He told that for some time after the landing - -Lincoln and Shields sat ‘quiet%_\' on their logs. Lincoln said nothing, and Souther thought he looked gericus. After a while something happened, and Souther safd that when he saw it he “nearly blew up” The bundle of sabres had been lald down near the log where: Lincoln was sitting. Lincoln reached out and took up one of the. weapons. He drew the blade slowly from the. geabbard, and Souther said “it looked as long as a fence rail.” : - e Holding the blade by the back, Lincoln looked closely at the edge, and then after the manner of one who has been grinding a seyxthe or a corn knife, he began to feel gingerly the edge with the ball of his thumb. By this time “Bill’ Souther was tremendously interested. Holding the sabre by the handle Lincoln stood up and looked about him. He evidently saw what he was looking for in a willow tree several feet away. Raising the mighty. weapon with his long arm, Lircoln reached and clipped one of the topmost twigs of the willow. When' he had thoroughly satisfied himself as to the efficiency of the broadsword he sat down., A few minutes later the cor respondence was closed on terms “honorable to both parties "~ ’ : As ‘the boat put back to Alton the spectators on the bank were horrified to see lying prone upon the deck & figure covered with blood, while a well-lknown Altonian leaned over the figure plying a fan vigorously. Not until the boat was close in shore was it seen that the figure was a log of wood and that the “bloody” covering was a red flannel shirt. Wentworth dropped the fan, stood up and grinned. o L : e A Lincoln story which will never die is the reply the president made to the criticism of Grant's habits. -Lin-

LINCOLN AND THE THEATER

: —_— ; N Former Manager Telis of Great Man's Fondness for the Playhouse. During the more than four years of his administration President Lincoln visited my theater more than 100 times. He often came alone, many times brought his little son, Tad, and on special occasions, Mrs. Lincoln. As faras I knew he was never accompanied by any other member of his

They recall the movement to make him Yicepresident on the ticket with Fremont fn 1558, shich - fortunately was ahandoned on grounds of expediency. And they bention political acts of Lincoln which possess .no small significance when taken with suhsequent _events. John R. Spears of Tallula knew Lincoin from 1833, when he was a surveyor: He was prominent in the politics of the day. He heard Lincoln speak in the Har rison convention of IHnolg in 1840 and in support of the nomination of Clay before the Whig convention of lillnols in 1844, and on other occasions hefore the Republl- - can party organized. ‘Mr. Spears has this recollection of the beginning of the Republican movement: . ~ "Lincoln called a meeting of a few {riends at a country store where Tallula row is. He had heen a survevor when the county (mow Menard) was a part of Sangamon. He knew almostgeveryhody. There were 40 or 50 in the gathering at the store. Mr. Lidcoln made a talk reviewing political conditions and offéring suggestions as to the future. He called for some paper to write down ‘what position he thought should be taken upon the ques ‘tions of the day, especially upon slavery. There was no paper to be had. Lincoln drew a newspaper from his pocket, lay down on the cellar door and wrote on the ‘margin the essence of the principles which formed the - Republican party. This, I believe, was the first meeting of the kind in the United States. It was a year or more before the convention at Bloomington, where the Republican party of lllinois was started and where Lincoln made one of the best speeches of his life, which was lost.” / , : Mr. Spears does not recall the exact time of this meeting at which Lincoln wrote on the margin of a newspaper the first Republican platform. He knows that the meet-’ ing was called by Lincoln two years or more before the “national convention which nominated Fremont in: 1836. He knows that this enunciation of Republican principles ~ was before the Bloomington convention. ~ Martin L. Bundy wrote from Newcastle, Ind., ‘o the

| househoid, savs Leonerd Grover, in the Brooklyn Eagle. : 1 Mr. Nicolay and Mr. Hay, his secretaries, made frequent visits together, but did not personally accompany the president. . Mr. Gompert, the tutor, who was aiding in the education of Mr. Lincoln’s younger boys—Robert was away at Harvard-—oc{'asiomﬂ_}}{ came with Tad, never with the.president. It was manifest that Mr. Lin-|

| coln came to be alone. At times he invited me to sit in the box with him, *when such conversation as took place ‘was always about the theater. He was oot exacting. As is known, he was exceedingly conversant with Shakespeare. He enjoyed a classical representation, of which I gave many, with such stars as Charlotte Cushman, E. L. Davenport, James Wallack, Edwin Booth (his sole engagement in Wash‘ngton), but he was content to. be en{ertained, to be amused and to have his mind taken from that sea of

