Washington Not q Radical.

In his younger days Washington
seems to have been something of a
political idealist. His Imagination was
full of the romantic virtues which poets
ascribed to the ancient Romans. and
he expected to find them repeated
among the colonial statesmen. Sad ex-
perience caused him to lower his hopes.
He lost the belief that men would con-
duct themselves properly without re-
straint. my opinion of public virtue
Is so far changed that l have my
doubts whether any system. without
the means Of coercion in the sovereign.
Will enforce due obedience to the or
ders OF the government" This was
one Of his condolences TO Madison be.

A Lafayette Gift
To Washington

THE Marquis de Lafayette was
the commander of the French
4 national guard ut the time of
the destruction of the Bastille
and he directed and assisted in raZing It.
The key fell into his hands. and few
months after the demolition of the
prison he sent it by Thomas Paine.
who was in London at the time, to
General Washington. Lafayette at di.
vers times presented gifts to Wash
ington, whom he adored. The CORE.
spondencc between the Frenchman
and Washington in regard to the key
is most interesting.
Lafayette wrote: "Give me leave, my
dear general, to present to you pic
ture Of the Bastille as 1t looked few
days after | ordered its demolition,
with the main key Of the fortress of
despotism. 1t is tribute which owe
as son to my adopted father. as an
aid-de-camp to my general. as n mis-
sionary of liberty to its patriarch
In reply Washington said: Il have
received your affectionate letter of the
18th March, 100. by one conveyance
and the token Of the victory gained by
liberty over despotism by another, for
both which testimonials of your friend
ship and regard | pray you to accept
my warmest thanks. In this great
subject Of triumph for the new world
and for humanity In general 1t will
never be forgotten how conspicuous a
part you bore and how much luster
you reflected upon country In which
you made the first displays Of your
character"
The picture mentioned was a pen
ell sketch and hangs beneath the glass
box containing the key In the old hall
at Mount Vernon. 1t attracts invari-
ably the attention Of the visitor to
beautiful Mount Vernon, which Is a
storehouse and treasury Of Washington
relics.
In his French Revolution" Carlyle
refers to the taking Of the key across
the Atlantic to lie on Washington's
hall table, and In giving the number
killed at the capture of the building
| (eighty-three of the besiegers and one
Of the besieged) he adds, "The Bastille
fortress. like the city Of Jericho, was
overturned by miraculous sound"
