An Interesting Letter From Old Abe.
Although we are not certain that the follow
ing letter was intended for publication, yet as it
will doubtless bo interesting to many of our rea
ders, we venture to lay it before them. We have
divided it into sections, with appropriate head
lines, so that the reader can perceive at a glance
the subjects considered and discused in it.
Washington City Oct, 27th 1861.
Friend Charley. I ought to have answered
your last letter to me ere this, but I have been so
busy in attending to official business since then,
that I had not time to do so but as this is Sun
day, and ilrs Abe and the children have gone
to church, I have the White House all to myself,
and therefore a few leisure hours as my disposal,
which I will devote to writing to you. I contin
ue to receive the Democrat and Sentinel regularly,
and of course peruse it carefully every week.
That long story which you recently published
about the " Beechnut Farm." interested me very
much. With regard to polities, your course since
my inauguration has been all that I had a right to
expect. You were a little severe on me aliout
the suspension of the privilege t.f the writ of ha
leus corpus, but probably not any more so than
I deserved. I knew I took a wrong step in that
matter, but it was all the fault of Ed Bates and
Bill Seward. Confound the fellows they are
both crazy abolitionists, and are constantly giv
ing me 1 ad advice. But there is no use in crying
over spilt milk. Having publicly asserted my
richt to suspend the writ and boldly exercised it I

out now. If I should do ., people would say
I was weak in the knees, and between you and (
I Oiarley, that is what no man likes to have
said concerning him, eitl'er behind Lis back or
to his face. You acted the man towards me in
the Fremont controversy, for which I am grate
ful . In fact the only tuj pert 1 received in tht
matter, was from Democratic newspapers.
"Wha.t a howling old Horace Gret-Iy and his pack
kept up for a while about it! I had a good mind
at one time to suspend the Tribune, and send
old Horace to F ort La Fayette. If I had done ;
so, there would have been some loud talking and
rough swearing in the abolitlou camp jbout it.
Tbej would have at once become eloquent with
regard to the right of personal liberty, and the
press. It is all right as long as I arrest no one
on the charge of treason but Democrats, but it
would be all wrong, if I should once begia to
arrest and imprison abolitionists. Charley, you
know, cr if you don't you ought to know, that
there is a vast difference between tweedledum
and tweedledee. I used to be an abolitionist
myself but since my inauguration, I have be
come thoroughly disgusted with the fraternity,
and between you and I and the sign post, I re
gard them as the meanest pack of unanointed
vag -abends on the face of God's earth.
Old Abe's Sen Rob,
My ton Bob the other day told me, when I
wote to you to ask you , whether, if he should
happen to visit Ebensburg during the coming
winter, you would be kind enough to take Lim
out to Monkbarns and introduce him to the preU
ty school mistress. He is a great admirer of
pretty ladies, and is quite a beau. lie is a very
promisidg youth, and although I say it myself,
th at oughtn't to say it. is really han lso me.
But he couldn't well be otherwise, seeing who
his parents are. His mother is a handsome wo
man and so am I,
Old Abe on his vay to Wasliinglon City, is
kissel by ladies at almost every station, vchcre
upon Mrs Abe multereth to herself about im
pudent hussy s awl lelleth old Abe he ought to
be asl'amed of himself.
Speaking of the ladies recalls to my mind an
incident which happened to me, while on my
way last February, from Illinois to this place,
and which I may as well tell you. At almost
every station at which the train stopped, all the
pretty ycung ladies who had assembled to see
the Dew Prssident, would rush forward and kiss
me. This I was told had been an established cus
tom on similar occasions for years, and I did not
therefore, object to it. To tell you the truth,
Charley, I rather liked it. But if I . liked it I
Fton discovered that Mrs Abe who accompanied
me. didn't. On turning towards her after one
of these scenes, I perceived her looking daggers
t me. and could hear her muttering to herself
something about impudent, good for nothing
hussy?. Ou returning to my seat, she turned
sharply towards nie, and says she " You'r a
nice man Mr, Abe at your time of lift.
the father of a family ! You ought to be asham
ed of yourself, so you ought." and then sna i rambling letter to a ciose. me ne.tr .rum ou.
bursted out crying for dearlifc. Tii.it wr.s en- i Kemcmbtr me kindly to the Board of School Di
ongh for me. I have been very careful since rectors cf your Borough, and believe me,

