Senator Peirsol, of Monroe, is re
sponsible for the following on Sen
ator Clay, which is too good to
keep: 1t seems that Peirsol never
met CLAW previous to the conven-
ing Of the Senate. He had learned
that the Audrain district had sent
q farmer to the Senate, and he
says he naturally expected 20 meet
an unsophlsticated granger with
hay seed in his hair. During the
discussion in the Senate he noticed
that Clay took i part, and was
specially adept and strong on ques-
tons Of order and parliamentary
procedure. The lawyer Senator
from Monroe was amazed at the
learning, the information and the
way the alleged farmer from Au-
drain handled the subtle questions
ofthe character mentioned, and the
more he thought about it the more
he was puzzled. He began inquir-
ing about Granger Clay and learn
ed that he had been Secretary OF
the Legation at St. Petersburg,
Russia, II candidate for Congress in
Mississippi, a member OF the
| Legislature OF Mississippi, the
acknowledged leader in the Con
gr~oss3Jnai Convention heldtwo and
four years ago in the bloody 9TH
district, an active campaign speak,
err, amuch talked Of candidate tol
both Congress and Governor, an@
to CAPT it all his classical education
was supplemented by q regular
course of law. Still it remains
fact that Senator Clay is really one
the largest practical farmers il
Missouri if not the largest. HI
farms 1900 acres near Sturgeon
and $500 acres in Mississippi
He is cultured, able and adroi.
and is capable of holding his owl
creditably wherever he may be.

Harrison's Habits.

A friend who knows General
Harrison and his family well says
that the General begins the day on
his knees. Just after breakfast
every morning, no matter what his
engagements are, he holds a morn
ing service in his library, first read
ing a chapter from the Bible, then
engages in prayer.
In the hurricane Of excitement
following the Chicago Convention
after his nomination the General
said to a friend and visitor at his
house that this had been a lifelong
custom with him to which he
would adhere no matter what might
be his lot in life.
It is an inspiring fact and one full
Of hope and promise that the for
tunes and destinies ofthe Republic
are largely committed to the
hands Of q man who begins his
