OF Hamilton, Mr.. Choate said:

The public life of Hamilton closed
with the fall of federalism. The same
wisdom, the same American feeling and
love of country characterized him as did
Jefferson. Nobody calls in question the
stupendous ability with which he assist
ed to frame the administration of the
government, restored order to its fnan-
ces, gave support to our credit, and i'm
pressed upon us to be impartial when
our first friend had become Il republic
and our first enemy was fighting her
AS lawyer he was wise, safe and
just, and took rank as the leader of the
bar. Mr., Choate mentioned instances
of Hamilton's uprightness iii profession
al dealings, and spoke Of his defence If
Croswell for libel, i'll 1904 as his master
piece, and as nearly the grandest dis
play of the bar-one which is mdeibly
inscribed on the written and unwrtteu
statutes of America.
There and then, in that argument, he
graved on our public law, as with peu
Of steel upon an obelsk fronting the sun,
the doctrine that truth, from right mo-
tives and for justifable ends, may be
safely written on anybody, high or low.
He was thorough and deep reasoner,
and his eloquence was singularly pow
erful. Hamilton's labors, as the editor
of the Fcderalist, and the remarkable
precociousness of his intellect were spo-
ken of. He began to speak at the age
of eighteen, and at that age was among
the ablest of our writer's in the great
controversy with England. At twenty
four he wrote that masterly letter to
Duane, anticipating the provisions of
the Constitution at thirty-two he wrote
fol the Federalist, and at thirty eight he
ceased to be public man. Saving
Paschal, Caesar, and Napoleon, it is
doubtful if vaster or purer powers have
been exhibited by man.

Mr.. CHoATE's LECTURE.-At the

Boston Mercantile Library Association,
on Hamilton and Burr. is reported in
the Boston Courier, from which rer ort
we make few extracts. The charac-
ter of Burr he summed up as follows :
But how few there are like Burr
When you have enumerated Cataline
and his associates, Cicero and his enemy,
Sallust, Alcibiades, Borgia and Machia-
vel, you have enumerated all who most
resemble him. He may have loved his
daughter, and kept some friendships,
but he had no regard for the spirit of
humanity, or for any solemn plausibillty
of life. He spared neither man in his
anger, or woman in his lust, nor the
Union in his ambition Stat nominis

Low Doacn.-Judge James Madison
Crane, the shirtless representative of
Carson Valley at Washington, has been
using his tremendous influence with the
administration in procuring the removal
of post master in Carson Valley, the
net proceeds of whose office amounts to
twenty-five dollars year The ad-
ministration was low enough down in
the estimation of honest men, already,
but what must be its depth of degre-
dation to receive counsel from such a
fellow as Crane! Ye gods, has it come
to this?
A wag at our elbow suggests that
Crane once belonged to the old Wing
party and aspired to nomination to
Congress from that quarter.

MAN DRowNED.-Coroner Bailey
held an inquest on the 4th inst. on the
body of one John Brown, who was found
by Mr.. Jillson forced under a dam on
Bear River near Trcble's Crossing
The evidence produced before the cor.
oner's jury showed that Brown called at
Treble's and obtained bottle of milk
and two of whisky on the 23d of March
Since that time nothing more was seen
or heard of him till discovered by Mr..
Jillson.
The supposition is that whisky, milk
and Bear River water didn't agree with
John Browns constitution.

While it is the most powerful antidote yet known
to man for the most formidable and dangerous

pleasantest and safest remedy that can be en-
rloyed for infants and young persons. Parents
should have it in store against the insidious en-
envy that steals upon them unprepared. We have
abundant grounds to believe the Cherry Pectoral
