wAsHINGT0N's BIRTHDAY.

Events, fast following, have given the
g,andest wonders to our history States have
been added to the old Union of 'SS until the
number of stars upon the flag is nearly
trebled; great names and great deeds have
passed before us in quick succession con-
troyersies and struggles unparalleled in mo-
mcne and magnitude, have engrossed our
sympathies and passions, while the world has
been looking on in amazement Z; and yet un-
dirnmed and unforgotten, the name and viz
tues and noble services of our Great Wash
iagton are as glorious, as grand and as de-
voutly cherished as when his country was
younger and happier, and felt more sensibly
the effects of his influence and example.
Undying glory surrounds the name of him
who was justly styled "the father of his
country )" and the coming Of this, the an
niversary Of his birthday, finds warmly glow
ing, in millions of patriotic hearts, sense of
j oy and pride at being accounted countrymen
and Joint heirs of liberty with him who was
g first in war, first in peace and first in the
hearts of his countrymen."

GROWLING AT GRANT.

Fen Butler will never forgive Gram
70. that "bottled up" allusion. More.
over, B. B. feels sore over Grants pro.
minence as a candidate for the Presi.
dsncy. This grouty humor makes him
say some very stupid, malignant things.
Buffers spleen gets ventilation through
George Wilkes "Spirit:" and very
bitter it is-too bitter to count. The
s!apidest fault finding of which he has
been guilty is his objection to Grants
suggestion to reduce the numerical force
of the army. He deplores the existence
of times when the General-in-C Chief
shall have any influence in causing an
increase or diminution of the land
forces. "The hero of New York !"
does himself injustice. He should not
allow bis personal dislike Of Grant to
prompt him to such ridiculous grum-
biings. Nothing of Grants occupancy
OF the War Office was more applauded
by the people than the reduction insti-
t1ted by him in the expenses of the
same. Like wise commander, he now
proposes the reduction of the army to a
peace basis. knowing better than any
Lody else how much of an establish
msnt the military requirements of the
times demand, be quietly states his
views, and Butler, eaptious, talks as if
tne General wanted to arrogate to him
self the functions of Congress. Such
oemagoguery is unworthy Mr.. Butler
aud every other man who professes to
be IN earnest.
