We are requested by the Secretary of

state that the contemplated celebration at

by the Lodge at that place, owing to

wilt rhyme with hie name, the song*

baa ptiuled the wits, but at last a bard
y( the New York Evening Poet has
made the necessary discovery. The
words are, 44 drink o?," and they are
[>eculiarly appropriate, from the intimate
connection of Republican politics
ind whisky.?Savannah Republican.
There are two other words equally
k? appropriate as rhymes to the name
if Lincoln. Really, we do not know
>uL what they are more appropriate in
onsideration of the corruptness of his
irinriple*. The words are, ** stink oh.1'

nake coiled around her child, with one
if its hands down the snake's throat.?
iVith true molherlv affection, she seised
lie child, not curing for the snake, when

It was about seven inches by eleven,

which was filled with' faggots and
tar, and him and his stock ofTsdtndiarj

- 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.
