[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.
