A POSITIVE CURE FOR
DYSPEPSIA.
TELE GREAT AMERICAN
IYTe" S V. IP SX A. I" r-4
WHAT IS DYSPEPSIA P
DYSPEPSIA. HAS THE POLLOWING BYMPTOMS
' let. A constant pain or uneasiness. at the pit of the
stomach, which is caused by a permanent contraction of
the stomach upon undigested food. It generally begins
immediately or a short time after eating: is often very
Revere and obstinate. . , .
2d. Flalulence and Acidity—These .sym ptoms arise
from the indisestion of food > which ferments instead of
digesting.
ad: Costivatess and loss of appetite.—These symptoms
are the effects of the unnatural condition of food In the
stomach, and the want of pure bile i iiiii i iiiiiiii juice.
The stomach is often painfully distended by wind; the
appetite is sometimes voracious. , .• -
4th. Gloom and Depression of Spp•ltk. —This state
unfits many for the enjoyment of life. and. is canted by
the impure blood furnished by imperfect digestion: In
this
stage of the disease many persons commit suicide.
There is a constant foreboding bf evil; and an indiffe
rence and positive inability to perform the offices of life.
sth. Diarnicea.—After being firet costive, the. sufferer
is afflicted with diarrhoia, which is owing
_td a
,diseased
condition ot h the bowels, produced by the l undigested
food, which is evacuated in the same condition as when
eaten, and of course gives no strength to the system.
6th. Palms in . all parts of the system . arige.from the
antler; of impure blood upon the nerves. They are felt
chiefly in the head, aides, and breast, and in theextre
mities. In many cases there Is an uneasiness -in the
throat.with a senes of choking or suffocation; the mouth
is often clammy, with a - bad taste and furred tongue.
7th. Coluumptive Symptoms and Pat yitation of the
ileart.lifany persons pronounced as having these die
eases, have, in fact. nothing but Dyspepsia, the lung
and heart disease being only symptoms.
Bth. Couph:This is , a very frequent symptom of Dys
pepsia, and leads very often into confirmed consumption.
9th. Want of Sleep. —A very distressing symptom, re
sulting often in mental derangement.
nth. Symptoms of external relation .The pailent is
affected painfully by cold and heat, which is owing to
unnatural dryness of the skin, and the skin is often af
fected by eruptions and tettera. The gloomy .dyspeptic
avoids society as much as post ible.
11th. Vomiting. —A frequent and distressing symptom.
It relieves the pain, bat emaciates and. wears out the
patient.
12th. Dizziness. dimness of vision, headache, and
staggering in walking —These are very alarming symp
toms. which are speedily removed by our medicine; but
if neap cted are quickly followed by numbness and end
den death.
13th. —lt is impossible for us to give all the symptoms
of Dyspepsiala eo small a space, but the above are con•
sidered sufficient—if we add that the patient loses hie
memory and attention to surrounding objects, and fre
quently becomes morose and sour in disposition. We
should say. however, that pains in the joint's and stiff
ness of the limbs, which - go by the name of rheumatism
and neuralgia, are very often produced by Dyspepsia.
Also, a hardness of the muscles of the abdomen, which
become contracted and hard: and in some cases the belly
sinks, instead of being gently prominent.
DYSPEPSIA! DYSPEPSIA !! DYSPEPSIA. ! !
I, ELIZABETH BRANSON, of Brandywine, Del., for
merly ofOld Cheater. Del., do cetify that for one year
and a half .I suffered everything but death from chat
awful disease called Dyspepail„My whole system was
prostrated with weakness and nervous debility; I could
not digest my food ; if I ate even a cracker, or the small
est-amount of food, it would return just as I swallowed
it; I became so costive in my bowels that I would not
have a pastage in less than from four, and often - eight
days; under this immense suffering my mind seemed en
tirely to give way. I had dreadful horror and evil fore
bodings. I thought everybody hated me, and I hated
everybody; 1 could not hear ray husband nor my own
children; everything appeared to be-horror-stricken to
roe; I had no ambition to do anything; I lost all my
love of family
and home; I would ramble arid wander
from place to place, but could not be contented. I felt
that 1 tirae doomed to hell, and that there was no heaven
for me, and was often tempted - to commit suicide, so
near was my whole nervous system destroyed,• and also
my mind, from that awful complaint, -Dyspepsia; that
my friends thought it best to have me placed in Dr.
