Secretary Weeks was presented
yesterday with a copy Of letter,
believed to have been hitherto un-
published, from George Washington,
written shortly after the surrender
of CORVALLIS at Yorktown and re-
Gently discovered in the record room
of the House of Representatives.
The presentation was made by Will
liam T. Page, clerk of the House.
Dated at Mount Vernon, November
IS. 1881, the letter was addressed to
Robert H. Harrison, esq. The first
two paragraphs do not touch upon
important matters. but the third
makes this reference to the surrender
of the British general.
Il thank you for your kind con-
gratulations on the capitulation of
CORVALLIS. 1t is an interesting
event and may be productive of much
good If properly improved, but If it
should be the means of relaxation
and sink us into supineness and
security it had better not have hap
pened. Great Britain for some time
past has been much encouraged by,
the impolicy of our conduct to con-
tinue the war, and should there be
an interference of European politickS
in her favor. peace may be further
removed from us than we expect,
while one thing we are sure 'of>and
that is. that the only certain way
to obtain peace is to be prepared

vide the means of supporting them.

Special Dispatch to The Star
JONESBORO Ga, August 15.-
Dan Henderson can rest on his
laurels today (p'tuhO for he is the
champion long-distance tobacco
chewer of this town and perhaps
these United States.
JoneSboro has watched the diff
ferent types of marathon and en-
durance contests of late and finally
decided 1t would stage one itselS.
1t called for entrants for tobacco
chewers' marathon and more than
two-score men at once accepted
the gage of battle. The rules pro-
vided that each man would take a
big plug and start away. The one
still on his feet and chewing after
the others had quit from chewers'
cramp would be acclaimed
champion. Contestants could eat
and sleep. but were not allowed to
relinquish from their mouths The
plugs upon which they started.
When the whistle blew for the
getaway forty-six pairs OF teeth
clamped down on forty-six plugs.
Hour after hour the contest went
on, until after two and Cne-half
days of continued effort Dan Hen
derson was the only one who re-
tanned a portion of his plug and
whose teeth still moved in even
mastication (p'tuhD Dan Hendcr-
son chewed alone and he vowed
he could keep on for another day
or two. when his physician decla--
ed lockjaw might develop. and
stopped him.
The champion, after the contest,
said he was ready to meet all
corners. Meantime the Jonesboro
city council is considering legis-
lation that forbids all future mara
thons of this nature within the city
limits.
