The beast peered at him astonished, bristled and growled, but either from a kind heart or suspecting a trap, trotted away with some show of dignity. He would have gone more slowly if certain of being seen, for the lion is noted for his vanity.

The dueling ground is directly across the river from Alton. In the early ilas of the state It was much frequented hy those who thought their honor required vindication with the pistol or sword, and the accessibility of the place soon j boast or the vengeanc lie wouid taKe, gave it a wide reputation.

Ridiculed the Auditor. Mr. Lincoln's meeting there Shields has furnished one ot the few ludl.TO.is episodes with which the de. I ing field has ever been credited. Shields : was then auditor of tbe state of Illi nois. The finances nf the state were in a deplorable condition: the treasury wmh empty; auditor's warrants were; veiling at half their nominal value; no tt.ore money was to be borrowed, and ' t i'!:)ti was dreaded bv both nolitlcal : psrtl 's n ore than disgrax-e.

It purported to come from a farmer's wld rtow, who expressed In this fashion her discontent with an evil course of af fair. Shields Was Furious, Shields was a man of Inordinate van ity and a corresponding Irascibility. He was for that reason an irresistible murk for satire. His fury against the un known author of the satire was the ubteet of much merriment In Bprlng IMd, The next week another letter ap peared rr"n a different hand.
