A Valuable Reminiscence- "Wlilßt the brave veterans of Meade’b nnd Sherman's armies were sauntering through the Capitol building on Thursday last, one of the privates of the 29th Penn sylvania Regiment, named Henry Haupt, strayed into the room of one of the officers Of the Senate, and while referring to his campaign, spoke of a valuable letter which he had picked up at the State House a# Raleigh, North Carolina, while the army was quartered there. He permitted a copy to be taken, which is as follows: <‘Sm: A great variety of business at present occu pies the attention of Congress, and though tie ses sions commenced wlti tie year, tiers Is little proba illltary of adjoornlng previous te tie Ist ol August. " Tie President Is dangerously 111 of a pectoral complaint. The opinion of tie faculty Is against a tecoveiy. Before tie attack ie was engaged In ex tending bis appointments to tie eeveral depart, metis ol North Carolina and the ceded territory, hut the secrets of his Cabinet are retained In such absolute darkness that were I to attempt eto give ye n Information It would he mere conjecture. If this strobe should unfortunately prove fatal, the Tice President will be In office, by virtue of his pro- Sent appointment, until the 4th of March, 1793, an event melancholy indeed. Should It happen, per haps It would have been better for the United States that General Washington had never been ohosen; for, relying on his virtue and .abilities, Congress have, In repeated Instances, by law vested him with powers not delegated by the Constitution, which, I suppose, would have been entrusted to BOOtharman > These pcweis can never be recalled without the con! sent of hts successor In office, or an union of senti ment, which, in these faetlous times, Is sot to ho ex pected. “ The assumption of the State debts, we are told, will be brought forward next week In a new dress. This Is Intended either to gull some of the more moderate members, or, by delaying the progress of pnblte business, constrain some of the Georgians or North Carolinians (who are anxious to return) to obtain leave of absence, or tbo Eastern members have been tampering with tbe Pennsylvanians by offering tbe permanent residence of Congress to Philadelphia. This surmise I have taken occasion to speak of to those who are most zealously attached to the interest of that city, holding out as a threat that If they did desert us we should most assuredly desert them; so that, eventually, Philadelphia might lose more by the bargain than she would gam. “A bill has lately been passed tbe Senate, and sent to ns for concurrence, dtsigned to prohibit any further Intercourse with Rhode, Island un til she Bhall ratify. It Is tyrannical and arbi trary In tbe highest degree, and the author of It, Indeed, the Senate, bv passing It, seem to have lost sight of that political conneeotlon which once existed, and of that spirit of moderation and mutual forbearance wblob ought forever to to aub. Mat between Governments related as they are to ns, as well as between Individuals. That State, though Comparatively small, Was not backward In tbe late Bevclntion. She performed/eesentlal services in tbe common cause, she sustained important sacrifices, and is, therefore, entitled to respect. How far in her present pdotles has she been wrong ? or, bow far right! are questions which time only oan do tide. “I hope the bill will not pass our House. If it Should there will he a proof given to the world of the ganty foundation of all human friendships or polltl' cal connections. “ 1 have the honor to be, sir, with slneere attach ment, your Excellency's most humble servant, “Nsw York, May 17,1790.” The -writer, John Steele, was a noted public character during bis lifetime, having been for a number of years a member of the Legislature of North Carolina, and part Of the time speaker of that body, a represen tative to the State Convention to consider the Constitution of the United States, com missioner to adjust the boundary between North and South Carolina, general of mili tia, and First Comptroller of the Treasury under Presidents Washington and Adams. It is addiessed “ To his Excellency Alex ander Martin, Esq., etc., etc., etc., North Carolina,” and franked in the comer, “free, John Sterlb.” On the reverse of the rude envelope it is marked “registered. ” The reader will observe that Mr. Steele was a great friend of Hen. Washington, who at that time was lying dangerously ill, and that he feaTed, in the event of his death, the Vice President, then John Adams, would become President, which he regarded as “an event melancholly in deed,” and makes an additional and singu lar comment upon it, because certain powers not delegated in the Constitution had been conferred by law upon Wash ingtok—“ Congress relying in his virtues and abilities.” It will be noticed, also, that Washington was enshrined in the affec tions and confidence of the people, and that Congress, after the Revolutionary war, did not hesitate to confer upon Mm extraordinary powers, for the purpose, doubtless, of happily ahd permanently ad justing all the resulting difficulties. As Mr. Steele lived twenty-five years after he wrote this letter, he undoubtedly realized that when John Adams became President he did not prove to be so un worthy of the confidence of the people; although, unlike Washington, and Jef ferson and Madison, he was not re-elect ed to that high