Southern Tribute To Lincoln.

From the Louisville Times.
Abraham Lincoln was the most con-
%spicuous figure this hemisphere has ever
known, save Christopher Columbus and
George Washington. As every French
soldier has hidden in his knapsack the
marshal's baton, so Lincoln typifled the
possibilities TO which the poverty-strickcn
child Of the hunblest may attain. He
was beyond cavil a great man-large
Drained and large hearted. Though he
dominated at an epoch when sectional
jealousy merged into sectional war, no
sentence can be attributed Ia him that
was not full of charity and tolerance.
His death was a loss TO the North, but a
disaster To- the South. A broad and lib
cral man, he would lave been animated
by magnauimity i'm dealing with questions
of reconstruction. He knew men even
better than he knew principles, and he
alone of his party was able To have bound
up speedily the wounds of four years Of
war. Thus it is with feelings of poignant
regret that the country learns of the death
of his grandson yesterday, who repre-
scented the hopes of a line that stands side
by side with Washington AT one section,
and which grows day by day in the csti-
nation of the other section.

BADLY SCARED ITALY.

The fact is that Bismarck retirement
has caused considerable uneasiness
throughout Europe. Italy. which is
generally in a pickle whenever any n
Of the dynasties is seriously affected,
no matter what be- the cause. is re-
ported to be as much frightened las If
the keystone had fallen ont of the arch
of peace, and the whole structure
about to tumble down with a crash"
Italy's nervousness is caused by her
lack of stamina-her consciousness
that her backbone is not atype of per-
feet symmetry and strength. Her
statesmen are said to be bewildered
and everybody is waiting for the sig
nal from Premier Crispi. lie could
easily follow the lead of such a mighty
captain as Bismarck and still retain
his prestige, but those who know Sig
nor Crispi feel certain that he will not
submit to the domination of any other
politician. The triple alliance is
thought to be in danger, and i'm general
it is feared that the whole business is
going Ia pot. The radicals are utterly
opposed to the influence which Ger
many has exercised v Italy through
the triple alliance. They are stirring
the people to demand an independent
national policy. In this juncture
Premier Crispi maintains that discre-
ton is the better part of valOr. and his
definition Of discretion is strict silence.
In other words, he seems % be waiting
to see which way the wind blows.
Certain European correspondents
are embracing this as an excellent op
p~ortunity to prophesy war. They have
prophesied war now these many
years and no war has come.
Undismayed by the failure of history
TO adjust itself to their notions, they
have seized every possible pretext to
continue prophesying their iayorite
prophecy. They have become addicted
TO a habit which they cannot break of.
On the present occasion they are felici-
tating themselves Oh the discovery that
grounds for wal do really exist outside
of their im~aginations. An unusually
large and bloody war is said To be i'm
minent. Where the war is To break
out, who are to he engaged in IL,

dents do not pretend TO with
any certainty. All is left in pleasant
confusion. Even the war itself they
aret.frank enough 10 admit is predicated
upon certain contingencies, and as to
what these contingencies are scarcely
any two of them agree. However, IL
they haven't succeeded in soaring any
thing else, the versatile dealers in
European futures have set poor Italy
shaking In her shoes.

A remarkable phase Of insanity was
that cvinced by Miss Katie O'Donovan,
whose body was found in the river ut Bal
tin,orc Thursday. Previous to commit
ting suicide she called upon the physi-
elan in charge of the University of Mary
land and offered him her body for dis
section after death for the benefit of
science. The offer being refused, she
went further and begged the doctor to kill
her and make an autopsy Of her body for
the benefit Of womankind. In 20 doing
the unfortunate woman most assuredly
gave positive evidence Of AN unbalanced
mind. and il would seem that the doctor,
especially in view "f his calling and POI
sition, should have taken steps tn prevent
her from doing herself bodily harm.
From the t~elegraphcd report, however,
il appears that her ease aroused no solicit
tude or sympathy in the mind of the uni
versity's head doctor, and she straight
way threw herself into the river.
