" - Singular Coincioskck.?A singular fact occurs in connection with the names of the Republican candidates for President and Vice President. It will lie seen that by connecting the two last syllables of each of their names, the word Lincoln is produced, and also hy connecting the two first syllables of each name, the word HamltA is spelt, It is v?ry retnaikable that two persons, whose names are capable of auch a transposition, should have bevi brought, by accident, in such a connection.
