Plots of Assassination.
The New York Times has discovered a wonderful plot for throwing Lincoln's car from the truck on the Harrisburg Railroad.--It asserts that "the list of the names of the conspirators presented a most astonishing array of persons high in Southern confidence, and some whose fame is not in this country alone.
Statesmen laid the plan, bankers endorsed it, and adventurers were to carry it into effect. " Of course there is not a word of truth in this.
It is not as probable as the story of the attempt to poison Mr. Buchanan at the National Hotel in Washington, on the eve of his inauguration.
It will be remembered that the President elect was made very sick by something which he ate or drank at that hotel, and that hundreds of other guests, of both sexes, suffered from the same cause, many of them dying and exhibiting all the internal evidences of poison.

Mayhap. Do I say so?

From Washington.
[special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Washington, Feb. 23, 1861.
News! Large and late news ! The first thing we heard this morning, after opening our eyes, was "Lincoln is here." No one seems to doubt it. He arrived at 6 o'clock A. M., having sneaked through Maryland in the night.
And this is the great man, "six feet four inches high," with "recent whiskers" and "a pretty chin; tremendously rough and tremendously honest and earnest;" who declared in Philadelphia National Rifles went through the manual there to the tap of the drum.
Neither of your crack companies in Richmond could have done it better.

--Mr. Lincoln in his speech at Peekskill, on his way from this city to New York, managed to work in the can't phrase of the day "or any other man" as follows:
"I will say in a single sentence, in regard to the difficulties that lie before me and our beloved country, that if I can only be generously and unanimously sustained, as the demonstrations I have witnessed indicate I shall be, I shall not fail; but without your sustaining hands I am sure Mr. Lincoln in his speech at Peekskill, on his way from this city to New York, managed to work in the can't phrase of the day "or any other man" as follows:
"I will say in a single sentence, in regard to the difficulties that lie before me and our beloved country, that if I can only be generously and unanimously sustained, as the demonstrations I have witnessed indicate I shall be, I shall not fail; but without your sustaining hands I am sure that neither I, nor any other man, can hope to surmount those difficulties."
