An account OF ms dally routine may

none OF his NRe IL wasted Indeed he
is left very niue 10 himself lie rises
generally about - clock III the morning,
aud breakfasts perhaps an hour later.
Shortly after breakfast he goes 10 the
Capitol where ne geherally remains UNI
til about one clock III the afternoon.
Returning, he receives ms friends and
attends to whatever oilloal business he
finds until the dinner hour Along in
the afternoon, about . or d o'clock, he
rides or drives out for his health, and to
this custom, mainly he attributes thaI
excellent health he enjoys. In the
evening again he tends to business and
receives bis callers, Ifany one is curl
ols to know what business he finds to
occupy so much Of his attention at this
season, he can be readily answered. |
There is enough, and to spare. for even
avery active man. Judges must be as
signed throughout the State in order TO |
keep the courts in notion applications
for pardons never cease the petitioners |
haunting the Governor cvctywhc.c; ape |

ADMINISTRATION of the State were two or
three times as much as the whole rou-
tine of Official duties During the leg

close two hundred and eighty bills
were left on his hands to be examined
and acted upon. during the thirty
days which closed in the fore part OF
June, the Governor says he had no
time even to read and scarcely
time to do more than glance hastily
over his letters. 1t is amusing to thmk
that man necessarily ensroSSed ny
public duties was supposed 10y many to
be manipulating politics IN every school
district thNln uDnIlt the country.