position. Observe, also, the spirit that prevailed in reference to Rhode Island, when that State held hack on the ratification of the Fede ral Constitution, and note the old fashioned diplomacy resorted to to compel Pennsylvanians to oppose the scheme of asstttrifigifee Stgfe debts—a measure which has been since discussed, and WS a sought,to he carried into effect some fifty years’sub sequently, but disastrously failed. Alto gether, the letter is one of the mo3t sugges tive character. We might, too, add that the handwriting is beautiful, and the whole Style that of an educated and accomplished gentleman. The Miracles of Science. The miracles of Science have become so common that the world has ceased to won der at them. That our streets and our houses should be lighted with subtle and inflammable gas; that steam should be a substitute for human labor, on land and pea, working in the factories, driving ships across the ocean in despite of wind and lade; that the sun should produce land scapes and portraits; that oil should he supplied from the depths of the earth ; that carbonate of magnesia, with which chil dren are dosed, should supply a wire which gives the brightest and most intense‘artifl cial light; that steam should cany men and goods from one end of a country to the other with a rapidity and security be yond what the wildest imagination could have of half a century ago; and that, not to multiply instances, the slow process of letter-writing should be virtually superseded by the lightning swiftness of the electric telegraph, not only on the land, but through the ocean, are facts, yet won ders, which have become so familiar that their importance has ceased to startle ns. Perhapß, of these miracles, the electric telegraph, an application of science which ■was put to practical use in this country, and by an American citizen, is the most sur prising- The greatest achievement in that line was accomplished a few weeks ago. 1 On the evening of Tuesday, April the fourth, Sir Charles Trevelyan, Finance Minister of British India, made his finan cial statement—opened his Budget, so to say—in the Legislative Council at Cal cutta, the capital of Hindoßtan, a city not very far from China. On the afternoon of Thursday, April 6th, an outline of it was circulated in London, and on Friday, April 7th, it was published in the London papers, ■with comments, which anticipated by a day the weekly journals of Calcutta them selves, and the news was read in the course of that day in every part of the British Islands. The marvel is prodigious, aud past all the dreams of pie-scientific times. Nor does there seem to he any material impediment to the figures, as they left the lips of the Financial Minister, yet being directly flashed into the exchanges and the newspaper offices of Europe. The Telegraph, working between “ far ther Ind ” and white-cliffed England, on land and in the ocean depths, has done this; ' The familiar click of the delicate but now very ordinary instrument may seem commonplace enough, but how Buggestive it is to the contemplative mind- “News from India, by the electric telegraph ” has already become one of the frequent head ings in the British newspapers. Think what that heading intimates. Think through what vast geographical expanse the tiny azure sparks have leaped which tell ub this. Take a map of the world, and as your finger passes over the route which that “news from India” has traversed, yon really make a pilgrimage of half the globe. In Calcut ta, a few little plates of zinc and copper, excited by acid, created the impulse which, after pulsing through thousands of miles, finally told its story at the terminus in Lon don. It Bped, lightning-winged, across the plains of Ganges, along the Eishna, down the great Ghauts of Deccan, over the green Concan, and reached Bombay. No pause— no stay, hut ever onward, by the palm trees of the Surat and Kutchee coasts, to the sandy mouth of the Indus—onward still, from Kurrachee, deep under the sea of Sindbad, amid undreamed of secrets of the ocean, through all the pearl heaps of the Indian sea, by Ormus and the blue Gulf of Persia, even to the valley of the Euphrates. No lingering, no delay—but, turning North, it passes on the message from India to England, flying over goat-skin tents, and past the whistle of Arab herdsmen, and it reaches, and flashes through, great Orient cities, tra verses Iranistan and Mesopotamia, skirts Tartary and Armenia, glitters along the lineß stretched over Anatolia, is received at Constantinople, whence, as fast as nimble fingers at Pera can work the keys, it flies across Europe, and finally reaches that England which, even since the com mencement of the Christian era, was con sidered by Imperial Rome to be merely a barbarous country, wMch it had been scarcely worth Cesar’s while, a short time before, to have invaded and sub dued. There is hope that, ere long, the same application of science which has brought India within less than two days’ speech of England, will also connect the New World with the Old. Two projects are on foot. One of these is now in progress, to run a line of electric telegraph from the mouth of the Amoor (in the North Pacific Ocean, adjoining the coast of China,) to California via Behring Straits, and the other is the laying of a new Atlantic cable, which will have one terminus in the south of Ireland and the other, as beiore, in Newfoundland. The