length on tho early life Of the statesman,
describing infinitely his personal appearance,
ms well as the habits of his early youth.
Coming down to q later period, DIR. Loring
reviewed in mastery way tho career of
Jefferson rs q member of tho house of bur-
gesses Of Virginia. and subsequently in the
continental congress- and his preparation Of
the declaration Of Independence, contrasting
the peculiar genius Of Jefferson with that of
Hamilton.
DIR. Loring was listened to for an hour
with marked attention. At tho conclusion
of the paper, Judge Lawrence, vice president
of the society, presiding in the absence of
Judge Shellabarger, interposed objections to
the theory advanced that to jefferson more
than to Hamilton we as q people nre indebted
for the liberal government which we now
enjoy. The debate which followed was
spirited and very interesting, and did not
close until late hour, DIR. Gregory First
Auditor Reynolds, and others taking part in
the discussion. Tho initiatory meeting of
the society opened under the most favorable
auspices, and the members and friends as
sembled were unanimous in their expressions
OF satisfaction at the prospect of an enjoya-
bio and profitable season.
