e. 1Iarrisr.s n1Sceeisd to Wnshineaon, and on hia wav was received with enthusiasm, G h0norsd with the highest marks of distinction that can be offered fo a citizen by republi- can people. Tn tho spring of 1914 lowing to some misunde between Secretary Armstrong and himself, Gen. Harrison rec signed his commission. Mir. Madison, who was not in Washington at the time, wrote to Gov. Shelby that z 1t would not have been ac- cepted if he had been in Washington."

 Immediately after this, Gen. Harrison re- tired to his farm at North Bend in Ohio, and turned his attention to agricultural pursuits, but was soon afterwards successively called by the people to represent them in the Con- gress of the United States, and in the Legisl lature of the State. In l624-5 he was elected to the Senate of the United States. In 1898, wasappointed Minister to Colombia, which station he held until he was recalled by Pres ident Jackson. He again retired to his farm and in 1884 on the almost unanimous peti- tion of the citizens of the County, he was ap- pointed prothonotary of the Court of Hanlil- ton County, which office he attends in per- son. Gen. Harrison has always been distin- guished by a generosity and liberality of feel ing, which has been exercised beyond what strict justice to himself and family should have permitted. With ample opportunities of amasSing immense wealth, he ever disdain- ed to profit by his public situation for private emolument- and after forty years devotion to his duties in the highest stations, both civil and military, he finds it necessary in the eve-, ming of his life, to exert his energies for the comfort of a large family. But the extreme temperance and simplicity of his habits have preserved those energies, both physical and mental, in almost youthful vigor.s

 Duty Of pGtriotism. .-Iet the sacred obliga- tiOns, which have devolved on this genera tion, and on us, sink deep into our hearts.-- Those are dropping from among us. who es- tablished our liberty and our government The great trust now descends to new hands. Let us apply ourselves to that which is pre- scented us, as our appropriate object. We can win no iaurels in war for independence. Earlier and worthier hands have gathered them all. Nor are there places for us by the side of Sol0n, and Alfred. and other founders U there remains a great duty of defence and preservation, and there is opon unto us no- ble pursuit, to which the spirit of the times strongly invite us. Our proper business is improvement. Letou age be the age of inn

 pavement, In a day of peace, let us ad-

 vance peace, and the works of peace. Let us develope the resources of our land, call forth it's powers, build up it's institutions, proff.ote all it's great interests, and see whether we al- so, in our day and generation, may not per- Let ms cultivate a true spirit of union and harmony. In pursuing the great object which our condition points out to us, let us ual feeling that these twenty four states are one country: Let our conceptions be enlarg- ed to the circle of our duties. Let us extend our ideas over the whole of the vast field in which, we are called to act. Let our object be, OUR COUNTRY, OUR WHOLE COUNTRY. AND NOTHING BUT OUR COUNTRY !! And by the blessing of God: may that country itself be come . vast and splendid monument, not of oppression and terror, but of wisdom, of peace and liberty, upon which the world may gaze with admiration forever.-- Webster. ,
