ual, and frequently importuned upon
matters of purely private character,
and of which he can have no knowl-
edge, his position becomes annoying,
as it is trying and laborious. In ad-

tiles that surround the public men of
the present day-questions involving
the very life of the noblest and best
government upon earth, and the deter
mination Of which must shape the vast
future as we'll as the present-all show
conclusiyely that he who bears up un-
der these trials, and with steady and

cessfully discharges these responsible

Hon. w. D. McIcdoe.

The unanimous denomination of this
gentleman for Congress from this Dis
trict, by the Union Convention held
at Sparta on the 25th ult., was a fitting
tribute Of praise to a deserving public
servant. The unanimity with which
he is for 4 third time presented for a
position which he has we'll and ably
tilled, betokens, unmistakably, deter
mlnation upon the part of the people
Of his District to re-elect him by a
large majority.
During Mr.. McIndoe's COMPRESSION
n career, no man has been found in
public life more ready than he to serve
his constituents, or the most humble
of them, in any manner in his power
that could result in their welfare; no
man can point to a more honorable
record upon all the great questions OF
the day. Claiming no excellence as
a public speaker, he has consumed
none of the time of the House in un.
necessary debate that could be used
to better advantage to the public ser
vice. but he has worked early and
late and assiduously in the discharge
of his laborious and responsible du
ties, and has ever been found true t
the manifold trusts which his positio
imposes upon him. 1t has been here
tofore, "in the pining times OF peace,
no lille task for the Representative

like ours, with alike vast and varie
interests, to attend promptly to all tn
wants of his constituents: but his dr

linen of the genus Copperhead, ask
him if he was Douglas man. He
will probably go into lofty flight of
admiration for the character ard prin-

ask him if he believes, with Douglas,
that there can only be two parties in
