Celebration of Washington's Birth Day
VERNON, Feb, eel, 1853.

At a meeting of the Vernon Literary
Association, held Feb, 1eth. the follow
ing resolution was presented by E. A.
Reed, Esq, and unanimously adopted by
the Association.
RESOLVED, That this Association meet
on the evening of the s9d inst. TO cele-
brate the birth day OF George Washing
ton, and that We hereby invite John D.
King. Esq. TO deliver an address upon
that occasion.
The specified time having arrived, the
citizens assembled. filling the Church to
It's utmost capacity, and were very hap
PLY surprised 10 find the house illumina-
ted and very beautifully decorated with
evergieens. and the name WASHING
TON and LIBERTY followed by the
thirty-one Stars and Stripes placed over
the speakers stand in the most bold and
glowing characters, a credit wholly due
10 the taste and skill of the young Ladies
and Gentlemen.
The house being callel 10 orde:. the
Secretary read the Resolution previously
adopted by the Association, showing the
object of the meeting,
Mr.. King then commenced by statiug
that he labored.under some embarrass-
ment, as the notice of the fact that he
would be expected 10 deliver the address
had been SO brief that he had been IN
able TO make The preparation that he
otherwise would have done, but 10 the
space of one hour and a hall, his audi
ence felt that such an apology was wholly
unnecessary.
He then proceeded L spread out and
display the character and career of Wash
ington, Ia a manner that eyincel an
extensive and accurate acquaintance
with the history not only Of u but o.
other countries. and with o splenGor Of
dIcton and consciousness OF thoughts, OF
which. enc far his superior in years
might well be proud, portrayed in q lu-
cid manner the results of that character
upon the prosperity and ultimate destiny
of our country.
In short the address was characterized
throughout, considering the matureness
of the preparation compared with the
length of time allowed for that purpose J
by a high degree of energy AMI industry,
which are Mr.. Kings leading traits. and
we hesitate not TO say, that the entire
audience entertained higher conceptions
of The great and inestimable worth OF
tha. one man. and went away feeling
more patriotic than they ever had before.

The letter states that the Lecompton
constitution was conceived in fraud, nur-
tured and matured in iniquiiy; and that

ss-n. nno putin operation 10 Kansas.
The writer sayszhe has always been Il
Democrat, and through all the troubles
10 Kansas has admonished the people 10
submit to the laws and seek their RENE
.dy al the ballot box; that things seem
quiet now, but that it is the calm which
.pr.cedes a mighty storm; that the Terri
tory at present is but a ~slum5eiing vol