Kirkbride's Hospital, a; West Philadelphia. I remained
there nine weeks, and thought I was a little better, but
in a few days my dreadful complaint was raging as bad
as ever. Hearing of the wonderful cares performed by .

DR. WISHART: I have been a constant sufferer with
Dyspepsia tor the last eighteen years, during whica
time I cannot say that I ever . enjoi ed a perfectly wall
day. There were times when the symptoms were more
aggravated than at others, and then it seemed it would
be a great relief to die. I had at all times an unpleasant
feeling in my head, but latterly my sufferings so much
hammed that I became almost unlit, for brininess of any
kind. 31y mind was constantly tilled with gloomy
thoughts and forebodings, and if I attempted -to change
their current by reading, at once a sensation of icy cold
nets, in connection with a dead weight. as - it were,
rested_upon my brain ; also a feeling of sickness would
occur at the stomach, and great pain to my eyes, accom
panied - with which wet. the continued fear of. Toshio - my
I also experienced great lassitnde.debility,and nervous
ness, which made it difficult to walk by day or sleep at
night.. I became averse to society, and disposuronly to
seclusion, and having tried thel , !kill of a namber of emi
nent physicians of various schools, finally came to the
conclusion that, for this disease, at my present age, 1.5
years, there was no cure in existence: But, through
the interference of Divine Providence, to whom - .I de
voutly offer my thanks, I at last found a sovereign
remedy in your Dyspepsia. Pills and Tar Cordial, whiuh

THE ARMY FALLING RAMC FROM otrtr.uram
. -
11EADQUARTItER ABBEY tne 'PH& POTOMAO,
. IN THE FIELD, .00t. 16, 1803
On Saturday night last the entire army left the
Vicinity of Culpeper on its homeward march. We
marched along the line of the railroad from that
time until Wednesday morning, encountering, the
enemy at times, and skirmishing on/atonally,
avoiding a general engagement. 9. general action
might have been brought on at any time between
the Rappahannock and our present pviitiou i but
was reserved for Wednesd a y to wiineeb a tertelig
truil of the capabilities of our brave men in the held.
THE GREAT FIGHT AT BRISTOW STATION
In the afternoon the 2d Corps had been assigned
the arduous duty of guarding the rear of the army,
and on the morning of. Wednesday at daylight took
up.its line of march in the following order:General
}liven' ad Division leading, followed by theist Di
vision, General Caldwell, the rear being brought up
py General Webb's 2d Diviiion. .
CHANGE Or FRONT
On reaching a point near the railroad, some three
miles west of Bristow, the 2d Division took the lean;
followed by the 3d, leaving the Ist at the rear. In
this ordtr they marched to Bristow, on the south
side or the traelr_ofthe Orange and Alexandria Rail
road, with flankerisivell out on both sides and skit.
mishersAsployed.
TOPOGRAPHY.
The Orange' and - Alexandria railroad here rune in
a northeasterly and southwesterly direction over a
broken and woodyrcountry. The town of Bristow
is non eat.- But a few old chimneys point out the
place where the village once was, just at the west of
Broad run, about three miles west of Manassas
jtmetion, and half a mile west of the station. There
is a skirt of dense woods, undergrown with thick
brush, through which, on either side of the railroad
track, a tolerable road - has been cut, both of which
were used by our army on its march. On the west
side of Broad run the country is hilly up to the
woods, and somewhat overgrown with brush. The
run creases the railroad at right angles under a high
bridge, at the eastern end of which a dilapidated
windmill stands; formerly used for pumping water
for the use of the road. .
