VINO WnoTE WAsuTNGToN's Farewell
AnDREssl-, This instrument being recent-
lyclaimed as tho production of Alexan-
der Hamilton, by the son of Hamilton,
on the strength oi copy of il,in lIamil.
toms own hand writing being found a.
mons his papers, passage from letter
written by Gov. Jay has been published
which totally oveIsets the claim. BY this
passage it i. oven that Hamilton tran.
scIibed the address tor the purpose of
presenting to Washington for his appro.
val certain alterations from the original.
The main object in the endeavor 10 prove

to be to set aside the idea of his being
opposed to the modern idea of interven-
tiuu, kossurh having failed to satisfy
everyhndy that that doctrine is really
saught in the address.

editor oftho Gospel Banner. in the last
number of his Walks in the Crystal Pal
ace" relates the following incident as
happening under his own observation; It
speaks well for the spontaneous emotions
of the Queens heart:-"We never saw
any person speak to her in the Palace,
but some of her own party; nor did wo
ever hear her direct her discourse to any
others except in one instance; an unfor.
tunate, lame girl. fearing TO be in the
way of her Majesty, attempted to run
from her presence, but fell in the act,
The Queen sprang towards the child,
raised her up from the floor, pressed a
kiss upon her pale cheek, spoke word
of kindness to the child, and thus relieved
her of her fears"
