years and more ago, for the Bold of his
tory, In so far as it relates to the Ameri'
can revolution and the men who were
representative in its accomplishment; has
been well explored and voluminously ex
pounded by hundreds ot men equal to the
task. Nor ia there a school child of 1U
years in sll this country, who has not
written his essay on these same men and
events, so that their history is in-burued
in the minds of sll Americans, let this
is one ot the hopeful signs of the. dispo
sition of a great people towards those
who called its nation into existence. And
ot the leader ot all those courageous
men, the one who before all others car
ried to an astonishing and successful
achievement the herculean labors of
bringing victorious a handful ot ragged
and untrsined soldiers through the dark
ness of a struggle with one of the most
powerful countries on earth, certainly
nothing now needs be said.
As a young man, ashiugton was prob
ably bo less flippant and worldly than
hundreds of others in the colonies. His
manners, which hsve been thought extra-
ordinary in their courtliness, were prob
ably not the slightest bit more so tbsn
those of the majority ot bis acquaint
ances. He was not free from the fsults
of men of his time. He was accustomed
to methodical exactnesa from his expert
ence on his mother's plantation and to
her be no doubt owed many of the traits
which afterwards stood him In such good
stead. From his school teachers, II
liam Hobby, who was also the church
sexton, and Thomas Williams, he learn
ed to read and to write as well as to un
derstand the art of computation. The
latter of the two also gave him the rudi
ments of surveying which served as much
as any other oue thing to develop him in
to the general ot the Americau forces.
For it was on account ot his knowledge
of this science tbst be spent three ot
his years, of early manhood in the wilds
of the forests, running lines, determin
ing levels, fixing boundaries. His wages
at this time were sulHcieot to enable him
to purchase large pieces of that trackless
wilderness bordering on streams, which
were afterwards of great Talue, thus de
veloping bis insight and shrewdness as s
business man. But the iesons that he
learned from that rugged nature in the
solitary hours, were vriceless, snd the
constitution that was hardened by his
life in the woods enabled him in after
years to endure untolu strains of expos
ure and suffering, to rescue Braddock af
ter that general'a defeat by the French,
to conceive the crossing of the Delaware
on that bleak and cheerless December
night, to nndergo Valley Forge. and to
emerge from them all, the modest, self-
contained, reserved gentleman, it was
because of bis knowledge of the ways of
the forest that be was sent on that
seemingly needless errand to warn the
French off English territory in the win
ter of 1753-54, on which he quitted him
self well snd learned his first lessons in
practical warfare. The next year be
was chosen to go with Braddock on his
ill-fated expedition against the French.
Here if was that Washington learned for
the first time, that Americans were of
just aa good stuff as Englishmen, that
tbey could fight just as bravely as the
seasoned veterans of the mother country.
For it was through the efforts of the
bush-whacking" Virginians that Brad-
dock's force escaped entire destruction.
The colonists knew better than did Brad
dock that the evolutions of the parade
ground were of no avail in the sort of
warfare in which they were at that time
engaged. The physical strain undergone
by Washington at this time was extra
ordinary. From the ninth to the six
teenth ot that July, he bad little sleep,
walking and riding, sometimes all night
long through the forest, and succeeding
in bringing up some support for Brad-
dock's retreating army. He was then
25 yeara old. In the course of that one
expedition he had seen enough to give
him an unconquerable faith in the valor
and abilitiea of bis fellow colonists. This
fsith, it may have been, that so upheld
him through tne dark hours of defeat and
intrigue, when bis army well nigb per
ished from lack of food and clothing.
ashington had no idea, even when the
colonies were being greatly roused over
the injustice of their treatment by Eng
land, that the end would be war. He
did not desire war. And it waa only when
there was no other way to decide the
momentoua question of principle that he
set bis heart on hostilities. The cour
age of the man in accepting the position
of commander-in-chief which was offered
to him by the assembly was sublime.
The mother country could send hundreds
of thousands of trsined soldiers sgainst
tbe colonists; her ships ruled the sess.
un tne otner nand, tne colonists were a
few thousands, undisciplined in any war
fare except that against the Indians;
their resources were comparatively insig
nificant. It seems ss if there could hare
been but one outcome. But Washington
modestly undertook the task, refusing
nrst any money remuuneration for tbe
services he might render. And then bis
sagacity as a commander began to display
nseit. quietly did be collect stores and
ammunition and prepare for the struggle.
The retreats which be managed in the
following years were almost aa inspiring
as the victories be planned. Ilia must be
a waiting game to a great extent, and
how well be played it history tells. He
compelled England to recognize the trou
ble as more than a mere insurrection
and secured thus the rights of civilized
warfare.
How great the odds were icainst (Jen.
Washington can never be rightly esti
mated. Time and again was bis army
on the point of dissolving away. There
were many true hearts In the Congress:
but there were many, also, who still lean
ed a little towards England, fearing that
the new order of things would never be
successful. There was only half-heart
ed aunnort for the commander-in-chief.
Jealousv lnsulred officers to scheme
againat him. Money was often acarce
and sometimes not to be had. Ilia men
were sometimes without food, barefoot
ed, and half clothed. Through all these
trying years Gen. Washington had to
rely mslnly on himself. His volume of
correspondence wss enormous. Thousauds
of letters did he write, urging Congress,
the governors, the Influential men of tbe
colonies to tske this or that step, to
raise men or money, to help on the work.
He was the revolution. Almost always
he had perfect control of his temper,
which was by no means mild, and over
bis pssslons snd his positive, aggressive
spirit. But sometimes tbe overwhelming
Injustice ot his treatment by Congress
must have been a sore temntstion to
him. And when he watched the Intrepid
Hamilton dash on to victory in the re
doubts st Yorktown he must have felt
the weight of the heavy burden he was
bearing rise from his great heart so that
It beat the faster, for he knew that
should Cornwallia surrender the war
would probably result victoriously for tbe
American arms.
The same quiet, firm, far-seeing charac
ter led him through the yeara of his life
after he had laid down his sword. When
he stepped out ot the position of commander-in-chief
of the victorious army,
asking no reward, aud quietly returned
to the privacy of his own home, he fore
shadowed the character ot the nation he
had so largely helped to make. It should
le a nation ot itself, not dependent on
England or any other country nuder the
glolie tor its customs or Its policy. It
was to embody principles hitherto un
heard ot in the annals ot history. It was
even In the distant future to take upon
itself the yoke ot a burdened and op-
ot tbe most Interesting portions ot tbe
colonial resldouce ot the Orat President.
Washington's last words spoken to Dr.
Craik were: "1 am just goiug. Hsve me
decently burled aud do not let my body
be put luto the vault In lens thsu three
dais after I am dead."