About three-fourths of a mils west of Bristow is
Cedar rod., a small stream ; but, from its depth of
mud and water, difficult to ford. On the north side
of - the track, about thirty rods west of the bridge,
is a solitary house, or rather shanty, which, though
insignificant of itself, figures somewhat extensively
In the-tight. There are here also, just back of the
shanty, three quite prominent hillocks or bumps,
upon which the rebels had planted, batteries. Also
there were several like elevations on the south side
of the track, upon which the batteries of our own
forces were located. West of Broad run, extending
for a few roads, is low ground, rooky and brushy,
affording excellent opportunities for sharpshooters.
On the east side of Broad run, for a hundred yards,
is an open plain, with a little point of timber jut
ting out perhapstwenty rode, and having its north
border about eight rods south of the railroad
NOW FON THE FIGHT
About half past twelve o'clock the advance of the
2d Corps (Gen. Webb's division) reached the east
ern edge of the wood looking out towards Broad
run. The rear of the sth Corps was just crossing
Broad run by the northernmost road, when,.as skid.
&illy as lightning and as astonishingly as a thunder
bolt from a clear sky, boom, boom, boom, came a
half dozen discharges of artillery, not a hundred
yards away. It was the enemy emerging from the
woods north of the railroad by an obscure road, and
thing upon the rear of the 6th Corps. A few shells
from the rebel battery kilted four of the Pennsyl
fania Reserves and wounded • eight others before
they could be got over the run to a place of safety on
-the eastern. side. Then a line of rebel skirmishers
appeared, creating the hill on the north of the track,
and running obliquely from the road to the upper
crossing of Broad run.
GENERAL WARREN'S MILITARY SKILL
General Warren immediately formed his plane,
and right beautifully were they carried out. Gen.
Webb , e divieion waa thrown forward along the line
of the south aide of the railroad, with its right rest
ing on Board run, and its left at the wagon road.
General Hayes' division was marched by the right
Hank and took position to the left of Webb, while
Caldwell faced the railroad ind awaited action.
A nation of Brown's battery, Company A, let
Rhode laland Artillery, was thrown across Broad
run and put in position in the open field, where it
could face the enemy and enfilade his skirmishers,
the remainder being placed on the hill just west of
the run, and bearing directly upon the maiming
enemy. On the hill to the northweet"of Brown me
Arnold's famous battery—the same which at Get
ty aburgAid•such terrible execution among the rebel
infantry. Then there were other batteries, but
their names I could not learn ; but they were not
behind their compeeriain the bloody fray.
THE FIGHT.
As soon as the rebels discovered that the rear of
the sth Corps had crossed to the east of Broad run,
and that Warren was preparing for a fight, they de
veloped two batteries in the edge of the wood, and
commenced to send their respects to.the 2d Corps.
They were close by, their most distant guns being
not over nine hundred yards from the line of Union
infantry. They had the advantage of us at first;
for they, knowing. our 'position, and having their
, bitteiies ready planted, were able to open upon us
before our line could be formed or our batteries
planted, and they knew and appreciated their ad
vantage, and right heartily did they improve it. _
BRAVERY OP OUR TROOPS.
For full ten minutes they rained their bullets and
bailed their shells with demoniac fury; but not a
man of the gallant old 2d quailed, not a gun was
dropped, not a color dipped; but, like Spartans,
they faced their foe, as if each man felt that upon
himself rested the responsibility of crushing the re•
bellion.
lAD foi ole VaNN:4 , II.I. (04. , =FAID , ON h1.4 - drell;ii./lai 04 4
Then came a hill in the awful music ; for .the
enemy, unable to stand against the terrible storm,
had fled to the woods for safety, leaving six of their
guns upon the fraid, one too badly crippled to be
brought away. When the enemy eeMed playing
upon us, and the smoke had lilted so as to exhibit
the field, and it was known that the enemy had re
tired, a detail of ten men from each regiment was
made to bring away the deserted pieces. With a
cheer which could be heard for miles, the men
bounded across the track, and climbed the opposite
hill, seized the pieces as best they could, wheeled
them into position, turned them towards the re
treating depsons. and fired a parting salvo with the
ammunition which had been designed for the
Yankees. Then the boys dragged live of them
away, shouting as they came to the south of the
track, and placed them in battery, the infantrymen
acting as artillerists, and doing wondrous works of
calnage."
