HON. m $. CREAmER.
Resolutions of the washington Bar ON
HIS Death

In the Court of Common Pleas on Mon
day the following resolutions of the
Washington bar on the death of one of
its members, the Hon. NJ. S. Creamer,
were reported by the committee appoint
ed at bar meeting previously held, and
were adopted and ordered to be entered
upon the records of the Court, and GER
titled copy to be presented to the family
of the deceased:
ReSOlUed, That in the death of Honora-
bic Michael S. Creamer, we recognize the
great loss of this Bar, of which he was
prominentmember; of thecOmmunity, of
which he was an honored citizen; and of
the State, of which he was faithful and
efficient legislator.
In his profession he was patient, cour-
teous, and to high degree honorable in
all his practice and relations.
He was self made-man, working his
way unaided, and by his own energy and
perseverance, to a place of influence and
prominence in calling so difficult, and
for the short time he had been in the field
of active practice he had by his learning,
industry and requirements, attained a
well deserved and highly honorable
standing and reputation at the Bar, and
notwithstanding his failing health main
the time of his death.
In his character as a citizen he was
genial and kind hearted, Jealous for
whatever he believed to be right, but
charitable and tolerant toward those who
differed with him, and by his manly,
straightforward course won the conf
denee and esteem of his fellow citizens.
He was modest and unassuming, but
when occasion required, fearless and de-
cisive, and the cause of right and the
public veal never called in vain for his
support.
As a legislator his ambition to well and
faithfully serve his constituents and pro-
mote the welfare of the State, kept him
at his post of duty at the sacrifice of his
health. and almost to the hour of his
death. His opinions and counsel were
often sought and highly esteemed, and
by his patient and excellent discharge of
duty he won the warmest sympathy and
confidence of his fellow members. His
brothers of the General Assembly of the
State, as well as of this Bar, who have
most intimately associated with him be-
came sincerely attached to him as a man
of large heart, clear head and great per-
sonal worth.
ReSoEued, That we tender to his family
and relations our sincere sympathy and
coincidence, in this their sad affiiction,
and that copy of these resolutions be
presented to the Court of Common Pleas
of Fayette county, at this the present
session, with request that the same be
entered on the journal of the court and
that duly certified copy thereof be de-
livered by the clerk to the family of our
departed brother.
Brief addresses in eulogy were deliv-
cred by Hon. NJ. Gardner, Col. II. B.
Maynard, Hon. NJ. J. Williams and Judge
Steele.

A Card.

Hearing that the pupils of the High
School were about to give two entertain
ments, for the purpose of obtaining means
to purchase scientific instruments which
they greatly need, feel impelled to give
to that laudable scheme all the encour-
agement can. In the teaching of science
Washington High School is the peer of
any High School thatI have visited in the
land, and will compare favorably with
many of the Colleges.
Time was when all the appliances of
the school were few books, maps, and
blackboards. Now the forces of the uni
verse are focused in the school room, and
nature is compelled to give up her secrets
to furnish food for the growing mind. To
do this, expensive apparatus is needed. !
hope the public will generously respond.
