Mcclure's Magazine for March.

In McCIure's Magazine for March is brought
TO light a speech in 1887 by Abraham Lincoln,
which the biographers until now, seemingly,
have known nothing Of, though 1t contains pas
sages still OF the highest interest. For ex am
pie of politicians, Lincoln says: "A set of men
who have interests aside from the interests of
the people, and who, TO say the most OF them
are, taken as mass, at least one long step re-
moved from honest men. 1 say this with the
greater freedom, becaus, being politician my
SELF none can regard it as personal" There
are are also an amusingly judicious love pro-
posal Of Lincoln's, and some lively reminiscent
ces OF him as the leader in successful name
uyre to establish the State capital at Spring
field and as young lawyer in that smart, new
town The pictures are numerous, and include
four portraits of Lincoln.

Hay gives extracts from thic diary. and adds
"reminiscences from his own personal intimacy

Bryan's sincerity May BE Unquestioned.
But


Mr.. Bryan's arguments from hogs
and hens and other specimens OF ami
mated nature and farm products to
show from the hogs that the roofing
capitalists need rings in their noses in
the shape Of 90 cent dollars in order to
keep them from making too much money
out Of the toiling masses, and then from
the hens that the silver product OF the
whole world will be worth $l.29 an
ounce so soon as any body or any govern
ment that can afford it will agree to
take it at thar, by his illustration of the
man who could make eggs worth 20
cents dozen by buying them at that
price, no matter what might be the cost
of production-these arguments are un-
questionably ingenious and eloquent,
but, after all, a trifle confusing.
He recalls the story Of the man who
opened an account with an old lady who
sold, among other things, peanuts and
beer. "How much" said he to the old
lady, "do you ask for peanuts?' Three
cents measure, said she. 'Ah, yesl
Put me up cents worth of peanuts. !"
The old lady having put up the peanuts,
the purchaser said: II see you sell beer?
How much do you ask for beer"
"Three cents glass" said the old
lady Then, after moments reflection,
the purchaser said, well, on the whole.
l think I'll take glass Of beer instead
of the peanuts. handing back the pack.
age Of peanuts. A little desultory con-
sultatiou followed, after which the pur-
chaser started to go. Il beg your par
don, sir, said the old lady, "but you
haven't paid for the beer" why, no,
of course not, +" said the customer. II
gave you the peanuts for the beer. !"
"But," said she. "you did not pay for
the peanuts. PAY for them? OF course
l didn't" said the customer why
should /? / didn take Them"
The old lady. being like some of Mr..
Bryan's followers, little slow in her
mathematics, but OF confdipg nature,
after pause slowly replied: lyon seem
to be very sincere man, and what you
say is no doubt correct, though didn't
quite understand it. But will you be
good enough Hereafter TO trade some-
where else?" A great many good, hon
est voters who have been listening to
and reading Mr.. Bryan for ;he last two
months will doubtless reach the same
conclusion in November--that he is
probably sincere, though they do not
quite understand him; but on the
whole, they would rather he would
trade somewhere else. New York Trib-
une.

the verse Is varied and Is suggested by
the titles OF the several groups-"studies

and ''Patter OF Park Row." Mr.. Heat on
was bern and bred a country boy, hence
the genius of his Homespun. Gotham
and Park Row are the poets familiar
stamping ground of manhood's years.
The other two seotions comprise verse OF
a misc silaneous character dictated by the
promptings Of the poetic emotion from
time TO time.
The Homespun verses are particularly
good. They strike the Tyre as truly and
as effectively for the reader as anything
in the way Of country folk verse that we
