HISHOPXEWMAX OS LINCOLN.

•V.

Among the many excellent addresses made on the anniversary of Lincoln's birthday none excelled that of Uishop John P. Newman, of the Methodist church, who responded to a toast at a meeting of the New York Republican Club. The Bishop's voice took the remembered ring of the patriotic pulpit of war times as he wanned to his epic theme. He said

On this remarkable occasion let us call the roll of honor, recount the great benefactors who have blessed mankind, and call up the great statesmen of the past, and you will agree with me that there is one name that is worthy o* imperishable fame, and that is, Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln's place in history is assured. Generations may pass away, empires may rise and fali, republics may be born and die, liberty may be a homeless wanderer among the tribes of men, but so long as men can revere, esteem and admire patriotism and love of liberty, so long will they recall his illustrious name with acclamations of gratitude and delight. He has all the symbols of this world's admiration, embalmed in song, recorded in history, eulogized in panegyric, cast in bronze, sculptured in marble, painted on canvas, loved in the hearts of his countrymen, and living in the memories of mankind, he is destined to live among the few mortals whom God has bidden into immortality.

Some men are eminent while living, but their memory passes from the world because their ambition was limited, because their words and deeds are not of real worth to history. Their fame is temporary largely because the world has taken possession of great thoughts, because documents have been discovered that reveal their selfishness. The sun of many a conspicuous man has jjone down while yet it is day. Hut Lincoln' fame can never suffer from either of these causes, for his life's ambition was this great country, as vast as humanity and as enduring as time. And it is not possible, gentlemen, that any thought can occupy the human mind greater than obedience to law in opposition to rebellion, or greater than liberty in opposition to slavery.

Knowing him as we do in private ways and public walks, in the sanctities of home and the duties of the Presidential chair, in social correspondence and in public utterances, there is no stain against his fair fame as a man, a citizen or a President. Home men are not honored by their contemporaries, benefactors of mankind though they seem. They die neglected, unsung and unmonumented, but future generations call their memories forth and embalm them in affection and gratitude. Lincoln had a three-fold greatness: Great in life, great in death and great in the history of the world.

And why was he great? What did he accomplish? Ask the old flag that floats over a unified Republic, ask this prosperous country of ours with its happy homes, its fertile fields, its metalic mines and its mineral mountains, its splendid commerce and its hitherto prosperous manufactories. (Great cheers.) Ask the Grand Army of the Republic ask millions of frecdmen advancing to a better civilization ask the nations of the old world, who now have a profound respect for this proud and glorious country of ours.

Great men appear in groups, and in groups they disappear from the vision of the world. Isolated greatness is a stranger to our race. Solidarity is the law of national progress. Wherever there is one who is eminently great, around him are other great ones. First instance the magnificent group of the sixteenth century—Maximilian I. and Charles V., Francis I., and Henry VIII., Isabella and Ferdinand, Columbus and Luther. And these con temporaries, Napoleon in Franca, Wellington in England and Washington in America. Remember that historic group of our own country, Lincoln and Grant, Seward and Chase, Stanton and Summer. Morton and Conklin, Sherman and Sheridan, Porter and Farragut. lieat that if you can. We arc to measure Lincoln by the greatness of his associates. Some men are great because of the littleness of their surroundings. (Laughter and cheers.) He only is great, Mr. President, who is great amid greatness. And this law of historic grouping is true of our day.

When the crisis comes God lifts the curtain from obscurity and the man for the hour comes forth. The crisis is upon us. It reminds us of the dark days of the sixties. But upon the throne above is the God of our fathers, and we have nothing to fear with Sherman in the Senate (cheers) and Reed in the House (cheers( and McKinley in Ohio (cheers) and "od over all.

Our English usins attempted to cast a slur upon Lincoln because of his lowly origin. We are not ashamed of the lowliness of his birth. We are proud of his greatness, as illustrating the possibilities of our government. Of the nineteen Presidents, fourteen were university men, having graduated with the highest honors, and with two or three exceptions all occupied the highest social position from the cradle to the grave, but I confess to you that I would'rather bo the rail splitter of Illinois, the canal driver of Ohio, or the tanner of Galena, and die the honored President of the United States, than to be born a royal prince and die a royal scoundrel.

The beauty of his immortal character has thrown into the shade the splendors of his intellect. The time will come when the severest critics of mental philosophy and mental devel. u«nt will sit in jndgment and admiration upon the splendid brain of that

_V\

great man. He was a logician by nature. His terse and beautiful rhetoric rivals the utterances of the greatest orators of the past and present. He was truly (Treat.

It is well, therefore. Republicans, that you gather here once a year around this festive board to commemorate the character'of this illustrious man gather here to kindle the fires of patriotism gather here to protect the freedom and purity of the ballot and that the Republican party may have a new baptism of patriotism and once more enter into the control of this great country's affairs.

IF you decide to take Hood's Sarsnparilla do not be induced to buy any substitute article. Take Hood's and only Hood's.

THK usual treatment of catarrh is very unsatisfactory, as thousands can testify. Proper local treatment is positively necessary to success, but many, if not most, of the remedies in general use afford but temporary relief. A cure certainly cannot be expected from snuffs, powders, douches and washes. Ely's Cream Balm, which is so highly recommended, is a remedy which combines the important requisites of quick action, specific curative power, with perfect safety and pleasantness to the patient. The druggists all sell it.

I had used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy some fourteen years ago with much success, and concluded to try it again. When I had got through with one bottle my cough had left me, and I have not suffered with a cough or cold since. I have recommended it to others, and all speak well of it." 50 cent bottles for sale by Nye & Booe, 111 north Washington street, opposite court house.

For sale by Nye & Booe, 111 north Washington street, opposite court house.

Reactionary storms will be central on the 2d and 3d, and the moon will be new on the 5th. This will cause a continuation of cloudiness, with rain, sleet and snow, through most of the intervening time from the 7th to lltli. Ileavy rains with thunder and lightning, turning to destructive sleet and snow storms, may be expected during these disturbances. The reactionary disturbances, due on the 2d and 3d, will not likely be reached until about the 5th. A sweeping cold wave'' will separate these perturbations from the disturbances of the period beginning about the 7th, but it will soon give place to storm conditions, and during the 7th to 11th, storms of rain and snow will visit all parts of the coun
