ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
An Elegant EpItome Of the Character Of
the Great President.

[Col Bob Ingersolrs Introduction Of a Lecturer. ]
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN-We are
to hear q lecture about Abe Lincoln.
Not Lincoln the President, Lincoln
the liberator, Lincoln the statesman,
but Lincoln the lawyer. Something
about him when he fell heir to agony
and to fame, something about his mode
of life, his habits, his thoughts, his
words-that Is to say, his daily life
because such peculiarities i'm their
characters are omitted by biographers-
Nearly every great character OF his
tory Is q kind of great mOnstrOsity.
We knnw nothing about Washington.
He Is q steel engraving. No dirt of
humanity clings to his boots. We
will hear about Lincoln, who lived
where men were free and equal, and
WAS acquainted with people. mot much
with books. Every man 10 in some
sort book. He lived, the poem of
the year-in the fields. the woods, the
blessed country. To him every land
scape was . teacher, every flower q
lesson, every grove q fairyland. A
country life IL in itself an education.
1t gives q man the idea Of home. He
hears the rain on the rOoN the rustic
Of the breeze, the music Of natures
fullest choral. Yon have no idea how
many men education spoils. Colleges
are where brickbats are polished and
diamonds dimmed. II Shakespeare
had graduated ut Oxford he would
probably have become . pettifogging
attorney or Q shypocritical parson.
Lincoln's education was derived from
men and things, and hence he had .
chance to develop. He was . many
sided man. He was smiles, a. well as
team. He was not afraid to seek for
knowledge where he had IL not. When
Q man II to dignified to ask he ceases
to learn. Lincoln was . logician.
Logic il capacity. 1t il the child Of
good heart and Q good head. He was
always honest with himself. He was
an OfatOr-that II. he was natural. If
you wish to be sublime you must be
close to the grass you must sit close
to the hearth Of human experience.
Above the clouds Il IL too cold. The
difference between the orator and the
mere elocutionist Is no where better
seen than In the speeches Of Lincoln
and Everett ut Gettysburg. One came
from the heart; the other was born
only Of the voice. Lincoln's speech
will be remembered forever Everett's
no man will read. II you. want to find
out what man IL ut the bottom, give
him power. Every man can stand
only . great man prosper
ity. It II the glory Of Lincoln that he
had power and never misused Ii ex-
sept on the side of mercy. He will be
known - the gentle and good.

here in the west. Well, he succeeded
only in demonstrating how little he
knew of the matter concerning
which he was legislating. If it
hadn't been for the good sense Of
the people Edmunds would have
produced chaos, and occasioned
more trouble than years of genuine
craftsmanship could have undone.
Fortunately the people possessed
greater wisdom than he, and the
consequence has been that compar-
atively good order has prevailed, and
something like system still exists ia
the management of affairs.
But after all, what do Edwards
Plerrepont and his opinions amount
to? In craftsmanship the man is
merely dude, in politics crank,
in Law he is simply the plaything of
ordinary attorneys, in social life he
is the aughjng stock of this genera
ton, though claiming and possess
lug some sort of ancient respecta-
bility that he has inherited from
his forefathers. He is a cipher in
this age.

colored church at Stanton, in the
State mentioned. On a recent Sun
day he informed his congregation
as to what he would do with col
ored man who would vote the demo
cratic ticket. His plan would be "to
hang him on the highest tree in the
ecclesiastical forest, and to bury
him So deep in immensely that The
hand of resurrection could never
reach him." And all the niggers
groaned "Amen."

THE POLICE

AS we knew would be the case,
THE HKRALD's suggestion that the
city police force be increased meets
with popular approval. The general
sentiment seems to be that the few
officers now on duty are incapable
of giving proper protection to life
and property. considering the large
number Of roughs and desperadoes
who are gathering here; and it
certainly is unfair to the policemen
to ask them TO face the danger with
out being reasonably well prepared
to at least hold their own in the
contests that are liable to be forced
upon them at any moment. The in
creased expense for additional
police is the only thing that can be
urged against the proposition, but
what is the cost as compared with
safety and the certain enforcement
Of the law? The taxpayers will not
object to the expenditure Of their
money for the maintenance Of
good government and the preserva-
ton of peace.
In this connection it is also sug-
gested that the police be uniformed.
There has ever been an objection to
the municipal constabulary appear
ing in uniform. This has come al
most exclusively from the officers
themselves, who seem unnecessar-
lily prejudiced against uniforms.
The fact is, the public ought to be
able to distinguish policeman upon
sight, and not be under the necess-
lty of making either an inquiry or |
an investigation. Besides, the unie
form is certain badge or certificate
of authority that is needed byI
everybody. In numerous instances
of resistance to officers there is more
or less paliation or excuse for thel
offender, because of his ignoranceI
Of the fact that the policeman is
what ne assumes to be. There are
not many men who will willingly
submit to arrest at the hands of their
fellow private citizens, whereas
there are comparatively few even
in their semi-sane moments who
care to resist one they know to be a
duly commissioned officer. Expert
ence elsewhere proves that the uni
forming of the police is the greatly
preferable plan, and there has never
been presented a valid and sufficient
reason for not adopting and en-
forcing the regulation here. 1t is
hoped the Council will early act
upon both these matters.
