Unrolii anil tlir Little Girl. Youth's Companion. Will the world ever know wl at depth of tendernen?s there was in tin 1 heart ol Abraham Lincoln? An anecdote, which has never b*en published brings out one more instance in which his sympathies, awakened b\ a little child, nobly con trolled his action. In one of the first skirmishes oft he civil war, a young union soldier was so severely wounded in the leg that the limb had to be amputated. On leaving the hospital, theyoung soldier, by the aid of influential gentlemen, ob tained a position as a government weigher of hay and grain. Not long after he had entered upon his duties, his superior of ficer said to him: “See here, Mr. M , this hay weighs so much on these scales; but to the gov ernment it weighs so much more. ’ “1 do not understand, sir. that way of doing business. I can enter but one weight and that is the correct one, answered theyoung weigher. Jlis superior walked . away uttering threats. Theyoung man from that day suffered many petty persecutions for his honesty, and it was not long before he received notice that the government had no further need for his service. Ihe sum mary dismissal made him so down-hearted that when he told the story to his family, he seemed a man without hope. “Father, replied the eldest daughter, a girl of thirteen, “cheer up! I am going to see President Lincoln. I know lie will make it all right.’’ Her father and mother tried to turn her purpose, saying that it would be useless to see the president, as he would not attend to such a petty matter as the dismissal of a weigher of grain. But her faith in the president’s sense of justice was so strong that she went to the \\ bite House, and, alter three days of patient waiting in the ante room, was admitted to Mr. Lincoln's presence. The hour for receiving visitors had nearly expired, and as she entered the room the president, throwing himself on a lounge, said, wearily, ‘'Well, my little girl, what can I do for you? She told her artless story. Mr. Lincoln listened attentively, and with a smile asked, “But how, my dear, do I know that your statement is true?’’ “Mr. President,” answered the girl, with energy, “you must take my word for it.” “1 do,” rej died the president, rising and taking her hand. “Come with me to Mr. Stanton.” ‘■Stanton,” said Mr. Lincoln, as they entered the office of the great war secre tary, “1 wish you would hear this child s story." “1 have no time,” answered the’over worked man. ■“But you must,” replied Mr. Lincoln. “1 have not a moment to spare to-day, Mr, President." “Come again, my dear, to-morrow, and Mr. Stanton will hear you then,” said the president, leading her away. The next day she was admitted at once to the president, who took her over to Mr. Stan ton *s office. The secretary listen ed to the child’s simple story, and was so moved by if that he indignantly exclaimed before she had finished, “The infernal rascal !" He went to his desk and wrote an order for the immediate dismissal of the dishonest official, and for theappoint ing the little-girl’s father to the vacant place. Mr. Lincoln never forgot the child; he told her story to several congressmen, and through their influence her two brothers were enrolled among the pages of the House of Representatives. Gambling in Futures. The people and the press are pitehingin t-o“01d Hutch” tin' successful wheat gam bler and venting their vials of wrath on one man, while they should be attacking and denouncing the system of the whole crew of future speculations. Judge Roo ney is right when he says gamblers are not punished, and he might have gone further and ordered the future dealers all hauled up in this community. Every community is suffering from the same canker, and poor people are made to bear the burden in the high -prices which result from cornering the market in breadstuffs. The great commercial centres aie cursed with big dealers and small dealers, and all should be punished alike, The law should look after them and lawmakers should legislate so that the necessaries of life can be placed out of the reach of gambling deals. We agree with the Charleston News in its remarks about the latest instance of this kind, when it says; H. P. Hutchinson, the great Chicago gambler in wheat or “Old 1101011,'' as he is called by the tender-foot brokers who have attempted to beat him in the game of futures, has been denounced from one end of the land to the other as the most stupendous villain of the day. It is probable that he is every bit as vile as he lias been painted. It is certain that this corner in wheat will occasion much dis tress among the poor people, who, after all, will have to foot the bills and fill his pockets with gold. “Old Hutch” will make about #3,000,000 by his deal, and the bread winners and bread eaters of the country will have as a kind of sea soning for their frugal meals the reflec tion that they are helping to build up the fortunes of a most successful gam bler. “But why should ‘Old Hutch’ be more -severely denounced thau all the other gamblers who were in the game with him? He is no worse and no bettertha-i the brokers who operated on the other side of the market. He simply held the points, and called their hands when they could not show up. In fact, we do not know but ‘Old Hutch’ is the best man of the whole lot. Jack Dudahey, Nat Jones, (’barley Singer and Napoleon B. Ream, ‘the famous Big Four syndicate,’ were trying to accomplish ‘o ? d Hutch’s’ ruin, and he beat them fairly, as gambling goes, beat them squarely and overwhel mingly. The only thing that there is to regret about the wretched business is that so many innocent and hard working people will suffer by ‘Old Hutch’s’ corner. But, so far as the idea of criminality goes, he is not less clean and pure than the men who conspired against him. “So far as the interest of the people is concerned, the shame and outrage of the transaction do not rest primarily upon ‘Old Hutch,’ but upon the system of gambling in futures, which is winked at by law, and which can be cured only by stringent and specific legislation. It is the veriest nonsense to say that a man can sell what he does not have, or that his neighbor can buy from him what he does not own.” hucklen'g Arnica Salve.
