THE MEN OF OTHER DAYS , An Ei-Mayor of Omalia Doing Sifflilar DntyatLawrencclmrg.Infl . , TJio Gmvcfl of Harrison nnd Plko at South Bond The Famous Cnbln Interesting Itcnt- IflcenccB. Special Correspondence of the BEE. Ono Saturday afternoon , during the lovely October days of last Autumn , cir cumstances took mo to the old city of L&wroncobnrg , Indiana , ono of the first tovriu built In Indiana territory , lying upon the banks of the Ohio river , and hard by the Ohio atato lino. After the close of the war of 1812-15 , several ofll. con , who had won renown in that trnr , retired from the nrmy , and located in the vicinity of Lawroncebnrg. Gon. Harrison wns ono of the nambor , Gxlng his location nt North Bond , just over the line In Ohio ton rnllos from the former pltco. The old national road , which was the great thoroughfare between the At lantic and the Mississippi river , ran through Lawroncobmgwhich was ono of the well-known stopping placoa on the route , and the ancient looking houao where I was ( stopping was ono of the noted hoatlorlca that marked the line at convenient distances. There the great men of the olden days have tarrlud for icst in passing to and from the national capital. Gen. Jack- non , Ham Houston , President Polk , Felix Grnnday , John Bell , Thomas H. Benton , Henry Olay , J. J. Orittondon , and many othora of the eminent statesmen - men of that era , now long none , have boon sheltered beneath Its roof. Fit- teen and twenty coaches a day need to halt there to partake of Its choor. But the statesmen who then travelled over the line have all passed away , and the old fashioned tUgo coach Is now ono of the associations of the past. Who does not recall , If his memory extends back to that period , the tlmo whan the com ing of the atsgo coach was the great cvont of the day In the country village , when the driver , coming In sight 'of town , Bounded his horn , giving notice to all of his approach , and with a crack of his whip starting his six foaming steeds Into a gallop , ana reigning them up at the door of the village ion lu all the prldo of the commander of an army. The stage driver In those days was the great char acter along the line , especially with the young , who looked up to him with feeling nklo to awe. Wonderful the changes the last fifty years have wroughtl Will the changes of the next fifty years bo aa wonderful ? Several gentlemen called upon mo during the afternoon , among thorn , the mayor of Lawranceburg , Mr. Roberts , whom I did not recognize as aver having Boon before. In conversation , ho said , to my surprise , ho was once mayor of Omaha. It was G. W. Roberts , who was mayor in 18G8 , and was in partnership with Mr. Popploton. He soon after wards returned to Lairrencobnrg , his na tive place , and Uat year was elected mayor of that city. On Sunday it was my good fortune to hoar an eloquent sermon from Rav. Mr. Lee , pastor of the Hamllno Meth odist church of that place. Be was the Captain Leo of General Popo'a staff , who carried the now famous order from Pope to General Filz John Porter , about the time of the reception of which there has been.BO much controversy , and which has been deemed to have sach an im portant bearing npon thu question of the guilt or Innocence of Porter. Captain lieo was then fighting the reb'a ho ia now lighting the devil and showed himself to bo a good fighter. A VISIT TO TUB TOMB OF GEN. IIAIUUROX. A gentleman kindly Invited mo to a drive to North Bond , made memorable as the homo and last retting place of the ex-president. There ho made his dwel ling placa , though there wore , at that time , but few settlers in all that region , and between North Bend and Cincinnati , some thirty miles away. Ho built his log cabin on a beautiful plateau overlooking the tivor , and in full view of the Ken tucky shore. Ho lived in qalet retire , ment except when filling the oflico of United States senator from Ohio. Ho was accustomed to sit on the porch of his log cabin , which became such a conspicuous feature of the presidential campaign of 1810 , and watch the steamers BB they passed np and down the lazy waters of the Ohio. Ho was , at the tlmo ho was nominated for the presidency , clerk of the United States court at Cincinnati. His famous log houao has entirely disappeared , and In its place there was some kind of an out-building or grain house. The tomb stands upon the crown of a small mount some forty rods bask from the river which it overlooks , and In full view of the country round about. It Is solid masonry , bnllt of heavy stone ; Is about three foot high , and twelve foot square , with a > flat surface roof , the heavy stones resting on the arched brick vaults hermetically sealed so that if cannot bo opened except by digging through a thick solid atone work. The reason of this la fonnd In the following facts : A few yoara ago , a grave at North Bond was robbed by ghouls of its victim a night or two after burial , The poison was an In timate friend of the Harrison family. Aa aoon as the fact was made known , Senator Ben Harrison , of Indiana , who IB a grandson of the ox-president , and hia brother , started for Cincinnati to search through the medical establishments there for the remains of their friend. In ono of thorn , In company with an ofiiccr they came upon a coflin which had boon brought in only that morning. Upon opening It , the Harrisons were horrified to aeo befora them the fco of their own fither , John Scott Harrison , who had died but a few days before , and was laid by the side , of his father , Gen. Harrison. Not only had the grave cf their friend been robbed but the grave of their father also. The remains were , of course , re turned to their nutlng place and then the present tomb waa built , as described. It Is a lovely , quiet spot , fitting to be the tilont homo of the illustiioas cltl- Z3n , chief magistrate of the American nation. A few tall troea stand around npon the crest , like sentinels keeping guard oycr the sacred shrine , und tneii branches waving a solemn requiem : 1 Ho has fought his lait battle , Ho has won bis lait victory , No uiorn iball wake him to glory again,1 Returning from North Bend I notlcu a great stone standing a few rods bad from the roadside , moss grown , and al most black with age. An Inquiry brough the answer that it was the grave of Cap Plko , an officer In the war of 1812. Tiii prompted me to examine It , and , thougl the lettera wore much defaced , it wa evident that It w s the grave'of ciptaln , afterwards Gen. Eebnlan M. Pike , THE DISCOVEnEU OF TIKE'S PEAK , who o history Is foil ef interesting adven ture , and heroic fortitude and bravery. Ho explored the sourca of thoheaa- waters of the Miisisiippi in 1805 , and then down to the junction cf that river with the Missouri. His next explorations were to the headwaters cf the Arkansts , the Osage and Kansas rivers , then up the Platte to Its source , and discovering Pike's Po k. While ho was thus engaged Lawls and Clark were on their memorable - blo expedition up the Missouri to its sources , and thence across the Rocky mountain * to the Columbia river and the Pacific coast , which has recently been visited by a corps of Omaha's enorgolio. live , business men , traveling in palatial c rs , surrounded by all the comforts and luxuries of the moat refined civilized life. These explorations will form the subjects of subsequent letters , embracing what the writer regards ai Interesting realtor relating to the early hhtoiy of Nebraska. JOHN M. TnAYEii.
