WASHINGTON.
Joseph R. Chandler, Esq., Editor ofthc Phila
delphia United States Gazette, lately delivered nti
address before some of the Literary Socities of
his State, which is highly spoken of, and, uo
doubt, deservedly. The subject of the dhcourse
was the grand leading principle on w.ich depends
the striking difference between the intellectual
-character of the ancients and moderns. We in*
pert the following extract from ti.e address relative
to tho “Father of his enuntw
“l placo not the name of Washington in com*
parison with those of warriors and orators of
any age. I will do no such injustice to their
fame! IIo, the father of the nation, held prc*em*
inenen for greatness nud goodness combined,
which the illustrious of any age may glory in ac*
knowledging, without u thought of envy or a
movement of emulation. Greatness, and even
superiority, are claimed for, and conceded to dis*
tingiiished men of every age, when compared
with others, but from that comparison the name
of Washington is excluded. Alone in his virtues,
and above his race in their exercise, the pre*emiu*
ence which a grateful connin' asks for its father
is acknowledged hy an admiriiig world, and noth*

go; the horizon of happiness uud fame recedos

ceive the accounts due the Republican Otlice, in

rag is denied to onr country by that world, but
the ri$ht of appropriating to* itself the name of
Washington.
“His was a fame founded on a virtue higher
even than patriotism—or that virtue might have
required of him what the good of other climes
could not have applauded. It was not the love of
soil—nor even, alone, the Io\o of those who oc
cupied that soil, that moved him. His compre
hensive mind, while it understood and resented
the wrongs ofhis country, included in the remedy
the rights of man. And when he struck for inde
pendence, he felt that though one people only
was includod in the proclaimed effort, mankind
at largo were to profit by the blow.
“ We appeal to no single field for the fame of
Washington. No one victory, no brilliant sor*
I respect, _ r
dence. A single battle, even under hit command,
might have been lost; hut the great coutest ever
tended onward to victory. No individual field
startles us with the adventurous daring of Wash
ington, while the whole Revolutionary struggle
was made successful by his cautious valor.
“Well may oar realms his Fabian wisdom boast—
“His prudence saved what braver}' had lost.
“ The eloquence of Washington was effective
from its evident sincerity; his heart went with
every word; and, as a speaker, the cahnneiu of
hiss^rle, tho purity of his diction, aud the evident
integrity of bis intention, if they did not entitle
him to the highest praise of eloquence, wrought
for tho cause that was advocated, all the effects that
eloquence could produce.
Washington exhibited many of
the highest qualifications of a military command
er; and there, too, he displayed some of the ef
fective powers of eloquence, when he retired
from tho tumult of the camp, and unheard, except
by God and one accidental listener, he invoked
a blessing upon his fellow sufferers, and dared to
solicit Divine aid UDOU the r»iw, .mm*

by private information from MilledgeviUe, that
there is but little prospect of any such harsh and
ruinous steps being token against the Banks,
the resolutions of Mr. Lewis proposed? Better
counsels begin to prevail; aud the mad spirit of
disorganization which animates a few, will be ef
fectually checked by the more dispassionate judg
ment of the majority. If nothing else can stay
their destructive hands, a sense of the injuries that
must flow to the people from so rash an act, will
no doubt have ita proper weight. Those injuries

A m.ulmion by Aid Posoy, authorizing the

The following are die resolutions:
Whereas, from die irregular position oftho

which, of course, even precludes debate on the

And yet this is the subject which our own friends
permitted dio adroitness of our adversaries to cor-

in tho Legislature no party adopts, and allowed
