MEssns. EDITORS: What Bacon says Of books
may be applied with equal pertinency to men.
There are few characters SO really true as to be
seen to advantage in day light. Hence it is
that such individuality should wear the impress
Of its own peculiar virtues. 1t honors human
ity; and the good and true should not fail SO to
account it as worthy Of all appreciation.
We regard Robert w. Latham, esq, Of Wash
ington city, as one Of these spirits whose be-
nevolence Of heart may be seen in the unosten-
tatious liberality Of his acts--the recollection
OF which will extend far into time and distance.
We learn constantly Of some new demonstra-
ton Of this character performed by Mr.. Latham,
seemingly without the consciousness to himself
Of the noble impulses which elicit them, but
borne by recipients with an increasing admira-
ton on this Accountant only in the commu-
nifty where he lives and is familiarity and favor
ably known, but by those also who have gone
into other lands, sustained by his bounty.
We make these remarks with no invidious
distinction, but because we love to honor living
merit, wherever and in whomsoever it may be
found. Mr.. Latbam's reputation needs no Gu.
logy, nor do we intend these reflections as such

g 1t is worthy of remark, that almost at the
same time that Queen Victoria, of England, is
engaged in the opening ceremonies Of the Crys-

is joining with his fellowcitizens in celebrating
the completion of the grandest work of ancient

kings; colossal structures and lofty battlements
have been reared in various ages to crafty
ambition or strengthen tyranny; roads for
armies and conquerors have been constructed !;
and temples of immense proportions and costly
adorning have been built and consecrated to
religion: but for the purposes of commerce
for the development of the resources of great
