LINCOLN IN A "NIGHTIE,

Commencing when q recent volume
of Life and Letters of John Hay
Penn" writes in the Evening Bulletin.
Lincoln going about i'm his night
gown in the White House has been
heard of before: Hay tells how the
President came into his office at mid
night in his shirt with a volume of
Hoods works, in order to show him
and Nicolay the carcature, An Un-
seemed utterly Unconscious that he.
with his shirt hanging about his long
legs and setting out behind him like
the tail feathers of an enormous os-
trich, was infinitely funnier than any,
thing in the book he was laughing at"
On another occasion the President
came in last night in his shirt and
from his works at spotsylvania and
our pursuit. ] complimented him on
the amount of underpinning he still
has left and he said he weighed $50
would appear to think of himself as
IL he Were an old man. When he was
only thirty mine, he said that he was
old. In the closing year of his life
when he was hfty-five, he said of an
address which he wrote and afterwards
read. Not very graceful. but I am
for the manner of doing things" Lin
coin was very seldom moved to the
utterance of quick or heated words in
his contact with men. But on one oc-
ley Field. of New York who wanted
him TO remove Seward, went a little too
far In provoking him. For once i'm
my life" he afterwards said to Hay. "T
rather gave my temper the rein and
talked to those men pretty ID
plainly" A few months before his
death the remark was made to him by
Fox, the Assistant Secretary of the
Navy, that n retribution had over
taken John p. Hale and Henry Winter
cially malignant to u.s." But Lincoln did
not reply in n like spirit You have
more" he said, of that feeling of per-
may have too little of 1t. A man has
not time to spend half his life in quar-
rels. If any man ceases to attack me,
l never remember the past again."
No man in or out of the White
House saw Lincoln at closer range
than Hay; but he seems never to have
become small under the closeness of
the view.

He had been the honor man in his
