The Presid ena,s Letter.

The correspondence between the President
and Mr. Lamar is removed from the ordinary
routine of public communication by the grace
and delicacy Of their letters, and especially the
tenderness and appreciation shown in the letter
of the President We reminded in their
tone Of those between Washington and Haml-
ton, as we'll as those between Jackson and the
men whom he trusted. To have inspired SO high
feeling in the hear. of a man as resoute and
perhaps as severe as Mr.. Cleveland shows the
possession by Mr.. Lamar of rare personal traits
OF loyalty which are the reserve of true chsrac.
ter. Mr.. Cleveland in his tenderness and SINGER
ity shows the same qualities. 1t is this capacity
for strong, sincere friendship which gives the
President firm hold upon the public heart
