LINCOLN.

Before another Issue OF the enron

have been appropriately observed IN
many states : it should be in all.
Abraham Lincoln was q typical
American. He derived none OF his
great attributes from any foreign
sources. From birth to manhood he
was in contact solely with the ins;i-
tuti6ns of his county. In all that he
ever did or said no inspiration can be
found that was not of the Republic.
God. thus prepared him to save it by
endowing him with that unity Of
principle and singleness Of action
which comprahended the national
life aud being Of the United States.
In these peculiarities he stands in So
Iitary and unapproachable grandeur
among American statesmen.
The lesson which is taught by his
matchloss and unparalleled character
Ia that the United States should be
guided and will be preserved by con-
sulting and maintaining what WASH
ington called its primary interests. !"

what the correspondent referred to has
to say of one particular district:
To the Editor of the Leader:
The rush of the land seekers will be
to the prairie provinces of the Domin-
ion of Canada. The allurements Of a
soil that yields 40 bushels OF wheat to
the acre are too great TO be resisted
and an immense migration from this
country may be confidently predicted.
People here laughed at first at the idea
of any one leaving the United States
for Canada. but the Dominion authori-
ties knew they had good thing and
they stuck TO it. Their officials evident
ly knew the value of printers ink. They
spared no expense in letting the people
of this country know that these lands
were there and that they We're exactly
as represented. They did more. They
sent out specimens of the crops raised
and samples of the grain. We have
had them here at four consecutive
street fairs presided over by-one OF
their ablest immigration officers. This
gentleman spared no pains. He ex-
planned the value of the lands and the
richness of the soil from morning to
night to all comers.
"All this told in the long run. Sew
eral went up from here to spy out the
land and. like Caleb. the son of Jepun-
neh. and Joshua, the son of Nun,
brought back good report and now
some ten families will leave here in a
few weeks for Saskatoon TO settle upon
farms there. and others are preparing
TO follow. OF course many will appear
shocked at the idea Of any one leaving
the Stars and Stripes for the Union
Jack, but patriotism is but nomencla-
ture after all, and our experience has
been that in nine hundred and ninety
nine cases out of thousand, a man is
the most patriotic where he can make
the most money and do the most harm
to those whom he hates"

Illustration Of the irish Aptuess in
Use Of Language.
II Ireland is the Isle OF bulls, it Is
also the home Of happy phrases. In no
other country have the uneducated such

words-and this Notwithstanding that
other gift Of tiuency that makes them
voluminous as we'll as picturesque in

Canon Staveley, in recent article
chiefly devoted to the sayings of Irish
clerics. has given some quotations from
the comments Of their parishiOners. He
relates that two old women were over
heard remarking on Canon Bagot,
dignified gentleman of impressive per-
son, as he descended the steps Of the
Synod Hall.
"Biddy." queried one. who's that big

The subject OF this expressive phrase
had conspicuous brain power as well as
buttons. and was himself capable OF
quick wit and neat turns Of language.
On one occasion, at Athy, where his
work then lay. he received call from
the archbishop. whom he induced to
visit new coffee-house which had just
been opened In the interests Of tenn
perance. Naturally the distinguished
guest was served with a sample cup
Of coffee. He tasted It. while Canon
Bagot and the manager waited in COM
placent expectancy Of commentator.
They were disappointed. The cup
was hastily set aside by the Bishop,
who calculated with prolonged and un-
mistakable emphasis:

Then the manager suddenly remem-
bered. "Oh. your grace" he explained.

that such practice should be stopped
