SUGGESTION TO SENATOR HAMIIN.
In window on Exchange street is di- PLAYED |
an engraving Representing Daniel W+b-itr'- |
delivery of his great speech in ihe United States
| Senate, March I, 1870, Oh The Union and the |
constitution. Among the figures at the left sits |
Senator named in the key H. Ilamlin." The |
! plcture suggests the reflection thar Senator |
N.
The fashion: but then he never cared much for |
fashion anyway, as his traditional -waliow-tail |
and contempt for overcoats attest. None the |
less. hr might produce an interesting and yaiu- |
able work. He is one of the best preserved of |
the ancient men who have come down 10 H.
| from former gent ration. His bodily and |
mental faculties show little sign of decay and |
he can beat many Younger mau on the stump |
! even now. No living man probably can par |
atl his public experience. Webster has been |
! 30 long dead that ne seems almost remote as |
| Washington; yet when he died Mr., HamIin had |
| petn IN Congress ten years already. Among |
| those seated in the Senate chamber when Web |
sler delivered his speech. were Clay. Ca>~, Cal |
| noun, Benton, Salmon Z. Chase, Stephen A. |
| Douglas. Thomas Corwin and others who have
| become mighty memories. Mr.. Hamin no
| doubt has plenty of rich material in HE store
house of memory. Now i th- time to make
use of it. lie should begin the work, if hcshas
| moi already done so. Portland Advertiser.
