It cannot ha for the head of the nation that it goes out. I fact it can only be the uniting of th. great place with (he simplicity of his citizenship and the individuality of his kindbeartedness. His impres sive personality captivated the South, which no other man living could so far have accomplished un der the trying circumstances sur rounding us politically in this sec tion, We are to wait calmly and learn if his policy of uniting the sections and making the people ho- mogenious can ba carried out by another. glad to hear him preach again.
