You may say that you have failed

whose soul was imprisoned in his

generous genial lover Of his kind, is no

Emerson on Lincoln.

The president impressed me more
fayorably than had hoped. A franl
sincere, wellmeaning man, with a
lawyers habit Of mind, good, clear
statement of his fact, correct enough
not vulgar, as described; but with a
sort of boyish cheerfulness, or that
kind of sincerity and jolly good mean
ing that our class meetings on com,
mencement days show, in telling our
old stories over. When he has made
bis remark, he looks up at you with
great satisfaction, and shows all his
white teeth, and laughs. He argued
to Sumner the whole case of Gordon,
the slave trader, point by point, and
added that he was not quite satisfied
yet, and meant to refresh his memory
by looking again at the evidence. All
this showed a fidelity and conscl.
entiousness very honorable to him,
When | was introduced to him, he

LINCOLN FAMILY RELICS.
Kept for Years In the Carrot Of an
Old House In North Scituate.
Massachusetts,.

The andirons represented by the ac-
companying picture were made in the
early years of the eighteenth century
by Mordecai Lincoln, the paternal an.
cestor of Abraham Lincoln.
They are of forged iron, the ma
terial being reduced from ore found in
Pembroke and East Bridgewater.
The maker Of the dogs was a son Of
Samuel Lincoln, who settled in Hing
ham seventeen or eighteen years af'
ter the landing of the Pilgrims. This
son established mills for grinding
grain, for saving out boards and other
building material, and one for the ex'
traction Of iron from the rather in.

The real value of the tradition lies
In its clear assertion of the fact that
Lincoln was one of the humble PEG.
pie who grew to high estate. That Is
true, and because the tradition put the
truth in form that every one could
grasp, it has survived.
