This great work, begun with the sanction OF
President Lincoln, and continued under the
authority Of his son, the Hon. Robert i. Lin
coin, is the only full and Authoritative record
OF the life OF Abraham Lincoln. Its authors
were friends ofLincoln before his presidency !:
they were most intimately associated with
him as private secretaries throughout his
term OF Office, and To them were transferred
upon Lincoln's death all his private papers.
Here will be told the inside history of the civil
war and OF President Lincoln's administra-
tion,--important details OF which have hith-
erto remained unrevealed. that they might
first appear in this authentic history. by

that they will be able to thwart the will
of the Democratic majority by the aid

there are any Democratic members Of

The subject is now being agitated of
changing the names of the two West
Virginia towns, Charlestown and
Charleston, as they are very confusing
and cause endless trouble in mail mat
tiers. The former place seems to have
the best right to the surname Of
"Charles," and, besides, the latter place
should be proud of the name proposed
for it, Kanawha City. The names should
be changed as matter of pr acticsl COM
mon sense, if for no other reason.

SOME our contemporaries are "going
for" the Charlestown Democrat in very
lively style in their efforts to prevent
the harm it is doing TO the Democratic
party. We confess that we do not know
whether 1t is sensible or foolish to
answer the many malicious and mis-
chievous articles which appear in that
paper. Consulting Scripture in regard
to the matter, the 4th verse Of the 26th
chapter of Proverbs tells us what to do
In the case, but the next verse advises
contrary course, and we are sgain In
doubt. We reckon the best plan is to
give the Democrat plenty Of rope and
await the result.

fact that this bloated reviler of the God

ments turned upon the methods pursued
by those of the original faith and founded
sects wherein the tenets of that faith were
included, but abjuring all and any inter
ference of human DEGREES or laws which
in any manner infringed upon the plain
teachings of scripture. These wholesale
breaks from the original fold have
borne fruit in the thousand forms of
religion known to the civilized world,
and all of these forms have been sue
cessful in drawing votaries TO the several
shrines, with more or less power, until
the enlightened mind which rebels at
the Papal dogma and yet believes in
the divinity OF Christ and the teachings
OF the Bible, is at loss what to do to be
saved. The greatest minds OF the pro-
testing faiths adhere strictly to the lines
laid down by their several creeds, and
many OF them hold a man up to certain
damnation unless he embraces the ritual
guiding them, and consequently, if they
are accepted as right, the mountebank
who never thought OF God or salvation
finds the argument they use to be pass.
port to the minds OF the dissatisfied, and
unholy scenes like the above are the re-
suit. 1t is the drifting away from the
simple teachings as given by Christ
and His Apostles, to n humanized
construction Of their intent and
meaning, and proves that the farther
away human construction goes from the
plain truths OF scripture, the farther the
deluded people are from God, and the
influences OF His Grace. The Constitu
tonal amendment which makes religion
q limitless enjoyment in America, was
not intended to license sacrilege, ant
that such things could take place in al
enlightened community, without dire
happenings to the vagabond responsible
for them, argues poor state OF spiritual

GOOD APPOINTMENT.

The appointment of Daniel Magone,
Ogdensburg, as Collector Of the Port of
New York, is significant in many ways.
Magone is one OF the class Of able men
who have been from time to time promi-
nent in the politics of the State Of New
York, and Of whom Mr.. Tilden was the
type, who are politicians for the sake of
politics rather than for personal advance
ment or the spoils OF office. He is law
yer Of more than local renown, and
though he has never held office, except
as one of Governor Tilden's commission
ers to investigate the Canal ring, he has
for many years welded a wide political
influence, and he was chairman OF the
New York State Democratic Committee
in Tilden's great campaign of 1876 In
putting this practical politician in charge
of the most important Federal office in
New York, the President is following in
the line that proved SO successful in the
other appointments. Hedden, the "busi-
ness man." in the New York Custom
House, proved failure, as, without ex-
perience in politics, he became the mere
puppet OF local political boss. Magone
represents the party in the State, not one
OF the local factions in the city, and his
appointment means that he will be his
own boss, and not allow the Custom
House to be run in the interest OF Tam
many or of the County Democracy. The
developments in the Flynn-Squire affail
show the need OF good head and strong
hand to rally and reorganize the party
forces, and it is to this important ant
difficult task that Mr.. Tilden's lieutenan
has been assigned.
