II What of that letter to Mrs. Bixby,

died gloriously on the field of battle?"
He ended this note to an obscure

and socalled because all the reporters,
conquered by his eloquence, forgot to
take notes? One young lawyer kept
his head better than the others and
managed to get some shorthand notes.
From these and from a remarkable
memory he wrote down years after
what all surviving hearers unite in
calling an accurate rendering of this
unique speech.
Much has been written of Lincoln's
humor-as though he were a mere
jOkemaker.
To me this humor was a far bigger
and grander thing than his fooling.
His anecdotes, brilliant and illum-
mating as they were, like summer
lighting, merely indicated the remote
storm below the horizon. His humor
was his sanity-his balance. He knew
how to do the right as he saw the
right and bide the well done" of the
future.
This Illinois railsplitter reminds me
Of no one so much as Jesus, the son of
the Nazarene carpenter. Lincoln was
second only to one in being the tallest,
saddest, wlsest, most humorous man
since time was.

yours very truly,
"A. LINCOLN"
The disastrous defeat of Chancel-
louisville was due to Hooker's failure
to use all his men, an error of judy
ment against which Lincoln had warn
ed him.
When Hooker wanted to attack the
Confederate rear at Fredericksburg,
Lincoln dissuaded him in a graphic
smile: "In one word, would not take
any risk of being entangled upon the
river, like an OK jumped half over g
fence and liable to be torn by dogs
front and rear without a fair chance
to gore one way or kick the other"
And he likewise vetoed the plan of ad-
vancing on Richmond at this juno
ture, reminding Hooker that Lees
army, and not Richmond, is your true
objective point. !. Fight him, too.
when opportunity offers. If he stays
where he is, fret him and fret him."
Lincoln, by kind of intuition, d.
vined the right thing to do. He had
no real military experience. When he
was made captain Of tho SaDganon
county company in the Black Hawk
war, he did not know how to get his
men (marching 20 abreast) through q
gate, and he shouted: "This company
is dismissed for two minutes, when it
will fall in again on the other side Of
the gate"
When member of the house Of
representatives, Mr.. Lincoln thus de-
scribed his military career in depre-
eating the efforts Of General Cass's
friends to make it appear that the
latter was great military hero. by
the way, Mr.. Speaker, do you know I
am a military hero? Yes, sir, in the
days of the Black Hawk war I fought,
bled aud came away. Speaking Of
(, General Cass's career reminds me of
my own. I was not at Stillman's de-
