RepnbHcu re proverbially ungrateful, but
few ieople have been bo situated aa to appr
eiatein its fullest sense the truth of this stale
aphorism as the wife of him for whom a coun
try went into mourning, and whose life was
sacrificed through his devotion to its hpliest
ambition. When Abraham Linooln perished
Zmn the wounds inflicted upon him by the
bullet of the assassin, the whole United States
ihed tears and draped itself in funereal garb.
Men moved about with solemn and sorrow
ful tread, and bore tipon their faces the ex
pression of the deepest grief. But all thia was
selfish; they felt that the country had sus
tained loss, in that that they were aggrieved.
None thought of the widow, left alone in the
treat houee, over which the deep shadow of a
eudden calamity had settled with a fearful pre
Bence. Days passed; the who in the pride
and grandeur of a husband's love and pre
ference had lorded it within these spacious
balls left there in humble weeda, seeking a
rlaoe where she might rest and pay the tribute

greatness.
Jt was to he expected that the men whom
be had served and the party which had ob
tained the sacrifice of his life would place the
widow and family of Abraham Lincoln be
yond the reach of want, but the spirit of this
party and their individual character were well
ghown in the opposition to a proposition to
appropriate the paltry sum accruing to the
deceased in right of the four years' term upon
which he had entered. Mrs. Lincoln, indig
nant at this almost insult offered to the
memory of her husband, left Washington and
proceeded to his adopted State.
Springfield, the former residence of Mr.
Lincoln, had never been a favorite spot with
her; consequently, a proposal to buy a house
in Chicago, in a fitting locality, was eagerly
accepted by her, and after a short interchange
of ideas she became the purchaser of a re
sidence in the Western metropolis. Great
injustice has been done Mrs. Lincoln in sup
posing that her elevation to the White House
found her unprepared for its duties and unfit
for the assumption of the dignity appertaining
to such a high office. This is certainly a mis
take. Mrs. Lincoln stepped into the position
certainly unexpectedly, but filled it with ease
and grace, and throughout conducted herself
in many trying situations with a dignity that
could not be surpassed in one born to rule.
It has been said of Mrs. Lincoin that she
was extravagant, but this is but another of
the calumnies uttered against the woman
whose greatest fault perhaps was that she ex
erted her natural influence over her husband
for the benefit of those whom she thought
were his friends. No doubt she received pre
sents, but they came to her simply as expres
sions of courteous attention to the wife of the
nation's chief. Upon her retirement to Chi
cago, the excitement attending the obsequies
Of the lamented President having subsided,
and her natural grief being somewhat softened
With time, Mrs. Lincoln felt some
mortification at her inability to. main
tain the style to which she had become
accustomed in the White House, and which,
no doubt, in true wifely spirit, she deemed
becoming the widow of such a man as Abra
ham Lincoln. That she lived above her means
is not denied; but what woman is there in the
country who, under similar circumstances,
Would not have done the same? Of the
$110,000 SWOrn to as her husband's estate,
Imt a small portion was within her control.
First, there were certain liabilities to be re
lieved, and after that the portions accruing to
the children were to be deducted from this
amount, thus leaving her but a comparatively
email sum within her personal control.
When Mrs. Lincoln first conceived the idea
of parting with her wearing apparel as a means
of obtaining money, it was with great diffidence
that she engaged in the undertaking. She
first consulted her former modiste, Mrs, Eliza
beth Reckly, upon whose judgment and dia
tretion she had great reliance. She was very
loth to part with several articles, albeit they
Were useless to her in her reduced condition;
Irat having resolved on the sacrifice, she of
course became interested in obtaining the
Lighest possible price. '
Having placed the matter in the hands of
Mr. Brady, some correspondence necessarily
ensued between the parties never intended to
le made public, but subsequently obliged to be
published, if only in self-defense. No one
xegTetB more than Mrs. Linooln the publicity
that has been given to the efforts that she has
wade to dispose of these superfluous relics of
former greatness; to her they are utterly use
less, and in disposing of them she is but fol
lowing, the example of crowned heads, who
thus get rid of their outre garments, without
exciting any curiosity or impertinent com
ment. She undoubtedly had a right to expect
that her eflorts in this regard would be nn ler
Etood and appreciated, more particularly by
those whom she had served.
But nothing is more true than the utterance
f the Scottish bard, "Man's inhumanity to
man makes countless thousands mourn.
Those very individuals whom she had best
served were the last -to respond, and weeks
have elasped since these Roods were first
offered for sale, and as yet they await a pur
chaser.
A subscription for Mrs. Lincoln having been
started, this has been taken advantage of by
her under the painful circumstances in which
she is placed, and Mr. Brady has been autho
rized to receive subscriptions for her benefit.
It is certainly belittling the country that
this lady, to whom full justice has never bei'ii
. done because of the rivalry of politicians,
should be compelled to appear as a mendicant
"before the American public. The widow of a
deceased private soldier receives from the
Government a pension equal to one-half the
pay of a soldier doing duty; then why should
the widow of the Commander-in-Chief of the
Army and Navy be left to the charity of the
people for the means of maintaining a positiou
becoming her antecedents and dignity! N. Y.

