WASHlNGToN's FAMILY.
The English Ancestors of the Man wha
Whipped England.

The author of the book entitled 'aIothers OF EmL
nent Men" said that while collecting material for
her work she was many times forced to think that
eminent men had no mothers, the diniculty of hnd.
Ing out anything about them being so great In the
case OF Washingtons father, though know all
about his ancestry, know but little Of his char
acter Ills ancestry be traced back to the thir.
scarcely more than the date of his birth and death
What he was in nppeara nee, mind and character we
cannot learn. They were not close chroniclers In
that early day. The daily newspaper was unknown
and the writers OF biographies were few. And then
the father Of Washington died whtn the son who
made him an object of interest to Americans was
only II years old.
The Wilmingtonian., 1886-02-20

This modest stone the nrst monument ever
raised TO the memory OF Washington. In June lsl5
few days before the cornerstone of the Washing
ton monument at Baltimore was laid, Mr.. CustlS
Samuel Lewis nephew of Washington and captain
I'm BaylOr's regiment Of horse; William Grymes son
OF distinguished officer in the Lie Guards and the
captain Of "rhe Lady Of the Lake > brought the in
scribed tablet and deposited It with solemn cere
mony. They wrapped 1t in
The blessed flag! Sign OF our precious past
Triumphant present. and our future vast"
And bore It in their patriotic arms to its resting
place. With the bricks OF the old chimney that had
once formed the hearth In the home of Washingtons
infancy they constructeda rude pedestal upon which
they rcverently placed this the first monument to
the trst of PATRIOTS "commendng It to the respect
and protection OF the American people in general
and the citizens Of Westmorelaih county in par
ticulnr"

went further than the majority on eonsti-
I tutionai leaders, and was, beyond DOUBT,
I sincere: while, on the other hand, the
physical force men, seeing no is1r oppor-
I tunity to settle the question IN theH own
I way, were willing, for the ume AT least,
} to leave Il in the hands OF one VINO mad no
hard words 70 say against them ana VINO
meant wei, though not as they believe,
gone for enough.
His remark too, at a land league meet
ing in Galway some years ago that he
would never have taken OF his coat to
the work. i" had he not known there was
something more than a settlement Of the
land question behind il quieted the
Fenians; and his iudiciOus staying at
home from the big convention in Pniladel-
phia in 1SS2, although he bad promised to
come, when it was feared the dynamiters
might possibly force resolutions helped
engender kindly feelings toward him
among that section also.
Then the Roman Catholic hierarchy and
priests who are an-DOwerful, and slow TO
support Protestant leader, are as one
man in his favor. He concliated them
by never obtrudlng his religious views
into any Irish measure, and to his efforts
largely was due the establishment in
Dublin Of the Royal University, an edu-
cational concession TO the Roman CathO-
lies. In the beginning the priests we're
nearly all against him, while the people
were for him; for the Irish have ever had
an instructive liking tor a Protestant
who filings prejudice aside and casts his
lot with theirs. He had already Arch
bishop Croke; he has now the MetropOli-
tan Archbishop Walsh at his back who
refuses invitations from the ord Lieu
tenant 70 dine at the Castelar, indepen-
dence unknown in Ireland for genera
tons.
An incident which occurred during Mr..
ParnelPs imprisonment may be related as
showing that, though capable of sound
judgment in matters Of big concern, he
was sometimes at fault where smaller
things were involved The wardeus IN
Kilmaiuham Jail were being continually
changed lest they should get too intimate
with the suspects. One warden had been
specially brought from Spike Island
Convict establishment because of his
WeilknOwh harsbness to prisoners and
logged faithfulness to the authorities.
He was detailed on Mr.. ParnelPs cell.
Every man in the jail knew this fellow
couldn't be trusted. Now il was customary
to "tip" the warden with a shilling or
half crown, if a suspect wanted letter
smuggled out. Ofall wardens in the jail
whom should Mr., Parnell select but this
fellow to take out a letter. rendering him
at the same time half sovereign. But
the Spike Island man refused the bride
and forthwith reported the matter TO the
Governor. MIR. Parnell was punished by
being deprived of all correspondence and
sent to solitary confinement during an
entire week. There was not q prisoner
in the jail who was not astOnished at his
lack OF insightin reading this man.

FRIEND
MAKES CHILDBIRTH EASY.

The time has come at last
when the terrible agony incident
to this very critical period in a
woman's life can be avoided. A
distinguished physician, W hO

his life (lorty four years. in this
branch Of practice, left to child

legacy and llfe-saving appliance,
THE MOTHERS FRIEND"
and to-day there are thousands
of the best women in our land
who, having used this wonderful
remedy before confinement. rise
up and call his name blessed.
We receive letters from every
section of the country thanking
us for placing this preparation in
the reach OF suffering woman.
One party from North Carolina
writes US that abe would like TO
thank the proprletors on her
knees for bringing it to her no
tice, as in q previous conflne-
ment she had two doctors, and
they were compelled TO use chic
reform. Instruments, etc, and
she suffered almost death: but
this time she used MOTHERS
FRIEND" and her labor was
short, quick, and almost like
magic. Now, why should a wo-
man suffer when she can avoid it?
We can prove all we claim by
IigiR0 witnesses, and anyone in
terested can call, or have their