A REBEL CHARGE SPOILED
Shortly after the 2d Corps got into position the
rebels tried their old tactics of massing and charging.
A dense gray body of men were seen forming be
tween the east of the woods and the run on the
elope of the hill, north of the railroad, upon which
the artillery and infantry opened at once, driving
the throng back into the woods at it* double quick.
After this mar ceuvre a second line of skirmishers
was thiown forward to the brow of the 1411 skirting
the river, and two-regiments of North - Carolina
troops—the 26th and 28th—came charging on our
extreme right over the railroad, near the bridge.
COL. HEATH'S BRIGADE DRIVES BACIL•TRE REBELS.
This post was held by Colonel Heath, commanding
the brigade which was the Ist of the 2d Division,
and consisted of the 19th Manic, 15th Massachusetts,
let Minnesota, and 82d New York. Our boys waited
for their "erring Southern brethren," who came on
with a yell, until they reached the track of the rail
road, when a volley, and another and another, sent
them homeward at a pace which defies illustration.
WHO COMMANDED THE REBELS—THEIR CONDUCT.
The brigade of Carolinians, which was commanded
by Brigadier General Heth, broke and fled, hiding
themselves behind the rooks and bushes along the
stream. This brigade of North Carolinians was
Pettigrew's: old brigade, and the men prided them
selves on their, prowess. But the men opposed to
them were too well versed in fighting to be intimi
dated, and they gave the lauded heroes the beat turn
in the shop. it was laughable to see them extricate
themselves from their dilemma. -
SURRENDER OF-THE REBEL BRIGADE
They did not dare to rise from behind their cover
when, once hid, for no sooner would a head appear
from, behind it' log, or rock, or bush, than a minie
would whistle it back to death. Run they dared not,
fight, they could not, and the only alternative left
them was to surrender at discretion, which they did
by creeping out upon all fours, without their guns,
and piteously asking our boys, like Orockett's noon
"not not to fire, as they would come in." The captured
of this brigade numbered about five hundred, and
General Reth will have to recruit before taking it
into action again.
WITHIALLWAL OF TIER IMBEL9.
.When the rebels found that the 2d Corps was,
ready and able to bold its ground, and had no notion
of leaving, a fact they discovered after about five
hours , bald fighting, they withdrew to the cover of
the dense wood in their rear, only .11ring with their
artillery when they could work themselves up to the
fighting point sufficiently to enable them to - thrust a
gun Out of the edge of the wood. Then they :, would
th e, and the flame and smoke would act as a target for
our gunners ; so the firing would be irregular and
inconstant; now chiming in peal on peal, like the
reverberations of a thunder clap, then only a shot
or two for several minutes.
WHO BORE THE WATINT OF THE TIGHT
The brunt of the fighting was done by Gen. Webb's
and Gen. 'Hayes , divisions, with the artillery; but
it was only so because Gen. Caldwell, who was on
the left, was employed in watching_a heavy force of
rebels which was massed in the woods across the
railroad, immediately in his front. •
AT DARK THE FIGHTING OBASIDD
and darkness found man full possession of the field,
the rebels having fallen back to and beyond the
Woods, having suffered the loss of six pieces of ar
tillery, two battle flags, two colonels killed, and
one taken prisoner; probably live hundred killed
an dwounded, whom they lett upon the field, and
about seven hundred and fifty prisoners.
