The LINCOLN History.

Following upon the July chapters
of 1.-THE Life of Lincoln which as
already announced, describe the
presidents denomination and Mr..
Greely's self-suggested peace trip to
Niagara-there will probably be only
six more installments of this remark
able history in The Century series.
1t is said that these concluding chap
tiers deal with the most important and
absor bing personal and political topics,
to which Messrs Nicolay and Hay
bring vast fund of special informa-
ton. Linclon's sagacity in dealing
with men and measures land occasion
ally his humor) come out in strong
relief in the chapters that give the
inside view of the attempts of the
radicals to defeat the denomination of
the President, of the disagreements
resulting in the Cabinet changes, of
Chase's appointment to the chief
justiceship, and of the executive
dealings with the 'copperhead' con-
spirators at the North. No part of
this work will attract wider attention
than the account of the measures
adopted by the religious denominations
in support of the Administration, and
of the sympathy and wisdom with
which the President met the sugges-
lions of the churches. OF the interest
of the last three installments it is
only necessary to say that they cover
the period from the second inaugural
to the death of Lincoln and the col
lapse of .he rebellion.
The publishers announce that the
back numbers of The Century from
November, 1885, containing the
installments of the Lincoln History
are now all in print and can be sup
piled to those who wish to complete
their sets. OF several Of these
numbers two hundred and fifty thous-
and copies have been printed.

The citizens of La Crosse recently
had a musical entertainment to raise
funds for the Johnstown sufferers. We
clip the following closing paragraph
from the La Crosse Leader:
The feature of the occasion was a
piano solo by Mrs. Simpson Homer.
This is the first time Mrs. Horner has
appeared before La Crosse audience.
and she both delighted and surprised
them hy the remarkably accurate and
beautiful touch which she displayed.
She is without exaggeratIon the finest
musician We ever had in this city.
The audience was very appreciatiYe OF
Mrs. Horner's talent and gave her a
hearty encore to which she graciously
responded, after some hesitation. with
very happy selection, which seemed
to please the audience very much.

OF modern works of art, the great
panorama representing the MerrimaC
and Monitor naval battle, now being
exhibited in st. Paul, approaches very
closely the acme of realism in art
Representing one of the most stirring
events of the four years war, every
detail has been depicted with the
faithful, vivid accuracy of the master
hand. In fact, so intensely realistic
is the portrayal of all the incidents OF
this intensely interesting scene that
all the excitement which attached ia
the event itself may be said to have
been transferred to the canvas and
from thence to the spectators eyes.
The panorama is located at the Corner
of Sixth and st. Peter streets, and our
people visiting the city should not fail
to see it.
