Thought Always of
CoNntry's Welfare

In letter to Colonel Hamilton,
delegate in Congress from the state OF
New York, Washington said: MY
wish to see the union of these states
established upon liberal and perma-
nent principles, and inclination to
contribute my mite in pointing out the
defects of the present constitution, are
equally great. All my private letters
have teemed with these sentiments
and, whenever this topic has been the
subject of conversation, have endeay-
ored to diffuse and enforce them; but
how far any further essay by me might
be productive of the wished-for END, or
appear to arrogate more than belongs
to me, depends so much upon popular
opinion and the temper and DISPOSE
lions of the people that it is not easy
to decide. | shall be obliged to you,
however, for the thoughts which you
have promised me on this subject, and
as soon as you can make 1t convenient
No man in the United States is or can
y be more deeply impressed with the
Necessity of reform in our present
confederation than myself. No man,
perhaps, has felt the bad effects OF II
more sensibly; for to the defects there
of, and want Of power in Congress,
may Justly be ascribed the prolonga-
ton Of the war; and consequently the
expenses occasioned by it. More than
half the perplexities | have expert
enced in the course Of my command,
and almost the whole of the difficulties
and distress of the army, have had
their origin here. But still, the preJu-
dices of some, the designs of others,
and the mere machinery of the ma
jority make address and management
necessary to give weight to opinions
which are to combat the doctrines OF
those different classes of men in the
field of politics."
To Lafayette he wrote: 1--WE are
now an independent people. and have
yet to learn political tactics. We are
placed among the nations of the earth
and have a character to establish; but
how we shall acquit ourselves time
aust discover. The probability is Cat
east fear it, that local Or state poll
tics will interfere too much with the
more liberal and extensive plan OF
government which wisdom and fore
sight, freed from the mist Of prejudice,
would dictate, and that we shall be
guilty of many plumbers in treading
this boundless theatre before we shall
have arrived at any perfection in this
: art; in a word, that the experience
which is purchased at the price of diff
{ ficulties and distress will alone con-
vince us that the honor, power and
true interest of this country must be
measured by a continental scale, and
that every departure therefrom weak
ems the Union, and may ultimately
break the band which holds us togeh-
er. To avert these evils, to form
new constitution that will give con-
sistency, stability and dignity to the
Union and sufficient powers to the
great council of the nation for general
purposes is a duty incumbent upon
every man who wishes we'll to his
country, and will meet with my aid as
far as it can be rendered in the private
walks of life"

Gre titude of
Congress Shown

When Washington returned to New
burg, at the close of the revolution,
he found letter from the president of
Congress, asking his attendance on
that assembly, then in session at
Princeton. The object Of this request
was to consult him on the arrange
ments for peace, and other public con-
Germs. While he was making prepara-
lions to leave camp Congress conferred
on him new honors. 1t was voted
unanimously that an equestrian statue
of General Washington should be
erected at the place where the resi-
dence of Congress should be estab-
lished, and that it should be executed
by the best artist in Europe, under the
superintendent of the minister OF the
United States at the Court of Yer
sailles.

reason. For my own part it is mat

distance Of few yards. The man
raised his gun, cooked it, pointed it at
him, and took deliberate aim; but,
without moments hesitation, Wash
ington rode into the water, seized the
PROV of the canoe, drew it to land,
disarmed his antagonist, and inflicted
on him chastisement, which he never
again chose to run the hazard of en-

Book Once Owned
by Washington

Secretary Hay has copy of Oliver
Goldsmith's Life of Shakespeare" an
early and rare edition. but it has a
greater value than its literary rarity,
in having come from the library Of
George Washington. Washington's

of his family. on which the American
flag was modelled, adorns the inside Of
the cover, and the signature Of the first
President appears on the title page. as

err officers, said he to the governor,
and, as far as | could put on the hypo-
critic, set forth the advantages that
may accrue, and advised them to ac-
cept the terms, as refusal might re-
fleet dishonor upon their character,
leaving 1t to the world to assign what
reason it pleases for their quitting the
service And again, 4 considered the
pernicious consequences that would at
tend disunion and was therefore too
much attached to my country's inter-
ests to suffer 1t to ripen.' In this way
he concealed his uneasiness, and tran
quilted the minds of his officers, al
though he felt the wrongs they suf-
fered, and approved the spirit that
would not tamely submit to them.
"As to himself it was not so much
the smallness of the pay, that gave
him concern, as the indignity and In
justice of having his services estimated
at a lower rate, than in the British
establishment, when in reality no SER
vice could be more severe and hazard
Gus, or less promising Of glory, than
the one in which he was engaged. Now

