State ROUSE WHERE CON-
yENTIoN WAS HELD.
pers. Hamilton put into shape most of the
farewell address, from the suggestions of
Washington. Everett did the same thing
in the Hulsmann letter at the request of
Webster Both, however, finally wrote out
these productions themselves. retaining the
larger part thus furnished them. Indeed,
these papers were well considered and re-
vised by their actual authors. Washington
gave Hamilton an address drawn by Madi
son at his request and accompanied it with
other suggestions that he wished the ad
dress to embrace, and, with few excep
tons, these were contained in it. Webster
used the draft of Everett and that of the
Assistant Secretary OF State, Mr.. Hunter,
IS the basis of that important letter. But
Washington writings show that he took
the larger part in the framing of the fare
well address, if style is the test. He GER
tainly had a more dIffuse style than Ramil-
ton, and this address is not just like any
thing we find in Hamilton's writings.
But Washington Is to be studied for his
great personal qualities and manhood. The
demands of his country took him away from
sedentary pursuits and made him what he
was, a man of action. He liberated thir-
teen colonies and made them nation.
Vested with despotic power, he returned it
to the people. He chose republic instead
of imperial and personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
He held Office so long as the interests of his
country demanded, but no longer. His ad-
ministration was pure and elevated, no
corruption ever found place under his rule;
he sank not to the groveling level of parti-
san politics, but represented party and
faction by the majesty and weight of his
character. His appointments were of hon
est and able men, and this example is not

one side OF the Aleghanles, and which low
extends from ocean to ocean, comprising
twenty times that population, and still in
creasing with rapidity unknown to civil
lied states. A country known to the world
as the land of Washin gton.
Washington made, so far as his time per-
mitted, such studies as became his position,
and acquired a correct and perspicuous
style which is seen in all of his writings
and correspondence. He wisely accepted
aid in drafting his most important state pa

lost to the Republic, though degeneracy has
reached it
He taught US love of liberty and country.
He showed his respect for man and free
government. He taught by the wisdom of
his action rather than by any set theories.
He laid down in his farewell address those
sound maXlmS that we enter into no en-
tangling alliances with foreign nations;
that We repress party rage and sectional
feeling, and, above ali, that we cherish the
union of these States, as the palladium of
our liberties, and our only hope.

dispatches which he refused to deliver to
any but General Washington in person.
The President excused himself and went
out to see the officer. He returned IN q
short time, made apology for his absence,
but no allusion to the cause of it. Every
thing went on as usual; during the evening
the General was kindly courteous to every
guest His hours were early, and by ten
o'clock all the company were gone and he
was alone with Colonel Lear.
He sat down by the fire; to this moment
there had been no change in his manner
since his interruption at table. Now he was
moved by emotion. He broke out suddenly:
s.It's all over-St. Glars defeated routed !;
the officers nearly all killed, the men
slaughtered-and surprise into the bar
gain
Then he paused; but MS wrath again
burst forth with terrible vehemence:
Yes Here, on this very spot, took leave
of him. BelOore of a surprise, SAID, and l
repeated, Berdre of q surpriSe-you know
how the Indians fight US. He went off with
that as my last solemn warning And yet,
to suffer that army to lie cut to pieces by a
surprised o God God he's worse than a
murderer. How can he answer TO his coun-
try, the widows and orphans-the curse of
Heaven!"
This torrent came out in tones appalling,
his frame shook as he threw up his hands
and hurled imprecations upon st. Clair.
Then he was silent, and at length he said,
in quiet voice: ''This must not go beyond
this room General st. Clair shall have
justice; will receive him without displeas-
ure and hear him without prejudice; he
shall have justice" And no sign of the pas
sion-storm did he ever again show. St.
Clair was e1cuipated and Washington re-
ceived him again into full confidence.
When we survey the early life of George
Washington we could hardly expect so con-
summate character to arise from his

AND WINS FROM HAMILTON,
Two Recalcitrant Players Apologize
aud Promise TODD RetterRnd Arc
Taken Back,,,other Trl.state
League Games Played,