first of these is the Russo-American line, for the formation of which the Czar has recently contracted with Messrs. Col lins & Sibley, at a cost of $10,000,000, to traverse nearly 7,000 miles, and to be opened on the 3d of April, 1870. The second line is a private speculation in which a great deal of English and some American capital has been invested. It is anticipated that the new Atlantic Cable will be laid in the course of next month, and the Great Eastern has been chartered to convey and lay down the prepared wire. It is a great experiment, for there remains a strong doubt whether the electric fluid can be conveyed and controlled for such a great unbroken distance, (under the sea, too,) as from Yalentia to Newfoundland. If the experiment should prove successful, this ocean-telegraph will give England the chance of an advantage over ns, at some time. Both termini being on British ground, England will have the power, at any time, with or without a fair pretext, to stop American communication, by that line, With Europe. If Mr. Cyrus Field had been as attentive to the rights of his own fellow-citizens as he has been to the interests of his British clients and part ners, one terminus of the Atlantic tele graph would have been in the United States—Portland, most probably—and then the contingency we anticipate as at least possible could not arise. At any rate, we shall be fortunate in also having the Russo-American line, thongh it can scarcely communicate so quickly as the other. “John Stahls. Mr. litncoln—A Domestic Incident. An Ambassador from some great Power once visiting Henry the Fourth of France, found him playing with Ms cMldren, who had contrived to throw Mm down, and were rolling over Mm on the floor. The diplomatist reported the circumstance and said that happy must the nation be wMch had for its ruler a man who, casting State difficulties aside, loved to he the play-fel low of his little ones. The late President was such a man, and Whs delighted when he could enter into familiar companionship with Ms youngest son- the lad now fami liarly known as “ Tad.” He entered very freely into this boys’ amusements and pur suits, and always endeavored to help Mm on in the latter. A proof of tMs lies be fore us,-in the shape of a card addressed by Mr. Lincoln to Mr. William Dickson, (son of Col. Dickson of Philadelphia,) who is Chief of the United States Fire Bri gade at Washington, and was oftenest to be found at the headquarters of the Hi bernia Company, within a square or SO of the White House. The lad had a taste for mechanics, and spent a good deal of his time at Mr. Dickson’s. He was anxious, while his father was preparing the second inaugural address, to have something done by Mr. Dickson, and the President, inter rupting his own labors to please the boy, wrote the following, upon a small cardj in his peculiarly legible hand: “Will Mr., Dickson, Chief Engineer u of Hibernia, please pump'tne water out of a certain well, which Tad will show ? Feb. 27, 1865. A. Lincoln.” This was written within five days of the second inauguration, and, trifling as the matter may appear to some, we are confident that many parents, and many children too, will he pleased with this illustration of the home-affection and do mestic charm of the Martyr-President’s cha racter. To us, Abraham Lincoln, writing at his son’s desire to an engineer about “ a certain well,” stands as nobly before us, aB Henri Quatre rolling at all-fours upon the floor with his little ones. Last Saturday morning a tall young man, with a bronzed complexion, and a Southern swagger In hie locomotion, applied to the provost marshal at St. Louis, aud stating that he was Major O. R. Rusaoll, ol Louisiana, late adjutant on Gen. Ewell’s staff, ashed permission to remain a couple of days in the city. A pass was made out for him, and he promised to conduct himself in a proper manner. In the afternoon he was seen intoxicated in the bar-roem of one or the hetels. He called lor a drink, threw down a flity- dollar Confederate note, and threatened vengeance on the barkeeper if he refnsed to take it; boasted that he was a “ rebel major, a Southern gentleman," and offered to light any gentleman in the crowd with pistols, at ten paces. A detective took the major In hand, and he was esoorted to the provost marshal general’s office. He there stated that he had received a commission In the French army, and expected to eall toe France In a few Cays. On being Informed that he would be sent to prison, be lowered Ms orest, and desired to take the oath of allegiance. He was committed to jail, and It is said that on the way he carted bis lack, and swore that li he bad a pistol he would blow his d—d brains /out.’’ One of the officers drew his revolver, and handing it to the major, told him he would loan him a weapon that would answer his purpose. Toe gray retel suddenly ebanged his mind, and oonolndea that ho would not blow out his brains just then. The next day, having become sober, he wrote an apologetic letter to the provost marshal general, brgalng to be released, and promising to take the amnesiy oath, and never to break It by word or uted. He still remains in Umbo. Aw Incudknt of thb Jiuvißw.— On the morn ing of Wednesday, as Sherman’s army was passing a short dlstanoe beyond the Capitol, at Washing ton, one of the ambnlance-gnard observed a ohloken endeavoring to make Its way aoross the street.

