(;.i. r0i, 4 1..T. in his "sketch of Public Men," gives the fgllowing description of the memorable journey of,President LINCOLN from .Philadel phia to Washington just previons to his inauguration. Who will ever forget Friday, the 22d of February; '1861,' when Abra ham Lincoln rode down Chestnut street, Philadelphia, from the Conti nental Hotel, for the purpose of rais ing the American flag in front of In dependence Hall? The spot, newly sanctified,.by that patriotic deed, haii recently been additionally hallowed by an exquisite marble life-Sized stat ue, of Washington, executed by that fine artist, Bailie, and paid for by the contributions of the public school children of the First .SchOol district of Pennsylvania. _ All his speeches on his way to Washington seemed to be pervaded by consciousness of his' danger and determination to do his duty'. H. was greeted by affectionate crowds at' every statical; but 1w be.appreeith ed ThiladelOhis•he became storoxsel nous and resolved. In his reply to Mayor Henry, of that city, on the 21st of February, he saidh "You have expressed the wish, in , which I join, that it were convenient for me to remain long enough -to consult, or rather to.listen to, those breathings arising within the consecrated walls in which 'the Constitution of the United States, and, will add, the Declaration •of Ib dep were Originally framed and adopted. All my political warfare has been in fa- Yor of those teachings. May my right hcind forged its cunning and my longue cleave to the,roof of my mouth. if ever prove fa's.! to those teachings." The next day fie was escorted to Independence Hall. 'lt was early winter morning, and as the President had to visit thelLegislature at Har risparg. in the afternoon. in a special train 'that was to leave at 8.30, what was to be dune had to be done qnick , ly. In front of the ancient Temple of Liberty a platform was erected, from which Mr. Lincoln was to raise the national flag with its thirty-four stars. As he approached the Bathed spot, in a earrings drawn by four white horses, escorted' by the Scott Legion, with the flag they carried to victory in Mexico twelve years before o the Beene:wail hi f ,khly dramatic. The whole - populace' was in the streets, and their excitement and enthusiasm baffled description. It recalled Shake peare's picture of Bollingbroke's en trance into London: You would have thought the very windows spake So man greedy looks of young and old T easements darted their de-trine eyes Upon is visage ; and , that all the walls, With painted imagery, had said at once "Jean preserve thee! Wi-lcome Bodingbroker Whil,t be, from one a ide to the other Bareheaded, lower than his proud steed= Beopake them thus : " I thank you, country ' men ;" - - And this still !Mpg, thus be passed along. Leaving the carnage at the door, ho entered, uncovered, the sacred Hall of Independence. 'And there it was that he used the .language that now sounds like a solemn prophecy: The Declaration of Independence gave liberty, not alone to the people of this country, but- hope for, the world for ail future time.' It was that which g,:ive promise that in our time the weig'its should be lifted from the shoulders of all men, and 'that all should hue- an equal chance. This is the sentiment embodied in 'the Dec laration of Indspendenee. • Now,• my friends, can this country ,be' saved upon that basis? If it can, 5. will consider myself one of the happiest 'men in the world ill can save it.