he, to drive the French from the Ohio,

THE DUST OF WASHINGTON

The tombs of Englan DIS honored dead
Are like her annals. grand;
Leaning DER Chatham's buried head,
Dropping by Nelson's trophied bed,
AS IL their hearts of marble bled.
Arts silent mourners stand.
But how my country. hast thou shrined
Thy patriot heroes dust?
Hath he in whose majestic mind
All human virtues were combined
Hath he-the champion of mankind
Carved urn laurel bust?
No-from his tomb tn unscuptured stones,
Widowed and broken, fall;
No marble warders uard his bones,
His grave nor state nor nation owns,
And he who startled Europe's thrones
Neglected lies of all.
The monuments that Nature gave
Are melting fast away;
The branches that wont to wave
Like banners, DER the good and brave,
Torn rudely from his hallowed grave,
Are speculation's prey
Conquered CORVALLIS rests in state,
So Howe and Clinton lie;
For Britain bars not glorys gate
Against cen her defeated great,
While we to him, whose sword was fate,
A fitting tomb deny.
Sons of the soil!-hei RS of the fame
Earth's purest patriot won,
Let not his memory be your shame,
The sordid ransom give and claim
The dust of Washing ton!

ty, which trust he discharged with all
the faithfulness and assiduity of a
father, till the son became of age, and
till the daughter died in her nineteenth
year. This union was in every respect
felicitous. 1t continued forty years.
To her intimate acquaintance and to
the nation, the character of Mrs.
Washington was ever a theme of
praise. Affable and courteous. exem-
plary in her department remarkable
for her deeds OF charity and piety. I'M
ostentatious and without vanity, she
adorned by her domestic virtues the
sphere of private life. and filed with
dignity every station in which she
was placed.

An even break was the best the millers
sould get out of yesterdays two games
ut Kansas City. The first game was
walkaway for the kawtown men, who had
all kinds of fun with young Sporer's
wide benders On the other hand Wilmot
and his merry men could do nothing with
Wolfe, who was showing them over for
Kansas City.
In the second game a young man by
the name of Easton essayed to do stunts
In the pitching line, hoping thereby to
Finch a job with Gears men. He came
D long ways from making good yesterday,
and when he finally was sent to the sta
BILE, Monkey Foreman was unable to save
the game.
Easton started by passing the first
three men up. Then an easy infield nit
was missed, following which Grady made
D foozle of his throw to the plate. Grant
biffed an Easton slant into the prairie,
and the amateur was retired to make
room for Foreman, who pitched a good
game.
Chapleski had the blues at his mercy
FOR six innings, but in the seventh they
opened UP bunch of trouble. and Figge-
meir was finally sent in to stem the
tide. He made good.
Phyle and Brady engaged in a rough
and tumble argument in the first game,
and both were benched. The scores:

Il does not seem to lis the duty of a
newspaper to take any sides in this
mammoth combat. Its interest lies in
the economic developments which 1t
portends. We doubt whether the public
will be greatly moved by the patriotic
bias in the purchase of their goods. A
free trade country like ours could
scarcely afford to distinguish the country
of origin in the ease OF its food, drink
or tobacco. Both parties in this case
claim to employ British workmen, and
to manufacture their goods on English
soil. It will become another matter,
if the great tobacco industries are at
any time transplanted across the
Atlantic and the market here fed
entirely by goods manufactured on the
other side. That would create sit
uation of serious import to the British
race, and requiring some defensive
policy here, If only in the cause of
self-preservatioh. But there is no sign
of that at present. The aim of the
American invaders is, undoubtedly, to
ca oture tobacco trade in this country,
and to Substitute American for the
English manufacturers, and not very
to our national pride. But it
makes no difference to the mass of the
people, who will in any case, benefit
temporarily by the energy and enter
prise of the invaders-Io Iondon Chronicle.
