The Atlantic Monthly lor June con- J tains a most interesting article on i Abraham Lincoln by Carl Sohurz, j which brings out in strong li^ht the ] strange contradictions thai were found j in him, a::d which, Mr. Schuiz thinks,: enabled him to play so successful the I very difficult part imposed on him by j the great crisis ot the war. Lincoln . was born from the poorest cia>s of ; society, ilis parents were shiftless, j and it was :;0t until his lather married i a second liaie that the hoy began to be anything bnt hi: unkempt urchin. He ; worked hard all day and then read what few books he could lay his hands | on, among them "-loop's Fables," | ..TI.w.I. I.tin > fHi* ;hf? I d??:e and moral tij.it he* used su aptly [ attei wards in argument a'ud illustra-j tiun. He learned to wiite with charcoal 0:1 while hoard, and the limita-1 ? tions thus imposed compelled him to Jk condense i.i< idtas into the femallest j p| compass. As his mind became strong- j ||| cr, and his intellect more subtle :ir.d j |pt refined, hi< homely munncrs did not i ilia, keep pac?, and to the last lie presented j ' ; ttrange incongruity oi' comma d- j t'itmrMlK ftiul i r *"* "o?- - ^ gant expression in his written procla- , illations and spoken addresses, and a i rudeness and simplicity of manner! which often reached inelegance and I bufT'-'Onery. Lincoln thus held his grip on the j nu-se.-, of whom he was one, while i i he convinced or overmastered thej leaderj! of his party. A.'r. ^eltuiz thinks that honesty and ; .-vuipuihy were the strong character- j wic* of Piesulent Lincoln; ami lie J adduces a yood many ?triking illustrations u! proot. His Gettysburg speech and the conclusion of his second inaugural certainly breathe ?. lof.y and catholic spirit. It would be well for our people to j read something aboiu Abraham Lin*! coin. L?y many he has been regarded ! as the arch enemy of the South; and, the anecdotes told of him picture him as a low bred, uncouth partisan, j "While allo wances must be made for ! Uie utterances 01 tnose who uvea m : ;he North and saw Lincoln only 'through the glamour cf ardent union j proclivities, still an impartial ciitic,; alter stmiring his lite, with its diffieul-; ties and trials, from open enemies ! without, and secret foes within, must; be impressed with the belief that he j was a great man,?much greater and much better than most of his associates. I At this day they can free themselves; lrom unjust prejudices and respect j iiiui for what he wa-s. To the inquirer no introduction can l>e more pleasant j than that siren bv Mr. Sehuiz. ! _ m j , ?The benelits of vacation season j maybe greatly enhanced, if, at t he i same time, the blood is being cleansed ; and vitalized by the use of Ayer's Sar- j aparilla.

Judge Hudson's charge to the graiul ' jury during the term of Court, which 1 has just closed and which has been 1 pllDUSlieU 111 1IIK .\h?5 am) iiuiali'. is full of many wise and sensible sug- ! gestions. aud deserves the careful and thoughtful consideration of the people. Judge Hudson is one of the ablest of our judiciary and lias given a great deal of thought to the defects and # i weaknesses in the machinery for the ' administration of justice, and his suggestions a? to needed changes are entitled to, and worthy of. the attention , of our people and the members of the ' Legislature. .Judge Hudson points out the tendency to magnify ami make the Court of (ieneral Session* practically the only Court. His remarks 011 this and the result which has inevitably fol- 1 lowed from making the criminal Court paramount to the Common Fleas, are especially forcible. As lie well said, ! any one can soon learn criminal law ? 1 .... I:uia it- 1 occ;iuse uifru is vui \ muc ui n, Him t he most learned lawyers frequently ' refuse to practice in it. Again the ' Court of General Sessions is concerned 1 with the trial of a class of our citizens who own no property and contribute little or nothing to the support of the 1 government, yet nearly all of the term 1 is taken up with this Court, and litigants on the civil side, frequently where large pecuniary interests arc at 1 stake, are driven out of Court because their cases arc on the docket from term to term, and rather than have a case of ' Jaundyce cs. Jaundyce they prefer to abandon their rights or ^compromise their cause as best they can. This is a very serious matter, ami affects the whole business interests of the country. Judge Hudson suggests that the Court i ot' Common Pleas be held first, and the General Sessions afterwards. This : would virtually guarantee that iiti- ( gants would have a day certain when ; fiitir r>nai?c will l>f> find <rivCll ail opportunity fur a hearing. The bail : results of the present system lias been strikingly shown by the term just ( closed. The Court of General Sts- : sions consumed Monday. Tuesday. : Wednesday and nearly all of Thurs- i day. There are a number of equity sauses which had to be continued. . His Honor's proposed changes about the time for convening the fall Court : and summer Court, are good, and if ! made would be of great interest to the ' farmers ?.nd others. <io;; aiivl at IJaeearat.
