jefferson, was uSYGrIACIuSs regarded Dy
Washington as the strongest friend that
he had to lean upon. Il Is probable that
he revealed more Of his condolences to
Trumbull than to any other man. They
were something alike in their moral quail
tiles. although Trumbull was of Puri.
tanic riety while Washington was not,
though each Of tAom was Il religious
man.
Some fifty years ago the Ion. Learned
Hcb2rd WAS appointed executor of the
estate of William Williams. who was q
grandson Of Jonathan TRANQUIL. and
whose father was one Of the signers Of
the Declaration Of Independence In the
settlement cf tho estate Judge Hebard
came across vast amount of CORE
spondence, including letters which passed
between Washington and Governor
Trumbull. Some Of these letters were
formal business documents; others were
of more confidential nature. They re-
yealed on the part of Washington a free
dom from reserve which none Of his
other correspondence shows. One or two
of them contained that term which
Washington publicly applied to Gov
erEor Trumbull, and which for many
years was regarded G5 nickname for the
American nation, Brother Jonathan"
Some of Trumbull's correspondence
was also found. which shows that this
man Of genius and clear intellect, man
born to be Of authority himself. hid
recognized in Washington that quality
of greatness carly il the time Of the
Revolution and before he had demon
stratol it to the world. Trumbull's let
tiers, while not eXtrayagGnt, for he was
not the man to use eGtravagant terms,
indicate that TrumEull regarded Wash
ington as having been specially furnished
by Providence with those greater quail
ties. not only military, but moral, which
were necessary 10 establish the Ameri-
can nation He had almost the feeling
for Washington which Arnold had, al
though in his case there was personal in
tim&cy and almost IA cqralitv Of rcla-
ton which probably no other man of the
Revolution enjoyed.
Thus the impression and influence
which Washington created and excrted
upon these two men-One of brilliant
ability. but morally bad; the ether of in
tellectual and moral integrity and of
statGsmaniiie quality-sUggeSt how it
was that to men Of all quality the i'm
preston that lie gave was that Of great
ness, exactly as to the greatest intellccts
of this day. Like Gladstone's. the same i'm

his life. L. JAY EDWARDS.

Mr. Gladstone, in one of his chats with
Chauncey M. Depew, said that he was

Every one who has studied the mill

both sides is aware that Washington
was very greatly helped by the distrac-
tons which existed in Great Britain and
which made it impossible to concentrate
rs efforts in the American colonies
What the result would have been had
Great Britain sent a wellington com

and Washington joined in battle no man

he dismissed them with sad gesture and
only a brief word these men realized
that Washington had been shocked and

could have fought through those seven
years that he might himself attain the

1t was an act that Europeans could not

BonGparte was always inclined to be-
lieye the story purely apocryphal, al
though he was a great admirer of

his military genius than some other

They offered him the crown in but
single sentence. A few years before,
across the river. Washington. being seat
ed at breakfast, had been approached by
an officer. who said to him that Benedict
Arnold had fled after an attempt to be-
tray West Point into the hands of the
British. The news was appalling and to
Washington must have been eXtraordi-
narily painful, since for Arnold he had
personal affection which he bestowed
upon only two or three of his other Off
GERS. Yet ST. great was his self command,
so superb his capacity for suppressing
emotion. SO thoroughly had he schooled
himself to face adversely with calmness,
that those about him only saw Il look of
sad sternness come to his countenance as
he uttered the now historic words.
"WhOm can we now trust?"
But when these officers proposed to
him the empire and tried to put the
