LINCOLN ON THE STUMP. His First Appaararsce as u Candidate fox Oflicc?Makias Firm Friends. Cf course, in the ten days left him j after his return from the Held, a canvass i of the county, which was men some j thousands of square miles in extent, | was out of the question, say the authors j of the "Life of Lincoln,1' now being pub- I listed in the Century. He made a few j si.ftsches in the neighborhood of Xew Salem, and at least one in Springfield. He was wholly unknown there except by his ft:*" comrades in arms. We find j him mentioned in the county paper only ! once during the summer, in an editorial ' note adding the name of Capt. Lincoln ' to those candidates for the legislature I who were periling their lives' 0:1 the ; frontier and had "left their reputations j in ciiarge of their generous fellow-citi- | zens at home. On the occasion of his j speaking at Springfield most of the can- j didates had come together to address a j . '- * ??. ^r.r.tAv: cnrtlA i meeuu^ uieiu tu gi*? iuu idc:i of their quality. Tncse were severe ordeals for the rash aspirants for popular favor. Besides those citizens who came to listen and judge there were many whose only object was the free whisky provided for the occasion, and who, after potations pottle-deep, became not only highly unparliamentary but even dangerous to life and limb. This wild chivalry of Lick Creek was, however, less redoubtable to Lincoln than it might be to an urban statesman unacquainted with the frolic brutality of Clary's Grove. Their gambols never caused him to lose his self-possession. It is related that once, while he was speaking, he saw a ruffian attack a friend of his in the crowd, and the rencontre not resulting according to the orator s sympathies, he descended froi.i the stand, seized the objectionable I fighting man by the neck, "threw him some ten feet," then calmly mounted to his place and finished his speech, the course of his logic undisturbed by this : athletic parenthesis. Judge Logan saw ! t.inr*r>in for the first time on the I day when he came up to Springfield on his canvass this summer. He thus j speaks of his future partner: "Ho was a very tall, gawky, and rough-looking fellow then: his pantaloons didn't meet his shoes by six inches. But after he be<ran speaking I became very much " interested in him. He made a very sensible speech. His manner was very much the same as in after life; that is, the same peculiar characteristics were apparent then, though of course in after years he evinced more knowledge and experience. But he had then the same novelty and the same peculiarity in presenting his ideas. He had the same individualitv that he kept through all his life." There were two or three men at the meeting whose good opinion was worth more than all the votes of Liek Creek ~~ ^ T T.rv_ IV Ulit; MCgUl tlilJ" k.'ivi/u^u -*- M*\S gan, a young lawyer who hud recently come from Kentucky with the beat equipment for a nisi prius practitioner e*.er brought into the state; Maj. Stuart, whom we have met in the Biackhawk war, one commanding a battalion and then marching as a private, and William Butler, afterward prominent in state politic;?, at that time a young man of the purest western breed in body and character, clear-headed and courageous, and ready for any emergency where a friend was to be defended or an enemv punished. We do not know where Lincoln gained any votes that day, but he gained what was far more valuable, the active friendship of these able arnl honorable men. all whigs and all Kentuckians like himself. The acquaintances he made in his canvass, the practice he gained in speaking, and the added confidence which this experience cf measuring his abilities with those of others gave, were all the advantages which Lincoln derived from this attempt, lie was defeated, for the only time in his life, in a contest before the people. The fortunate candidates were E. 1). Taylor* J. T. Stuart, Achilles ilorris, and Peter Cartwrigiit, the first of whom received 1.127 votes and the last $15. Lincoln's position among the cisrht defeated can - * w .11 T r diaates was a very respociaoie one. nt bad G57 votes, and there were live who fared worse, anions them his old adversary, Kirkpatrick. What must have been especirJiy gratifying; to him was the fact that he received the almost unanimous vote of h:s own neighborhood, the precinct of Xew Salem, 277 votes against 3. a result which showed more strongly than any words could do the extent of the attachment and the confidence which his genial and upright character had inspired among those who knew him best. Mr. Howells at Homo. He writes oniy in the morning, conscientiously and" with painstaking. After that lie devotes hmiseif to his family, to whom be is greatly attached, and oi whom he is justly proud. Besides the son, there is a daughter, now at the age of young ladyhood, who inclines somewhat to the literary taste, and "another, a sweet-faced little maid, already known to fame through the publication of ;t series of her remarkable, naive, childish drawings, in the volume entitled "A Little Girl Among the Old Masters." The children have the artistic impulse very strongly developed. In conversation Hovvells is not a voluble talker; he does not aspire to shine; there is little that is jMacaulayish, few tours ds force. On the other hand, he has what someone has described as the . dangerous trait of being an excellent listener. It might be said of him as it was of Mme. Kecamier, that he listens with seduction. Ke is not bent upon displaying his own resources, but upon penetrating the mind and heart oel'ore him. Perhaps this is the natural receptive mood of the deep student of character. And then it is so gracefully done, with such a sympathy and respect that when, afterward, you come to reflect that you have been talking a great deal too much for your own good, there comes, with the Hush, the reassuring fancy that after ail perhaps you have done it very well. His own conversation, I should say. is marked by sincerity of statement and earnestness of speculation, and at the same time brightened by a perpetual piay of humor. His humor warms like a gentle sunshine, aud we ail know how steely cold may be the brilliancy of mere wit. He is a humorist, I sometimes think, before almost anything else. He lakes to the humorist (even those of the broadest kind) with a kindred feeling. Both Mark Twain and Warner have been friends of his. He wanted to know Stockton and Gilbert before be had met them. And in this connection i may close with one o: the slighter bons mots of Gilbert. On the first visit to Ibis country in company with his collaborator, Sullivan he asked me something about the works of Howells. In reply 1 mentioned several, among them "Their Wedding Journey"?"a book," I said, "-which every young couple put into their baggage when starting oil' on a tour."