Patriotism aid Prudesee a Natloaal Boon to Bid Us of Our Taxation. THE NAMES OF THE FIRST SUBSCRIBERS The grass scheme proposed by the New York Btreli to pay off the national debt, and ease the taxation of the United States, appears to hare met with a sudden and aatonlshiDgrespanee. The plan suggested "was to divide the debt—which is estl mated at three thousand millions of dollars—lnto one hundred and flrty thousand shares of twenty thousand dollars each, these shares to be taken up by our wealthy men.” Few may have Imagined the scheme possible; but on the.23d Inst, the suggestion appeared, and en May 24th the Herald received the followlng.letter: Oxviob ox Hbnby A. Hbisur’b sobs, Barkbbsi Nnw York. May 24 1835 Your suggestion In yesterday's Herald ik it the national debt be paid off by one hundred and fifty thousand subscriptions of twenty thousand dollars each meets onr entire approval, as being not only patriotic, bnt In the end a direct saving In the way of taxes. As you put down your name for the first subscription Bnd take two shares, please put down our name No. 3 for one share of twenty tbous tud dollars. We are authorized to take share No. 4 for one of our friends, and are responsible tor its pay ment. Hxnby A. Husnu's Sosa, 38 Wall street. And on the morning of May 25th Intimation of a magnificent—for there Is no other word to employ in speaking of it—a magnificent and princely dona* tion for the same pnrpose by Oummodore Vander bilt was received through Mr. Robert Bonner, who himself subscribed $40,000 Iu two days,|B4o,ooo had been subscribed by the following individuals In the following proportions: Cornelius Vanderbilt.... 25 $500,000 H. A. HelserV Sons, one share. 1 so,too H. A. Helser’a Sons, for a friend 1 20 000 Robert Bonner 2 40 000 Jordan L;Mott 1 20,000 James Gordon Bennett 2 40,000 Total to date... The subsequent remarks of the Herald are ex ceedingly just. It says that “It Is, of course, an* ceistoca that none or these subrscrlptlons are to bo ?ain up until the whole amount is suoscrtoni for. t Is no part of the plan to pay off a quarter ur one half of the debt, while capitalists wuo have with held their snbsorlptlons profit by the liberality of those who subscribe. There are enough rioh men In this country to pay the whole debt before Che Ist of January next, and It must be done. Then Con gress will at enoe abolish all taxation, and the Sec retary of the Treasury will ptaoe the aountry la the finanolal position which It oooupled fire years ago. After all, these snbsorlptlons are bnt paying our taxes In advance. Commodore Vanderbilt sub scribes five hundred thousand dollars. In five years his taxes would reach that amount It Is better for the rich men and better for the poor men to abolish the debt and the taxation without, delay, end ing the present cumbersome system of oolleotlng revenue and the espionage upon our lucernes and onr silver, and bringing book the repubtio to the proud and glorious position of a nation which owes no man a dollar. It will be noticed that the six hundred and forty thousand dollars already sub scribed have boon taken by half a dozen persons In bsjf as many days. Onr Stewarts, ray lore, Coopers, lAnnoSeß, and Aston we have yet to hoar from; afid the rloh men In Boston, Philadelphia, Balti more, Cincinnati, Chicago, St. Louis, and other cities and towps have notyetre9ponded. The finan cial year ends lu July, and before next January we ought to have all tbe snares taken. Toe under standing Is that no money Is to be paid until they are all taken, and that cash down Is to be the rule when the subscription Is filled. Congress and Se cretary McCulloch will arrange all tne details for the receipt of the money and the dlsoharge Of the national debt. The debt 01 England is only four thousand millions ol dollars, and the English Go vernment considers Itself happy If, once la a while, It can reduce the debt three millions a year. But we want to show the world that, after raising the largest army In the world to suppress tae largest rebellion the world ever saw, we can pay off the largest debt ever contracted la so short a space of time without waiting for the Slow processes of taxation and gradual redue tier, We have had several offers, since the sub scription was opened, for ton-thousand dollar shares One gentleman said that he would be glad to nave the Government take ten thousand