A subscriber Of the National Iatelligencer
sends that paper The subjoined e~ulogium upon
the character Of WAsHIEGroE, extracted from
the London MoafAly MagasiAs for February,
1900. It deserves to be placed in the appendix
Of Mr.. EvERErr's celebrated GRAFTON, which
has already been delivered in The presence Of
80 large a number of admiring audiences, and
which. we trust, be will continue to repeat un-
til be shall have given a portion at least Of
the citizens Of every State in our still united
country an opportunity Of listening to it from
his own eloquent lips. Let him rest assured
that there are thousands still anticipating hat

pium on the character Of the late General
GEoRGE WAsHINGToS:
Died. on the - December, at bis residence
in Virginia, in the 6Sth year Of his age,
GEoRcE WASHINGTON, late President OF the
United States Of America man superior TO
all the TILES which arrogance or servility have
invented for the decoration OF hereditaryrank.
He was one who seemed expressly formed BY
Providence for the mighty work Of establish
ing the independence Of a people which may
one day delight the philanthropist with the
view Of as great an assemblAge OF freemen as
Europe now contains Of slaves.
- His firm mind, adapted to all circumstances
Of fortune, equally inaccessible to the batteries
Of hope and the suggestions Of despair, was
kept steady by the grand principles Of pure
love 10 bis country and a religious attachment
to moral duty. He was one OF those truly
great men who can be cool without phlegm,
dispassionste without indifference who, in
tent upon an important end, are little movedby
the vicissltudes and fluctuations in the means
which lead to il. In him even fame, glory,
reputation were subordinate consideration to
the successful performances Of the high task
assigned him and he could without Impotence
wait for that reward OF public applause and
gratitude which was all be desired for services
beyond the power Of estimate. In his charae-
ter was renewed all the qualities we most sd-
mire in the noblest names Of antiquity. limo
leon, Artist les, Camillus, FabiGs, did not sur
pass him in fOrtitude, prudence, disinterested-
ness, and integrity. No one ever more effec-
tually united decisive frmness with that lenity
which lows frcm true benevolenee- No one
ever passed through the ordeal Of power and
influence more free from the remotest suspi-
eion Of selfish and ambitious designs.
@To have passed u~nsullied through such a
career Of glory and usefulness is 50 high and
rare a blessing that regret for bis loss will
probably, in those minds warmed by A sense Of
exalted virtues, be sunk in the satisfaction Of
seeing another illustrious name placed beyond
all danger Of human fnfrmitg.o

mon schools Of the free States are an inappre-
cisble advantage. They are the great wonder
70 the stranger, especially it be comes from
the over-swollen cities Of ancient Europe. We
are ourselves Justly proud of them. But with
these unTivalled facilities presented to our chill
dren, it Is bare candor to admit that the South
ern States, where the sans advanced condition
Of popular education does not exist, greatly
excel US in the number and the calibre Of their
present public men, young and old. However
mort flying the concession, il is the truth, and
cannot be successfully deRled. There Is not a
State in the South in which the observer will
Bot be surprised to see this statement made
good. The youth of the South are naturally
Poiiticians-we had almost said statesmen.
They seem instinctively to u7dsrstand the theory
and the practice OF The Government. Their
readiness on the hastings, their skill in debate,
their chivalry, Gotten, it is true, carried to
ridiculous EXTREMIST and their eagerRess to
learn, mark them out as a rare race of men

free States. Il is true, we shall be answered
that our young men are more practical aud less
political than their brothers over the Mason
and Dixon line that they are better mechan-
les, better engineers, better sailors, better rail-
road managers, better merchants, &C. This is,
doubtless, a good part Of it, correct. But

There is a very fair reason, however, why
Southern men are excelling, as they have ex-

are compelled to know their rights that thew
may maintain them. They are taught to IN

Germs their relations as citizens, and especially
as citizens Of States continually criticised and
condemned by unsleeping enemies. They are
trained to the arena Of public debate. They
are, from childhood, induced to know fully
their own public privileges. But, whatever the
cause, they deserve great credit for superiority
in those elements which go to make up a ma
tiou'srsnown, and enter into the honorable his

how many hundreds were received every week.
But since tbs election was over these bulletins

"The paper does not support Itself. From