thenbv prevented a fuss in the family. Wh;t ;
queer, excitable and jealous minded ' creatures ;
these women are. 1 never knew one yet that j
could bear to see her husband kissed by another j
wr.mar especially if she was jrood looking. But
sti!I Charley, they are slorl.us institutions after ;
all, and we could'nt get alo:?g well without ;

Old Abe discourscth concerning the v flairs cf t.'ic ;
State. !
As you truly remarked in your letter to me, j
we have fallen on gloomy days, and clouds end j
darkness rest on the future of our ou-it ry. I 1
have waited patiently for ti e dawn during the j
last six months, but ret it c.r.ies not. You and ;
I would both like to see the Union preserved, j
but we know that this cannot be ac-
complished, if the Government be administered j
on the crazy and fanatical principles of the abo- j
lition party. They are co
emancipating the slaves
the Union. They can tal
the nigger. Their motto
and down with the poor while laboring man'
and confound them, they are continually endeav
oring to bully me and contrd mv p.dmimstra-
tration. I asked old IIrace Grcely the other day 1
what would follow the carrying out r.fliis vcherce
for liberating all all the slaves in the Southern
States. I waned to know if it wou-d not
result in a few months, in tilling all the North
em States with niggers, The swarm of locusts
in Egypt would be nothing to this swarm of nig
gers in Pennsylvania. And Horace said I, tlo
you think the people of the Northern States
would stand that ? Horace made no direct re
ply, but still kept talking about emancipation,
and all mankind being created free and equal.
Horace, I resumed, that is legging the question,
You knew or at least ought to know, that if wc j
would save the Union, we must instead r-f be-
, , 4. .
coming more sectional, become mnre national j
and conservative,
This must be a war for the
Union, and not an abolition war. Horace you
are very hard on the Democrats, but if it had'nt
been for them, my administration would have
long since been in a split stick You abolition
ists are mighty good at getting up a fight, but
very poor hands at lighting it oi:t. when it has
once commenced in earn 1st. I have a pO"d mind
to joii the Democracy f r'.h with, and let veur1
sectional one idea faction go to thunder. That's

success -.r. She is a very st-ns:ble wr.n-an, but I
am very much afraid the people will not fer-1 dis
posed to ratify her clu iec i:i 1304. When John
C. got himself comfortably located away out in
Missouri, he thoug.it he had the b:.!I at his own
foot, nd in order to make his calling and elec
tion sure, issued his celebrated emanciprtion
Proclamation. Of course his object was to lender
himself popular with the Abolitionists, in idl ef
wLich Le succeeded adncirably. However, as it
was clearly unlawful and unconstitutional, I to..'.-.
occasion to veto it forthwith. In the meantime he
had got into a difiioidty with Frank Blairin ! ini
prisoned him, I had to interfere in behalf of Blair
and order his release This aroused and alarmed
John C. and he immediately sent on Jessie his
wife to arrange matters with me. As soon as she
arrived in this city, she addressed me a note, re
questing a copy of certain papeis in my possess
ion, which I didn't answer. In a few days she
sent me a very spunky letter, which I answered
in an equally spunky manner. She then deman
ded an interview with me, in the presence of my
Cabinet, a favor which Seward said, could no
how in politeness be refused to the lady and she
was accordingly admitted. She commenced by
stating who she had been, who she was just then,
and what she wanted. She wanted the emanci
pation Proclamation declared all right, my veto
to the contrary notwithstanding. She wanted
her husband to be allowed the right to keep
Frank Blair in prison a3 long as be pleased, and
to spend as much public money in enriching Lis
favorites, as suited his purpose. I at once told
her, that so far from granting all ef these modest
requests, I could not even grant any one cf them.
Charley, did you ever hear an angry woman
scold? If you didn't, then you can have no idea
of the volley of wrath and sarcasm, she poured
out on mj devoted head. She said Ler husband
was a patriot, a soldi:r and a gentleman, and
that I was nothing but an ignorant old rail-splitter;
and that although I had told the Baltimore
Committee last spring, that I could run the
Mashane, she entertained serious doubts on the
subject. Luckily fur me, about this time my
dinner bell was rung, and I made my way out
through the back door of the room, leaving my t
Cabinet to fight it out with her the best way they
could. Seward told me afterwards, that she gave
the whole Cabinet, and Montgomery Blair in par
ticular, Hail Columbia to a new tune, and then
left, slamming the door behind her, as she went
out. That was my first, and I hope my last, in
terview with an angry and strong minded wo
man. Heaven hereafter defend me from such.
In the meantime, charges of a serious nature, are
coming in thick and fast against Fremont, and
I've sent on Simon to investigate them. I sup
pose IU have to remove him I know already I
ought to do so forthwith. But then I elon't want