MRS. LINCOLN'S WARDROBE.
From the N. Y. Independent.
"Scandal, like death, is common to all "
says "Lady Teazle," in the-play. Mrs. Lin
coln certainly had her full share of it, from the
time She entered the White House till she went
out. Now, like some of our unlucky war
heroes, she has capped the climax of her mis
fortunes by writing a letter. Everybody is, 0f
course, criticizing her. Granted that she de
serves a good deal of it; granted that she
ought not to have bought dry goods on so large
a scale, nor to have allowed dear friends to do
It for her. Granted that her way of selling
them is more unfortunate than her way of
getting them; that her letter was the worst
part of the bargain, and the postscript the
worst part ot the letter. What thenf Is there
no moral to be drawn from thisf Ladies, are
there no other offenders? Who shall throw
the tot fitcne?
THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY,
We nin e heard from an eye-witness a de
scription of the simple domestlo life of Mr.
and Mrs. Lincoln, in their modest Western
home; how she, after cooking her husband s
dinner with her own hands, would run aoross
to the little offloa and call him to the twelve
o'clock meal. No jewelry tlwn no point
lace dresses, no camel's hair shawls. There
is many a single item in her present schedule
which would cover the whole probable value
of her then costume.
If the White House transformed the whole
nature of Mrs. Lincoln as completely as it
changed her wardrebe, who is responsible T
When she went there, she found all fashion
able sooiety in Washington leagued to support
the Rebel side. To be the wife of a Republi
can President was in itself an "unfashionable"
position. It was assumed at the outset that
she was an ignorant Western woman, utterly
unfit for any eminent social position. "Mrs.
Jefferson Davis was at least a lady," was the
Parthian arrow sent back by the she-secessionists,
as they lied to Dixie. And fashion
able toadies, from Baltimore to Boston,
echoed the lament. Who does not remember
the anecdotes that were sent flying through
the land, chiefly manufactured out of the
whole cloth, in which Mrs. Lincoln was de
scribed as a sort of female Jack Cade, ludi
crously elevated into a place beyond her.
proper station f
What should she do to be saved before such
a tribunal f Of eourse. foolish advisers
whispered, The first essential is dress. Ex
perienced counsellors suggested "point lace;"
and. she bought point lace. A jury of matrons
found a case of destitution of camel's hair;
and she bought India shawls. Others advised
a demonstration in the way oi jewelry; and
she demonstrated. Or, if she did not buy
these things, others bought them for her in
hopes to find favor at court.
This is the oilense of which sue stands self-
convicted of having lived beyond her means,
in the way of wardrobe. At a time when all
"good society" was calling upon her to be a
lady, she fell into the common delusion that
to be a lady is to have a point lace dress. No
other serious complaint is urged. It is not
even whispered that she was neglectful of her
duties as a wife and mother. Though she
never was a favorite of the nation, yet there
never rested on her even such a shadow of
distrust as now strangely rests on Victoria,
once so idolized. The only charge against her
is, that, when suddenly raised to a position
that would have been trying to the wisest
woman, she failed to prove herself wise; that
she tried to run the foolish race of fashion, and
broke down, and now honestly wishes to get
rid of some of the relics of her folly. If this
be all if Ehe is really bent on reforming her
personal toilette she is, for once at least, set
ting a good example.
But suppose the influences around Mrs.
Lincoln had Wen widely different. Suppose
that she, on going to Washington, had found
dignity and good taste the prevailing tone of
society. Suppose that she had found herself
among really cultivated people, where women
were expected to have wit and intelligence,
and not to be merely fashion-plates. Then
she would have tried to adapt herself to that
social demand. She would have been tempted
to lit herself for her new position, in brains as
well as in wardrobe to make herself a help
meet to her husband in his vast duties to
become a power in Washington society for
good, and not for evil. Then she might have
been a different woman, and the whole nation
would have felt the difference. Did she choose
an ambition less noble 1 If she did, it was in
great measure the fault of the very people who
are HOW satirising tlie folHea tly t'oterl.
And, beyond all this, it is the fault of the
position we still assign to women, as politi
cal ciphers, untrained for any important pub
lic position. There is at this moment travel
ling in America a young English viscountess,
connected with the great governing families of
England, who puts to shame most of the
American women who talk with her, by her
knowledge of public affairs, and her intelli
gent interest in all great questions. Had
Mrs. Lincoln ueen accustomed irom ner girl
hood to think that she also, as well as her
furture husband, was in a degree responsible
for the condition of the nation, she would have
gone to the White House prepared to be of
some service to that nation, cue would nave
had for her Btandard of usefulness, not merely
a lay ligure, to be decked with so much nnery,
but
"A perfect woman, nobly planned
To warn, to comfort, to oamuiand."
When we give the suffrage to women, we
may hope to see such women. While we
deny them the education which suffrage gives
their brothers, we cannot blame them for the
want of it. While we systematically train
them to be dolls, we must not savagely de
nounce them for having too costly a wardrobe
of doll's clothes.

Dkh.limj Glass with Sulphuric Acid. A
foreign journal says Dr. Lunge employs
diluted sulphuric acid to drill glass. When
ever he wants a holo in the side of a bottlrt, ho
sends it, with some dilute (1:5) sulphurio
acid, to the blacksmith, who drills in it with a
hand-brace a hole of a quarter-inch diameter.
This hole is then widened to the required size
by means of a triangular or round file, again
wetted with the acid. He also finds the acid
a great help when making gradations on litre
llasks, etc. Thera is hardly any smell per
ceptible during the work, which proves how
little the acid acts upon the tools, undoubtedly
owing to their temper; but each time after
use, he takes the precaution to wash and dry
the files at cm e.
