NO MORE INVIDIOUS NAME-CALLING.
On returning from a carriage-drive into Washington, Mrs. Lincoln--who was not the Southern sympathizer the scandalous hinted--glanced at the city, and said aloud with bitterness:
"That city is full of our enemies!"
Had she a premonition on the fatal eve?
Right before the Marquis of Chambrun, their companion, the President serenely said:
"Enemies, Mary! Never speak of that!"
No wonder, when the dastardly taking off was bruited through the beaten but ever gallant South, they knew that they had lost "their best friend!" as General Pickett styled Lincoln.--(By the Marquis of Chambrun.)
