He said that Irishmen were among the best soldiers in the \vorld-— they had fought valiantly under him, in every battle, in the war of 1812, and since--he never knew an Irishman under hist command to deaert —they were always among the first and foremost in the fight, ana among the very last to leave the field. Where* ever 1 ordered, they were sure to go, without regard to fatigue, or fear, or danger* And, continued he, with eonsiderable emphasis, as well as feeling, my Irish soldiers loved me. And, said we. General, we believe the Irish peop» le all over the United States love you, and will vote lor you.

Heport of the Board of Examiner*, Mai/ 20,1951. We, the undersigned.(by special request,) acting a« the Board of Examiners of tha Commercial Institute of Indianapolis, do certify that we have attended tbe examination of the present graduating class of Ktlid institution, and find said class as well acquainted with the elementary principles of Double Entry Book Keeping aa could well be expected, their ajzo and opportunities of actual practice considered. We Inmove them to have received from their present Instructor, a thorough drilling in this all important branch of Commercial Education, which, if steadily observed and properly practiced upon, will fender them ablo accountants and volnablc citizens, and we would recommend that the following named mctnborsof the present class receive Diplomas, to wit:

James B. Weeks, John M. Dorsoy, Howkiah W. Roberts, Samuel J.' Morris, Joseph R. Haugh, John T. Ferguson, Ceorgo'W. Dorsey, Nicholas McCarty, Jr., Jamea T. Brown, and Tyra Montgomery.

And, in conclusion, we would congratulate tho citizens of Indiana in now having it in their power to patronize a Uoine Institution of Commercial Education where as much information, in asshott a time, and at far less excuse and anxiety of mind on the part of parents and guardians, can, and we believe will be imparted, as at any other similar institution in the weet
