A Characteristic Anecdote of the Late Pres

A Characteristic Anecdote of the Late Pres
ident Lincoln.
Reccections of Gen. E. D. Townsend
An old friend of Mr.. Lincoln once related
to me another of his stories which shows not
little of his character. This gentleman
was conversing with the President at time
during the war when things looked very
dark. On taking leave he asked the Presi-
dent what he should say to their friends in
Kentucky-what cheering news he could
give them of him. Mr.. Lincoln replied:
THAT reminds me of a man who prided
himself greatly on his game of chess, having
seldom been beaten. He heard of
a machine, called the 'Automaton Chess
Player which was beating every one who
played against it. So he went to try his
skill with the machine. He lost the first
game, so with the second, and the third.
Then, rising in establishment from his seat, he
walked around the machine and looked at it
few minutes. Then, stopping and point
ing at it, he exclaims, There is a man in
there Tell my friends" said Mr.. Lincoln,
drawing himself up to his full height, there
is man in herel''
This was no spirit of bravado. It was to
reassure his friends, by showing them that he
was not wayering or discouraged but was de-
termined to rise above every adverse event,
and act his part manfully. 1t was on such
occasions, when great resolve was upper
most in his mind, that the true majesty of
Mr. Lincoln appeared in his face and form.
think Winnie Ream failed in her statue,
representing him as presenting his enamel
patton proclamation to the world, by over
looking this trait. The statue, with head
somewhat bowed and a look as of doubt,
does not seem to bring out the stern and
lofty sentiment which, at such a moment,
his whole presence, head erect and mouth
compressed. would have exhibited, showing
that he realized the full responsibility, and
courageously assumed it.

EIope with the Yorkshire Giant
Chicago News
Miss Emma Brandt is slender North Side
maiden whose lips close like the two halves
of muffin. A few days ago Emma paid a
visit to the Chicago museum, and her eyes
fell on the Brobdingnagian form of the York
shire giant From that moment her heart
was lost She has been a constant visitor at
the museum every day since, and she can
always be seen moving around in close prox-
unity to the giant, feasting her eyes on his
martial uniform and plumed cap.

shire. He stood up, waved his arm over her
head and gazed down into her upturned face
as one might gaze from a church steeple into
the street below. Then they conversed a
few minutes together

Coup, as mma,descended from the platform.

PARIS, Dec. 2l.-Marie Colombier has written
a letter to the Figaro expressing her regrets
for writing the memoirs of Sarah Barnum, -
because the book has caused such a discussion.
She declares Bernhardt wrong in supposing her
self to be the imaginary heroine alluded to in
the book. Colombier continues:
"Neither her dagger nor horsewhip, nor the
cutlass of Richepin touched me. Concealed be-
hind a window curtain, | witnessed all that
passed Richepin wounded one of my friends,
who was endeavoring to prevent him entering
my apartments. Bernhardt never complained
about my book until iDjudicious friends prompt