THB BEBEL LOSS:
Among the rebel slain and left were Col. Ruffin,
of the let, and Col. Thompson, of the sth North
Carolina Cavalry. The battle flags captured were
that of the 26th forth Carolina Infantry, captured
by the 19th Blaine ' and that of the 28th North Caro
line, taken by the 52d New York. The battery cap
tut ed consisted - of one large Whitworth gun, two
fine Rodmans; and three brass field pieces. One of
these, however, was co badly broken up as to be
worthless, and was left upon the field. ' The others
were brought away; and today have been sent to
Washington. -
~ e ~} ~ ~
I ought not to pass over the capture of these guns
without mentioning an incident which illustrates the
valor 'of our men to .a remarkable degree. After
the enemy bad been driven from their guns by the
artillery and infantry combined, Gen. Warren or
dered a detail to be made of ten men from each regi
ment of the corps to bring off the pieces. This was
done in order to debar any one regiment, brigade, or
division from arrogating to itself the partaillar
honor of their capture..
The work to be done was a hazardous one ; but
the boys shouted ft@ they-started at a "double quick.
The Woods in the rear of the battery were lull of
graybacks, who, in all , probability, would prevent
their pets from falling into the hands of the Yankee
mudsills. Our Infantry and artillery would be
powerless to help, as 'a Eliot from either would be as
likely to kill one of our own as one of the rebel.
troops. But the selected men went off in the di
rection of the prizes, reached them, seized them,
turned them toward the foe, fired a parting salute
from such as the enemy,
in his haste, had leleft loaded, then commenced dragging them away by
hand
THE REBELS TRY TO RECAPTURE TER GUNS.
They had not gone far, however, when the rebels
flocked out of the woods and came down at a charge
towards them, seeing which, the, boys dropped -the
artillery, grasped their smaller arms, and`drove the
butternuts back to the pines. They then cape
back and dragged;off their captures in safety.
WE HOLD' THE FIELD

We have not lost a dollar's worth of property by

safe retreats, and the army is in excellent spirits.
DEATH Or OOL. MALLON
The brave and gallant Col. Mellon, of the 42d
(Tammany) Regiment, commanding the 3d Brigade
of the 2d Division, wee shot through the stomach,
and died in half an hour.
THE FIFTH OORFB ORDERED TO THE FRONT.
During the afternoon, while the heavy cannona
ding was going on, General , Meade sent the 6th
Corps, under General Sykes, to reinforce the second;
but they did not reach the held before dark, and then
the fortunes of the day were closed, and they could
be of no service. General Warren had won his vic
tory, and vindicated the wisdom of the power which
made him a major general.: The victory was signal and
complete.
TER REBRL PLAN AND Pre FAILURE.
I am reliably informed that the rebel Colonel
Thompson stated that General Lee's objeot was to
head us Off before feachlr.g. OentreVille, and sup
posed that when he made the attack upon Warren
lie wee at the head of the entire army with his corps.
C.'32:ffiiiehtly he only threw forward one portion of
A. P. Hill's corps, li - umbering In all about twelve
thousand men, with four batteries of artillery, in
order to hold us in check until the other corps of
Ewell, together with the two remaining divisions
of Longstreet's corps, could come up. I presume
the story is true; but they have found out their
mistake.
THE REBEL GEN. COOKE KILLED
Besides the rebels killed whom I have mentioned,
there was Brigadier General Cooke, a son of Gene
ral Philip St. George Cooke, of "the Union Army.
Rio body was left on the field.
COMPARATIVB LOBBISB
Probably our entire Jones in killed and wounded
will not reach two hundred, while those of the encl•
my will, not fall short of tlye.,lol4lced, berides the
prisoners captured., We lost none in battle except
the killed and wounded, though it is.probable a few
stragglers lell into the hands of the rebels between
Warrenton Junction and Bristow ; and such strag
glers ought to be caught by the rebels or the Devil,
and the sooner the better. I cannot learn that the
enemy has advanced since the fight came off, nor do
I think he will; but if he does he will have to . tight
us On ground or our own choosing.