dollars—one tenth of his fortune. This statement displayed the, proper spirit; but we oonld not aeoept the offer, be cause the prloe of shares had already been fixed. It will be easy, however, for two mn-thousand-dol lar customers to club together and take one share, and this process oan be continued indefinitely, so as to embraoe five, three, two, and one-thousand-dollar subscribers. Or, when the twenty-thousand-dollar. shares fall to be taken, we may Invite smaller amounts. The former plan Is, however, the more speedy and practical.” The history of the world oan afford no speotacle so sublimely wonderrul as a nation paying off so vast a debt of Us proper Impulse independent of Go vernment taxation. If done, there oan no longer he any query as to the-posltlon of this people among the nations of the earth. Wo should stand alone in the chronicles ol the past and present, while lc may be doubted whether In the future any nation oan present so majestia an evidence of Its wealth, Its public spirit, Its liberality, and Its honesty. Kotieciof ftev Boobs* Professor Ellas Loomis, of Yale College, author of several practical scientific works, has added to them "A Treatise on Astronomy,” forming an Bvo. volume of 838 pages, with numerous engravings, published by Harper A Brothers. This la Intended to serve as a text-book for the mstruotlon of college classes in the first principles of astronomy. To tho general reader tbe most Interesting .parts of this volume will he those which treat of tbe various phy. sloal phenomena—such as the constitution of the sun, condition of the moon’s surface, the total eclipses of tbe sun, the laws of the tides, the consti tution of comets, and the ourloßltleß of double stars. For a scientific book, It Is one of the most luold we have ever examined. It Is worthy of a plaoe next Bonvler’s "Practical Astronomy,” wblob has al most exhausted the snbjeot, bnt Is rather better adapted than that great work for being used as a text-book. The eight whole-page plates at the end of the volume are worthy of special mention as ex amples of the adaptability of wood engraving to book lUnstiatlon. (deceived from J, B. Lippincot* 4-Co.) “Sybil,” a tragedy, In five acts, by John Savage, has been published, in a very neat form, by James B. lillktr, New York. It was by the performance of the leading character in this drama, that Miss Avonla) .Jones made the high’reputation which justifies her appearing before the publlo as "a star.” She has played that part In the leading cities of tbe United States, and also lp Australia and England. The dramatic faculty, strongly possessed by Mr. Savßge, is powerfully developed in the play of "Sybil,” the main incidents of which, constituting what is known as " the Ken tucky Tragedy,” he has poetized and elevated. Mr. Savage, let us add, is now writing a biography of President Andrew Johnson, agoodsketchof whom will be found in his volume of " Our Living It jpre sentatlve Men,” published by George W. Guilds, In iB6O. Walker, Fuller, A Go., Boston, have brought out a second volume of “ A Youth’s History of the Re belllon,” by William M. Thayer. The first volume gave a olear aooount of the war, from Sumpter to Roanoko, and the narration is new extended from the captare of Roanoke Island to the Battle of Murfreesboro. Numerous well-executed wood en gravings add to the attraction of this volume. (Re ceived .from J. K. Simon, 33 South Sielh aired ) Miss Julia Kavanayh’s new book, “Beatrice,” republished by U Appleton A Co., New York, is one of the best novels of the season, with only the fault of being a little too much span out. It re minds us, In some things, of “Uncle Silas,” the clever novel Vy Mr. Lelann, lately republished by Harper A Brothers. But Mr. Gervolse, the perva ding Incarnation of evil In “ Beatrice,” and re markably well maintained throughout, is a more natural character than Unde Silas. In “Beatrice” the Interest never flags. The incidents are not very, exciting ; we mean, they do not belong to the sen sational class, bnt are naturally evolved; and, though they sometimes may surprise, rarely startle the reader. Many portions of the work are horne plotures of gTeat beanty (snob as the residence on the French coast), and the latter domestio scenes, showing affection brightening unmerited poverty, are very touching In their truth. (Received/rent Ashmeod t[ Evans,) “Janet Strong,” by Virginia