Old Abe has his intermediate legs in perfect readiness to run. He has not passed a night in the White House for two weeks, but goes into the barracks to sleep with his armed hirelings all around him. He does not so much as take off his boots, that he may be ready to run at a second's warning.--Petersburg (Va.) Express, May 4.
