Er'Tdct Of Letter from Baltimore, nj 9th instant
II very satisfactory learn by yours of Tuesday
last, that the Citizens Of Richmond were about to fake
measures for the expression of their admiration of the
late wonderful events In France. II s to be hoped that
the same thing will be done throughout the country
should the Revolution which has been so far conducted
with such consummate prudence and moderation be
successfully accomplished in The spirit il has been
commenced, perhaps finished. We have had in BaI
more no public celebrations; but small party of the
friends Of General Lafayette met spontaneously and
without any public notice to celebrate his birthday,
which was the 9th Of September 1884, and TO give ex
preston TO their delight at the consistent and important
part acted by him in the late morally sublime drama
send you the sentiments expressed on the OCCASION
in which thousands would have cordially united-to-
gether with remarks OF Mr.. Skinner no was re-
quesed TO preside. May II not be expected that this
celebration OF the birthday Of that usrious veteran
that hereafter the 9th day Of September will become
great Jubilee for AHIoicnislIl
TOASTS.
j. The President of the United States.
2. Charles Carroll Of Carrollton.
3. The memory Of Washington.
When the fth toast was called for Mr.. Skinner asked
leave TO make few observations in which he was sure
the gentlemen would all concur:
We have met said he, almost without concert & az nv
one impulse 10 celebrate the birthday Of Lafayette We
take pride in rearing monuments OF gratitude 10 the Pari
OTIS who perish in the immediate defence of their family
and their counlrys rghtsWho then would refuse To do
homage TO those who. like lafayette, leaves relatives
