Light and voice falls upon eye and ear

But this knowledge. after all. was
merely incidental. Moses real quail

Governor of the State of Orizaba.
At the outbreak of the war between
the States he was one of the first to
assist, in arousing the martial spirit
of the State, and he was among the
first soldiers of the South to see ac-

CHARLES SUMMER.

President Lincoln Had a Bitter Dislike
for the Massachusetts Senator.
Harper's Monthly.
I have spoken of an exception of the
rule of the Presidents freedom from
personal feeling in his relation to the
public men of the time. That exception
was Charles Sumner. 1t Is curious
fact that man who was one of the
leaders In the party which had twice
chosen Mr.. Lincoln to be President. who
was an exponent of the belief which
determined the most momentous action
of Mr.. Lincoln's career-the emancipa-
ton of the slave-should' have been the
only man, so far as my knowledge goes,
| to obtain the Presidents bitter dislike.
Senator Sumner was fne-looking
man. His presence was tall and COM
handing; he was we'll groomed. even
exquisite in his appointments. He af-
fected the English type in his clothes,
wearing large checks and plaids. and
was fond of displaying white spats--
which were not at any time often seen
| upon our statesmen. He was friend
of the Chases, a particular warm friend
of Kate Chase Sprague, who sympathiz-
ed with him in his matrimonial diff
culties. He was also curious enough,
| in view of his relationship both to the
Chases and to Mr.. Lincoln. friend of
Mrs. Lincoln. Not only was he present
at state receptions and dinners (Which.
of course. would argue nothing). but
he was Mrs. Lincolns escort at the
second inaugural ball especially in
| yited. he told friend. by Mr.. Lincoln;
and he was a member with Senator
and Mrs. Harlan. the future father-in-
| law and mother-in law of Robert Lin
coin, of the gay party which Mrs. Lin
coin brought down to City Point after
| the fall of Richmond.
Whatever were his grounds for dis
| like of Sumner the President did not
| Interfere with the friendchip of Mrs.
Lincoln for Sumner, nor the admiration
which the Massachusetts, Senator pub
| licly testified to Mrs. Lincoln's really
brilliant mind 1t seemed to have been
| entirely personal to himself.
| The antipathy was none the less in
| tense. 1t has never been disclosed that
Mr. lincoln went to the length of re-
| fusing Mr.. Sumner admission to his
| home. The President instructed Ell
| phonso Dunn, who was on duty in the
corridor on that occasion. not to allow
allow Charles Sumner to enter the
White House. This is a matter of my
personal knowledge. 1t must have been
a-serious ofrense which could have in
duced so charitable man and a man so
filed with kindness as was President
Lincoln to take measure apparently so
severe. ...

National Guard to Stay
IN State !.
TO CAMP JULY AND AUGUST
None Of the Commands Rut the
Artillers to Leave Alabama.
Montgomery and Selma to BE the
Scenes of the Annual Outing
and Drill of Mflitiamen
of State.

The places and the time of the en-
campments Of the several bodies of
the State troops were decided yester-
day by the State Military Board, which
had the counsel, by invitation, Of the
commanders of the infantry regiments,
the squadron of cavalry, and the bat
talon Of artillery.
The times of encampment range from
July /. when the artillery batteries will
encamp' with United States regulars
near Fort Moultrie, South Carolina, into
the middle of August. The State
troops. except the artillery, will en-
camp either at Montgomery or Selma.
The plan to take the soldiers of the
State National Guard to jamestown
could not be contaminated. When
Adjutant- General Bib Graves sue
ceeded in inducing the War Depart
ment of the Federal Government to
take four companies of artillery into
camp with the regulars near Fort
Moultrie, it was hoped that the rest of
the troops could be sent to jamestown
Exposition. But subsequent corre-
spondeuce with the railway companies,
which stated that they could not pos
sibly offer special rates, convinced Cen
eral Graves that the plan was mex
pedient, and 1t had to be put aside.
At the meeting yesterday were Adju-
tant-General Bibb Graves, Gen. r. f.
Lfgon and Gen. b. l.. Holt, the state
Military Board; Col. r. B. du Mont OF
the LIST regiment of infantry; Col. c. r.
Bricken of the End regiment of in
fantry. and Col. w. H. McKleroy of
the 3rd regiment of infantry; Major
s. T. Westcott of the LIST battalion of
artillery, and Major b. F. Noble of
the LIST squadron of cavalry. They
discussed all the plans proposed and
finally agreed that, 1t would not be
feasible to send the Alabama National
Guard 20 jamestown.
According to the schedule adopted
yesterday. the encampments of the sew
eral bodies of troops will be:
First regiment of infantry. at Mont
gomery, second week of August.
