active part he took in the deliberations.
Thrice nominated as candidate for Gov
ernor, he was defeated by the Wings in
1858, and by the Americans in 1884,
ny the aid of the last named party he was
elected, in 1866, by the Legislature Of
Massachusetts,, 10 fill the vacancy in the
United States Senate occasioned by the
Resignation Of Mr.. Everett, and has since
taken a prominent part in the political
questions of the day. His senatorial ca.
reer has met the best expectations and
warmest wishes Of large majority of the
people of Massachusetts, whose views
he represents. ;fs
In lS42, Mr.. Wilson was elected Mai.
of uniformed regiment of artillery ia
the Massachusetts Militia, which he af.
terward commanded. Elected Brigadier.
General in 1916, he for five years com.
manded his brigade at the encampments
kept up in that Commonwealth, with
marked ability, and is familliarly known
as General Wilson. He is also favor.
ite lecturer with the Lyceum organic
tins of the Northern States, and is proven.
bially ready to contribute his talents, time
or money, or all of them, for the rational
enjoyments of the public.
As a political orator, Mr.. Wilson has
few equals. His retentive memory and
quick intellect enable him to turn TO effec.
tive use statements well calculated 10 in.
cite the sectional pride of his hearers, 10
inspire them with con dence, and 10 in
vigorate and stimulate them to action.-
Although avowedly a rarty man. true 10
his political friends and to their principles.
we believe him to be 4 firm friend Of the
American Union, with an abiding con6.
dence in its permanency.
Personally Mr.. Wilson Is an athletic.
good looking gentleman. quick in his
movements, rapid In his conversation. and
of the Anglo-Saxon type. Married in
early life to lady Of amiable character
and domestic disposition, and blessed with
an intelligent son. he never appears to
such an advantage as at the social firesids.
OF unbending integrity, strictly temperate
habits, and generous disposition, he pos.
sesses the personal esteem of bitter poIi..
ical opponants, and the devoted affection
of host of friends. Harper's Weekly.
