Tribute of Respect.

AT meeting of the Young Men Of
Washington, held July 26, 1856, for the
purpose of paying the last sad tribute of
respect to the memory of our late friend
and associate, FRANK. j. ODELL, who de-
parted this life at Washington, July 18th,
vlrginius Block was called to the chair,
and l. ID. Simms appointed secretary.
The following gentlemen were then ap-
pointed committee by the chair to draft
and report resolutions expressive of the
sense of the meeting, viz: S. H. Harvey,
>. NJ. killgOre, T. w. English, B. F. Fall
and j. S. Britt. Whereupon, they re-
ported the following preamble and resolu-
tlons, which were unanimously adopted:
Whereas, Frank. j. Odell was one of
our most worthy and amiable citizens, hav-
ing by his morality, his industry, and
course of guarded conduct, endeared him
self to all who knew him, therefore be it
Resolced, That in the decease of Frank
j. Odell We have lost from our presence
one of '.Gods noblest works IAN honest
man, and we truly sympathize with his
distant parents, relatives and friends in
this sad bereavement, the wound of which
can only be felt by those who respected
and cherished him
ResOtred, That a copy of these resolu-
tlons be forwarded to his parents, in Man
chester, New Hampshire, as fit emblem
of respect we owe to their deceased son.
Resotred, That our respective journals,

Harry of the West.

He is full sixteen hands high and well proper
toned beautiful. golden dappled yellow, with
black LEGS and flowing black name and tail. and
was nine years old on the first day OF June last.
He was raised in Humphreys county, Western
District OF Tennessee. and has stood three years
in Drew county, III this State, and the past spring
season at his present stand. where his reputation
is firmly substantiated. His pedigree is probably
unsurpassed by that of any horse in this State,
and is rarely exceled anywhere. He was sired
by the welI-known and tavorite horse of TeEBes
see. Old Union, he by Williams Old Boie and
he BY the old imported Janus.
HARRY OF THE WEsr's dam was lib. she by
Dodsons old Bluster, he by the old gray Diomede;
THIS dam was Col. Totty's old Oscar mare.
This stock has produced more race and better
farm horses, than any other in Tennessee, OF
more durability and more action than that OF any
other stock.
This fine Horse will stand the ensuing fall
season at his own stables. in Prairie d dAnn-the
season commencing on the first of September,
at the moderate price of Five, Eight and Ten
Dollars All possible pains will be taken to
prevent accidents, but no accountability for any
that may occur. Harry will be found at home
at any time this summer.

The Man for the People.

Under this caption that sterling paper.
the n Y Express, thus speaks of Nlillard
Fillmore:
Mr.. Fillmore has at length reached his
home in Buffalo after being for a whole
week, uninterruptedly almost, the recipi-
ent of such honors as have but rarely, if
ever, been heaped upon public man in
this country. There has been nothing at
all to compare with it in late years, and
nothing that we can remember to surpass
it in years gone by. The spontaneous
manifestations of popular affection and es-
TEEN which greeted him at every step,
from the moment of his landing from the
steamship Atlantic, in the heart of this
mighty metropolis, to his arrival in Bufia-
10, altogether, constitute one of the noblest
tributes to the patriot and statesman in
the history of our country. 1t was no
idle holiday show The citizens who, by
thousands, turned out of their beds here
at midnight to welcome him back to his
native land, are not man-worshippers.-
The myriads who thronged his pathway
all along the line of the Hudson, and
crowded his line of march from the State
House at Albany to the shores of Lake
Erie, came out, not to see "a reed shaken
by the wind, nor yet "a man clothed in
soft ralment;" nor a victorious general
fresh from some sanguinary scene of hu
man slaughter, surrounded by all the vul-
gar glories of war; but a Citizen, Pa
triot, Statesman, whose hold ON the peo-
pies hearts is of higher, holier and
more enduring kind than any which the
worlds Caesars or Napoleons had it in
their power to boast Those enthusiastic
plaudits, ringing all the way from the Bay
of New York to the Falls of Old Niagara;
those warm grasps of the hand by men,
and women, and children, by young and
old, and rich and poor, have future as
well as present significance And the
meaning of it all is, the sublime conscious
ness that, amidst the roar of the breakers
at the South, and the shadows, clouds and
darkness rolling up in the North, threat
ening the destruction of the Ship of State,
there is at least one hand at the helm,
tried, true and steady, which, under Prov
idencc, will enable us to weather the storm
and reach haven of safety and peace
Only such conviction as this-the con-
viction that Fillmore is the Man for the
Times-could have evoked the almost un-
paralleled demonstrations of public regard
of which our columns to-day and for the
week past, have been the teeming record