country has formed the highest expectations.
He rendered good service to the country in the
Mexican war, and durin g the prestut war, won
several important battles in Western Virginia.
Since he has assumed comman I of the army on

Such evidence from such high sources bears
us out triumphantly in the position we have
long mantaincd with regard to Dr. Ayer's
preparations, or more particularly our adver
tisements of them. No publishers need be
more opposed than we are to promulgation of
quackery in any thape, but we knew when we
began, that his remedies were above any
suspicion of deceptiorj that they were about
the best it is possible to produce for the cure
of disease, and that they have the confidence
of all communitits where they are known.
Not aloue because the Mayors of the whole
country believe it useful to their people, but
because we know from experhnce thai they

RETIREMENT OF CEX. SCOTT.

The following letter from Lieut. General
Scott wa3 received by the President on Thurs
day afternoon.

Washington, D. C, Oct 81. 1SGI j
The Hou S Cameron, Secretary of War.
Sir: For more than three years 1 have
been unable, from a hurt, to mount a horse,
or walk more than a few pices at a time, ana
that with much pain. Other and new infir
mities, dropsy and vertigo. cduiCuif-h me
that a repose of mind and body, with the ap
pliances of surgery and medieine. are neces
sary to add a little more to a life already pro
tracted much beyond the usual span of
man.
It is under such circumstance:?, ' made
doubly painful by the unnatural and urjust
rebellion new raging in the Southern Spates,
of our so late prosperous and happy Union,
that I am compelled to request that my name
be placed on the list of army officers retired
from activo service.
As this request is founded on an absolute
right granted by a recent act of Congress, I
am entirely at liberty to say that it is with
deep regret that I withdraw myself in tbes
partialities or pre
be highly conscientious in the jerf.rm inc
of every duty, and of unrivalled activity and
perseverance.
And to you, 3Ir. Secretary, whom I now
officially address for the last time. I beg to
acknowledge my many obligations for the
uniform high consideration I have n-c-. ived
at 3'our hands, and have the honor to remain,
sir, with high respect, your obedient servant,
(Signed) Wixiield Scott.
A special Cabinet council was convened on
Friday morning, at 9 o'clock, to take the
subject into consideration. It was decided
that Gen Scott's request, under the ciicum
stances of his advanced age and infirmities,
could not be declined.
Geu M'Clellan was, thereupon, with the
unanimous agreement ol the Cabinet. uotiSed
that the command of the army wouli be de
volved upon Li. n.
At 4 o'clock iu the afternoon the Cabinet
again waited upon the President, and a; ten
ded him to the residence of Gen Sott. Ou
being seated, the President read to the Gen
eral the following order:
On the 1st day of November, A D. 1SG1
