was sell worn and dilapidated; hiA
umbrella was substantial, but of a
faded green, and for an outer garment
he wore a short circular blue cloak,
says Henry C. Whitney in Leslies
Weekly. He commenced to dress
better in the spring of 1858, and when
he was absent from home, on political
President, he had a servant who kept
him considerably "slicked up" but he
frequently had to reason him into
fashionable attire by telling him that
his appearance was official He
probably had as little taste or style
about dress or attire as any man who
was ever born. He simply wore
clothes because it was needful and
customary; whether they fitted or
looked well was entirely above or be-
meath his knowledge. He had no re-
gard for trivial things, or for mere
forms, manners. politeness, etiquette,
official formalities, fine clothes, rou-
tine or red-tape; he disdained a bill
of fare at table, a program at thea
ter, or a license to get married. The
pleadings in a lawsuit, the formal
compliments on a social introduction,
the exordium or peroration of a
speech he either wholly ignored or
cut as short as he could.
In all his political campaigns, the
music flags and bunting were nothing
to him; he was thinking rather of the
statistics-how many votes were prob
able, and what the tendencies ol
political thought were to chanS
opinions and votes. And he also had
a thorough contempt for the office of
bailiff or crier of court, doorkeeper
of a legislative or Congressional body,
tloorwalker in a store. drum-major in
band, or even of mayor of city or
town. He disliked to be called "Mr.
President" or even Mr.. Lincoln by
his intimates; he called men by their

little fellow bowed himself out feeling
that the President, though great
man, was at the same time kindly
one.

Slower of growth, and devoid alto
gether of many brilliant qualities
which Douglas possessed, says William
G. Brown in the February Atlantic.
Lincoln nevertheless outreached him
by the measure of the two gifts he
lacked-the twin gifts of humor and
OF brooding melancholy. Bottomed by
the one in LONELINESS, his character
was by the other drawn upward to
the height of human nobility and as
plration. His great capacity of pain,
which but for his buffoonery would no
doubt have made him mad, was the
source of his rarest eXcellencies. Fa-
miliar with squalor, and hospitable to
vulgarity, his mind was yet tenanted
by sorrow, place of midnight wrest-
lings. In him as never before in any
other man, were high and low things
mated, and awkwardness and ungain-
liness and uncouthness justified in
their uses. At once coarser than his
rival and infinitely more refined and
gentle, he had mastered lessons which
the other had never found the needAf
learning. or else had learned too read
lily and then dismissed.

KNEW WHERE LINCOLN STOOD
Simple Way in Which He Manifested
His Earnestness.

While | was an inmate of Gleason
Sanitarium, Elmira, N, Y, heard the
following anecdote of Abraham Lin
coin. We had at the sanitarium very
old gentleman by the name of z. C.
Robbins. He was of New Hampshire
by birth, but had lived in Washington
for fifty years, his business being a
patent lawyer. He was intimately ac-
quainted with Mr.. Lincoln and was
selected by him as chairman of the
first police commissioners after his in
auguration in 1861. To this Mr.. Rob
bins | owe the recital of the story to
which l have alluded. He said:
After the emancipation proclamation
had been written, it will be remem-
bered, six months We're given to the
Confederates to lay down their arms
and come back to the Union, before it
was to go in force. Providing the
South returned to the allegiance to the
Union as of yore. the proclamation
was not to be issued But God was
working out the destiny of this ma
ton, and not man, and the result is
known to history.
The early elections had gone against
the Republican party. Republicans be-
came alarmed. A tremendous press
ure was brought to bear upon Lincoln
to withdraw the threatened issue of
the proclamation, upon the day fixed.
They declared that it was against the
spirit and wish of the people, and
would ruin the party. Letters came
pouring in from every state in the
Union begging, imploring, sometimes
threatening, and it was feared by
few stanch anti-slavery men of the
country that Mr.. Lincoln could not
withstand the pressure. But he said
nothing, kept his own counsel, and no
man knew his mind.
One day about week before the
time in which the proclamation was
to go into force, Mr.. Robbins, as was
his privilege, walked into the Office of
Mr.. Nicolay, private secretary to Mr.
Lincoln. He was feeling very anx-
| ious, for it was dark and gloomy
! time for the country. Mr.. Lincolns
room adjoined that of Mr.. Nicolay, and
while Mr.. Robbins was sitting at an
| open fire, talking to Mr.. Nicolay, Mr.
Lincoln walked in, put his hand upon
the shoulder of Mr.. Robbins and said:
We'll old friend, the important day
draws near"
Yes" replied Mr.. Robbins. and I
hope there will be no backing down or
! backing out on your part"
