LINCOLN'S ASSASSINATION.
Jeff. Davis on the Death of the Mar
tyr President.
Wc arrived :it (Juiirlultc on April
lb. lSl.", ami 1 them received at the
moment of dismounting a telegram
from Gen. llreckenride anuounc
ifi4", ou information received from
Geueral Sherman, that President
Liucoln had heen assassinated. An
influential citizen of the town, who
had come to welcome me, was stand
ing near me, and, after remarking
to him in a low voice that I had re
ceived sad intelligence. I handed
the telegram to him. Some troop
ers encamped in the vicinity had
collected to see rae; they called to
the gentleman who had the dispatch
in his hand to read it, no doubt sup
posing it to be army news. He
complied with their request, and a
few, only taking in the fact but not
appreciating the evil it portended,
cheered, as was natural at the news
of the fall of one they considered
their most powerful foe. The man
who invented the story of my hav
iug read the dispatch with exulta
tion had free scope for his imagina
tion, a ho was not present and had
no chance to know whereof he bore
witness, even if there had been any
foundation of truth for his fiction.
For an enemy so relentless in the
war for our subjugation we could
not be expected to mourn, yet in
view of its political consequences it
could not be regarded otherwise
than as a great misfortune to the
south. He had power over the
northern people and was without
personal malignity toward the peo
ple of the south. His successor was
without power in the north and the
embodiment of malignity towards
the southern people, perhaps the
more so because he had betrayed
and deserted them in the hour of
their need.
General Sherman iu his Memoirs,
(volume ii. page :il!), reterring to a
conversation between him and Gen
eral Johnston at their tirst meeting,
writes:
"I told him I could not believe be
or General Lee, or the oflicers of the
confederate army, could possibly be
privy to acts of assassination, but I
would not say as much for Jen".
Davis, Geo. Saunders and men of
hi stripe."
On this I have but two remarks to
make: First, that I think there were
few otlicers iu the confederate army
who would have permitted such a
Manderous imputation to be made
by a public enemy against the chief
executive of their government; sec
ond, that I could not value the good
opinion of the man who. in regard
to the burning of Columbia, made a
false charge against General "Wade
Hampton, and, having left it to cir
culate freely for ten years, then iu
his published memoirs makes this
disgraceful admission:
"In my official report of the con-
llagration I distinctly charged it to
Gen. Wade Hampton, and confess I
did it so pointedly, to shake the
faith of his people in him, etc."
From the Kisc ami Fall of the Con
federacy. An Accident All ltoitmt.
A moit ridiculous scene occurred
at a church in Newcastle. A po
liceman was passing the church as a
gentleman came out. The man jok
ingly accented tlie policeman, and
said ho was wanted inside, meaning
that the minister would be glad to
have him turn from the errors of
his whj-s, and seek the truth and
enjoy a peace that passeth all un
derstanding. The stupid policeman
thought there was some trouble in
the church, so he went in. The sex
ton, seeing a policeman, was anxious
to give him a favorable seat, so he
said, "Come right in here," and he
took him to a pew and waved his
baud as much ae to say "help your
self." There was another man in
tho pew, a deacon with a sinister
expression as the policeman thought,
and he supposed that was the man
they wanted arrested, so he tapped
the deacon ou the arm and told him
to come aloug. The deacon turned
pale and edged aloug as though to
get away, when the policeman took
him by the collar and jerked him
out into the aisle. The deacon
struggled, thinking the policeman
was crazy, and tried to get away,
but ho was dragged along. Many
of tne congregation thought the dea
cou had been doing something
wrong, and some ot them got be
hind the deacon and helped tire him
out. Arriving at the lock-up, the
policeman saw the man who told
him he was wanted in the church,
and asked him what the charge was
against the deacon, and he didu't
know, so the sexton was appealed
to, and he didn't know, and liually
the prisouer was asked what it was
all about and he didn't know. The
policemau was asked what he ar
rested the man for and he didu't
'know, and after awhile the matter
was explained and the policemau,
who had to arrest somebody, took
the mau into custody who told him
lie was lined $." and costs.
The Cominjr Stale Fair.
It is not too soon for farmers and
all others who intend exhibiting at
the coming stale fair to begin pre
parations to that end. We expect
to sec on that occasion one of the
finest shows within the history of
the state, and if the people can be
made to feel the interest that should
take possession of them in the mat
ter of exhibiting their products if
they can be made to understand that
their individual exertion is essential
to complete succes-j we have no
doubt of what the result will be.
Managers of the fair are leaving
nothing undone on their part to in
sure a display of which they and
every citizen of the sta.te may feel
proud, and it now remaius with the
great body of exhibitors to say to
what extent their labors will be
crowned with success. The attrac
tions which they have provided will
tend to bring together a great body
of people, not only from this, but
adjacent states; but along with the
people we want to see an exhibit
which will richly repay them for
their attendance.
If what Nebraska has done here
tofore in her state fair stock exhibits
is kept up we know what that de
partment will present the comiug
fall ; but we want to see a still bet
ter showiug in this liuc, and we be
lieve it can be done. The condi
tion in which we find stock now,
and the character aud growth of the
grasses, warrant the belief that what
has been shown heretofore can be
completely outdone in the future
if preparation to that end is be
gun in time. As to the agricultural
display, the indications arc that that
too can be greatly improved upon, not
only iu the quantity of the display
but in the character as well. The
growth is almost certain to be at
tained, and if the farmers can be in
terested in the matter of bringing
specimens of their products for ex
hibit, we shall undoubtedly have an
exhibition creditable to the people,
to the state, aud to the society under
whose auspices the good work was
carried successfully forward. Oma

