Incident Typical
of WashinRton's Life

A s.ory illustrative of the Arm and
determined character Of Washington is
told in the following description Of af-
fairs during the frontier warfare:
THE labors and dangers of the field
were not the only troubles with which
Col. Washington at this time had to
contend. BY an ill-timed pars1mony,
the pay of the officers was reduced so
low as to create m and discOn-
tent throughout the camp. Complaints
grew loud and vehement, accompanied
with threats to resign and leave the
army to its fate. Under this pressure
the character Of Washington shone
with the same purity and lustre that
often distinguished It afterwards or
similar trying occasions. In his letters
to the governor he assumed = firm and
manly tone, demanded for himself and
his associates an allowance equal to
that received by the kings troops, and
deprecated the idea OF being placed
upon q footing. which should imply an
inferiority In rank. or in the value Of
their services.
while he took this high stand in
defending the just claims Of tho on
csrs. he endeavored to calm their feel
ings and reconcile them to their con-
dition by appeals to their honor and
the obligations Of duty. 4 have COM

Gratitude of
CONGRESS Shown

When Washington returned to New
burg, at the close of tho revolution,
he found q letter from the president Of
Congress, asking his attendance on
that assembly, then in session at
Princeton. The object Of this request
was to consult him on the arrange
ments for peace. and other public con-
Germs. While he was making prepara-
tons to leave camp Congress conferred
on him new honors. 1t was voted
unanimously that an equestrian statue
of General Washington should DO
erected at the place where the resi-
dence Of Congress should be estab-
lished, and that it should be executed
by the best artist in Europe. under the
superintendent OF the minister of the
United States at tho Court Of YER
sailles.

II Die Hard, but
I Am Not Afraid"

After Washington's retirement from
the Presidency, his health was remark
ably good; and, although age had not
come without its inirmities, yet he
was able to endure fatigue and make
exertions OF the body and mind with
scarcely less ease and activity than he
had done in the prime of his strength.
On the 18th Of December, 1899. he
spent several hours on horseback. rid

tons to his managers. He returned
late in the afternoon, wet and chilled
with the rain and sleet, to which he
had been exposed while riding home.

Deafnes, Cannot BE Cured

way to cure deafness, and that Is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an

Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inf1amed

the result, and unless the Inflammation can be

Chosen
COmmander-in-Chie

At the outbreak of the war Of the
revolution, II should be said. to the
credit Of the New England delegates.
that they were among the foremost to
propose. and the most jealous to pro.
mote, the appointment Of Col. Wash.
ington to the chief command. As the
contest had begun In Massachusetts,.
the Inhabitants Of which had been ths
chief sufferers. and as the existing
army was mostly raised there, it could
not have been thought an extravagant
assumption had that colony aspired to
the honor Of furnishing q commander.
in-chief. But, happily for America.
the patriots Of that day rose far above
the sordid aims Of s~elishness ana par.
II r1valships.
While the discussions were going on
in Congress respecting military prep.
aratioa2, Mr.. John Adams, one Of tho
delegates from Massachusetts,, moved
that tho army. then bssieg!ng the Brit.
ish troops IN Boston, should be adopt.
cd by Congress ~ . Continental army;
and. In the course OF his observations
enforcing this motion. he said it was
his intention to propose for the Office
Of commander-in-chief q gentleman
from Virginia. who was at that time a
member Of their own body. His re-
marks were 50 pointed that all present
perceived them to apply to Col. Wash
ington. who, upon hearing this refer
nee to himself, retired from his seat
and withdrew. When the day for tho
appointment arrived, the nomination
was made by Mr.. Thomas Johnson OF
Maryland. The choice was by ballot,
and, on inspecting the votes, it was
found that Col. Washington was unan-
imously elected. AS soon as the re-
suit was ascertained, the House ad.
journed. On the converting of Con-
gress the next morning the president
communicated to him officially the no.
tice of his appointment, and he rose
in his place and signified his accept
ance in q brief and appropriate reply.

Thought Always of
Country's Welfare

In q letter to Colonel Hamilton, 4
delegate in Congress from the state Of
New York. Washington said: MY
Wish to see the union OF these states
established upon liberal and Derma-
nent principles, and inclination to
contribute my mite in pointing out the
defects Of tho present constitution. are
equally great. All my private letters
have teemed with these sentiments,
and, whenever this topic has been the
subject Of conversation, I have endeav-
Ored to diffuss and enforce them; but
how far any further essay by me might
be productive Of the wished-for end, or
appear to arrogate than belongs
to me, depends SO much upon popular
opinion and the temper and DISPOSE
tons of the people that it 10 not cas-
to decide. l shall be Obliged to you,
however, for the thoughts which you
have promised me on this subject, and
as soon as you can make 1t convenient.
No man in the United States is or can
be more deeply impressed with the
necessity Of q reform In our present
confederation than myself. No man.
perhaps, has felt tho bad effects Of 1t
more sensibly; for to the defects there
Of, and want Of power in Congress,
may justly Be ascribsd the %prolonga-
ton Of the war, and consequently the
expenses occasioned by it. More than
half the perplexities I have expert
enced in the curse Of my command,
and almost the whole Of the difficulties
and distress Of the army, have had
their origin here. But still, the preju-
dices of some. the designs OF others,
and the mere machinery OF the ma
jority make address and management
necessary to give weight to opinions
which IN to combat the doctrines Of
those different classes of men In the
field of politics."
To Lafayette he wrote: I'VE are
now an Independent people, and have
yet to learn political tactics. We are
placed among the nations Of the earth
and have a character to establish; but
how we shall acquit ourselves time
must discover. The probability is lat
least l fear it) that local or state poll
tics will interfere too much with the
liberal and extensive plan Of
government which wisdom and fore
sight, freed from the mist Of prejudice,
would dictate, and that we shall be
guilty of many plumbers In treading
this boundless theatre before WI shall
have arrived at any perfe5&ion in this
art; in a word, that the experience
which is purchased at the price of diff
iculties and distress will alone con-
vince us that the honor, power and
true interest Of this country must be
measured by . continental scale, and
that every departure therefrom weak
ems the Union. and may ultimately
break the band which holds us togeh-
er. To avert these evils, to form a
new constitution that will give o n
sistency. stability and dignity to the
Union and sufAcient powers to the
great council Of tho nation for general
purposes Is a duty incumbent upon
every man who wishes we'll to his
country, and will meet with my aid as
far Is 1t can be rendered in the private
walks Of life"
