A RARE AND UNIQUE RELIC.

very ancient document now IN pos
session of Col. G. A. Thornton, OF
this place. 1t purports to be
the original of the last will and
testament of Mrs. Mary Washing
ton. mother of the Father of his
country. 1t is dated May goth,
1880, more than one hundred and
four years ago. 1t has evidence of
extreme age, though the writing is
perfectly legible. A copy Of this
will was on record in the Clerks
Office Of Spottsylvania County,
Virginia, when testatrix died, but
that building with all its archives
was destroyed by fire many years
ago, hence this is believed to be
the only copy extant. 1t has been
handed down from generation to
generation to its present possessor,
lineal descendant of the testatrix.
Written as it is on both sides of a
single sheet it has been framed for
better preservation and also that it
may be more easily read. The
owner assures us it will be sent to
the great Worlds Exposition in
New Orleans.
In addition to "The Will" Col.
Thornton is the possessor of a piece
of wood in which the two collins of
Gen. Washington were encased.-
That in which the body was placed
was made of mahogany, and put
for better preservation into a lead
casket, and the whole encased in a
heavy pine box. The history of it
is this: Many years ago the re-
mains of Gen. Washington were
removed from their first resting
| place to a larger and more conve-
niently located vault. 1t was found
that this outer casing of the coffin
was too much decayed. So it was
cut into small pieces and distribu-
ted to the descendants of the fami-
ly, as far as possible. 1t is des-
tined to accompany "rhe VIII" to
the Exposition.
The electoral votes of Ohio are
not essential to the election of
Cleveland and Hendricks: nor have
they been given to Democratic can
didates for President and Vice
President since 1852. That year
there was a political tornado in the
land, which swept everything before
it in all the States save Vermont,
Massachusetts,, Kentucky and Ten
nessee. The Boston Herald, in
this brief paragraph, correctly sets
forth the present outlook in Ohio:
''The information impartially gath
cred in the chief cities of Ohio, and
published in the Sunday Herald,
presented as clear an idea as can be
formed at this time of the political
situation in that State, The Re-
publicans were seriously alarmed at
the prospects fortnight ago, and
the visit of Mr.. Blaine, as part of
the plan for an extraordinary effort
during the remainder of the canvass,
shows that they are by no means
satisfied with the outlook. The
Democrats are slow in getting to
work, and rely too much on last