Yesterday was one Of the Wheeling
ball clubs heavy batting days, and the
result was that in the game with tho
Hamilton club at Island park the home
team was victorious by q score Of IL to5,
II was a very interesting game, being
made SO by reason OF the lively stick
work OF the home team and the perfect
and close fielding game put up by the
visitors, but there were only a few pres
ent to enjoy it, the attendance being
shamefully small, The same clubs will
play together again this afternoon and
the management hopes, the day being
Saturday, that there will be q paying
crowd present,
Wheeling had for its battery yester-
day Kennedy and Bowman, the two
players who, suffering from the meg
d~lOcephdltI, first lushed up on beer and
then became mptlnous and were heavily
fined and suspended, 1t seems that
after perusing the published accounts OF
their proceedings they came to the con-
clusion that they were playing a losing
game and would better lose no time IN
squaring themselves as much as posi-
BILE with the powers that be. They ac'
cordingly had an interview with Presi.
dent Howell and were finally received
back into the fold. They promised to
play good ball and obey orders, and the
suspensions and o portion OF the fines
were removed and they were put to
work. The game they played yesterday
was all that could be asked, and II they
are sensible they will keep II up.
There was a new umpire in the field
yesterday and he was q welcome relief
alter Bartlett and Butler. His name Is
Barrett and he Is said to hail from Bel.
lalre. He has a loud voice and he uses
1t promptly in giving decisions, not
waiting for the audience to suggest what
the decision should be as did his two
predecessors, He was really too quick
in giving his decision in one instance
yesterday, giving 1t before the play was
completed and which terminated In a
way Just opposite to his decision, but
having given II he would not change 1t
and Wheeling lost two runs thereby.
The manner In which Barrett calls
down a playerinclined to kick is so re.
ireshing however, that what few failings
he has can be readily overlooked.
Heretofore Browner has been a hard
man for the Wheeling club to gauge,
but yesterday they knocked him around
in every direction. In eight innings he
was sized up for nineteen hits with a
total Of twenty.nine bases, and all OF
Wheeling's runs were earned. Drowner,
in addition to being hit hard, was un.
usually wild and gave five men bases on
balls. Nelson, who w%illprobably pitch
for Hamilton to-day, took a turn in the
box in the ninth inning. There Is but
little to DO said Of the game aside from
the features already mentioned, The
four runs made by the visitors In the
eighth are to BIO charged to Miller, who
made two very bad errors In succession.

The shsIIowest Natural Gas
We'll in the Land,
STRUCK YESTERDAY IN OHIO.
Not Far From Rellalre,,-NIen Borlpg
for Water on Wegee Creek Strike
Gas Mt a Depth OF Only FIry
FeCt-.A Hush to Sec 1t.

The shallOwest we'll in existence, that
produces natural gas, was drought i'm
accidentally yesterday by a gang Of
steam well drlllen who were boring for
water on the farm of Andrew Brown, on
Wegee creek, about seven miles from
Bellaire by the roads, and much nearer
in C bee line, The drill was just down
Atty feet, aud was working in a peculiar
ly hard rock, when a steady and pretty
free flow Of natural gas was struck, The
drill was lifted, and the gus leaped out
with a loud rushing noise,
The gas was lighted and made a BLAZE
two.thirds the height OF a two.story
house that stands near, The report Of
the strike naturally caused q decided
sensation, aud there was a big rush OF
neighbour, and even people from Bellaire,
TO see the we'll, It Is possible that II the
drill had been kept at work until the
bit was further in the sand, there would
have been a still larger flow. Even as Il
is, the strike is interesting and sugges'
tive, and will cause much speculation.

FLINT GLASS WORKERS.
Yesterdays Session of Their
Convention at BeIIaire,
NO OPPOSITION TO MR., SMITH
For President ortO Any Other Officer
for Re'electioH-The Work will
take Several Days TO Finish,
That Chippewa Lake Trip.

The sessions Of the American Flint
Glass Workers convention at Bellalre
were resumed yesterday morning shortly
after s o'clock, although the delegates
were pretty tired as the result OF their
late arrival from Chippewa yesterday
morning,
The E~ngravers' committee reported
early in the session. Most of the fore
noon was taken up with a discussion OF
this report, although it is practically the
same rs last year, Other reports on
moves and scale were made in the alter
noon, and their consideration occupied
the time until time to adjourn,
At least three days more, 1t Is now
said, the convention will last, as they
have q greatL deal Of unfinished business
yet.
The talk about opposition to the re-
election OF President William j. Smith
will not materiallZe, +, b, Archer,
whose name has been mentioned In this
CondeCtion, was seen, and he declares
no will not allow the use OF his name,
and that he is an earnest friend of Mr.;
Smith. There is no question about his
reelection, and It will be wisdom on the
port OF the convention to re.oleCt both
Of its head officers unanimously, This
Is what will DO done,
Night sessions will be resorted TO to
rush tho business through. Many Of
the delegates arc very tired OF so long u
s%ojourn away from home, pleasant as II
is made for them by the people OF
Bellaire.
Some OF the delegates to the Conyen.
ton are selling tickets for q lady's fine
gold watch, TO DO Glanced of July Goth,
for the purpose Of raiaing money TO Sc
cure q new trial for Hugh McManus, a
former Bellnire boy, who was recently
convicted OF m%anslaughter at Wellsburg,
for the killing Of Henry Bresock,
The leading members hope to get mat
tiers all adjusted without the difficulties
which threatened the proceedings q day
or two ago. 1t Is certain that some
changes are being made insome branches
which amount to a practical advance.
The list and wages in tho shade branch
have been settled on last years basis,
and no changes have been made in the
pressed branch.
