Lincoln ard the Quakeress.

During the war Mrs. Quincy, an EN-.
inent Quakeress, sought an interview
with Mr.. Lincoln in order to animate
his spirit by exhortation and prayer.
One rainy Sunday morning she, in
company with three friends, saw the
President in his private room at the
White House. In short address she
assured him of the sympathy which
she and the friends felt for the burden
bearing Executive. She then knelt in
fervent prayer for him and the coun-
try. As Mrs. Quincy was leaving, the
President took her hand, and holding it
for few minutes in silence, SAID: 81
am glad OF this interview. In the very
responsible situation in which / am
placed, as ga humble instrument in the
hands Of my Heavenly Father, l have
desired that all my words and actions
may be IN accordance with His will;
but If, after endeavoring to do my best,
with the light which He affords me, /
find my efforts fail, then l must believe
that for some purpose unknown to me,
He wills it Otherwise. If had had
my way this war would never have
been, but nevertheless 1t came. If
had had my way the war would have
ended before this, but nevertheless Ii
still continues. We must conclude
that he permits it for some wise pur-
pose, though We may not be able 70
comprehend it. For we cannot but
believe that He who made the world
still governs II"

"A CLosE.FIsrED ECONOMIST

The farmer sat in his easy chair
Between the fire and the lamplight's glare;
His face was rudy and full and fair;
His three small boys in the chimney nook
COINED tie lines of q picture book:
His wife, the pride of his home aud heart,
Baked the biscuit and made the tart,
Laid the table and drew the tea,

Tired and weary weak and faint,
She bore her trials without complaint,
Like MANY another household saint
Content all selfish bliss above
In the patient ministry OF lave.
AT last. between the clouds Of smoke
That wreatbed his lips, the farmer spoke;
'There's taxes to rise and int'rcst to pay,
And if there should come a rainy day
'Twould be mighty handy, I'm bound to say,
r. have something put by. For folks must die;
An there's funeral bills, and grave stones to buy
Enough to swamp man putty nighi

Sat in the corner in a row;
They saw their patient mother go

Her temples gray, her checks sunk in

On our way back to the inn the fresh
chimes of tie Angelus came floating
upward from the belfry OF the little
chapel below.

"Tc me" she replied, "it seems rath-

Ga the anniversary of that day, ten
years later, married couple, with
three healthy, happy-iooking children,
alighted, from mulehacK, st the inn Of
the Madonna della Fnestra. Evident
ly English, they yet seemed no strang
ers to the place, though the inmates
of the house failed to recognize them; if
it were not that the auberpiste remark
ed casually To his wife, ''that the
stranger reminded him of a guest of
theirs some ten years ago. But"
added he, "the other was queer look
ing fellow, quanto mai, and never
seemed to be in his sober senses like,
night or day, till the last week he spent
with couple of English ladies, the
younger of whom was his 'inamorata,'
This Engliahman, however, looks as if
he had never tasted drop of good
liquor for the last ten years of his life;
besides being tante vote more decent
looking fellow altogether than 'Paltro

The same evening, when the strang-
er and his family were sitting down to
dinner, the Angelus rang out as usual,
It's sweet and simple hymn. Then
turning fondly toward his wife, he said:
"My Sylvial my providence! this is the
evening of the tenth anniversary of
the day when We hailed in those even
ing chimes the benson of heaven on

And she, wi clasped hands and
smiling through her tears, whispered
heartfelt "Amen!"

AndersOnEiIie To-day.

Andersen is the name of a station on
the Southwestern Railroad, about sixty
miles from Macon. 1t is nothing but Il
railroad station, and the only thing that
eharacterizes the spot is the immense
Union cemetery of some twenty acres,
over which floats the star spangled ban
ner. The cemetery is constructed on
the spot where the prisoners were
buried, and the trenches were dug with
such precision and regularity that the
soldiers were not disturbed, but allowed
to remain IS their comrades inferred
them, working under the watchful eye
and fixed bayonets Of the Georgia
Home Guard.
The cemetery is surrounded by a
stout wall, with an iron gate, and is
under the supervision of superinten-
| dent, who lives on the grounds. II is 8

made 10 ornament this city of our
martyred dead. Ii would take a great
deal of even such influence as plants
and flowers possess to dispel the melan-

the pine woods of Southern Georgia.

identity was preserved by bis comrades
is marked in his resting place by a
white marble stone rising ten inches

