Tns Ex emotion Bill.—Wo have re
ceived several lotters making enquir
ies concerning tho Exemption Bill.—
There lias no new Exemption Bill .pass
ed Congress. The Senate lias pnssed
one, but it has yet to be acted upon by
tho House, and to receive the signature
of the President. The bill that lias been
published by several papers is only the
Senate bill. It may be altored and
.tmendod so ns to be an entiroly diffor
ent bill before it becomos a law. It
ought never to have been published
until perfected. —Chronicle.
• Congress.
This body has now been in session
about two and if half mouths. The.
enquiries saluto our ears dally—what
lias Congress done? what nro they
doing? &c. Wo aro uttorly unable to
answer these questions, but fool more
disposed to repoat them than to make
an attempt to answer them. All that
we can ie'arri from the papers is, that
such and such a hill was postponed
preceding tho considerations of such
aud such a bill and tho amend
ments offered thereto, the Sonate or
tho House, as the case may bo, on mo
tion of Mr. Somebody, went into secret
session. The truth is wo dislike very
much tho position of a grumblor, hut
it does appear to us, that there is great
inefficiency somewhero, and that the
people are beginning to find it out, or
rathor have found it out. It would
seem that enongh time and debate was
spent at the Inst session on that miser
able thing, called "the exemption biU,”
to have produced something produc
tive of some good, but alas! nothing
but evil and discontent was tho result
This same bill has boon proposed to be
repealed or amended at tho present
session, and from tho papers, one would
suppose, had been one of the promin
ent objects of the Legislature. Still
after a session of two and a half
months, nothing definite is dono, and
too on a measure, that to us nothing of
justice or equality in it to recommend
it to the approval of tho country, or
that of fair thinking men. Indeed so
far as experience under this exemp
tion law proves anything, it has only
proved a hiding plnco for thousands,
who are physically able, but mentally
unwilling, to do their share of the fight
ing, as will bo the case in all exemp
tion laws wliioli they may pass.
The financial question has also beon
one on which much debate, postpon
ement, “secret session,” &a., &c., has
been expended, hitherto without any
results. These, qnd others are ques
tions of absorbing interest to tho people,
and the country, and upon which these
postponements and "secret sessions,”
hnve not given gene.-al satisfaction.—
If Congress would simply say, this is a
war in which every man that is physt.
Cully able, shall tight his equal share ;
und every man who is pecuniarily able,
shall pay his 'equal'share of tho expen
ses—the people would be satisfied and
contented, and press the work through
with a hearty good will.

tho war commenced, has taken no part
in public affairs, is coming again into

It is also said that lie holds opinions

Recapture or New Orleans.—Tlio
Memphis Appeal thinks tho recapture
of the downtrodden city of New Or
leans fiom its Ynnkco persecutors is
not only possiblo, but prubablo, at mi
early day. It a"gues that tlio capture
of tho Quocn of tho West and Indian
oln lias placed tho menus of so great
an achievement in our power. Should
tho last named boat bo saved from
wreck and repaired, we shall have n
force sufficient to go in pursuit of tho
Essex, which is, wo believe, tho only
iron clad boat the Ynnitccs havo be
low Port Hudson. With this vessel in
pur possession, the rcmalndor of the
enemy’s fleet, all wooden crufts, togetli
er with Now Oi'leuns, would fall an on-
sy prey to tho powers of our arms.
The project is a glorious one, and we
must confess it looks ontiroly reason
able. In Heaven’s name, push it for
ward to an early consummation! Wo
havo evidently tlio Yankees at. a disad
vantage, and the brilliancy of the
achievement will render the Horse
Marines of tho West immortal.
Euonosit.—In viow of tho high price
and the scanty supply or provisions, the
Richmond Enquirer advises the peoplo
to limit their consumption of meat to a
quartet of n pound to each person per
day. Two light meals per duy, the En
quirer avers, is sufficient. It also ad-
visqp that the horses and mules be taken
core of so that they may bo used for
food ns a last resort. As this advice is
given in all seriousness, it becomes us
to rcceivo it in tho same manner, but
we make the motion that the editor of
tho Euquirer shall bo the first man to
experiment on ihplo meat'. Why, tlio
author of such a proposition is worse