To preventth4Tledge of this' change of e from being telegraphed to tinore,Henty San ford, Esq., one iof Ale officers of Adams' Express, suggested ,that the wires should be cut sonie 'distance from Harrisburg, which wait\ acconl ing,ly done. And now for :a statement not generally known, and fo the that time published in the very in •..r. eating book entitled "Massachnset During the War," prepared by Gen. William Schonler, adjutant general under Governors Banks and Andrew (a monument of industry and patri °tittle), which, , notwithstanding. its length, will be read with deep , inter est. This true history of Mr. Lin coln's perilous journey -to Washing ton, in 1861, and the way he escaped death,haveneverbeen printed before. The narrative was . written by Samuel M. Felten, late president of.the Phil adelphia and Baltimore Railroad Company, in - 1862, at the request of Mr. Sibley, librarian of Harvard Uth versily,-but it-was not completed un til lately, when it was sent to Gen eral Schouler, with other valuable material, by lift. Felton. Mr. Felton is a native of Massachusetts, and a brother of the late president of Har vard University. He was born in West Newbury, Essex c ounty, Mass., July 17, 1809, and graduated at Har vard in the class of 1834. His services in the cause of the Union and good governinent are therefore a part of the renown of that . Commonwealth, His narrative is as follows: • It came to. my knowledge ih the early part of 189, first by rumors and then from evidence which I could not doubt, that there was a deep-laid conspiracy to capture Washington, destroy all the avenues leading to it from the North, Eatit and West, and thus prevent the inauguration of Mr. Lincoln in the Capitol of the country; and if this plot did not succeed, then to murder him while on his way to the capital, and-' . thus inaugurate - a revolution which should end in es tablishing a 'Southern Confederacy, uniting all the slave States, while it was imagined that the North would be divided into separate cliques, each striving for the destruction of the other. Early in the year filiss Dix, the philanthropist, came into my office on a Saturday afternoon. I had known her - for some years as one engaged in alleviating the sufferingsi of the afflicted. Her occupation had brought her in contact with the prominent men South. In visiting hospitals, she had become familiar with thestructure of Southern socie ty, and also with the working of its political machinery. She statedlhat she had an important communication to make to me personally; and after closing my door, I listened attentive: ly to what she had to say for more than an hour. She put in a tangible and reliable shape, by the facts she related; what before 1. had heard in numerous and detachaparcels. The sum of % it all, was that there was then an exthhsive and organized conspira cy throughout the South to seize up on Washington, with its archives and records, and then declare the South ern conspirators defacto the Govern nient of the United States. The whole was to be a coup &etal. At the same time, theywere to cut off all modes of communication between Washington and the North, East, or West, and thus prevent the triuurportation of 'troops to wrest the capital from the linridief -the insurgents. Mr. Lin. coin's inauguration was . thus to be prevented, or his life was to fall a sacrifice to the attempt at inaugura tion. In fact, troops were then drill ing on the line - ol our road, and the Washington and Annapolis line, and other lines; and they• were sworn to obey- the command of their leaders, and the leaders were banded to cap ture Washington. -As soon as -the interview *as ended, I called Mr. N. P. Tris into my office, and told him I wanted hini to go to Washington that - night and communicate. these facts to General Scott. I also fur nisbed him with some data as to the other routes to Washington that Right- be adopted in case the direct "chute was cut off. One was the Del aware Railroad to Seeford,and thence op the Ctiesapeske aid Potomac tb 'Washington,.:or to • Annapolis ; and thence to 'Thathington; another to Perryeille, and thence to Annapolis and Washington. Mr- Trist left Uutt night, andnivired in Washington at Skt *int *wain, which woe ba 2252 MU: puns. Suni:lay. He immediately had an in , tervies with General Knott, who told him he hadLforeseen the trouble that its coming, and in October previous bad Made - a communication to the President, predicting . trouble . at 'the Santis, and urging strongly the gar risoning of all the Southern; forts and arsenals with forces sufficient tohold theta, but that his advice. bad been unheeded; nothing had been done, and he feared nothing would be done;', that he was powerless, and that he feared Mr. Lincoln would be obliged tp be inaugurated into office at Phil adelphia. He should, howeve- do all he could to bring'troops to Wash ington sufficient to make it' aecure; but-he bad no influence with the Ad inlietration, and feared the worst consequences. Thus matters - stood on Mr. Trist's visit to Washington, and dam they stood for some time afterwards. About this time—a few days( subsequent, however— i n gentle man from Baltimore came: out to Back bridge; about five miles this aide of the-:city, and told the bridie . -keeper: that he bad come to giveinformation which had come to his knowledge c i f vital importance to the road, which he wished comtnuei cated. to me. The nature of this com munication was that. a party was then organized in Baltimore to burn our bridges in case Mr. Lincoln came over the road, or in ease We attempt ed to carry troops for the defence of Washington. The party, at the time, had combustible materials prepared to pour over the bridged, and were .to disguise themselves as negroes and be at the bridge just before the train in which Mr. Lincoln travelled had arrived. The bridge was then to be burned, the train attacked, and Mr. Lincoln 'to be put out of the way. This man appeared to be a gentleman, and in. earnest, and honest in what he said; bat he would not give his name, nor allow any inquiries to be made as to his name or exact abode, as he said his life would be in peril were it known that he had given this information; but if we would not at tempt to find him out, he would con tinue to come and give information'. He came subsequently
