 :: But liberal as these giftswere they are not prized by me so much for theil intrincic val ue, as for the testimony they give of the lov, which prompted them. They are mementoes of an esteem and confidence, which sprun! both from personal intercourse and publi, teachings and were confirmed amid much trial They serve IS mutual pledges to those who gave and to those who received. By their pre- sentatioa the people testify both their affec tion for us, and desire for an efficient, popu- lar administration of affairs and to us thes, repeated anl generous tributes confirm the belief that those who labor fearlsssly for Goo and the good of the masses will receive bott gratitude and support. 1 W.
