with all the; volubflity of Charle?, Matthew|,
evidently saying something witty, for the people
around laughed heartily. In. the middle of -hi?
harangue, however,jho was eeized witb-a fit of
choklngV'and after !'an - - effort :of.trying to git
something out of his throat, drew forth a Httje
slip - of bamboo, like a'Lisbon toothpick, theja
another and anolhel.'then he sneezed, andout
they came from his nostrils, then from his eyes,
until he completed fhe number.-of thirty-.se> ef,

WHAT ME. LINCOLN WILL DO.
Mr. Lincoln remains true and steadfast |
his bonqat sours youngs convictions, pud w|
execute the government in the spirit of justij
and liberty; and he is somewhat surprised,!
not indignant, at the cowardly steps takj
backwards and downwards by some of ij
timids, West ns well ns East. I wish here
make a prediction—it is this: ‘lf any soul!
sen mob or State t;ike any fort, property, mill
guns, money, or what not, Mr. Lincoln wj
say to Gen. Scott, in sixty days after Litiecj
foirly and firmly takes his seat in the prej
dential chair: Cen. Scott, take that fort ij
stnntly at liny, and every hazard —at any at!
every cost of life or money. That is ypj
duty, sir, and I Shall expeet you to e.xecute itj
There will be no evading the direct iaaa
and no backing Ho rn on the part of the Prej
dent elect, and if lis cabinet feel so inclinj
be will iofose courage and backbone into thei
Horace Greeley wps here pn the daybefoi

“ born to blow.” fake a cue from him. 1

here asking, begg ng, imploring Mr. L>nc<i
to be cautious, timid, full of concessions a!
cowardly compromise; and to all which 1
says, in substance,! “Be off, be gone ; go hoii

Something for ! jittle Folks to Learn.
It frequently happens that certain states, a
cities, instead of being referred to by tlv
proper names, are indicated,i i some other wi
Titus we have— J
Virginia, the “ Cld Dominion.”
Massachusetts, the “ Bay Stite.”„_
Now York, the 1 Empire State.”
New Hampshire the “ Granite State.”
Vermont, the “Green Mountain State.”
Connecticut, “Land of Steady Habits.”
Pennsylvania, the Keystone State.
South Carolina, the “ Palmetto State.”
Ohio, the “Bud eye State.”
Indiana, the “Booster State.”'
Illinois, the “Sucker State."
Wisconsin, the “ B idger State.”
Michigan, the “ Wolverine Slate.”
lowa, the “'Hawk Eye State.”
So, also, we have-t-
New-York City, )tbe “Metropolis of Arne
ca,” the “Commercial Emporiutn,” and “G
ham.” |
Boston, the “ Modern Athens.”
Philadelphia, the “ Quaker Coy.”
Baltimore the “ flonumental Cry.”
New-Orleans, the “Cresent City.”
■ It is probable thjat the next Uppnrtionmf
of members of Congress will gife Pennsyb
nia but twcnty-thjree members. New ¥o
will lose three ; Ohio will lose two, ns will a.
Virginia, South Carolina, Kentucky and T<
nessee. Maine, Mhssachusetts, Rhode lelar
Minnesota, North jCarolipa; Georgia and A
bama, will lose one each. The gains will p>t
ably be: in Arkansas and California one eac
Texas, Michigan mid Missouri, two each; W
oonsin and lowa three each, anti Illinois; w
gain four. Illinois will- thus stand fourth
representative ran):, instead of ninth as
present. j
At present the House elands, one Huridrj
and forty-eight from the Free States and nine
from the Slave Stales. Under the new appt
tionment it will stand, one hundred and fori
nine from the free States, and eighty-four fr<
the Slave States. ' The free States gain fhi
the slave States lote six. The free s Stategf
is in the Western S tates, and gives those Stal
a much greater in.Uuence tn the Oovernnic
than they formerly, possessed. The apportii
ment will be one member fur every 127,000
habitants. j
