<p> [A newspaper reports that Colonel Lehmanowsky of Poland, purportedly a former
officer in Napoleon's army, delivers an "original, ingenious, and eloquent" sermon in the
Presbyterian Church in Vandalia. The report adds that Colonel Lehmanowsky "is to deliver a
series of lectures on the history of Napoleon Bonaparte." Lincoln was in Vandalia and may have
attended. <bibl default='NO'>
