ENGRAVING
90 S{PAtPI3S3 SENATE DISIAEII3HI2a
OF THE

THE design of this great National work of art was
first conceived, and prepara tions for execution
commenced in the winter of 1912. In the midst of
very many difficulties, and n. very great expense,
the work steadily carried forward to its execution
and was first presented to the public in the autumn of
1876
few hundred copies were then struck Off but the
demand that sprung up Immediately its appearance
was so great that it evident that the plate would
not supply it unless the character of the engraving
were changed from simple mezzotint TO a com5inat ion
OF line and mezzotint. The printing accordingly
Immediately stopped, and the plate put again into the
hands of the Engravcr to add TO its beauty and ma
lonal interest the character of durability After the
lapse of nearly year, the printing has ain com
menced, aud the subscriber calls the attention Of
the public to the work, with the confidence that he
supply their orders with clear and beautiful i'm
presslons.

TO THE PEOPLE OF ARKANSlS.

FELLow-CIrIzENs: AT the earnest solicitation
OF the President, and other personal and political
friends, | have been induced, very much ganst
my personal wishes, to resign my seat, as one
OF your Senators, in the Senate of the United
otates-(a position ever more valued by me than
any other.) for the purpose of going Immediately
as Minister of peace, on the part of the United
States, 10 the government of Mexico. 1t has
oeen thought desirable object, that the war in
which the United States and Mexico are now en-
gagged should be terminated and my agency to
effect this object, has been invoked; and to this
invocation, from sense of public duty, | have
yielded. | enter upon the discharge of this deli
cate, responsible. and may add, laudable trust to
both you and me, with heary heart; arising from
a dlstrust OF my abilities, on the hand, and
ihe abrupt, though temporary, severance of near
and dear ties 10 me, on the other.
regret exceedingly that the pressure Of the
occasion, has afforded me the time or the op-
portunty to consult any of you upon this subject.
1t will be source of additional pain to me, if |
Ind that the step which | have taken should not
meet with your appreciation. | go for a special
object, and will be relieved from my trust, and
permitted to return, so soon us 1t snail have been
accomplished. My expectations are that my la
bors will be over before the close of the summer.
and probably at an earlier day-shouId | be dis
appointed IN these calculations, you will be ad-
vised of it.
Life, fellow citizens. is uncertain. | visit at
an uniavorable season of the year, an unhea lthy
country. 1t may be the order Of Providence that
we may never meet again. Whatever fortune
the future may have IN store for me, there is one
thing can promise you, and that is, shall ever
remember with gratitude, your early, constant
and devoted attachment, in public and in private
life, at all times, and upon all occasions, from mv
boyhood TO the present hour-a service Gf twenty
consecutive years, in one or the other Houses of
Congress, is proof 81 this. My heart, fellow.
citizens, is too full for anything.
