We rave been favored with the following
admirable fctterfor publication. The views
which Mr.. Van Burcr tgkcs cf the duty of all +,
in the present position of the Texas question,
are emincntly right and patriotic, and cannot
put md response in every truly American
heart:
hNDENwALD. Sept 2, 1915.
DEAR sIn$ have had the honor To receive
your friendly letter, conveying to me, by It's
direction, the proceedings of "a spontaneous
meeting oi the democracy OF the l0thand 18th
wards of the city of New YORK.
"The just discrimination and patriotic ar,Iof
by which those proceedings are distinguished,
do honor TO the meeting. and are i'm harmony
with the invaluable principles and past lives
OF those who composed it. l have read thcnr
with great satisfaction, and do not, in thc least,
doubt that they speak also the sentiments of
the democracy of the whole city
Without more particular notice of the
contents oi the resolution, in respect to all of
which my sentiments are well understood, |
will content myself with single remark up
on one only OF the points they embrace. 1t is
well known that the preliminary steps taken
by the late administration for the annexation of
Texas, did not, under the then existing cir
cumstanccs, meet with the appreciation of por-
TONS oil the democratic party. Yet YOU are
IN my Judgment, quite right, in assuming that
that measure has been so far consummated UNI
der the sanction of the constituted authorities
oil both governments, as to render all farther
agitation OF the question: or obstacles to its
amicable completion by the citizens of either
country, unwise and highly inexpepient. To
refrain from such course, is not only in hon
orable consistency with the justice and SINGER
NY OF the dissenting opinions TO which have
alluded but, under the circumstances, the per-
Torrance OF solemn duty on the part of those
who held them. 1t can scarcely be necessary
to enlarge upon the extent to which the inn
perative duty would be increased. should our
country be involved in IA war with Mexico, in
consequence OF the adoption of authorized
measures to carry into full and fair effect the
compact OF annexation. That no such consc-
quences may follow, is, for many reasons, to
be most earnestly desired. But if the result
be otherwise, ! cannot permit myself to doubt
that the administration will, as il ought be
supported in the prosecution of such a war by
the hearts and hands of the whole people.
IL am, dear sir, very respectfully and truly,
yours, an. VAN buren,.

JUDGE STORY.-The following brief bio
graphical sketch, we take from the Tribune.
Judge Story was born i'm 1850. He gradu.
ated at Harvard University in 1898. He was
appointed Associate Justice of the United
States, by President Madison, in 1911. In
addition to the duties of Judge of the Supreme
Court he devoted much of his time 10 the
Cambridge Law School as Dane Professor of
Law III Harvard University. His command
ing talents as a Lawyer, and the peculiar facil-
ity with which he impaired 10 others the rich
stores of his own mind, gave Harvard Law
School prominence over all other similar
Institutions.
The fame of Story was not confined To our
country. He had deservedly high reputation.
His name reflected honor on the highest post
OF honor which he held JAY, Ellsworth,
Marshall, Story and others have given charac-
ter to the Court and made it what the trainers
oil the Constitution intended il to- be, the
GROWING glory OF IA free and law-abiding peo-
pie Few OF the great men who have given
lustre To the Supreme Court have done so
much for the clear exposition of its Laws.
Marshall and Story rank side by side i'm this
respect. Cool judgement great learning firm
ness oil character, strict integrity a clear head
and pure heart, rendered him eminently fit
Tor that place, now vacant and which we
fear cannot be filled. A substitute we NAV
ana VIII have, his equal we cannot expect to
find: The loftincss of his intellect, the purity
oil his gentle spirlt-the magic spell with
which his converse ion charmed his hearers
made him the idol of every circle i'm which he
moved.
But this is neither the time nor place to
write his history or his eulogy. While we
bow to the overriding will of Providence. we
may he permitted to mourn the misCortunes of
our country in the loss of her brightest Jewels
Thompson, Baldwin, Story, taken from
single department of our Government i'm so
shorta time. Truly we are fallen upon gloomy
days when star after star fades from our hori-
zon, leaving us in comparative darkness to
mourn their setting, alas never again to rise
III that sky where their light is so much needed.
