LINCOLN'8 BIRTHPLACE.
The little log cabin in which
Abraham Lincoln was born says
the Woman, 8 Home Companion, is
no longer upon the place Du
ring the Nashville exposition it
was carried down there ,and since
that time it has been a regular
feature at all the affairs of this
kind. The place where it original
ly stood is a high, barren hilltop,
and the exact spot is now nmrked
by a rude flagpole. Thomas Lin
coln was undoubtedly determined
in buildiDg his cabin there by the
spring of delicious cold water that
pours through a cavern at the foot
of the hill. The spring is at the
bottom of a sinkhole, where the
underlying limestone rock has
given way and left a rocky chasm
about a dozen feet deep. The
break exposes an outjutting ledge
on one side, while on the other is
a steep slope of earth and shat
tered stone, and close around
grow numerous bushes and trail
ing vines and a few fine trees that
cast a pleasant shadow on the hol
low. How many times Lincoln's
mother must have toiled up the
bill from this spring with her
water bucket, and how often the
little boy must have toddled down
to this cool retreat and dabbled
in the flowing water. The spot is
a fa voi ite resort for pleasure par
ties for miles around. Indeed,
these parties constitute the bulk
of visitors to the shrine; yet in
spite of its comparative inaccessi
bility, an occasional stranger
from a distant State makes a
pilgrimage to this lonely Ken
tucky pasture ,
