The ? 2'2nd of February brings te as the one hundred spd esv suly-eighth anniversary ef the birth et Geerge Washing ton and oel#brattena in his honor A will be bald in every section ef this " broad land. Washington was great as the J world measures greatness and there 41 is a coastsnt oalliag to mt?d his C earthly deeds to true greatness. It hi a is true he did net have te struggle s with ajpvsrty, se so many of oar Americans, who bavo obtained great- s nesa have dona, for bis parents ware P f wealthy for tbe times in whiob he hi lived.. But his weeltb did not, as te ? { no generally tbe oase, fasten upon t< i iiim idle and dissolute habits. From al ! , the beginning of his career until iu " close hie life was a basy and aotive 81 one, free from vtcfi ;oi erej Kina. ^ Indeed, Washington morality ha* ever bean held up as an example for n the youth aad even the mousing hi*- 61 - t~tj?n hM Mind, in hia attacks upon & it.

It *** not hi* public life b I services alone that have given him si the commanding positions' he holds ai in-the a/fections of the Amerioan b ? people. "Hia peraenai character hia unimpeachable integrity, the w purity of bia metivea aud the tenor of his whole private life have had much to do with it. N* better evidenoe of the esteem in whieh lie 0 was bold by bis eontetoporariea n could'be given him than the fact g that the pnblio observance et hia UrirthdaT began daring his lifetime, g This has been true of no other p Amerioan. j, ' " 1 _ fi Conference Quartette. g As aunounesd the Methodist Oou- ti ferenee Quartette appealed in the Opera Rouai here Wednesday night S and last night, and was greeted an both sights by a full houaa.
