RECENT LITERATURE.

WASHINGTON IN LINCOLN'S TIME. By Noah
Brooks. Published by The Century Company,
New York. For sale by Robert Beall, 495 Penn
sylvania avenue. Washington Price Sl.25-
Lincoln literature seems to find great favor in
these days-we hear as much about him as we
did of Napoleon last year. 1t is good that it
is So for he is our own great American hero
and his history is the history of our country
in the greatest struggle that the Nation has
ever made. Lincoln, citizen of Illinois, came
to the Capital assumed the guidance of the Ma
ton, and was its chief strategist, commanding
officer, statesman, philosopher, and friend, and
in everything that he did was truth and honor
and wisdom.
Noah Brooks was newspaper correspondent
in Washington during the civil war. He had
known the President and his wife out in Hi
nois and was received at the White House as
most welcome friend. Lincoln discussed freely
with him many of the war and political topics
that wero bewildering the Nation. So Mr..
Brooks's "reminiscences have a living, personal
interest, and they are delightfully."- written.
Every topic is touched lightly-the chapters
are hardly more than sketches of the men and
times-but with apt phrases and easy language
he carries the reader with him in his walks
about the Washington streets, or for an after
noon at Congress, or for a chat with the Presi-
dent in the evening. There are sketches Of
prominent men-Chase Secretary of the Treas
ury, and afterwards Chief Justice; James A.
Garfield, who was then a Representative
Grant, who was modest man, and avoided the
cheering. enthusiastic crowds who greeted him
in the Capital; Sherman, Custer, and many
other men whose names stand out brightly in
our history. OF Lincoln himself he seems to
be true admirer, and his descriptions of the
President when be awaited the news of the vot-
ing when he was candidate for second term,
and the accounts of the crowds that fairly tore
the skies with the loudness and enth usiasm of
their greetings; tho account of the tragedy at
Ford's Theater; the description of the solemn
city that had lost its great hero, the mourners
who passed through the Capitol to honor the
dead President, are all exceedingly strong,
and one who loves Lincoln must not miss these
pages.
There is good deal Of interesting gossip in
the book about the way the darkies were
treated in the streets; about the wedding at
the Capitol. and about the dear, rascally Tad

Wick the scotsman has issued his Floral
Guide for 1896, and it is very good reading for
all who love their gardens. His novelties are,
a double sweet pea, branching aster the Grim
son Rambler rose and double white fuchsia
with bright red cap and stsmens. Besides there
are early tomatoes, large black cherries and
raspoerries, and fine fruits and vegetables in pro-
fusion. Now is the time to plan the gardens
for Summer, and most excellent suggestions are
to be found in this Guide, and as it comes from
a standard house it may be relied upon. James

Napoleon Assumes the Iron Crown.

Late in March, with a suit compris-
ing the chief courtiers, Napoleon began
his progress toward Milan. The emperor
Of Austria-for to this title Francis was
reduced by the ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of Ger
many-was told in a gracious personal
letter that with Russian troops at Corfu
aud English soldiers at Malta the two
crowns of France and Italy could not be
kept apart, except nominally, but that
''this situation would cease the moment
both these islands were evacuated. "
The attention Of all Europe was mo
mentarily diverted from Boulogne to
the spectacle at Milan. On May 90 the
emperor of the French was crowned
king Of Italy in the cathedral by his
own hand, and with the iron rown of
Lombardy, a diadem considered the
most precious OF earth, for it was said
to be made from the nails which pierced
the Saviour's feet and hands. 1t was
with perceptible defiance that as he set
the emblem ON his head he uttered the
traditional words, "God hath given ii
to me let him beware who touches 1t.

A Curious Lake.

Bridger lake, in northwest Wyoming.
has q queer characteristic and one which
cannot be claimed for any other body Of
water in America, as far as we have

It discharges its waters into both the
Pacific ocean and the gulf OF Mexico.
During the average seasons the waters
Of Bridgsr lake flow out through a small
river which is a tributary to the Vel
lowstone, and the water thus discharged
finally reaches the gulf by way OF the
Missouri and Mississippi rivers. During
rainy seasons the level Of the lake be-
comes SO high that the waters empty
through another opening also. The wa.

second chasm flow into Snake river, AID
