and unexpected that he was wholly at a loss 10

had done IN the matter, it was his duty. lie

of his ability. When he had taken his seat III

public works from Philadelphia 10 Lake Erie;
and he, with tears i'll their eyes, had been beseg-
ed day after day, by claimants, praying Tor their
DUE and showing, perhaps, the Sheriff S publlca-
ton of the sale ot their property.

the interest would induce a restoration of the
prosperity of the State, Tor it had already COM

taxes, now tina, they knew they were devoted TO a
definite and well defined object and he had no
