TILDEN'S WAR RECORD.
WHAT PETER H. WATSON, LIN
COINS SECRETARY or WAR,
SAYS.
The Services of Mr.. Tilden in Money
in Credit and in Counsel.

Peter II. Watson, assistant secretary OF
war under Abraham Lincolo, delivered,
September %, at Asbtabula, o., speech
on Mr.. Tilden's war record. After pre-
missing that he appeared to defend Mr.
Tideu, recognized as one of the most
esumable citizens, as one Of the ablest and
most trusted lawyers and as Il scholar OF
exceptionally thorough and broad culture
in political science and administration, he
said:
When the war broke out, as many of
you know, | was residing in Washington
City. Two capital moves contemplated by
the rebels, to be made 10 March, 1861 i,
would never have been defeated but for
the patriotic efforts Of great aud good men
who had always been active members of
the Democratic party. Many Of these
men, who voluntarily rendered the highest
service TO the government, neither sought
reward or acknowledgement, their high sense
Of the duties of citizenship forbidding.
Yet most of these men have since been
hippantly denounced as traitors, or sym
pathizers with treason. by persons who
not enforced. Among these praiseworthy
men, whose meritorious actions came more
particularly under my notice, and who
have been specially outraged and defam ed
by charges of untaithfulness to their coun-
try, / will mention three of the most
eminet--Samuel j. Tiden, John w. Gar
ret aud Abram 5. Hewitt.
WHAT Mr. LINCOLN REJoICED OVER.
Assurances of loyalty were given to Mr..
Lincoln by leading Northern Democrats,
among whom was Mr.. Tilden. But, while
loyalty supporting the government, it was
not their purpose to abandon the organiza.
ton of the DemJcra party, but to main
tain il, and to contest all elections with the
Republicans, whose party measures, to
maintain party ascendancy, any good citi
zen might oppose or support, while it WIS
the highest duty of every citizen to uphold
the government in its measures to pu,
down the rebellion MIR lincoln, in more
OF sririt OF exultatiDn than was usua
with that great aud bagnanim0uS but sad
and melancholy man, remarked that he
now felt assured that 10 the great duty OF
dsleadiug the nation he would be sup
ported by substantially the unanimuu,
bayouei Of the whole people OF the nurth
without distinction OF party.
ALMOST THoU pERsUApEsr ME TO BE 4
DEMOCRAT.
Tie then playtuIly remarked that if III,
Democrats should continue To- buhavc a,
handsomely as they had begun, lie coult
not answer for il that he would not himsel
become as good Democrat as Mr. Stan
ton.
Mr.. Stanton went Into Office as secrela
ry OF war in January, 1862. Before an,
after this period Mr.. Tildeu was called t,
Washington to counsel with both the pres
ident and the secretary of war, and to tn
latter ut that time was he especially wei
come, because he urged earnestly the NOR
vigorous prosecution of the war as tn
most effective means OF bringing it to
speedy end, and so restricting It's uuayoid
able woes and enormous expenditures t.
the narrowest practicable compass.

IMPROVEMENTS.
a Gle.nce at the Northwestern Section of the
City

No portion Of Washington has been more
improved by substantial frst-class buildings
during the last few years than the northwest
ern portion of the city. Especially is this the
case in that part bounded by Fourteenth and
Twenty-second streets and and streets. In
this district is located the Stewart mansion,
the house of the English legation, the Sumner
school house and the Louise Home. The rep
resentatives Of two foreign Powers are now
making arrangements to erect buildings on
Connecticut avenue, in the vicinity of n street;
Commodore Stanley, United States navy, is
putting up mansion at the corner of Seven
teenth and n streets; Admiral Radford has
just completed a handsome residence on N
street, between Seventeenth street and Con-
necticut avenue; twelve new houses are soon
to be built on the south side of NJ street, be-
tween Seventeenth street and Connecticut ave-
Iue; Mr.. Redeem has nearly completed the
construction of two frst-class houses on n, =,
near Seventeenth street; ten handsome houses
have recently been completed on the north
side of De Sales street-a new street-between
Seventeenth street and Connecticut avenue;
the new convent building on Connecticut ave-
nue., extending from L nearly to De Sales
street, is well under way; q dozen other houses
will be built the present season in the same
vicinity; number of bricks are nearly COM
pleted on Seventeenth street, near Massachu-
setts avenue; also, seven on P street, between
Fifteenth and Seventeenth streets, and many
others which we cannot now call to mind.
The immediate effect of all this is that prop
erty in this section of the city has really in
creased in value since the panic of 1873, not
withstanding the dull times, and sales are
made every week to parties desiring to make
immediate improvements.