"The Whig National convention of 18487 Mr «Bundy writes, “was completely under the control of Toombs and Stephens of Georgla ° They had declded that Gen Tayior should he nominated 6o vo platforn but his record as a soldier and slaveholder Greeley was there from New York offering to gunrantee that thal state wonld cast {lB electoral vote fer Ulay if the convenlion would nominate him, ‘but the Tavior managers would lislen to no such proposition, no dogbt for the reason that Clay's record as a slaveholder was not satlsfactory lincoln and Greeléy both agreed after the informal bailot that it waswmiseless to press the nawme of Clay any longer, as the nomination of Taylor was a foregone conclusion, and It #0 turped dut. In the convesation of 1856, when Fremont - was nominated, the name of Lincoln was suggested for ".vi_cj&prmid?nt, but the leaders deemed it Wise to give the place to William M. Dayton 6f New Jersey, and it was, perhaps, fortunate for Lincoln That the canvention did so.” -~ The §th of August the Republicans had a raliy at Springfield. Christian county fent up a delegation. Wil liam T. Baker, who, while a boy, had ground lLincoln's -bags of corn for him durlng two years at the mill on the Sangamnon in the railsplitting days, was marshal of the delegation ’ o ; “We mustered 105 wagons, most of them having four or six horses, and loaded with CEristian county Republicans,” spid Mr. Baker. “On the way up we camped over - night on the Sangamon near Rochester. When we came to Springfield we formed in line an:! passed down in front of Lincoin's home, where we haltel Linco]n was standing on the steps shaking hands with hundreds of peaple who had come in to attend the rally. As, I rode up at the .head of- my delegation Lincoln left the steps, came out “to us, took me by the hand, and said: ‘How are you, Baker? Then he looked down the long line of wagons and men and said: ‘Baker, it must take a good many men to run a threshing machine in Chrigfian county.’” o While there were only seven joict. debates of formal character under the challenge, there were other occasions when Douglas and Lincoln flled appointments so close together as to afford the excitement of personal passages. - Lincoln was anxious to &et before the Democratic supporters of Douglas. He did not shun, but rather

troubles which awaited him elsw‘ where. On one occasion he said to‘ me: “Do you know, Mr. Grover, li really enjoy a minstrel show.” Mrs. Lincoln was fond of the opera, and during those weeks that 1 gave opera she and the president were almost nightly in attendance.

One of the most potable of Lincoln's imprompty, gshort addresses was that which {8 calledhis farewell at Springfield when he started for Washington. There are seviral versions of this speech. J H. Cheney of Bloomingion was one of the crowd “of not more than 180.” he says, who went to the Great Western depot and heard -the farewell address “This speech,” Cheney thinks, "haa seldop, if ever -been . correctly quoted in the histories o! Lincoln. ‘Nlcolay-and . Hay, who are all men vou wonld logk to for a correct version, fail to give it as it was spoken.” Mr. Cheney took the copy, which is here reprodnced, ‘from the Chicago Tribune, the morning after Lincoln's Yeparture. He thinks any one who will take the trouble to wompdre this with the version in the later historfes will agree with him that it is the better speéch. “My Friends—No one not in my sftuation can appre ciate my feelings of sadpess at this parting. To this place and the kindness of this people 1 owe everything. Here I have lived a quarter of a centuty, and have passed from a young to an old man. Here my childrea were born and one lies buried. : ' “I now leave, not knowing when or whether ever I may return, with a task before me greater than that which rested on the shoulders of Washington. . , .
