these facts, SO on his return from Washing

will generally be justified yet it is awkwardly

They had terrible experience, but they
brought it all upon their own heads with

The late President Lincoln was q good
story-teller. This fact has led unscrupulous
persons to pass their stories off as his.
Some, who do not know decency very init
mately, have been industrously at work
making alleged Lincoln stories which are
not nice. General Grant recently said in
public that although he had seen great
deal of Lincoln and listened to many of his
stories, he had never heard from him any
thing that might not be repeated in any So
ciety. The testimony is timely, and Gene

date in 1880. And while Tilden lives 10 die
tate and maneuver, Mr.. Hendricks stands
very poor chance of justice. IL has been
well said that IL lie the nature OF Q mean man
to hate the person he has wronged.
Mr.. Hendricks, though younger than Til
den, is now a venerable man. He has made
his name famous as Senator and Governor:
he will have place in history on account OF
being defrauded of the Vice Presidency; he
will be long remembered as one OF the most
popular and influential statesmen OF the
West for a whole generation. And there is
no doubt that the younger school of Demo
cratic statesmen, of whom Senator Pendle-
ton, of Ohio. is ole of the leaders, owes its
impulse to his teaching. Whether higher
honor is still waiting for him will be determ-
ined by events it is now too early to forecast.
But certainly among the truely eminent
men of the Democratic party OF this genera
ton there has been none ADLER or worthier
than Thomas A. Hendricks OF Indiana.

While on hunting excursion in the great coal
and wood region of Carbondale, Pa, the writer
met William Coil, lumberman. Accustomed to
life and labor in the forests from early manhood,
he was true knight of the Axe. Many tree
had fallen before his ringing strokes, and fleets of
RATS had borne away TO market the sawed pro

right in saying that ali movements in unhindered
labor are graceful, our friend William stripped for
his work, and attacking a tree Richard l. as