F. Townsend, who writes a great deal (perhaps, too much), In several magazines, is a romance of home*life, serious, rath er than religions—what heavier reading Is than than a religions novel I—with a good plot, well drawn characters, and an eminently healthy tone. (■Published Ig J. B. Lippincotlk Co,) “ Wilfred Montreßsor; or, the Seoret Order of the Seven,” Is a very peonllar romance of New York life. The machinery of the “ Seoret Order,” which Is not half so good as the mysterious combination of the Wide-Awake fraternity, Is a dead weight upon the tale, pressing heavily on Its opening and dose, and not having .the slightest bearing upon Its action. Apart from this, the story, located In New York about 1823, and evidently imitated from Dumas, Is highly sensational, and possesses a certain degree of Interest which carries the reader through it to the end. It Is profusely illustrated, bnt the engrav ings arc better drawn than printed. (Published by T. B. Peterson §r Brothers.) “ Family Failings,” by Mrs. Grey, Is a reprint by F. A. Brady, New York, and Is a readable novel, very much in the manner of Mrs. Henry Wood. The main Interest turns on lhe loss of a will and a bundle of bank notes, and the story ends with their recovery and Its effeau. (Received from T, B. Peter son §- Brother).

Business oontlnues quite good for the season, and all kinds of shoes for summer wear find ready sale, and manufacturers are overrun with OrderE for this kind of work. There Is considerable Call from the New England trade, and NOW York and Philadelphia buyers are taking hold to a con siderable extent by orders. The stock of seasonable goods on hand Is quite small, and sales are made readily at satisfactory prices. The manufaotarera of heavy boots and shoes for the fall sales are not doing much as yet, but are getting stook on hand and preparing to make up a full supply for the regular Western trade, and also for the anticipated wants of the Southern markets whloh will soon be open to oommeroe. Taken as a whole, the prospeot for fall trade Is very cheering, and manufacturers look for a large sale.

Gbovbb & Baker Sewibo Maohibb 00. 730 Chkstnut Strbbt. Sbwino Machines.—The Sewing Maohlne has been tbe Instrument of saving more hours to the tolling millions of the gentler sex than any and all other inventions combined; and as the protraoteil use of the needle has been a pfollfio source of con sumption, affections or the spine, and other life destroying oomplalnts, it Is a legitimate Inference that the greatest health preserver to the sex ts the Instrument whereby sewing Is made a recreation and a pleasure, and by which what was formerly a drudgery Is now a pastime. Descending to partlon lars, we have but one additional eommont, to wit: Tbat for all kinds or family purposes, the Grover 3t Baker Machines, sold at 730 Ohestnnt street, are as much superior to all.others In use as a first-olass railway carriage Is preferable to a rloketty, jolting stage coach. Ejamine them, and you will not will ingly buy any other. Fibs French abo Americas Convections.— Messrs. E. G.

Thb Absurdities ob Pbejudich.—lnconsisten cy Is a weakness of human nature, as unreasonable as It Is absuHP end Indefensible. Many people, for Instance, have a horror of purchasing anything that Is extensively advertised. Advertising Is, In their opinion, a game of speculation. The Sambnrg Fort Wine is largely advertised, because the proprietor, Mr. A. Speer, Is desirous that the publio become acquainted with It. He wishes them to judge ror then selves, and he has Instructed all who retail his Wine that if It should not prove equal to what he claims for it to return the money. All he wants Is to give It a fair trial. Nothing can be fairer than this. Druggists sell this Wine. my2T-2t Recognition First and Last.—Wonderful— Isn’t It l—that our Government should recognize Jeff Davis by his boots, when the European Powers would'nt do It by any means—and that this rebel lion should have begun In cotton and ended In ca lico 1 If Jeff had worn a decent suit from the Brown Stone Clothing Hall of BookhlU & Wilson, Nos. 883 and 605 Chestnut street, Instead of in Mrs. D.’s pet ticoats, he would have been disguised like a gentle* man, and he would probably have esoaped recog nition. “ Abraham Lincoln aba Fathbb.”—From the original picture, presented by Mr. Lincoln to G Gumpert, Esq., of Philadelphia.
