ture. Butyout Of all these fiery trials. comes the
pure gold, increased in value ten-fold because of
the ordeal through which it has passed. We
have many instances on record, proving that
his nature was early aud thoroughly imbued
with that most golden of all virtues-truth, and
that in the mint Of affection he was no bank-
rupt. That his heart was encased in patriot
ism, is evident-else the proffer of yiceroyshiP,
with any amount of money, by Lord North,
after he had become weary of furnishing men
and money to carry or further war against the
Colonies, would have met with different re-
ception-hut "neither Lord North nor the King
of England was rich enough to buy" our WASH
ington.
Again; the incorruptible gold shone forth in all
its lustre, when the time arrived to disband the
armies which were destitute of even decent
clothing, or cent of money in their pockets
They were informed that Congress could give
them nothing of their dues. terrible com
motion ensued, in which they would gladly have
then and there hurled Congress into oblivion,
and have placed their loved Cheftan upon its
ruins as King. But his eye was not dazzled by
any false glory of this kind-neither did he
bend to their murmurings, though ever so just
they might seem-but he went studiously to
work to reconcile them to bear for the present
what indeed seemed heavy burden; that OF
present poverty, with little hope of future re-
ward. But who, we would ask, can read the
record of the wisdom and prudence, the love
and patience with which Washington wrought
for his country during his Presidential admins
tration; and his farewell address-whcre in the
wide world is to be found such another docu-
mentf 1t is in itself mine of gold, into which,
if our wise Legislators would dig more deeply,
they might find rich reward for their toll.
In conclusion, we would join in the universal
homage which will this day be rendered to the
name of WASHINGTON. Greatest he stands,
among the sons of men. This, oh shade Of
Washington! is thy famo-aud it will be

The DESTINATION OF the Thirty MILLIONS
Some of the administration prints are telling
their readers that the thirty millions of dollars
which Mr.. Slidell asks for Mr.. Buchanan will
not be wanted il Cuba be not purchased by our
government. Vote the money, they say, and il
Spain will not sell Cuba it will never be drawn
from the treasury.
There was never a more bare[aced misrepre-
sentation than this. No falsehood invented to
be circulated on the eve of an election, with 4
design to produce an effect before those who
were prejudiced by it could follow it up with a
refutation, was ever Of grosser character.
In Mr.. Slidell's report to the United States
Senate in favor of the BILL he does not anywhere
pretend that the money is to be paid for the
island. He talks of it as the "means Of nego-
tiating" for the island. 1t is grant of money
to be expended as preliminary to the purchase.
On the eleventh page of his report he says:
"This bill appropriates thirty millions of dol.
lars to make a tredty with Spain for the pur-
chase of the island of Cuba"
Not to pay for Cuba is this money to be
granted, but to make the treaty. When Mr..
Buchanan is called upon to account for the
money, his report will be-for everybody knows
that the island will not be sold-"I did my best
with the large sum you so literally put into my
hands. employed agents, both American aud
Spanish, in the island of Cuba and in the moth
er country, at Washington, Havana and Madrid.
l hired the most etfcctual tools l could find in
the market, and if the island is not for sale it is
not my fault"
One of the grossest features of this affair is
the shamelessness of the bribery it contemplates.
We justly hold that he who offers a bride is a
sharer in the guilt and shame Of him who takes
it. The law puts him who hires ruttian to
commit murder on the same footing with him
who performs the deed-the tempter is respon-
sibe for the sin of the tempted, and bears its
disgrace.
But bribery is always private affair between
the paities-it covers up its traces in secrecy
Mr.. Buchanan cannot bride and tell. He must
not give the names of the people in Cuba and
Spain whom he has bought with the thirty mil
lions.
This necessary condition of the transactions
preliminary to treaty, gives the person inter
ested with the thirty millions the broadest
latitude. We put into the hands of Mr.. Bu-
chanan, if the Sldell bill be passed, money
which he cannot in decencY account for money,
the uses of which, even by the rule of honor
among thieves, he cannot disclose. In other
words, we give him an open warrant for expend.
ing it just when and where he pleases, even for
the most shameful purposes of personal emolu-
nent or ambition.-Neto York Post.

"ProsrEn," of the Philadelphia Pres, has

"ProNEER," of the Philadelphia Press, has
the following bit of Presidential gossip:
The late speech of the famous Bolts on the
Presidency elicits considerable discussion among
the Opposition politicians, that they are begin
ming to pull such wires as they suppose to be
best calculated to advance the prctensions Of
their respective fsvorites Seward has many
active and devoted adherents, but his nntago.
nists pronounce him unavailable. Cameron is
urging his pretensions with his accustomed
pertinacity and adroiIness; but the great queS-
ton among these political operators is, how the
Opposition force OF the North and South can be
united. Bolts threw out the idea that the NOM
nation of either Bell, of Tennessee, Crittenden,
of Kentucky, or Butes of Missouri, would
be acceptable to the Opposition party of the
South, and it is possible that one OF these
three gentlemen may be successful in attain
ing joint Republican and American nomi-
nation. Messis. Crittenden and Bell have
long occupied prominent positions before the
nation, and have been fully committed on
most of the issues that have agitated the coun-
try for the last twenty years, while Bates has
been in comparative retirement; so that, If n
mere available, negative man is to be chosen,
the prospects of the latter are by no means
hopeless; and his supposed sympathy with the
emancipation movement in Missouri would go
far to recommend him to the Republicans of the
North. if they arc compelled to sacrifice their
more active and efficient leaders.
Meanwhile considerable significance is at.
tached to the contemplated demonstration of
Mr.. Bolts, on the 22d of February, in New
York. That he is an extraordinary man no one
can doubt, and that he has made a strong i'm
preston upon the country, especially upon the
Opposition party, il clear. He has labored
with indomitable zeal and industry to improvise
new party out of the materials floating around,
and many here think that he would himself
make formidable candidate for President for
the Opposition. Not a few of the Opposition
leaders, here and in the South, think that he is
destined to make ten strike.
