It is about tin* ago of the ohlost itiltabi- tant. WasUtnjRou was a groat man. I lo was first in war, first in |»oaoo, nml first in tho hoar|£i of his oouiitfyuioii, atul belougoil to ouc’Af tho first famibos of \'ir- ginia. ^ Ho was likowisotin 1 Katherofhis (hnmtry. If ho was alive now I don’t think lu* would fool proud of his offspring. 1 tad ho still eoutinuod to rosidi* up to this time at Motjnt N ortton ho would not bo olli- giblo to a seat in (.’ongross. r riiat lovely patriot, Tlpul Stevens, would ottsign him to martial law ami dislram hiso- mont. Tho soil on wliieh ho was born, and on wliiolt his bones lost, is no longer tho land of tho free, hut orushod and dismembered; Virginia wears more galling chains than those which fell from her limbs when the last foreign foe yielded at Vorktown. Pennsylvania, whore rebellion first dis turbed the'pome of the Voting Kcpuldic, lias spawned forth an a roll malignant, a lineal descendant of tho whisky violet's whom Washington crushed, to riot in the degrada tion of the State ennobled as the birth-place of Washington. Of course you have heard of the little dog and tho dead lion. What are the glories of the past compared wit It the glories of the present ? Or of the great men of the devolution, since greater have arisen who know so much more about government and the fundamen tal principles ol rcmihlicanism. ’ ' Washington lived in this generation, lie couldn't have been a great man. One of the earliest traits of his character was his inability to tell a lie. That alone would have ruined his political prospects. As a general, he wouldn’t have done either. lie never expressed an intention ol light ing it out all the summer oil any particular line. Then we don’t hear of anybody making fortunes l>y army contracts for beef ami shoddy in his day. A republican administration never could have tolerated such a eouiinaiider-iu-cliiel. Then his farewell address would have been fatal to his reputation. The principles be enunciated would have shocked the Hadieal press, and he would have been denounced as a Copperhead. He wits open to a shspieion of free trade nrocHvilies because In* nlliliated with a I lost on party who refused to pay the duty on tea. Conseipiontly the Tribune would have been down on him. Some men nre born too soon, some too late. Washington was bom about the right time. Peoplo didn’t know so much in his day. Ur, at least, they didn’t send such wise men to Congress. People were satisfied with the Cnion under the Constitution then, entertaining a very foolish respect Ibr the Constitution without the amendments. There arc several anecdotes of Washing ton extant. One of which is about a Jlritisli sentinel who was on picket, duty one night when he saw a man—a tall man—ride by. This liriliah sentinel, who was strictly loyal U his Government, thought he would shoot the tall man. As the idea oecuared to him, he raised his gun to carry it out. Jyst before he pulled the trigger the llritish sentinel altered his mind nnd didn’t shoot. The tall man who wasn’t shot was Wash ington. lie never know it until somebody told him of it afterwards. Such was the greatness of his mind. Thero is ono other anecdote of Washing ton, never before nuldishcd, but was relat Notioo l FI1HK <fcp.rioer.hip hirriofof. enisling between J.

Little George, who was of an inquiring turn of mind, wuutcd to iind out whore tlie S lums came from, so lie took n favorite atchet that tlie hired girl used to chop kindling wood with nnd -ehopped up the tree. It took oil tho edgo of a hatchet and hacked it like a buck saw, so that it wouldn't split fine kindling wood. “Who lias done this?” said old Sir. Washington, looking around for n hickory switch to warm his offspring. “ Father,” said Georgy, with the presence of mind of future greatness, “I’m the buy who dissected that specimen of horticulture.” “ Gomo to my anus, my Son,” said tlie old gentleman. Thoro is only ono parnllol in American history to this touching story of attach ment to veracity. When Coiouol Billy Wilson’s Zouaves, of predatory notoriety, were encamped on Staten Island in. 1861, some benevolent per sons in Kow York took- up n- collection to supply tho lambs with hymn hooks and chewing tobacco. The committee, with tho funds, went down to Stateu'Island, passed through the camii inspected tho lambe in their tents, to Colonel Billy's head quarters. The chairman made a neat speech, then putting bis hand In his pocket, dis- HOmc of tho hoys have got it. Adjutant, just inquire who’s lilted tho swng (Vora tho ' old buffer in spectacles.” Adjutant went out to investigate, nnd re turned wltlin report tlml Company (J said (hoy had relieved tlie old gentleman nf the money fur fear lie might get fatigned carry ing it nuy further. “Behold,” said Colonel Billy, his eyes gleaming with emotion,!“ tlie noulllty of tiio lambs, they may steal lint they won’t lie.” Truth Is'an exalting virtue which Ameri can youth with such llliislrious examples before them ought to cultivate as one of the necessaries of life. Mrs. O’Lanus lias impressed this nnblo preeepl upon our Themisloeles. When she m enses ol him of a broken window, stinking pins wrong wily up In file chair cushions} or oilier peemlillns, she fells him lo own up, and then slip will not lick him, hut if lie denies it he will bo whipped uihlilielinl lortellllig u story. I don’t think his mterprelution of the pre cept or appreciation of tho Inducement of leniency is altogether clear. Fnriiislaucc, he frankly owned up when licensed of lirenkingthcnoso of his mother's tavniile pitcher, when subsequently Klisia .lime eonlessed that sho did it. When called upon for nil .cxplnuntion, Master Themistoeles 'fell linek upon Ills mother’s nsnurnucc that she wouldn’t lick him when ho owned up.