The 4Joil(.') Old Time.
It sounds very poetical to say "the
good old times," but if we should
be strictly truthful, having an eye
upon the actual rather than upon the
sentimental, we should be more in
clined to designate them as the
"mean old times,1' especially if, by
some powerful freak of nature, we
should be takeu up and set back
among the days that tell to the lot of
thoBe who were men and women
when our grand-parents were little
children. It is no wonder that Ben
jamin Fraukliu, with his prophetic
vision, wished it had been his des
tiny to be born two or three ceutu
ries later. Thiuk of the journeys
then requiring days, that may uow
be accomplished in as many hours,
and with far more comfort. Think
of sitting in church winter after
winter without the cheerful light of
a fire; save that which was kindled
in the imagiuation by the glowing
eloquence of the preacher, as he de
scribed the torments of the "damn
ed." Think of paying forty or fifty
dollars a year for a newspaper, and
think, also, of the beggarly little
sheet and all its meagre qualities!
Think of living without a friction
match iu the house, or a tooth-brush,
or a carpet, or gaslight, or furnaces,
or a sewing machine, or doing with
out overshoes and umbrellas, and a
thousand other things that we call
necessities. It is startling to con
sider the multitude of things, small
and great that we possess, which
contribute to our comfort, our wel
fare, our ease, our enjoyment, that
were utterly unknown to our inno
cent grandfathers, and never could
have entered their dreams. The
spirit of progress consults our con
venience and multiplies advantages
in every direction, enhancing the
charms of life, diminishing its pains,
and inviting us to come, welcome
and enjoy its innumerable gifts.
The ICelinblo .linn.
Of all the qualities that combine
to form a good character, there is
not one more important than re
liability. Most emphatically is this
true of a good business man. The
word itself embraces both truth and
honesty, aud a reliable man must
necessarily be truthful and honest.
We see so much all around us that
exhibits the absence of this crown
ing quality, that we are tempted, in
our bilious moods, to deny its very
existence. But there are, neverthe
less, reliable men, iu whom you may
repose confidence, whose word is as
good as their bond, and whose
promise is performance.
If any one of you know such a
mau, make him your friend. You
can only do so, however, by assim
ilating his character.
The reliable mau is a man of good
judgment. He does not jump at
conclusions. He is not a frivolous
man. He is thoughtful. He turns
over a subject in his mind, and looks
at it alt around. He is not a partic
ular or a one-sided man. He sees
through a thing. He is apt to be a
reticent man. He dues not have to
talk a great deal. He is moderate,
uot only in habits of body, but also
of mind. He is not a passionate
mau : if so by nature, he has over
come it by grace. He is a sincere
man, uot a plotter or schemer. He
does uot promise rashly. What he
jays may be relied ou. He is a
trustworthy mau. You feel safe
with your property or the adminis
tration of a flairs in his hands. He
is a brave man, for his conclusions
are drawn from the sure basis of
truth, and he does not fear to main
tain them. He is a good man, for
no one can be thoroughly truthful
and honest without beiug good. Is
such a quality attainable? Most
assuredly so. It is not born, it is
made. Character may be formed,
of course; then its component parts
may be modeled to that formation.
The LanKini-o ot" Sweet Six
teen. j "Mv daughter never uses slang,"
'a)s some staid paterfamilias, who
I is denouncing the idea that the
American young lady speaks any
j other than the purest college taught
j English, and he is sincere in his
j belief. But should some curious
senior, with an eye to the truth,
linger near this young lady and her
school friends, ten to one this is an
exact aud uot overdrawn description
of what he would hear :
"Meet me on the ave' this aft' and
we will go to the mat'."
"No, not this aft' ou the ave'."
"Well, good aft'!"
"I had a perfectly mag' time, and
don't you forget it."
"Don't give me away, Kate!"
"Well, I should softly exclaim!'"
"I should blush to murmur!"
"I should remark!"
"should mutter!"
mIAohM smile!"
"Are you goiug to the musicale?"
"You just bet I am !'"
"Have you got your lesson in
physical geography ?"
"What do you take me for?"
"I told the Guv' I wanted a new
handkerchief dress."
"Did he tumble to the racket ?"
"Did he trail?"
"Did he catch on ?"
"He forked over, girls, and it's
my treat!"
These arc the sweet girl graduates
who stand up in the mouth of roses
and read charming essays on "The
Ileal and the Ideal," "Life as it
Should Be," "Reforms," and other
practical subjects and who turn
from admiring teachers, to whom
they have listened with tears in their
mock-serious eyes, to say iu a low
aside, ''He's giving us tally, girls,"
and who christen everything that
does not please them as "snide."

A negro passing along Fleet
street, was astonished at heariug a
voice call out, "How d'ye do massa
Mungo?" How d'ye do Snowball?"
and, on looking up, observed it pro

gilt cage. "Aha, massa parrot," said
blackie, "you a great man here!
You live in a gold house; but me
knew your fadder very well. He

He drew his breath with a gasp

"Mother sent me," said a little girl
to a neighbor, "to ask you to come
and take a cup of tea with her this
evening. "Did she say at what time,
my dear?" "No ma'am; she only
said she would ask you, and then
the thing would be off her mind.
That was all she said."
"Is your wife a Democrat or a
Republican?" asked one Rockland
citizen of another, recently. "She's
neither," was the prompt response,
and then glancing cautiously around
and sinking his voice to a hoarse
whisper, he explained, " She's a
Home Ruler."
