At tho dinner OF the New England Society,

cock made a speech, In which he thus spoke
Of the Secretary OF War;
"Nuch credit has been given to the army,
and praise without stint has been accorded BY
a grateful people to Its generals. We have
had many generals, among whom the honors
have been divided, and whose fame will live
In more enduring form than In wrcaths Of
laurel; but during the period OF our greatest
perils we have had but one Minister OF War
and during his administration substantial vic
tories crowned our arms One who has been
uneQualed In furnishing the means OF war and
placing them In the hands OF our generals one
who rivaled Carnot in all that is accorded to
him for preparation; one who never faltered
however dark the hour. And shall we moi
honor hint I knew him to be generous and
mindful OF faithful service. Among the poo
pie predict an Increasing tide OF popularity
In his favor, and that he will be one OF those
whom the country will delight to honor. Ed.
win NJ. Stanton, Secretary OF War, q model
for q war minister; in momentous times Arm,
fruitful Of resources, patriotic, incorruptible
