A LESSON WoRTu REMENnERtNG.--

nomination Of Mr.. Chase. He was cum
popular" they said, all of them; we mean,
all Of them who had axes to grind. They
wanted a third man, some namby, pamby
fellow, who was popular, available. But
the people wanted someo one who had stood
fire, and they took Mr.. Chase They have
elected him. They did not want advice,
did not take it from the politicians BY
adopting milk -ard-water policy, and a
and-water candidate, the Republicans
would have been beaten instead Of fachiev-
ing the stunning victory which carries 10Y
and satisfaction to hdndrcds of thousands
OF anxious hearts from the Atlantic to

they learn nothing, they forget nothing,
either in prosperity or adversely. The re-
cent election affords lesson worth remem

SIR:--I have been honored with letter
from you, dated at Berlin on the 29th Of
Oct. last covering one from n1mesake
ofmine, and who may very probably be a
distant relation, as our families We're from
the same country--mine earlier than his
two brothers migrating during the Com
monweal,h of England, or rather during
the troubles of Charles |. Not knowing
through what other medium to address
him, take the liberty Of sending my an.
swer to his request under cover to you.
You kaow, my good sir, that it is no;
the policy Of this country, to employ al
lens, where it can be well avoided either in
the military or civil walks Of life; but for
want Of provident care and foresight, they
will fad themselves (indccd they now be
gin to feel it) under the necessity of resort
ing to foreign aid for skiliul men in the en-
cheering and artillery corps. II my name
sake is well instructed in either Of these
branches Of military science, which, by
tile By, is hardly to be expected front his
age, there would bo no dougt of his favor
able reception, without which think it
would be decep.ious TO encourage hopes OF
employmcntin in the army Of the United
States; for their is a species Of self impor-
tance in all foreign officers that cannot be
gri,ied without doing injustice to megi;o-
rious characters among our own country
men, who can conceive, and Justly, where
there is no prcpondoranco ofcxpericnce or
merit, that they are entitled to the occu-
pancy of MI Offices in the gilt of the GOV
crnmcnt--Yol. II, pp.39 1-2.
