DR.. Richard S. Storrs, the president
of the American Historical society,
chose for the subject of a recent adj
dress, THE Contributions Made by
Plain, Uncelebrated Men to the Devel-

names he mentioned were Eleazar
Wheelock, Manasseh Cutler and Mar
Gus Whitman. The first was a poor
New England country minister, but his
efforts founded Dartmouth college,
where Daniel Webster, Rufus Choate,
Salmon p. Chase and George Ticknor
were educated. Manasseh Cutler was
also a country minister, but to him
was due the fact that slavery never set
foot upon the soil Of Ohio, Indiana, Hi
nois, Michigan and Wisconsin. And
Marcus Whitman was an humble mis-
sionary who gave his life for the In
dams, and to them-for they killed
him; but because Of Marcus Whitman.
