[n his quaint ways and humane philoso- ptie: Lincoln showed at all times his deep sympathy &nd feeling of fellow- ship for mankind The followirg ex- pr2s:ions by him e well worth study. N¢ man is good enough togovern an- otle ' man, without that otier’s consent. My eariv life s perfectly characteri- zel bty asingle live from Gray’s Elegy: ““T'he short and simple annals of the poor.”’ The Lord must ‘ove the common peopie —that’s why he made so many of them I am not a-hamed to confess that 25 years agoIwas a hired laborer, mauling rails, at work on a flit brat—jlst what mizht happen to any poor man’s son. Die when I may, I want it said of me by those why know me best, that 1al- ways plucked a thistle and planred a flywer when I thought a flower would grow. Whan you have an elephant on hand and he wants to ruu away, better let him run. : I dont know any hing about meney. I never had epough of my own to fret me. You cant put a long sword in a short scabbard. . Waen vou can’t remove an obstacle plow around it. In law it is a gocd poliey to never plead what vou need not, lest you oblige your- self to prove what you cannot. You will never get me to support a measure which I believe to be wrong, al- t'ough by doing soI may accomplish at vhich 1 believe to be right.—The Paihfinder, Aug. 18th.
