last Congress What was the true pl aSe
of the timer A compromise, you remem.
berthe Crittenden proposition-was
introduced. The Southern Senators
including Beujamin, Toombs, Iverson.
and list Of others, pretended that II
the measure passed the South would be
s1tisfed, but they desired everything
but compromise. Senator Clark offer.
ed an amendment wbi,h he believed
would be acceptable to the South. had
critically kept pace with these pretend.
ers. Their protest was only to disguise
their real intentions. When the vote
was put on Clark's amendment-mark
vel, only55 ballots were recorded. The
amendment was adopted by two votes,
thus defeating the original compro
mise. Who is responsible for this work
Of destruction? Six Southern Senators
standing there and refusing to record
their votes. Ifthe Crittenden Compro.
mise had been adopted, they would have
been decrived ofa pretext for their trca.
son. Judah Benjamin, sneakinr
thief and perjurer, and an unconscion.
able traitor, was seated uear me while
the vote was being taken. l told him
1t was his duty to come to the relief Of
the country by voting on this i'm por
taut proposition. He sneeringly an
swered that "when he wanted my ad.
vice be would make the request" I.
said, you arc a Senator, and / demand
that your vote be recorded. With six
others, he contrivcd to defeat the meas.
ure by slipping out. They wanted no

How Washington Delivered his
Flrewell Address,

In the National Intelligencer, during
the year 1857, was given an extract
from letter written by lady, eighty
years of age, residing in Philadelphia,
to her grandson in Washington, dc.
scribing the scene at the drl.ygIy oil
Washington's Farewell Address. The
scene is graphically described, and we
reproduce the extract as appropriate to
the present occasion.
when General Washington deliver.
ed his Farewell Address. in the room at
the South east corner Of Chestnut and
sixth street, sat immo liatoly in trout
ofhlm. 1t was in the room the Con
Gress occupied. The table Of the Speak
er was between the two windows on
Sixth street. The daughter of DR.. =
of Alexandria, the physian and intimate
friend of Washington, Mrs. -. whose
husband was the auditor was a vcry
dear friend Of mine. Her brother
Washington was one, of the secretaries
OF General Washington. Young Dan.
bridge. nephew of Mrs Washington,
was the other. l was included in Mrs.
h---s party to witness the august, and
solemn scene. N Il declined
going with Mrs. Il, who had de.
termined to go 50 early as to secure the
front bench. 1t was fortunate for n
- c. afterwards Mrs. IL
that she would not trust herself so near
her honored grandfather. NV dear
father stood very near hsr; she was tcr.
ribly agitated. There was narrow
passage from the door of entrance to the
room, which was on the east, dividing
the rows of benches. General Washing:
ton stopped at the end to let Mr.. Ad.
ans pass to the chair. The latter al.
ways wore a full suit of bright drob
with slash, or rather loose cuff, He
always wore wrist rufles. He had not
changed his fashions. He was n short
man with a good head. With his fam.
lily he attended our church twice n
day. .
Gen. Washington's dress was a full
SUIT of black His military hat had the
black coekade. There stood the Father
OF his Country, acknowledged by mn.
tlons "the first in war, first in peace
tirst in the hearts of his countrvmcn {"
NO narshals, with gold colorcd scarfs:
no cheering. The most profound still.
ness greeted him, as if that great as.
sem bly, desired to hear him breathe and
catch his breath-the homage of the
heart. Mr.. Adams covered his face
with both his hands. The sleeves Of
his coat and his hands were covered
with tears. Every now and then there
was suppressed sob. Ieannot describe
Washingtons appearance as I felt it
perfectly composed and self possessed
tall tho close Of his address. Then.
when strong mems sobs broke loose
when tears covered their flces, then the
great man was shaken. never took
my eyes from his face. Large drons
fell from his eyes. lie looked to the
grateful children who were parting with
their father, their fiji md. ms if his heart
was with them and No Id be to the
end. '' '.|
