“Tun Presidents Lint is Danger.”—The
New York Commercial (rep.) announces seri
ously that Lincoln’s life is in danger—office
seekers are killing him. On his way to the
seat of government, rumors were rife of thc
existence of secret conspiraccs against his life;
but it never seemed to enter into the heads of
republicans that the greatest danger to be
apprehended arose from the shoes of office seek
ers. “Tho effects of these worrying importu
nities," says the Commercial, “have already
made themselves manifest on Mr.. Lincoln ;
and fears arc entertained that, unless relief is
obtained, ho may sink, under those assaults,
like Presidents Harrison and Taylor." .
