As a inajoiitv ut the totera at tho last election were nulioru or too young to kuuw from recollection tho circumstunces of Mr. Lincoln's inangnraUou. a reproduction of the principal in
cidents will prove ini ei sting. Wc reproduce from the Philadelphia Timis the following account of that interesting event in our country's history: , , . l)n the moruitiif of Feb. 11, lull, the eltUeas of Springfield, 111., begau to assemble at the depot, and b K o'clock a large mim'.r had assembled. Th.- dav waB gloomy, the sky .lark, and rain was lallili. At precisely live minutes liel'ore s o'cloU Mr. Ltucoln and a slusle attendant emerged I ruin a private room aud walked - 1.K ta the -ar, the people falling back and as many as could sbnkiiiu his baud. From the platlonn to the car, alter i.-u.,ving Ills hat and drawing himself up to lus lull hcidit. he stood in i.r.,f.,iinfl Hl!,nc fnr s,...ral sH-Ondfi. SUrVCV-
Ina ih faces of his trlcnds and neighbors. Au account says there wa au unuuial qniver on his lip and a siill more uuusual tear on hi shriveled cheek. His solemn maimer aud his long silence weie as full ot mr lancholv eloquence as auv words h" could have uttered The crowd stood uncovered, with unmistakable svnipathy. Hej;liinlng slowly and In a husky voice he spoke as iollows : ruikivEt.i. iv bMiisnnr.cn. "Fi tends, n. one who has neerbeeii pluc-d In a like jiosltion can und -rstaud mv feelings at this ii.mi, noi the eviin-sflio sadncs- I feel at this parting.

Friends, one and all, I now bid you an affectionate farewell." .Mr. Lincoln had never appeared so uneole.1 before, and his simple eloquence moved ills listeners deeplv. The train moved ont, and his neiffhhois, with few exceptions, never saw bim after. When a little more than four years had passed, his remains were brought back to the same place for burial. THE TRIP TO VASniNlTiiN'. At nearly rviry place on the route lo askiugtoii the people came out to greet Air. Lincoln, and at the principal ones he addressed them. In everv instance he referred to the
great onestton with which he was to grapple. He did not llieve there w as to be serious trouble. He S4td that the clouds would soon clear away, and that the suu s shining behind them. At liiduuapolls he said that the Fedeial laws must be upheld, but recoiled from "coercion" aud "luvasiMi." At Columbus he said lie consoled himself that there was uothiii? worse than anxiety that there was uothlug vet seriously going wioug. euterlaiu different views upon political i, motions ; but nobody Is suffering anything. This is a ::nost condoling clronrostauce, and from It I Judge that all we want Is tlmo aud patience and a reliance ou that Hod who has never forsaken this people. These observations he repeated at Pittsburg aud many other places with iireatrrfulluess and Increased emphasis. At IlarrisUirg be said: 'It is not with auv pleasure that I contemplate the possibility that a aeeeseltv niav arise In this country tor the use of the military arm." Referring to the presence lu the streets of a military force as a part of the great throng who had come out t ) welcome him, he said: "I desire fj repeat, iu order to preclude auy possible mlBcoustruetlm. that I do most sincerely hope that we shall bate no use for them: that it will never 1 ecome .heir duty 10 shed blood, and most espeoiallv uevci to shed tiaternal blood."