New York is to have a grand cathedral, one of the grandest and most costly in the world. It is to be erected by the Protestant Episcopal church, and will Ixs to that faith in this country what St. Paul's is to the church of England. Such a cathedral was projected years ago, but only recently have the plans for its erection taken anything like drfiuite form. The organization has been perfected, and among the trustees are Kcv. i Drs. Morgan Dix, of Trinity, and W. li. Huntington, of Grace, Hamilton Fish, | Stephen P. Xasb, W. W. Astor, Cornelius ! Yanderbuilt, Richard Auchmuty and J. ! Pierpont Morgan. Bishop Potter, who is one of the most J active promoters of the cathedral moveI ment. says that the great temple will not be set tariau in any narrov? sense. Its founders ! aspire to make it the great leligious forum : of Protestant Christianity in this country. ! The bishop says the cathedral will offer j "to all men, of whatever condition or fel! low.-hip, the ministrations of religion in a ' language understood by the common peo: pie, bidding to their pulpits the ablest and I most honored teachers, tree for meditation, ; devotion or rest at all hours, without fee or ! restriction," and thus be "a witness to the ! brotherhood of humanity in the bond of i the Divine Xazarene, and of the need of i the human heart for some worthy place ! and voice for the expressi m of its deepest j needs * * * Such a building would of | nec< ssity, under our present condition, re{ quire to be administered by the church | under whose control it would be reared, j but its welcome would be lor all men wliati soever fellowship, and it; influence would | be felt in the interests of our common : Christianity throughout the wholeJand." The cathedral will also he me centre ot : greiit educational and missionary effect,and I will promote charitable enterprises of vari i ous kinds. The cost of this splendid structure will be at least $6,000,000. The late Miss Cathe rine Wolfe intended to bequeath $1,000,000 to the cathedral fund and Lad inserted a clause in her will to that effect. She subsequently resolved to give that sum, and ! more, during her life and changed her will: j but death came before she could carry out ; her intentions. i It is not believed that a a}- great difficulty | will be experienced in raising the amount i required, great as it is. Mr. 1). Willis j James, a prominent Presbyterian of New i York, has put a bequest of $100,000 in his | will for the cathedral fund, thus giviDg an : impetus to the liberal spirit in which it is j to be built, as well as to the subscription list. : It is said tbut other bequests to the amount ! of more than half a million are in the I wills of wealthy citizens of New York. The grandest and most expensive church hnilriimr in this countrv now is St. Patrick's 1 of New York, but the Cathedral of St. ; John, as the Protestant Episcopal temple is : to be called, will cover four times as much i space as Sr. Patrick's, and will be corresI pondingly magnificent. Atlanta Constitution The Advancc in Coffee. (Philadelphia Times.; The bulls in the coffee corner in New ; York insist that the crop of coffee in Brazil ! wiil not be more than 2,500,COO bags, as j against the usual 4,000.000 bags; that Java j has but half a crop, and the upper South I American States and the "West Indies will I show a decided falling off, while the visible ! supply of the delight-giving berry is much smaller than ever before.

