President LiicOln's Dream.

1t is not generally known that President
Lincoln once dreamed that he would be as
sasinated, says the Nashville Liberal. While
he was neither professor of religion, nor
even fixed in his belief in one particular creed,
still he was fond of reading and discussing
the Bible. On Sunday evenings he invari-
ably read chapter or two from the script
ures, and then gave his explanation Of it.
One evening at the White House he read sew
sral passages both from the Old and New
Testaments relating to dreams, to which
Mrs. Lincoln and the children gave great at
tention. He began to chat With then on the
subject of dreams, and said he had been
haunted for some days by dream he had
had. OF course they all wanted him to tell
1t. though Mrs. Lincoln said she did't believe
in dreams in the least. and was astonished
at him. So he proceeded to tell it: "About
10 years ago retired one night quite late.
had been up waiting for important
dispatches from the front, and could
not have been long in bed when
fell into slumber, for l was very
weary. During my slumber l began to
dream. thought there was stiffness about
me; heard weeping. | thought l got up
and wandered down stairs. The same still
| ness was there. As / went from room to
room / heard moaning and weeping At
length came to the end room, which / en-
tered at once, and there before me was a
magnificent dais, on which was corpse.
Here there were sentries and a crowd Of
people. said to one of the soldiers: Who
is dead at the White House?' He answered
The President How did he die?' asked.
BY the hand of an assassin was the reply.
Then heard a great wailing all over the
house, and it was so loud it seemed to awaken
me. | awoke much depressed, and slept no
more that night. Such was my dream. y
From that time until his sad death, Mr..
Lincoln was haunted Dy the fear of assassin
alton, and Mrs. Lincoln's first words, after
Wilkes Booth had shot him on April l4th,
were: ''His dream was prophetic" The
remark was not understood then. but when
the story Of his dream was subsequently told
| it was explained.

1t is in some respects fortunate
that the United States is represented
in England by gentleman who can
not be suspected of sympathy with
the desperate measures resorted to
by few persons of the so called Irish
party. Mr.. Lowelps entire sympathy
with the English government IN its
measures to repress this irregular
warfare will enable him to do Ameri
cans III England more service than if
his sympathies were known to be with
the other side. The trait of charac-
ter which the American Minister
needs to develoy now is courage.
Under the conditions which prevail
in England at the present time, it is
hardly possible that innocent Ameri
can citizens will suffer arrest. The
English government will not stop to
ascertain the facts about every sus
pected person before making the ar
rrest. The American Minister can
not of course examine all the cases
of this character which may come
before the public; but he will most
likely have occasion to take a decid-
ed stand in cases in which the inno-
cence of the party accused is made
reasonably al parent. The American
Minister can be of great service to
his countrymen in the present emer
gency, or he can so act as to deepen
the impression that our government
has relaxed its protection over its
citizens abroad. Between twenty
and thirty years ago Mr.. Webster
made the American nation respected
in Europe by two or three ringing
letters to the Austrian Foreign Min
lister, but the reputation then gained
is about exhausted, and little has
been done since to sustain it.--CaH

" Our Baby Dear"
+" Little Birdie Weir"


The following has been contributed b,
kind friend:
"A lgels waiting ut the portals"
Standing with arms extended wide,
To bid welcome to our darling
Over to the other side.
Glad the music that will greet her,
Bright the crown that waits her there,
Hers the JOY and ours the sorrow,
Hers the peace and ours the care.
Come on wings Of glory bright
Down to earth, to lead our darling
To her home of "pure delight"
And when stars were brightly beaming
From calm unclouded sky,
With her hands in those Of angels,
Sadly did we say good-by.
Chant a song Of strange delight,
While we mourn our little darling,
She is happy in His sight.
But we will not weep nor sorrow,
For she's only gone before;
With the Savior she is waiting
On that bright celestial shore.
