projected route from Fort Benton to Fort Walla

''That such road should be made in develop

future consideration. Truth and justice to emf
grant forces me tell you that the road is not there

Fort Benton en- route TO Walla Walla Valley, the

THh HoN. ELIJAH WARD.-This gentleman,
a representative in the last Congress from the
city of New York, left Washington to-day on
his return to his own home, business of import
ance having detained him among us until this
time. No other gentleman in serving the
country in Congress for a single term has made
either more enviable reputation as a legisla-
tive statesman, or more and warmer friends
among those identified with Washington as
business citizens not dependent on the Govern
ment. This is infinitely to his credit, as the
confidence of such men is not lightly given,
and its possession involves proof that he who
achieves it is a sterling man. Few others arc
so good judges of the intrinsic character of
public men; for none others are so familiar
with them of all parties, and from every Sec
ton of the United States. No other reprcsen-
tatiyo Of his length of service in Congress has
done more in the way of making his mark on
the future of the country than Mr.. Ward
Thus, his speeches were all upon subjects Of
substantial public interest, and were Icgiti-
mately delivered. That is, upon questions i'm
mcdiately before Congress involving points of
moment to the country's future; and all of
which were distinguished by condensation
of much solid information, and by terSeness of
reasoning from that information, carrying con-
viction to the mind of the auditor Had the
last House been entirely composed of gentle
men of equal calibre, there would have been
little complaint against its failure to transact
business in a business way. III
