The subject of
advertising came up. Dennison had made inquiry and ascertained that the
Intelligencer had the largest circulation. Stanton said President Lincoln had
ordered him to publish in the Chronicle. There was evidently a wish to get
along without action. I advised that there should be uniformity in the
Departments as to the papers employed. The President said certainly it was best
there should be general accord.