There are two rows Of trees-one inside
the other. The outer row has fallen
down, save few posts here and there

stands. Trees have grown up and

The Fate of an Ancient Weather Pro-
phet.
R,Sfo, t1j,ha

The career of Virgins calls to mind
the punishment which Dan Swift and
some of his friends inflicted upon a
westher-prophesying imposter in Queen
Anne's time, known as Partridge, the
almanac maker. Partridge started in
life IS shoemaker; but he soon left
that for the more profitable and less
laborious pursuits of qnack, prophet,
and humbug generally. His preten-
sions imposed On credulous people. and
his slmanacs were bought by the thou
sands. To show what sorry quacks
Virgins and Vennor are, notwithstand-
ing the lapse of two centuries, during
which the art of humbugging has been
developed immensely, they have not
improved in the least on Psrtridse's
| system. He, just as they, foretold
storms in March and December, show.
ers in April, hot weather in August,
and frosts in November, and made as
loud boasts as if s. hit was made.
Swift became disguised at Par;ridge's
pretensions, and determined to put
him hown. Walking around London
one day, he noticed over Smiths shop
the sigr, Isaac Blckerstah." 1t struck
| his fancy, and stored it in mis- memory
for the future. In January, l70S, Part.
ridge came out with his almanac a.
usual. a few weeks aftsrward London
was astenished by the publication Of a
small sheet which purported to contain
the predictions of Isacc Bickerstaff. as.
trologer. 1t made profound sensa.
ton, and the sale was great. Instead
| of the vague and indefinite hints al
futurity which Partridge's almauacS
contained, it foretold foreign and do.
mesuc events with the greatest particu.
larity, giving even the hour of the day
when deaths of famous men. great vic.
tories and defeats should occur. But
one statement created the most talk
for at II O'Clock on the Goth of March
it was predicted that Partridge, the al
manac maker, would die. Partridge
himself stoutly denied its truth, but il
was Of 10 use. On the S0th of March
another pamphlet came out giving s
circumstautial account Of his death
after sincere repentance of his sins
and a confession of the worthlessness o.
has almanac. Everybody believed he
was dead, and Partridge was never able
to convince the public that he was still
! alive. 1t broke up his business, aud il
a few years he really did die. 1t is $
pity that the dean isn't still on earth tc
deal with Vennor and Virgins. A
good dose of rldicule is probably the
most effectual weapon which can be
used against them, and the dean was q
master of the art.

Ingenious Nav tiet a Verdict.

The jury IN the Stanislaus Petelon
mine death st Nsnticoke has brought
verdict to the effect that the laborer
got upon the carriage to go up the shaft
but neglected to give the signal to hoist,
and went 10 sleep; so the engineer
didn't raise the carriage clear up bat
as IS customary at night, raised it part
way and let it stand; that Petelon either
rolled of the carriage while asleep, or,
getting awake and not realizing that he
was part way up the shaft, walked Oh
the carriage. From the evidences
heard, he had been a. ball all he
night previous, and was naturally very
sleepy. The jury stood five to one on
the above theory, so they took eli Ibis
one and put on another man, hence the
ur-nimity of the verdict. The COM
PAM and employees are exonerated
from all blame in the matter-Scran-
ton, Pa, Republican.

Russias.
Solemn Ceremonies in the Splen-
didly Decorated Cathedral
of the Assumption.
A P recession of Nobility and Sol
diery Over Four Miles
in Length.

Moscow, May 29.-The solemn GER
ernony OF the coronation of Alexander
III car of all the Russias, took place
to-day amid scenes of unbounded en-
thusiasm. Despite the threatening
weather and streets mud from the
rains of yesterday, the streets were
crowded as early as Z O'Clock this
morning, when the booming cannon st
the Kremlin gave the signal for the
opening of the days ceremonies. An
hour afterward the court and other Of
ficials assembled in the cathedral and
were quickly followed by a large repre-
sentation of distinguished personages
from all parts of the empire and from
all the principal nations of the world.
The czarowitz and grand dukes came
next in order. After but a brief inter
val of suspense and eager expectation,
and when everything had been with
military precision got into perfectread-
iness, the car and czarina entered the
cathedral, walking under a canopy to
the dais. The emperor wore gener-
aPs uniform and the order of st. An
drew. He looked calm and self-pos-
sessed. The empress wore silver
brocade robe, bordered with ermine.
After the procession had filed through
the cathedral and all had taken the
places assigned to them
THE CORONATION SERVICES
began. TIE czar was sprinkled with
holy water and recited the Niccne
creed, and having had the imperial
mantle placed upon his shoulders ask
ed for the imperial crown, which he
placed upon his head himself. Further
religious ceremonies followed, after
which the car called the empress to
him. She knelt before him, and he
placed a crown upon her head. A mo-
ment afierward the roar of cannon and
the changing of bells announced the
conclusion OF the cerem ony. The crowds
in the streets cheered wildly, and as
the imperial party left the cathedral
the scere was one of much enthusiasm.
The military kept the crowds, however,
at respectful distance from the pro-
cession, and never for moment was
the utmost vigilance relaxed in keep
ing the masses rigidly at distance
from the Emperor. The imperial party
partook of a grand banquet at the
Granswitaja. Congratulations are pour
ing in on the emperor and empress
from all sides.
