LINCoLN'S BONES.

The Chicago Herald has sensational ar
ticle concerning Lincoln's body. The sum
of il is that it is not beneath or within the
monumental tomb at Spriugfeld-the sar-
cophsgus is empty. Where the body is
cannot be told, but it is safe. A few years
ago an attempt was made to steal the
corpse, and now, says the Herald, it is
placed beyond all possibility of being
seized. It's story bears evidences of YER
ity. The thousands who visit the tomb
every spring and summer, and strew flow
ers about it, have not been placing their
tributes over the remains of the dead
President, but the sentiment is not de-
stroyed by reason of that fact, nor are the
tributes any the less properly bestowed.
1t is very Notifying, however, that we
must thus secrete our dead to preserve
their poor remains from defilement by
theft. Now, with incremation the rule
and practice, all this shame would be
spared us. Lincolns ashes could not be
stolen, and there would be no necessity
for keeping secret from the world where
the poor remains of great man are
placed. In few years, perhaps, the wit
nesses of the secret will be gone, and Lin
coins resting. place remain forever un-
known
