A STORY OF LINCOLN.

A Remarkable Parsonage at the White
 House-A Very Comica1 Sequel.
 One day man of remarkable appearances presented himself at the White House and requested an audience with MT. Lincoln. He was large, feshy man, of stern but home:y countenance, and of solemn and dignified carriage He was dressed in neatly fitting swallow tail coat, ruff1ed shirt of faultless fabric, white cravat and orange colored gloves. An immense fob chain, to which was attached a huge topaz seal, swung from his watch pocket, and he carried large gold headed cane. His whole appearance was that of man of great intellect, of stern qualities, of strong piety and of dignifed uncomeliness.
 'I am in for it now," thought the presi- dent. s'This pious man means business. He is no common preacher. Evidently his gloomy mind is big with scheme of no ordi- nary kind" The ceremony of introduction was unusually formal and the few words of conversation that followed were constrained The good man spoke with great deliberation, as if feeling his way cautiously, but the evil dent restraint which his manner imposed upon Mr. Lincoln seemed not to please him. The sequel was amazing.
 Quitting his chair the portly visitor ex- tended his hand to MT. Lincoln, saying, as the latter rose and confronted him: "Well, Mir. President, have no business with you none whatever. was at the Chicago con- vention as friend of Mr. Seward have watched you narrowly ever since your in- auguration and I called merely to pay my respects. What want to say is this: I think you are doing everything for the good of the country that is in the power of man tc do. You are on the right track. As one of your constituents I now say to you, do iu future as you d-n please, and will sup port you!" This was spoken with tremen- dous effect
 sWhy," said Mr. Lincoln, in great aston. ishment, 1T took you to be preacher. thought you had come here to tell me how to take Richmond" And he again grasped the hand of his strange visitor. Accurate and penetrating as MT. Lincolns judgment was concerning men, for once he had been wholly l mistaken. The scene was comical in the ex l treme. The two men stood gazing at each l other. A smile broke from the lips of the solemn wag and rippled over the wide ex panse of his homely face like sunlight over spreading continent, and MT. Lincoln was convulsed with laughter.
 "Sit down, my friend, said the president 'ssit down. I am delighted to see you. Luncl with us today. Yes, you must stay ane lunch with us, my friend, for have not seer enough of you yet" The stranger did lunct with MT. Lincoln that day. He was mar of rare and racy humor, and the good cheer the wit, tho anecdotes and sparkling conver sation that enlivened the scene was the wor] of two of the most original characters evel seen in the White House.-Ward H. Lamon

THE United States with it's cosmopoli- tan citizenship cannot afford to be com promised by the exhibition of religious bigotry on the part of it's representatives abroad In another column we refer to the indecent intolerance of minister of the gospel in Scotland, in respect of Pope Leo's Golden Jubilee. This was however, an individual indiscretion, or only shared in by the ssUnco Guid" of narrow con venticle. The alleged conduct of the American Minister at Rome is another kind of impropriety not merely personal in it's character, but in danger of being regarded as national in it's interpretation. MT J. B. Stallo-we are thankful that we never heard of him before-is the accredited minister of our Republic in Rome. He has ever made himself obnoxious to Catholic priests and laymen by his demonstrative bigotry. One act is described in our cable dispatches as particularly discourteous. Entering banquet hall to which he had been invited, and observing one of the Cardinals of the Sacred College among the guests, he retired, announcing that he could not participate in feast at which a Catholic clergyman was guest. This statement will supply sufacent reason why the Presidents Jubilee gift to the Pope was presented by Cardinal Gibbons, and not by the Minister as Court etiquette would have suggested It will also give ground for the removal of a Minister from the post he had dishonored; and President Cleveland is the man not to condone an offence in volying the character and consistency of his country.

two masts. upon which are two very pecu..
