Lincoln on Butter.

Some one asked Mr. Lincoln why
thew had tried Butler in so many
places-Big Bethel, New Orleans,
Peninsular, etc. 1t "reminded him
of a story ~ "When / was a young
man | was 'rail-splitter.' l wan
ted an AK made, and called on p.
blacksmith | knew in order to get
him to make one for me. ABE, ,
SAID he, Il have just the piece Of
steel for such an ak, and have been
saving it for some time, thinking
YOU might need one.' Having said
this much he put the piece of steel
in the forge, and, having raised 1t
to white heat placed it on his an
vii and beat it powerfully with his
hammer. The sparks flew around,
and all present had to stand aside {;
but. after working on it for some
time, he turned TO me with ruetul
face ana said: ABE, it won't make
an ak. but it will make clevis !!
Next he again put it into the forge,
and, having heated it as before,
placed it on the anvil, and striking
ii with his hammer, the sparks flew
around smartly, and all had to get
out of the way OF them. After
while he said to me: ABE, Pm
sorry to say it won't make a clevis,
but it will answer for bolt he
again introduced it into the fire,
and, after pounding it on the anvil,
and the sparks flying from it as be
fore, and all present having to stand
out of the way of them, he, with a
most lugubrious expression OF coun-
tenance, said to me: ABE, II won't
make bolt, but there is one thing
I am damned certain ii will make"
and having heated it again as high
ly as he could, he plunged it in a
bucket of water and exclaimed :
"It'll make a big tiZzle! and II
did"

MAHoas's DESTINY.
(Air, Widow Machree.

/ k<AAI, w AuOH G2ACiAASSs1
No, Billy Malone, you are voted bore,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
But, nevertheless, we greet you once more
Och hone, Billy Malone!
You are broth of boy,
But without that alloy
That impresSes the joy
OF the blood and the bone,
For your dead as as wedge,
Or a stone in the hedge,
Och hone, Billy Malone.
Billy Malone, you are destined to go;
Och hone, Billy Manone,
And your future must ever be freighted with
Och hone, Billy Malone;
For Billy the Boss
Must tumble and toss
On his bed of remorSe
For the loss of his throne;
And his henchmen will vie
With each other to cry
Och hone, Billy Malone.
Billy Malone, after this Waterloo defeat,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
You must be content to take a back seat,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
For the wall of despair
That issues from Flair
Plainly tells you beware
OF the friends that have flown
To the Democratic breast,
That sweet harem of rest,
Och hone, Billy Malone.
Billy Mohone, how freemen will shout,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
When you are persuaded to step down and
out,
Och hone, Billy Mahone!
The decline of your star,
The groans from a FdTT,
And the feathers and tar
Down your backbone
Will cause you to cry,
What pretty kid am !
Och hone, Billy Malone.
Billy Malone, you must go to the wall,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
Like Arnold and Lucifer, afther their fall,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
For the shouts of hoSanna
That hailed from Fluvanna
Over thy ill-fated banner
So tattered and torn,
Were re-echOed BY throats
That crushed you with votes,
Och hone, Billy Malone.
Now, Billy Mahone if you would be Wise,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
Take lessons from Johnny Wise, who never
tells lies!
Och hone, Billy Malone,
Take the advice of a fool,
Send Blair to school,
Then make him tool
Your tricks to condone,
For he is not up to snuff
Yet, to bully and bluff,
Och hone, Billy Malone.
Now Billy, my boy, you had better go slow,
Och hone, Billy Malone,
For we are booted and spurred, with the
front to the foe,
och hone, Billy Malone,
For "Freemen, this way"
Is our motto to-day,
And in battle AIRY
We will triumph alone,
For we are true to our cause
Our God and our laws,
Och hone, Billy Malone.

A NOVEL real estate project in
Chicago is the building OF an artifi
ciaI island in the lake in front of The
city, laying il off in residence lots
and selling them 10 wealthy citizens
who may wish 20 see the city with
out living in il. The propo-i jon Is
to first form a square or circular en-
closure with walls made OF loose
stone and rising to safe level above
the water of the lake, and then
make the enclosure a general dump
ing ground for the rubbish OF the
city till q plateau for the. future
town shall be secured. 1t Is gener-
ally thought such an island would
be an attractive and romantic place
of residence.

Boldly confronting his assailants, he mount

is amusing. Within few hours the man

Duke Of Westminster is only put down in
this estimate at f3G, 145, many ofthose who
derive incomes from ground rents, mines,

which is the amount received from agricul-

excessive estimate to put down the total in
