TOMB GEN HARRIsoN-By the following
paragraph, copied from the Shelby (Ky.) News of
the 9th ult it will be seen that those with whom
the decision of the question properly rests, have
decided that the remains OF the great and good man
whose loss nation mourns, to find their per-
manent resting place no the bank of the Ohio riv.
or, at North Bend. However national OF cen-
trail feeling, mingled withrespect for the memory
Of the individual, might have favored different
disposition ofthese remains, and ind uced the wish
that they should repose in the national cemetery,
none can question the rights OF those who have
thus decided, or the fitness of the decision. To us
the spot designated the final resting place OF the
remains Of Gen. Harrison, seems peculiarly appro.
pirate.
We learn from Col Todd, that on his way to his
residence in this county last week, he, in perfor.
nance Of a sacred duty, called upon the venerable
Widow OF our lamented deceased President. Whilst
there, he invited by that lady consultation
with herself and her only remaining son, as TO the
ultimate depository Of the remains other distin.
guished and devoted husband THE great and good
President 1t determined, at this consultation
to remove the remains mediaely TO Norll, Bend
TO be deposited upon beautiful and natural mound
where the monument may be for several miles
up and down the Ohio river. There the
traveller of distant ages, will be refreshed by a
visit to the tomb of the WARRIOR who was nev YER
defeated; of tho patriot, who died poor; and of the
statesman who, from the proud ght OF President,
"feli like struck from its sphere, covered with
glory and ronown."