The Great Champion Billiard Match.
living Hall was literally jammed on Thursday
evening upon the occasion of the above match by
the principal professors of billiards in the United
States, as well as others of less note, and a host of
amateurs and other lovers of the game. The ex
champion, Mr. Phelan,
presided, and upon the ap
pearance of Kavanagh in the arena he was received
with great applause by his admirers, and - little less
applause attended the appearance of Seereiter. Mr.
Fox acted as umpire for seereiter, Mr. O'Conner for
Kavanagh, and Mr. Stenos referee.
Bets ran high, Mr. Morrissey bet SO to 100; on See
reitaer seven times, and then. come out with it bold
ofthr of 800 to 1,000, which was not taken. Early in
the game the house was so crowded that notice was
put up that the hall was full, and during the pro
gress of the game there was quite a display of shirt
sleeves, in consequence of the heat.- At the com
mencement of the game Mr. Phelan requested the
audience not to stamp their feet when they applau
ded either of the players, as the vibration of the
floor disturbed the tablet. netwithstanding this re
quest, frequent bursts Of-applause ocourred as either
player made a line shot. or long count; but the best
of good order and•good humor prevailed throughout.
The game was commenced by Kavanagh, at about
8.:.4 o'clock, and was concluded by him at 123( o'clock,
with a fine run of 60, when he played the balls with
in the string, and left but one to go. Seereiter not
count/Ig,, Kavanagh made the winning shot, amid
the greatest cheering. Seereiter only made 715
points, and, although he played well at times, was
remarkably out of practice or out of lick, as he
showed a large amount of very poor play. Kava
nagh, on'the contrary, played with great brilliancy
throughout, making very few mistakes. ,Hie princi
pal - runs were 9. 42, 9, 37, 46, 7, 131, 12, 18, 31 5 46, 79,
16, 37, 15,.11, 21, 17, 21, 151, . 8, 74, 20, 11, 26, 12, SE, 119,
10, 19,11,77, 27, 31, 0 ,-0, 60.
Seereitees principal runs were 9,8, 17, 18, 14, 34,

27, and smaller counts for both players.
Immediately after the match Mr. Phelan an
nounced that Philip Tiernan, of Cincinnati, had
challenged Kavanagh to play- a similar match of
1,500 points notice of which will be given by adver
tisement. If the, four gaslights overthe table had
reflectors or shades, it would be a great improve-
The match was for $l,OOO a side, 1,600 points up.—

IMPORTANT ARREST OP RAILROAD CONDUCTORS.
—Quite a sensation was created In this city yester
day, by the arrest of several of the conductors on
the Lebanonlralley, and the Reading and Philadel
phia Railroads, charged with having, at several pe
riods, while running their -trains, embezzled large'
sums of money. Other arrests were made at dif
ferent points on the road, including baggage mas
ters and conductors, who are all implicated in the

had in their employ a number of detectives, who
have been travelling on the ditferent trains 'incog.,
noting the number of passengers who were in the

THE BRITISH PRESS.
President Lincoln Considered as a Repre
sentative• and Heroic Character—His Let
ter to Hackett, the Actor—Contrast with
James Buchanan.
[From the Liverpool Pod, October 1.
Perhaps no leader in a great contest ever stood so
little chance of being a subject of hero worship. - as
Abraham Lincoln, the President of the United
States. That .he was once a rail-splitter would be
pardoned if it could be proved , that he were now a
"swell." But there is nothing of the swell about
"Old Abe." Every visitor that goes to Washington
has something disrespectful to say of his very long
legs, and consequently very long pantaloons; of his
shambling figure ; of his awkward speech, and dou
bly awkward silence; of his general unfitness in ap
pearance and manners to mix in high 'moiety.