Doubtless the local distribution will ! be affected soonor or later, and probably | adulteration will be more largely practiced, | for there can be no doubt that the coffee I crop this year is much smaller than usual, ' especially in Brazil. We keep most of our stock in Xew York, aud can sell any amount as soon as offered at the market price." An old soldier has this to say apropos of the rise in the famous beverage: "Now luul colicc i* risiug su grcsuij' iu vmuf u ; will sooq become too expensive fur poor i people to use, and perhaps we will have to get some sort of a .substitute for it. In my knocking about the world I have seen a good many ways of living, and I have learned how to make better coffee than the article at the city hotels at about onelifth what it costs to make it there. I learned the trick in Kansas. It is to make your pure Java beverage with four parts of dan| delion root, dug when it is fresh and then ' roasted. The taste is that of coffee, and it has all the stimulating qualities that are desired." iloinance of a car conductor.

The gentleman's name is Miln, and he hails from Sioux City. He is known as the "Missouri River Rusher." His experience until very recently was confined wholly to country newspapers. He was employed on the Sioux City Journal, and subsequently went to Coicago. Ilis first work on metropolitan papers was in Chicago. He is; now employed on a Minneapolis paper. \ He was put'on a week ago Friday night-, j and worked seven successive nights, pasting i tm "atrinff" of 10i.000 cms. This is an average of 14,42s ems per night. The work was on "straight matter." Miln having hail but very little "phat" and no ponuses during the week.

The June report of the United States Department of Agriculture shows an increase of 1 per cent, in the acreage of cotton. There appears to be a slight decline in the States of the Atlantic coast, and an increase west of the Mississippi. The State averages are: Virginia 90, North Carolina 99.6, South Carolina 98, Georgia 98.5, Florida 97, Alabama 100, Mississippi 100.4, Louisiana 102, Texas 106, Arkansas 102.5, Tennessee 100. The condition of cotton is higher than in any year since 18S0, averaging 96.7, and /-ntiIt- Viucn three times since Xiao UiiiJ k/vvu VAVWVV*V?* ? ? 1870. The best'yield in that period was in 1882, when the June condition was 89, a figure that has been discounted six times since 1870. It is a good beginning, but does not insure a good crop.^ The State averages are: Virginia 99. North Carolina 99, South Carolina 98, Georgia 99, Florida 9S, Alabama 99, Mississippi 99, Louisiana 97, ; Texas 91, Arkansas 98, Tennessee 87. General average 9G.7. There is generally an unusually good "stand." In Texas early planted cotton did not come up well. The late planting I is better. There is now a full plant in some j fields in Arkansas. Clean cultivation is i reported as a rule, and healthy color and J good growth.

The Statue of Robert Burnt). j The bronze statue of Robert Burns, ! which will be erected in Washington Park ! at Albany, is the work of Calverier, the i New York sculptor. The pose is extremely j graceful. The poet sits with one hand I holding a book which rests upon his ri^bl i knee. The other hand hamjs by his left | side and firmly grasps a bonnet. The I shawl, leggings and shoes are faithfully ; copied. The "figure will be seven feet and j six inches high" and will stand on a nine : loot peaesiai, consisting 01 v^uuiuy giiiun;:, j surmounted by a die of highly polished : granite from Aberdeen, Scotland. On the | four sides will be bronze panels inlaid in ! the stone and illustrating "Tarn O'Slianter," 'TheCotter's Saturday.Night," "The Plowman" and "Tarn O'Shanter and Soutar Johnny." On a small raised tablet at the lower edge of the die will appear the | word Burns, with a wreathing beneath it. The opposite side will be inscribed, "The Macplierson legacy to the city of Albany,''' and the whole will be one of the most graceful figures in any of our public parks. After Five Yearn. j A Danville special to the Richmond Dispatch, dated Saturday, says: Robert Grove, an alleged escaped convict from Raleigh, N. C., has been arrested here.

At the crossing of the Baltimore ami Ohio, and Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis railroads at Sheiby, Thursday, the freight cn the former ran into a freight on the latter. Twenty-live cars and two engines were demolished, causing a loss of $75,000. Engineer Lyons, of the Baltimore and Ohio, was fatally injured. The Baltimore and Ohio train had broken in two, and the engineer was trying to avoid a collision between the two secj tions when the accident occurred.

He declares that there is no proof ' of any exceptional abundance of phosj phorus in fish. On the contrary, he argues that an extended series of analyses in his laboratory has shown that the proportion of phosphorus disclosed i:i the flesh of ordinary animals used for food is quite as great as that ascertained to exist in the species of fish that arc aUc ; used for food. Mr. Atwater says that ! we are a race of fat-eaters, and that the | difference, so far as the nutritive qualii ties are concerned, between fish anil or! dinary meat is in the different proportions in which water and oily or iattv matter are respectively found. The fiesh of fi=h has water where nif ats havt fat.
