DEATH OF WASHINGTON.

The following vivid and touching sketch
of the last moments Of the Father of his
Country is from letter in the New York
American 4J 4stE fh
Passing the great hal! ornemen,sd with
pictures Of English hunting scenes, wo as.
cended the osken staircase, with its carved
and antique balustrade. We stood al the
door-we pressed the handle-,he room
and the bed where he died were before US.
Nothing in the lofty drama Of his existence
surpassed the grandeur Of ,ha, 6rsl scene.
The cold, which he had taken from expo.
sure in overseeing some paris Of his grounds
and which resisted the earliest domestic
remedies that were applied. advanced. in
the course OF two short days. into tina,
frighlfui form Of the disease Of the throat
iaryngitis. His valued friend, Dr.. Craik,
was instantly summoned, and, assisted by
the best medical skill of the surrounding
country., exhausted all the means of mis- arts
--bu, w;thou. aTording him relief. He
patiently submitted. though in grea, distress
10 the various remedies proposed; but j.
became evident, from the gloon settling
upon the cOuRlenances of the medical gen.
tlensn. that the case was hopeless. Ad-
vancing insidously, the disease had fasten.
ed itself with deadly certainty. Looking
with perfec, caimness on the sobbing group
around him. he said: "Grieve not, Dy
friends, il is as anticipated from the fret;
the debt which we all owe is now about 10
be paid: | am resigned to the event. "
Requesting Mrs. Washington TO bring him
two wills from his escritor, he directed one
to be burnt, and placed the other in hei
hands, as his last will and testament; and
then gave some final instructions to Mr.
Lear, his SECRETARY and relation. as 10 th'
adjustment. Of his business affairs. HI
soon after became greatly distressed; snt
as, in the psroxyisms, which became NOR,
| frequent and violent, Mr.. Lear, who wal
extended on the bed by his side, assisted
him 10 turn, hs. with kindness, bat viii
difficulty, sr.iculs,ed: III fear | give yo,
great trouble sir; but perhaps it 10 dat!
we all owe. ono to another: | trus,S yo'
will receive tho same attention, when yo'
shall require IT,"
As tho nigh, waned, the fatal symptom
became more imminent. His breath be
came more labored and suffocsting, and hi
voice soon after failed him. Peceiving nj
end approaching. he Strengthened himself 4
his full length; he folded his owl hahds il
the necessary attitude upon his chest plac
cling his 6oger upon the pulse of his lei
wrist. and thus calmly prepared and watch
lug his own dissolution, he awaited th
sammons Of his Maker. The las, faint hop
Of his friends had disappeared. Mrs. Wast
ing,on, s,upihed with grief, sat at the fo'
Of the bed, her eyes fixed s.eadfassly uPo
him; DR.. Crsik, in deep gloom, stood vii
/ his face buried ia bis hands Z. the fre, b
