The washington Monument.

To the Editor of the American Organ
SIR: Agreeably TO resolution Of EutaD Council
the subjoned paper Is transmitted you for publica-
ton. word or two in connexion with the sub
ject. The object contemplated must commend IL
self TO every true American. The only controversy
that possibly exist is with regard TO tb tmeans
best adapted 10 the securement Of the end. We
understand that the plan Of circulars, addressed on
the part of the Managers Of the Monument TO the
various councils has been resortedto. That course
we are convinced, win fail to secure those uniform
and thorough supplies which win be the natural
and unfailing results Of the plan below.
Our plan proposes TO commence with the high
est body known to the order, and TO 60 forth with
its authority. II the plan be adopted, the Grand
Council Of the United States will act Immediately
upon the State Grand Councils, and they In turn
will exert similar influence upon the subordinate
councils The system viii be thorough, and con-
sequenty the desired results win be but legitimate
effects. Nor is this a mere theory, INFESTED and
untried We call attention to the following paper,
the original Of which Is in the hands Of the Urea
surer Of Eutaw Council:
Received, Washington, May ~, 1855, of the
Treasurer Of Eutaw Council, Georgetown, ID. O.,
one hnndred and fly dollars, in aid of the Wash
ington National Monument Society, in part OF a
contribution of sir hundred dollars voted by said
Euta Council JNo NJ McCALLA,
"Treas Washington National Monument"
Here, then, is specimen Of the working Of the
plan we recommends earnest Of what Il IL able
10 sccomplsh---a kind Of first fruits of the album
dant harvest which may be gathered from all sec
tons OF our native land. And thus the Monument
viii no longer be dependent upon the uncertain
and insufficient supplies which have heretofore been
raised BY the operation ef imperfect plans. But
that appropriate memorial of the nations gratitude
win uprise In beauty and grandeur until its stain
less marble and It's towering altitude shall 6ty rep
resent alike the purity of the Life and the spendor
Of the fame Of Washington. GroRGErows
