and resigned that position TO become
Superintendent of Indian Affairs. which
place he held till tho close of Duclan-
ans term. lie Democratic candi-
date for Presidential EIector in 1868
since which time he has been residing
with two sons on his farm. Mr.. Henley
was nh effective stump speaker, and was
commonly called"rhe War-horse OF the
Democracy" He was q jealous and
thorough partisan, but We do not re-
member that his political enemies ever
accused him of c%nrrptiun.
If lie had personal enemies he had few,
for his were pleasant and he
knew how to make friends among his
Opponents. His departure makes n Sc
rious brcnk in the line of the prominent
pioneer politirinns. OF those who had
Il State reputation i'll 1919. none now
remain save JOHN b Weller. who is
not in the State, and Gwin aud Burnett,
who have retired, or we suppose they
have retired. from the field of politics.
Colonel Henley's body will he brought
TO this city for interment, and will
doubtless he followed to the tomb by n
lurge..concourse of citizens.
