limited to instruction in reading, writing,
spelling, and the simplest branches Of arth-
metic. He never saw a grammar or geo.

apprenticed to learn the fuller's trade, at
which he served five years. In 1919 he
commenced the study of the law, with
retired lawyer, and during the winter
taught school. At the age of 90 he deliv
cred a Fourth of Juy Grafton. At q he
removed to Buffalo, the journey being made
mostly on foot. lie studied and labored until
in the spring of 1928 he was admitted as an
attorney. He then went to Aurora, where he
commenced the practice of law. In few
years he acquired large practice. In 1926
he married daughter of Rev. Lemuel Pow
ers In 1927 he was admitted as counsellor
of the Supreme court of the State. In 1880
he removed to Buffalo, and practised law un
til ls47, when he was elected comptroller Of
the State and retired from the profession.
Mr.. Fillmore's political life commenced in
1928, when he was elected representative to
the legislature by the anti-masonic party,
serving three successive terms. In 1882 he
was elected to Congress, serving one term
and was then re elected as a whig. He was
chosen again in 1888 and 1910, retiring in
March, 1913. In 1914 he was the candidate
for Vice President in the wing national con-
vention. In 1S47 Mr.. Fillmore was elected
comptroller of the State Of New York.
In 1913 he was nominated by the Wing Ma
tional Convention for the Vice Presidency,
with Gen. Zachary Taylor for President, and
was elected in the ensuing November. On
July 8, 1850 President Taylor died, and Mr..
Fillmore took the oath Of Office as President
July TO- He retired from the Presidency
March 4, 1858. Since then Mr.. Fillmore has
devoted himself to the study of general liter.
ature. In 1856 he made tour of New Eng
land, and then went to Europe. In 1856 he
accepted the nomination of the American par
ty as candidate for President, but Maryland
was the only State which cast her electoral
vote for him. In 1856 he was again married,
his first wife having died in 1854. Until his
death he resided in Buffalo.

Congress is not inclined to make the Gen.
tennial Exhibition an international affair.
In our circumstances, requiring the closest
economy financially, this is probably the
most prudent course to pursue. The vote
on Friday in the Senate refusing the three
million dollars appropriation asked for by
vote of thirty-two to seventeen ends the
international character proposed TO be
given to the exhibition. The friends of
the project hope however to obtain sufli-
cient aid to render it national exhibition
in keeping with the occasion. Public OPP
inion is not favorable 10 a lavish expendi-
ture at this time upon an enterprise which
might prove after all unsatisfactory and
unremunerative, like the Exposition held
