The early settlers Of Iowa were near
u al more or les acquainted with this
eentlsnsu. To them be was hseter
known = General Morgan. The Bur-
lisgton Argss announced his death on
the 9th inst, and from that paper We
condsnss some scraps OF his history
He was born in Ohio in 1918, and in
early life entered the political arena; st
m early age became editor Of the Hill.
burgh Gosstse in 1885 edited . cam.
paigu paper at Colombus-tbe Aag;.
csan. He was . political writer Of ex-
trsordioary ability.
In the Fall Of 1888, acting under the
advice Of the late Gov. Lucas, he came
70 Iowa aud became % active partici-
pant 10 the politics and local affairs Of
the Territory. In 1910 he was sent to
Washington Is . bearer of dispatcbe' 10
relation to the Missouri boundary ques-
ton. Upon his return, be- became the
editor of the |owo 4sdse Gazette, sue.
coeeding 10 the editorial chair Governor
CLARK. 10 which position be sustained
tho expectation Of bic political friends,
and preserved the character Of bis sheet
- one of the leading papers in the
West.
In 1912 be assisted 10 establishing the
Missou.i Reporter at st. Louis then
studied Law at the same place under
Judge Buckner, and was admitted to
practice. Returning to Iowa be was
elected to the Territorial Legislature
was Speaker Of the House; was .
Captain in the Mexican war. In l649
be returned to Burlington, prscticed law
with Judge Hall. and in 1920 estab'ish-
ed the Telegraph which be published
five years. He WAS afterwards connec.
ted with the Burlington Gazette, and
still later published campaign paper
called the Var Eagle. As lawyer he
was unsuccessful; ~ IN editor be had
but few super'ors.
In his department and conduct be
was simple and unaffected, yet urbane
and dignified. He was possessed Of .
keen sense of honor, and would have
suffered biz right band to wither before
he would have committed 90 impropri-
ETY., or stopped to anything ANAL or dis
honorable. He seemed to have inherit
ed pride, which, II it sometimes was
prejudicial 10 bis own interests, it yet
preserved for him q conscientious self
esteem under al temptations. He was
of a kind disposition, afectionate to bis
family, and generous and free-hearted
to his acquaintance.
In late years be became somewhat
unapproachable, except to his particular
friends, and appeared DESTROYS Of not
making acquaintance. Consequently
very few Of those, by whom he vas i'm.
medistely surrounded, really knew or
understood him. Bnt it may be said Of
him that although he had not made az
many friends as others, he never lost
one.
He died on the 9Th of October, ir the
torty.ninth year o! bis age, after brief
illness, leaving = widow and four chill,
dren to mourn bis loss.

The other day the New York Her.
aid came out with an article in which
It desired M. Seymour, the Democratic
candidate, to withdraw from for the
canvass, and give Wordsworth, tho Re-
publican nominee, . clear track to the
Gubernatorial chair.
A day or two later the Herald comes
before the people With lugubrious re-
quest that Mr.. Seymour and Mr.. Wads-
worth both withdraw from the field, and
that another person-Gen. Dix-be
nominated BY both parties. What next
will the herald suggest?
The Democracy OF New York have
NO inclination, we dare say, OF abandon.

Of their ticket one Of the most loy d,
