TO JAMES MADISON.

We come, sir, on behalf Of the citi-
zens OF Washington, 10 mingie our con.
gratalatioRs with our regrets at your
political retirement ;--congratulation
that spring from our participation as
Americans in the untarnished glory that
accompanies you regrets that flow
from feelings alive to the loss we are
so soon to experience. At this event,
as citizens of great community, VIC
feel pride only surpassed by our at
fecticn as men.
When we behold you succeeding TO
the place and hoHorS Of the iiluslFious
author Of the declaration of our indie
pendence, under the auspices of whose
private virtues and public duties our
local institutions were devised, We felt
more poigDantly the extent Of our loss
from the uncertainty that always hangs
over the future We had found In him
the enlightened friend of place, which,
amidst all the vicissitudes of its for
tunes, he continued, with the great man
who founded ii, to consider the key
stone OF the union.
In him, too, we had found one, who
spread charm over society, By the. VT.
banity, the hospitality, The kindness OF
his private life.
What then was our satisfaction on
realising, in his friend and successor, a
like devotion to principle, softened by
the same urbanity, the same hospitality,
the same kindness, and permit us, as
we hope without wounding female de-
licscy, to add, irradiated by grace and
benevolenee that have inspired nDivsr-
sal respect and friendship.
We shall never forget thst,when our
city felt the tempest Of war, it was your
wisdom and Rrmness that repaired the
breach, and from the causes that mena-
ced its ruin, extracted the elements of
its stability and expansion May you

Mr.. MADIsoN's REPLY.

~
Gentlemen,
I am much indebted to the citizens
of Washington, in whose behalf sou
speak, for the expressions of regard
and respect addressed 10 me. These
sentiments are The more valuable TO me,
as my long residence among them has
made me well acquainted with their
many titles to my esteem, at the same
time that II has enabled them TO mark
more particularly the course of my
public and personal conduct. Their
partiaiity has greatly overrated both |:
but they do no more than justice to my
honest zeal in the service Of my country,
and to my friendly dispositions towards
this city and its inhabitants. have
ever regarded the selection for the Ma
tional Metropolis, made by its grear
Founder, as propitious to the national
welfareS and although could not ri
val my immediate predecessors in the
aids he afforded, was not less sincere
In my desires for its growth and ina
provement. The ultimate good flow-
ing from the disaster which at one mo-
ment cIoudcd its prospects, is graft.
flying compensation to those ON whom
1t fell; and is among the proofs of that
spirit in the American people, sa
a free people, which, rising above
adverse events, and even converting
them into sources Of advantage, is the
true safeguard against dangers of every
sort.
On the point of final departure from
Washington, l pray its citizens to be
assured, that every expression of their
kindness will be held in lively remem-
brance, with cordial wishes for their
collective prosperity and individual
happiness.

iong conunuei yourseif happy, TO be-
hold, in the prosperity Of others, the
a.testa.ions of your virtues, and espe-
Cially to 6nd in every heart in Wash
ipgton sanctuary of gratitude /!
Bound 10 the union by ties indissolu-
bic, we trust, as they are sacred, we
cannot let this occasion pass without
contrasting, for moment, the past and
present state of our country. AT the
time you were called to the executive
chair, the sky not only lowered, but the
storm had already burst upon us. The
world was in chaos, and violence and
injustice busy in the work of destruc-
ton. AT that crisis, no one could feel
the weight OF responsibility more than
you did, or the obligations of that duty,
which, while it vigorously asserted a
nations rights, abstainea from wanton.
T endaDgering It's vital interests. You
had participated largely IN forming tina,
Constitution under which we had hou
risaed, and must have been fully sensi-
Bile OF the solemnity of an untried ap-
peal which might prematurely expose
1t TO fatal peTls. But the appeal be-
came necessary, and it was made. Its
| fruits are a solid peace, e name among
the nations of the earth, . self respect
founded upon justice and conscious
strength, and, above all, conviction
that our lf5erties can never be los; so
long as that charter endures, which,
formed by the FIRST talents, is now ce-
mented by the best blood of our coun-
try. AT that era our rights were tram
pied upon--they are now respected |;
our property was Plupdered-it is now
without danger spread over the globe /;
our martial character dreoped--it is
now elevated /; our navy had gathered
an ephemerai laurel--it is now crowned
with immortal honor. Power and ma
tionai glory, Sir, have often been ac-
CURED by the sword; but rarely with
out the sacrifice of civil or Political Ii
berty. It is here pre-eminently, that
the righteous triumph OF the one under
the smiles of Hesvehsecares the other.
When we reflect that this sword was
drawn under your guidance, we cannet
resist Offering you our own, as well as
Nations thanks, fer the vigiiance with
which you have restrained it within les
proper limits the energy with which
you have directed it TO its proper OBJ
jects, and the safety with which you
have welded an armed force of fifty
thousand men, aided by an annual dis
bsrsement OF many millions, without
Infringing a political, civil, or religious
right
We remain, with the hisest respect
and regard,

Extract from the Port Folio for August
1915.
" 1t is not without sentiment Of sin,
cere qualification that We witness, in tb,
following proposal. arrangements making
by comPetent-hand, to do justice to the
character of one of the most worthy and
of our countrymen. As .
,tateslnan, a civilian, an orator and a pa
riot, Patrick Henry was entitled to stand
in the foremost rank: Nor do his merit,
claim an infcriar station as firm, an no.
uest. and an honorable man. He was
one of those worthless on whose purity
,uspicion could never fix a stain.
I" II ma ure did much for Mr.. Henry.
character while living, accident has no.
oeen waiting IN its favor, to his posthu
nous fame : for to have found such bi
rgrapher as Mr.. Writ, so competent as
a writer, and SO peculiarly well qualified
in every moral relation, is not the least
fortunate incident in his history.
g" In Mr.. Wirt's Life of Patrick Hen
ry we are irresistably impelied to expect
much the materials being excellent, and
in great abundance, aad the writer able
and devoted to hi. subject. Nor do we
think that the public will run any risk OF
being disappointed by bearing Us conpa-
ny in our high expectations. We hope,
aud, indeed, have no doubt, that the
work will receive liberal patronage.
CONDITIONS.
The work will be printed on Gue
paper. in one octave volume, and vii!
contain from $50 to 400 pages.
II will be delivered to subscribers, il.
