them to differ was over Lincolns large-hearted

liberation and charity.

brought this out Ia amusing manner
Lincoln had appointed to an Office man who
was his political enemy, and who had done him
a positive injury. To Davls's remonstrance,
Lincoln, with mis- never-failing large hearted
ness, responded:
Eyes, | know he is my enemy, but you know
/ never can think of these things"
s'Llncolnr said Davis, you never will be
worth damn until you learn to hate"
Davis, himself, was far from being malignant

in this respect, almost godl!ke. | remember at
another time. when Davis was again making the
same complaint, Lincoln said
Davis. l had to appoint that man. He was

he delivered the opinion. 1t was the famous case
Of Mliigan Bowles and Horsey, who were
charged with conspiracy in Indiana against the
United States government
1t being at a time when the habeas corpus had
been suspended, General Burnside was on the
point of concentrating the accused. But by
the efforts of Judge Mcdonald a habeas corpus
was secured Judge Black, David Dudley Field

ION, well. said Mr.. Bleck, "Ill admit him,

So We stuffed him up with the case.
Judge Davis delivered the opinion on the
ground that Indiana was not in state of gar,

Great Significance of the Contest.

T. P. 0'Connors Gable Special.
Every day the struggle reveals more and more
clearly the true significance of the contest.
England is in the throes of a constitutional re-
beiiion against the feudal tyrants who have
srampled her under foot for centuries and their
allies We are witnessing an uprising of the
two races against the men who have throttled
each. On the one side we have the feudal
privileged classes generally. and on the other
she democraces Yesterday and to-day I met
leading electioneering agents from every part of
England and Scotland. They all tell the same
story. Never was seen in the length and
breadth of the land such fervor on the part of
the masses, never such enthusiasm among the
working classes in the towns and the agricultur-
lists in the shireS, and never has there been such
lavish use of money to crush the popular
ganIZationS; never have the upper classes so ex-
erted every kind OF influence at their command
to terrify. intimidate, or cajole the millions de-
pending on them directly or indirectly for their
daily bread. Last night reported that leading
Liberals were unanimous that great victory
was assured.

LONDON July 1.-The agitation caused in
