| 1t has been charged that Mr.. Krkwood
whs Nebraska Democrat in Ohio. His OPP
ponents in the Legislature, who were so fire.
quontly and pungently reminded OF their in
consistency and perverseness by Mr.. K, new
er saw fit to make any such insinuations
against his honesty and straig htforwardne
1t is one of the fabrcations Of the presen,
campaign; and may be regarded as a COM
pliment to Mr.. X, for it shows that, being
unable to find in his history anything dis
creditable, his opponents are compelled to
draw upon their imaginations for cause OF
hostility. The Iowa City Republican throt-
ties the false accusation at its very inception,
by the publication Of the following resolu-
tion, which, among others, was presented by
Mr.. X. to mass meeting at Mansfield, O.,
on the 18th February, 1854, and adopted by
that body:
Resolved, That in view of the foregoing
considerations, we are opposed to the repeal
Of the Missouri Compromise act, because it
would be violation Of q compromise DELHI
erately entered into for the settlement Of an
exciting and dangerous sectional oontrover-
sy because such repeal would tend TO de-
stroy faith and confidence in the other COM
promises touching the subject Of Slavery,
and to produce uneasiness and distrust in
the public mind /; because we conceive it to
be in violation of the wholesome and sound
doctrines announced by the conventions oil
1852 on the agitation Of the slavery ques.
ton; and because we believe that it's effect
would be to renew that agitation and agaif
to produce between different sections of oul
country, strife, confusion, bitterness and dis
cord"
Every sentiment of this resolution is true
and just. 1t embodies the true ground oil
opposition to the repeal of the Missouri
Compromise, and shows that the bare sug.
geston of the great wrong that has entailet
so much strife in the country, was denounced
by Mr.. X. He took the right ground at tn,
outstart, and every subsequent event ha.
strengthened him and every right minded
man in the conviction that that ground should
be maintained. Mr.. K. subsequently helped
to re-nominate and elect MIR. Lindsey to Con
gress, from the Mansfield District, becaus,
of bis opposition to the Nebraska Bill. De-

General Of Pennsylvania as early as 1911.
He was shortly afterward appointed Comp
troller of the Treasury. In 1913 he deliv-
cred an Grafton on the Fourth Of July, at
Washington, in the Hall OF the House Of
Representatives, in the presence of the Pres
iden., Cabinet and House OF Congress. In
1914 President Madison offered Mr.. Rush his
choice between the posts Of Secretary Of the
Treasury and Attorney General Of the Uni
ted States, and be accepted the latter. In
1916 he acted as Secretary Of State under
the Presidency of Monroe, for six months,
Mr.. Adams, then Minister to England, hav-
ing the appointment. When Mr.. Adams as
sumed the duties of Secretary Of State, Mr.
Rush was made Minister to England In
1875 Dir. Rush was recalled from England
to fill the post of Secretary of the Treasury
under Mr.. Adams. In 1885 be was one Of
the Commissioners who settled the boundar,
