Washington, ann. with il the draft of Farewell
Address, which the President had prepared,
and on which he requested Onr opinion. he
then proposed that we should fix on day Tor
an interviews at my house on the subject.
day was accordingly appointed, and on thar
day COL Hamilton attended. He observed 70
me in words to this effect, that after having
read and examined the draft, itappeared to him
to be susceptible of Improvement. That he
thought the easiest and best way was to leave
the draft untouched, and in its fair state; and
10 write the whole over with such amendments,
alterations, and corrections as he thought were
advisable, and that he had done SO; he then
proposed to read it, and we proceeded delibe-
rately to discuss and consider it, paragraph by
paragraph, until the whole met with our mutu-
al appreciation Some amendments were made
during the interview, but none OF much lmpor-
lance.
Although this business had not been hastily
despatched, yet aware of the consequence OF
such paper, ! suggested the giving it fur
Their critical examination; but he declined II,
SAYING he was pressed for time, and was anx-
ious 10 return the draft to the President with
Out delay.
1t afterwards occurred to me that certain
proposition was expressed In terms 100 genera
and unqualified; and / limited it in letter to
the President AS the business took the course
above mentioned, recurrence to the draft was
unnecessary, and it was not read. There was
this advantage in the course pursued, the Presl-
dents draft remained, las deicacy requred)
fair and not obscured by interIinealons, &c
By comparing i. with the paper sent with 1t, ne
would Immediately observe the particular e.
mendations and corrections, that were propo-
sed, and would find them standing in their in
tended places. Hence he was enabled to re-
view, and to decide on the whole matter, with
much greater cearnees and facility, than If ne
had received them in seperate and detached
notes, and with detailed references to the pa
ges and lines, where they were advised to be in
troduCed.
With great esteem and regard, I am dear sir,

Interesting papers, and deserves to he viewed

the ewes of some persons, had been involved IN

Among these papers is long letter from
John Law. which we publish below. 1t sustains
entirely the general conviction that the Fare

and with many alterations; as, in some places
whole paragraphs are erased, and others sub

others sentences and words erased, and others

| CURE FOR HYDROPHOBLa.
A man, bit in the finger by mad dog,
came to consult Mr.. Rossi, in conse-
quence Of pain he felt in the arm, the
back, and particularly the finger. A
caustic applied to the finger removed
the pain, but few days afterwards il
returned, accompanied with symptoms
of hydrophobia. The patient could no
longer look at water without horror ;
an inflammation in the throat prevent
ed him from swallowing even chewed
bread, and he experienced strong pro-
pensity to bite those around him.
In this state he was brought TO M.
Rossi, who, observing that he could no,
bear the sight of water, nor that even
of shining bodies, provided in another
room pile, consisting of fifty pieces of
plate silver and zinc, intermixed with tit-
ty pieces of pasteboard moistened with
solution of muriate of ammonia. He
employed slips of brown paper, mois-
tened, as conductor, on which The ma.
ked feet of the patient were placed.
and at the moment when he opened his
mouth to bite, one end of the arc was
thrust into it, while the other commu-
nicated with the pile. The patient suf.
fered great deal from the operation.
which, after several shocks, weakened
him so much, that he could no longer
support it. Being stretched out on The
floor, he was then galvanized with ease.
The operation made the perspiration
run from him in great drops.
After some time, M. Rossi caused him
TO be conveyed home, and gave orders
that he should be brought back mex,
day, to the end that the operation might
be repeated. 1t was 2 o'clock in The
afternoon when the patient was galya-
nized, and at 6 the next morning he came
to tell M. Rossi that he was completely
cured, as he experienced no pain or
difficulty of swallowing, and was entirely
free from his aversion to water and Iio.

York DAILY Advertiser.
"Last year we enter'd on the chase
OF new Presidential race.
Five stately steeds, of different soul,
Were started for the tempting goal.
One bolted ere the strife begun
Another, broken winded, run
A third, with somewhat antic bound,
Pranc'd light, tho dstanc'd DER the ground
A fourth, a high-fed western horse,
Dash'd boldly DER the splendid course.
Gain'd the first heat, so highly reckon'd-
But NARRAGANsET beat the second.
Sad disappointments these to men,
Who meier expect to run again -
Or, if they try the dangerous road,
Must founder underneath the load.
Caucus is dead His baneful voice
No more shall guide the peoples choice:
No more, in dark, disastrous weather.
Shall that foul conclave meet together.
And in their midnight orgies trace
Tn indignant nations deep disgrace.
Henceforward, LET the people learn
Their highest interests TO discern,
Give office-seekers their reward,
And the base demagogue discard;
~AA'~ SJ~~HNUtNS AtVAa PoWSh uhh RAdCSS
And stamp intriguers with disgrace;
But let no bold unhallow'd hand,
Touch the great CHARTER of the land.
Shrunk, wasted, wither'd be the arm
That plots the Constitution harm.
Let no vile quack, in guise of friend,
Let no State-tinker dare T. amend.
'Tis selfish clamor, mere pretence,
As void of reason as of sense,
Designed alone for private ends,
To help themselves, and serve their friends.
But what a tempest rolls on high,
Along the distant Southern sky
What direful threats, what dread alarms,
What clustering cries of I" stand to arms.n

How bristles up his shaggy hair!
Fierce passions in his eye-balls roll,
And dark resentment fires his soul.

MOURNING APPAREL.

1t is not easy to enter freely on the
discussion of topics on which the feel
lngs of large part Of the community
are strongly pre-engaged; or TO make
any suggestion of mistake or impropri-
ETY. in those customs, which their feel
ings have hallowed. The custom of
gearing mourning apparel is one of this
nature. In any suggestions against its
expediency, il is necessary therefore to
bespeak the readers candor and indui-
gence.
The principal objections against the
custom of wearing mourning apparel,
are, that it is useless, inconvenient, and
expensive. For, what use does it
serve? To remind me am in afflic-
ton? do not need any such memen-
10. To point me out 10 others as a
mourner? | do not wish to be so point
ed out. Shall the sable garb be adopt
ed then because it is grateful to nv
feelings, because it is a kind of solace
TO me ? | can gain no consolation from
il.
IT then, the custom is useless, it is
still more Objectionable, on account of
the inconvenience and expense. 1t is
inconvenient, because it throws the care
of purchasing and making clothes upon
family, at the very moment, when, on
every account, it most needs seclusion
and quletness; when, worn out with
care and watching and sorrow, it needs
retirement and relief That the ex-
peDse presses heavily on the poor, is a
matter very well known, and, Ibelieye,
generally regretted. If, then, there is
a custom in the community, which is no
real benefit, and is real burden, il
would seem a clear inference that il
ought TO be discouraged. If there be
any who fear that they shall be too soon
forgotten among men, when they are
gone, let them be reminded that it de-
ponds upon themselves, not upon the
habiliments of their friends upon their
character, not upon their obsequies,
whether they shall be remembered.--