Those who only know him from his exeraita-
Bone in print conceive but a little better opinion
of him. His grammar is decidedly self-taught
and, perhaps, not quite remembered ; his style is no
style at all; his argument seem sornetimes to have
been written rather on the principle of Samson,
making sport for the Philistines, than as at all
adapted to.advance his cause; and some of his meta
phors are voted decidedly below par by the crowd of
arrogant Pretender; to tsSte, who never admired a
saying that Wee Wiled with vulgarity, and never said
one that could be swpecied of vigor or originality. When
the enemies of the North have nothing else to say,
they deride the President, and when they feel the
point of his homely jokes, they bitterly denounce
him as a tort of Nero fiddling away to a ribald tune,
while the empire he rules is in flames of civil war.
Scarcely any one has a good word to' say for him;
and even his own party In the States seem too ready
to remain silent about his merits, and to base their
defence of the administration on any grounds rather
than confidence In its head.
Yet a worshipper of human heroes might possibly
travel a great deal farther and fare much worse for an
idol than in selecting this same lanky American—
the-personification of freesia' princiPles—the repre
sentative of the idea that slavery, without being
fotaiblv interfered with, must not , be alio wedto
spread itself over the North American continent—
and the impersonation, also, of the victory of that
idea—a victory, which, as it were, stands- on tthe
defensive against those who would turn it into
defeat. Absolute truth, stern resolution, clear in
sight, solemn faithfulness, courage that cannot be
daunted, hopefulness that cannot be dashedthese
are qualities that go a long way to make up "a hero,
whatever side the possessor of them may takain
any lawful conflict. dnd it monad not be easy to dis
pute Mr. Lincoln's claim to all these He has never
given up a good servant or a sound principle. , He
has never shut his eyes to facts,
or remained in
ignorance of them. He-has never hesitated to do his
work, or faltered in doing it. No resolution has re
mained in nubibus with .him because it was a strong
one. No measure has been adopted merely because
"something must be done." The exigencies of a
fanatieal war have never betrayed him into fanati
cism, and the sharp stings of satire have never
drawn from him an. exclamation of ill humor, or
even an imprudent rejoinder.
Bepend upon it, the whole history of the war
proves that this quiet, unpretending, awkward man
is on the whole a titter subject for respect thanridi
cule even as a public man leaving ltogether aside
the Consideration—once Wiavorite one in. Englaad=
that he has raised himself literally from nothing.
But it is not from the history of the war that we
draw today an illustration of this conspicuous
man's honest, generous, and thoughtful character.
We derive it from what little private life he has
had while he has been at the wheel—where he must
have been a very Ixion—of the great American ship.
Last winter or spring—Mr. Lincoln does not well
remember which—he went to the theatre and saw
Hackett, an excellent actor, as few even in England need
to be told. Some time- after, Mr. Hackett sent the
President a book with a complimentary note. But,
having aomething more aerious in hand, Mr. Lincoln
omitted for come time to use the player after his own
honor, and did not acknowledge the present. At
length, however, in August, the acknowle4gment
was sent. Now let us see in what terms Mr. Liu
coin the rough, -uneducated, empty-minded Presi
dent, as some think him, addressed the actor, whose
Falstaff, after delighting tens of thousands, had
chanced to be, played before him:
- EXECUTIVE MANSION',
WASHINOION, Ang. 17 -1863.
lifv , DEArt SIR : Months ago I should have acknowl
edged the nceipt of your book and accompanying kind
note, and I now have to beg your pardon for not having
done so.
For one of my age I have seen very little of the drama.
The first presentation of "Falstaff " I ever saw WAS
I ours here last winter or spring. Perhaps the best com
pliment I can pay is to say, as -I truly can, - I am very
anxious to see it again. borne of Shakspeare's plays I
have never read, while others I have gone over perhaps
as frequently as any professional. reader. Among the
latter are Lear. _Richard 1.11 , Henry VIII., Hamlet, and
especially Macbeth. I think none equals Macbeth. It
is wonderful. Unlike you gentlemen of the profession,
I think the soliloquy in Hamlet,. commencing, "Oh,
my o ff ence is rank. 'surpastes that commencing "To be
or not to be. " But pardon this small attempt it criti
cism. 1 should like to hear you pronounce the opening
'Meech of Richard 111.
