Royalty.

--Lincoln's first levee took place on the night of the 24. A Northern dispatch says: --‘"There was an immense crowd long before the doors were opened, and hundreds were compelled to stand in the carriage way, between long files of soldiers, who, singular to lay, supplanted the police, and preserved order with the bayonet."’ Long Live Abraham I., King of the Yankees.
