MOUNT VERNON.

1t IS now stated that the late visit of th
ladies of the Mount Vernon Association wn
not for the purpose Of taking formal possession
as has been announced, and for not participa
ting in which the members Of Congress wer,
very generally insured. 1t is further statet
that the Association is not compelled TO assum,
the expense connected with taking possession
until 1861. The last issue Of the Mount Yer
non Record gives highly favorS ble statement
of the financial condition of the Society. Til,
payments to Dir. Washington have all beer
punctually made, and 900 still remains
for the fund to meet further responsibilities
Miss Cunningham in her report says:
Practical men whom I have consulted or
this subject, estimate that it W i'll require from
SS. 900 to $4,000 annually to cover the ex
penses which must be incurred if Mount Yer.
non is to be kept in repair, and provided with
force sufficient to protect and preserve tho
house and grounds in security and good order
orthy their future national position Ofthis
sum, the annual receipts from visitors nav
furnish from 81 5000 to $4,000, although those
of the past year only amounted to ST .2os.25.
but the remainder cannot be safely relied on
except from principal invested so as to yield
the requisite interest. The safety of invest
nents. as general rule, is in inverse ratio to
lucrative interest If we estimate at q per cent
it would require a principal of Sl250oO to,
$4,000. AS We have $4,000 in possession.
we are already in a position to meet one of our
obligations-to restore Mt. Vernon to ,ohat Il
'0as in its palmy days We have yet to ac
qu're the $4,000 needed for annual mainten-
ance.
The question for you now to decide is shall
we take possession Of Mount Vernon without
funds, incur the risk ofincreasing indebtedness
to be.cancelled we know not how, with a vague
hope. from the future don ations of the GENE
rors and patriotic hearts which may be touched
oy annual T'teous appeals to their purse and
patrIotism-or like unselfish patriots, not
wearied or discouraged by the hard fought bat
ties Of the past, but inspired by the glorious
victory achieved, and confident of our ability
10 win new triumphs- reconsecrate ourselv es
to the work with a determination never to
pause until We reach the goal we set out for.