--
Willy on not soon visit Washington again? If you
do. please call, and let me make your personal acquaint
ance. Yours, truly. A. LINCOLN.
Now, to us this letter arsenics for itself as favorably
as any letter ever spoke. Its simplicity and candor
are as fresh and delightful as new-mown hay. Only
fancy a: statesman, a President, confessing thus frankly
he had nevet read Shakspeare through! How many
British M. P.'s would have confessed it? And yet how
many of them there are who would have to own as
much if they were put to it? We meet around in
tellectual or quasi-intellectual dinner tables. We
talk of Shelley as familiarly as of sherry. We affect
to languish at the thought of Pascal, and chuckle.
hypocritically over a reference to Montaigne. We
laugh consumedly at a quotation from Juvenal if
the quoter looks humorous, and pretend to be other
wise occupied if the expression of his countenance
its' not very readable. We talk as familiarly of Ra
belais as of last week's Punch; comment on the
transcendentalism of " Sartor Resartus " without
the faintest idea of the tenor of the book ; and nar
rowly escape denouncing Thomas Carlyle down
right, under the' impression that he is Btohard
Carllle, the infidel who outraged the orthodoxy of
our fathers and mothers. There is no more abund
ant source of shame and pretension than the affec
tation in society of being well read in the "works
which no gentleman's library should be without"
Depend upon it there is much good truth and
honesty In any man, and especially in a public man,
who admires and respects Shakspeare, and yet
voluntarily says he has not read all his plays.
But we me more pleased still with Mr. Lincoln
for having read several of the plays many times
over. It is far better for a man to read one play twee-
ty times, because he loves it, than to read ficentrplays
once because they constitute the author's works. and must
be gone through. There is much indication of chareic
tsr, too, in his selection of favorites. "Lear,"
"Richard III," "Henry VIII", "Hamlet," and
"Macbeth," would not be a bad library for any man
who would make' himself 'really-master of them,
and for a ruler of men, who, at the same time, is a lover
of human nature and a quaint humorist; they may well
prove a continual feast. The choice of "Macbeth"
as principal favorite, and the preference of the less
popular of. Hamlet's soliloquies, also indicate that
incisive use of his own wits, which is one of the
surest indications of a man of power.
Long may Mr. Lincoln be able to find:solace and
enjoyment thus pleasantly and profitably, and may
he never lack moral courage and graceful courtesy
to do honor to those who, by illustrating the great
dramatists, do almost all that is done effectually to
keep them popularly alive. In Mr. Hackett's ease the
honor is doubly due, as many of our readers are
aware. Not only is he a brilliant- and unctions
Falstaff, but a thoroughly estimable man. °nee an
opulent merchatt, and afterwards unfortunate '
he
went on the stage and paid every creditor in full out
of the new fortune be had made in his• new- avoca
tion. He is an honor , to a noble profession, the
credit of which is toe often inadequately. sustained ;
and his distinguished correspondent is a man whose
'simple truth and cultivated intelligence will not
forever be concealed by the unwieldiness of his
frame or the uncourtliness of his manners. A con
trast was wanted to the suave deceitfulness and empti
ness of James Buchanan, and' one was /bum! in Abra
ham Lincoln.
BYE Slidell (according to the Herald's facetious
correspondence) remains at Biarritz, Where, it is
said, he is in dallyversonal communication with
the Emperor. Indeed, it has been stated that the
relations between his Majesty and the rebel ambas
sador are of such an intimate nature that the latter
has taught the former a new way of whiling away
the few leisure hours which he steals from.the cares
of empire. "In short," that he and the Emperor
indulge In an occasional game of "draw poker."