The true Pedigree and Early History
ol Abraham iAiicoln.
Editor of the Intelligencer :
.Sorno time ago an article appeared
in your paper, copied from one of your
exchanges, purporting to give tho ped
igree and early history of Abraham
Lincoln, the President of the United
Stntes. As the article in question
abounded in errors, which tho writer
of this article, by personal acquain tanr.e,
with the subyeot, is enabled to correct;
and as the subjsot itself is one of gen
eral interest, ho feeW it to be his duty
to lay boforo tho public a true state
ment of the facts.
The man known as Abraham Lincoln,
who now sits in tlio seat once occupied
respectively by Washington, Madison,
Jefferson, and Jackson, was born in
tlio county of Hardin, now the county
of Larue, in tho State of Kentucky,
and about, forty miles from where tho
writer of this urtiolo lives when at
home. The mother was a single wo-
man of very low social position, liy tho'
name of Hannah llnnks. Sho was
generally reputed to havo from one-
eighth to one-sixteenth of negro blood
in her veins, and always associated
with negroes on terms of equality.—
According to tlio statement of Hannah
Hanks, her illegitimate child was the
son ol Abraham lnlow, (who was still
alive and in Kentucky in September
in 1861.) I have, myself, heard her
mnko this statement. Morcovor, lnlow
always claimed tho child ns his own.
Here, then,' is tlio testimony of the
two witnesses most conversant with
ilie facts, both establishing beyond
enval tlinl lnlow is Lincoln's father.
I will hero give you a few facts in
regard to lnlow. Ho was originally
from North Carolina, but emigrated to
Kentucky when very young. * IIo is
quite tall, being about six feet three
inches in height. IIo goes bnrefooted
in tho stimmor, and I havo never scon
him with a coat on but once. His
pants are held up by ono suspender
only, worn over the left shoulder. His
noso is disfigured by having a piece
about the size of a dime bit out of it
in n fight.
When little Abo was four years and
six months old his mother intermarried
with a man by the name of Lincoln,
und tlio boy was ufterwads called by
his step father's name. One night old
Lincoln coming homo and finding
lnlow at his houso, felt those pangs
which onco disturbed tho noble Othollo
and enused him to immolate tho spot
less Desdemonn. He felt those sud
pangs, but lio did not go elf into solil
oquies nor talk tragedy, but like a
backwoodsman of the coarser mould
ho pitched into lnlow, nncl they laid
a regular “set to.” Lincoln bit off' a
portion of Inlow’s nose, and tlio latter
deprived Lincoln of ono joint of his
thumb. After this aft'air old 'Lincoln
became extremely cruel to Abo, and
his mother found it necessary to send
him to live with a lady who lived in
the neighborhood. Thoro ho remained
until he was about thirteen years of
age. By this time he was able to work
oil tho farm, ami old Lincoln relented
towards him and permitted him to
return and live with Him. The lady
who gave Abo a home at this time was
Mrs. MeBriyde, who afterwards moved
to Nashville, Tennessee, and who was
still living on the fith of February, 1862,
at which time tiie writer of this article
saw her und conversed with her. She
can substantiate tlio statements here
made. During Abo’s residence at Mrs.
McBriyile's ho was sent to an ordinary
old field school lor threo years, aud
thon obtained the rudiments of a
ough education.
After his return homo lie went no
jggjjo to school. Keithor old Lincoln
nor his wife (Abe’s mother) could rend
and could not see tlio use of an educa
tion.- Abe was now put to hard jvork,
and was Avon, compelled to work on
Sunduys. This lie could not stand, so
ho ran away from Lincoln, and went lis
o hand on an Ohio" flat boat. From
this position lie was promoted, to the
position of a deck hand on it steam
boat. AftU'ivards ho quit the river,
went into Illinois, near Springfield,
and bccamo clerk of n saw mill, He
soon afterwards studied law and com
menced practicing boforo magistrates’
courts. With bis subsequent history
tho public aro acquainted, und Ido
riot propose to speak of it iny object
being to supply information concern
ing that portion of his life which seem
ed to bo least understood.
There aro two prominent facts in
this brief recital to which I would call
attention. One of theso is tho African
blood and low associations of Abe
Lincoln’s mother. Here it was that
he must have obtained his notions of
nogro equality.. Having imbibed it in
his mother’s milk, can wo oxpect him
ever to rise superior to it? UL'an tile
Ethiopian change his skin, or tho leo
pard bis spots ? ”
The other circumstance to which I
have alluded, and which doubtless had
a potent influence in tho formation of
Abo’s character, was tho cruel treat
merit which lie rooeived from his step
father. This hud tlio effect of harden
ing a nature by no means soft, and
rendering him a fit tool for carrying
out tho hellish purposes of tho Aboli
tion party. Let no man deceive him
self with hopes based on any supposed
feeling of humanity in Lincoln's na
ture. Tho bastard son of Hannah
Hanks—the victim of a slop-father's
cruelty lias a grudge against the human
family. His early training makes it
impossible for him to feel the “dint of
pity,” and ho will repay upon society,
with interest, the cruelty which in
early life he experienced.

From Vicksburg.
The correspondent of tlio Mobile
Advertiser, writing from Vicksburg
says :
If Vioksburg should ever be so un
fortunate, as to fall into the bands of
the enemy, it will bo accomplished by
tho untiring exertions of some of our
own Southern people, rather thstn by
tiie assault of the enemy. Tho un
quenchable thirst for speculation has
already brought a degree of privation
and destitution upon this place, that
would otherwise have remained stran
gers and at a great distance. But
spirit of speculation lias taken hold of
almost everybody, and every interest is
sacrificed to Mammon. To such nii ex
tent lias this spirit reached, that it now
pervades every class of people and ovo
ry branch of business, and tlioso fami
lies whoso stays tire in tho army suffer
severely from it.
The same'correspondent adds «
Railroads are no doubt a great bene
fit to the oountry, but the way things
have been managed for the last six
months Iiub compelled the peoplo to
pay dearly for everything that nmy
have to be transported in that wait—
It is to bo hoped that'Mr. Footols-iffllu

can endure the threats and endeavors
of the enemy, but to be starved by our
own speculators and extortioners is
more than our patience will endure.
