to be present at the exercises attending the
unvailing of the statue of Daniel Webster
at Concord on Thursday next. Every
occasion which does honor to this
illustrious statesman is of extraordinary
interest to all American citizens
since our pride in his career and achieve

san influence, or by any sentiment less

such as Concord boasts, which should not

which should also keep alive through the

the work that he did will stand embalmed
in the works that he left. Time is vindi-
eating his contemporary fame And when
the distant historian shall pass in review
the illustriouS mGn of the Nation between
Washington and Lincoln, what figure
among them all will loom up so clear
and grand upon the vision of posterity2
