WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-If one wants TO

woman to keep n secret let him come to
Washington and form the acquaintance Of
some of the ladies of the cabinet or sena-

secrets, but do keep them. and there are in
Washington number of women who can
keep their husbands political secrets bet

large majority of the prominent men OF
Washington, not only those who are here
now, but those who have ueen here in the
past, place implicit confidence in the dis
cretion of their wives as to the possession

President Cleveland is the first president
we have had since Grant who was not i'm the
habit of coniiding his secrets to his wife
Mrs. Cleveland cares very little about poll
tics, and the president does not encourage
her to think of such matters He takes the
old fashioned view that woman should
not bother her pretty head about parties
and public questions, and that she should
be content to rule in the domain Of the
home.

Harrison, like all men with keen percep-

woman's wit and intuition were often more
valuable in matters of statecraft than a
mans logic. He did not hesitate to talk
over with Mrs. Harrison a great many af-
fairs of state, and her advice was frequent

not confide state matters to his wife, be

White House. But this did not prevent
him seeking the counsel of a woman now

every regiment and battery that participated
in the battle on April and T. 1862 in the Army

Army of the Ohio, under Gen. Buell.. The COM
mttee will soon visit the old battlefield and
make survey of the field, and ascertain the
number of acres it contains, also the price per
acre. and make a report to the Congressional

The field contains about 1000 acres lying be-
tween Snake and Owl Creeks on the north,
Shiloh Creek on the west, and Locust Grove
