Q, Jennings Wise, Esq, Of the COM
mittee, made a delicious response, ten
dering the earnest gratitude of the peo-
pie Of Virginia for the honor done by
New York to her distinguished SON.
He could not, he SAID, abstain
from some reference to the ex-
ample and memories of James Monroe.
This was no mere pageant. 1t was a
political solemnity, necessary, on occa-
sions, to preserve the virtue and pa
triotism and integrity. The 7th regi-
ment had assembled to do honor to q
fellow soldier Of New York, for James
Monroe first drew the sword In defence
Of his country and liberty at Harlem
Heights and White Plains. He re.
viewed the political career Of Mr.. Mon.
roe, his greatest error, an error o.
Judgment only, was, in the orator,
opinion, his opposition to the Fedora
Constitution. This would have beer
politically fatal to ordinary men 7; bu,
Monroe had too strong a hold upor
the affections and confidence of hi,
c~ountrymen. He was among the few
who could rise above the reproach o
poverty, although in the multiplicity
Of his public cares he had no time t.
care for his own future, and therefor,
retired from office in depressing cir
cumstances.