NEWS TRAVELED SLOWLY.
WashinKton Wasin the Tomb Two Days
Before New York Knew It.
nad George Washington lived and died
at tbe close of the present century in
stead of tbe last his death would have
been known at all four corners of tbe
globe inside two or three hours, whereas
it was not known that be bad passed
away for several days afterward. Even
Philadelphia, the old capital of tbe
United States, where the Sixth Congress
had just assembled, it waa not known
that Washington was dead until Dec. 10
two days sfterwsrd.
News traveled slowly In those days
csble, telegraph, telephone and postal fa
cilities were an unknown quantity, and
it took days and weeks to transmit infor
mation then, where seconds and minutes
figure now in this rapid age of invention
and Improvement.
The Alexandria Times was the first
newspaper to announce Washington's
death, printing on Monday, Dec. 10, a
single paragraph obituary, thus: "if is
our painful duty first to announce to our
country and to the world the death of
Gen. George Washington. This mourn
ful event occurred last Saturday evening
about 11 o'clock. On tbe previous nigbt
he wss attacked with a violent inflamma
tory affliction in his throat, which in less
than twenty-four hours put s period to
bis life."
Tbe New York pspers did not get the
news of Wssbington's death nntil Dec.
It), and it was four days later when tbe
Boston papers published their first in
formation. President Adams issued a
proclamation advising all citizens to wear
crape on the left srm for thirty days and
setting apart Feb. 22, Washington's
birthday, as s day when special services
in honor of Washington should be held.
New York paid its tribute to tbe de
parted President on Dec. 31. No carts,
carriages or horseback riders were allow
ed in the streets through which the fun-
ral procession psssed on the way to St.
Paul s Church, where Gov. Morris deliv
ered the funeral oration and Bishop Sam
uel I'rovost conducted tbe religious services.

An old soldier was boasting of his
experience during the civil war, when
he was asked:
"How many rebs did yon kill during
the war?"
"How many did I kill? How many
did I kill?" repeated the old veteran.
"Well, I don't know exactly how
many, but I killed as many of them as
they did of me." Ohio Btate Journal.

Eugi-ue Koliert, In the Itevue Cure-
tii'iinc, the leading French religious
monthly, has an excellent article on ths
life and character of the great American

France as is Franklin, but whose life
contains cnuny lessons for the French.
Tbe tales he tells of Washington during
tbe war snd of tbe simple-nature that re
fused a higher office than that of tbe
'resident must seem astounding to his
readers. M. Itobert says that two grand
sentiments were the soul of Washing-ton's
life, an ardent love for the fatherland,
to which he sacrificed all, and his invaria
ble fidelity to duty, in which be was un
influenced by considerations of friendship
or by the fear of enemies. The secret
of bis character is found iu faith, for be
bad fuitli In bis csuse, bis people, their
future, snd in God. Tbat gave biin a
