. Ninian W. Edwards, at
Springfield, ILL.,, IS an invalid, but her
condition :s not worse now than it has
been for some years."

Though hopes no longer cheat, dear,
And dreams have lost their sway,
