service to perform and the dangers encountered.
and fatiguing and laboriols duties performed by
our Chief Magistrate in those days Of darkness aud
peril, would stagger the nerves of some Of the
governors OF these later times. In the Councils
Of the Nation in the legislature Of our state-in
short, IN almost every capacity in which the pco
pie could employ him, he has served our state.
with an industry and uprIgh! fidelity that have
always associated the name of the "Oli Ranger

mindedness, liberaiy and uubeudng political in.
tegri;y Of those men of the earlier times If our
state, that she is indebted for that democratic
impulse which has ever-ince kept her firm in the
democratic ranks,
In view Of his long and honorable career, which
has been marked By so great ability and fidelity
to the true interests of the people and his party
we think some mark of disirct-n is due him on
the part Of the representatives of the people, and
that i. can in no way be more appropriately
shown than by eleeting him SPEAKER Of the
