    The Letters of Mr. Russell—The Poor of
America and Great Britain.
[For The Press.]
We must admit that no writer on this country
has ever wielded the influence that Mr. Russell,
Of the London Times, holds to-day- It is eat too
much to say that his letters have iutlaenced, and
continue to influence, a large share of the public
opinion of Europe in our affairs. His experience
and ability fairly entitled him to the power that he
held when he arrived in America, and many
among us think he wrote fairly and impartially, for
some months after his arrival in our country but
since his Unfortunate description of our Northern
Bide of the " Bull Run," and his omission to re
cord, then or subsequently, the Southern side of
that disgraceful day, we have good cause to regret
the character of his representations. His late
echoes to the brutal attacks upon us, by the London
press, have been so clearly disproved in the face of
all Europe by the final Ration of our Government
and the moderate forbearance of our people in the
Mason and Slidell affair, that we may hope his
future letters are to carry less weight than his past
correspondence; but I beg to call your readers'
attention to a statement of his made on the 19th of
December, and I think Mayor Henry may heve
just cause to regret that Philadelphia has such a
Sad representation in England. Your correspond
ent has visited every town in England, Scotland,
and Ireland, that has any pretension to compare
with your good city, in point of population, and,
after passing three months here, bite had the im
pression that be never met so little signs of desti
tution and want in any city, town—or village, he
might almost add—in Great Britain, as he has fount
hero; but Mr. Russell has undeceived him if the
London Times or its agents claim to tell the truth.
Our English friend writes:
" Now, es to this question of starvation, it would
be well if charity began at home. The papers of
all the large cities arc filled with' appeals' from
the friends of various eleemosynary and benevolent
eocietits and iestillttlens fur aid, in which the suf
ferings of orphans, widows, arid children are set out
in the most touching terms. Washington is tilled
with misery; nor have I ever been in any Miles
in the world in which the Irish and other
poor pepulatioes appears to live in more squalor, or
to endure greater privations than in the vile alleys
of New York itself, Pittsburg, Baltimore, New Or
leans, and other large towns of the Union. Food
is cheap eneu,sl3, no - doubt, but clothes are
.dear;
rents are high, and the accommodation inceneciva
bly ban—miserable sheds and wooden houses, with
glassless or p ank-and-paper-filled windows, admit
ting cold and wind and rain. No delusion can be
greater than to suppose the poor emigrant at once
Kendra a greater degree of physical comfort in the
States then he has in his own country; it is long
before his wages are high enough is enable him to
advance himself in any way ; and a mechanic or
laborer in any of the large towns, though he may
have higher wages, pays more for foud, rent, and
clothing than be does in Europe; and does not, in
az:may-nine cases oat of a hundred, tmprove his
social position by the doings."
Evert Man acquainted with chat country of
1 ' millionaires and paupers," (as a French writer
has justly called it) across the water, knows the
falsity of Mr. Russell when he institutes the com
parison between our population and his, and more
particularly the Irish part of it in the respective
countries. Those among es whose experience has
been confined to a knowledge of the destitution in
those parts of our cities most frequented by newly
arrived emigrants, or the absolutely dissolute and
idle part of the Irish, will not fully appreciate the
effect of Mr. Russell's statements on the people of
England. But for those who have seen, as Mr.
Eussoll has, and as many of the English • people
have, the cities of .735a1i... and Coek, or the whole
west of Ireland, his comparison carries a picture of
the Irish ie America as mendacious as it is mali
cious and mischievous. His closing statement
'should have a quotation from the Irish emigration
tables appended to it as a comment. Why ! the
aunts sent hence to Ireland, by these , Minety-nine
out of the hundred." e,hoSe condition has nor been
improved by coming here, is reckoned by millions
yearly ! ! And these tables prove that the deluded
Irish, in America, send most of the money to bring
their families (nary from - that land of milk and
honey—auld Ireland!
TOW efillllnn'd would all he required bogies your
readers a tithe of the evidence that presents itself
on every side, to disprove these statoments given to
the readers of the Times, if you undertook to print
that part of it furnished by British authorities
themselves on their own affairs; but as the force of
his attack dangled§ in its dragging our poor- to the
level of his own paupers, I beg to give you a few
quotations to illustrate in how deep a mire he
would submerge us.
Ireland first, of course. Little need bo said of
her. The official tables show that 1,230,936 indi
viduals were so far as to leave that'country
during ten years, closing witiflB6o. Mr. Russell
knows, as well as any other Englishman, that
Ireland's peueers remain there, and that her class
that emigrate irquire and possess &few pounds be
fore they can get away from their mother country;
although they. unlike the Germans, often arrive
with us destitute.
England comes on to crush us with the superior
condition of her poor ! But we are met by official
tables again of the poor that receive public charity !
There is no corner in England where there is not a
ii pauper" for every shirty-51x individuals of the
population. In that immense limit, London to
Northamptonshire, known as the " South Midland,"
every seventeenth individual receives parish relief.
In all Wales the sixteenth man, woman, and child
depends on the other fifteen, while one-foartetna
Of the whale population of the three eastern coun
ties of England apply at the poor-house (" theme . >
and are relieved !
These figures represent the position of the poor
ex
ceptional result of the severe winter of 1038 and
1861. On the contrary, the report at the end of
July of last year presented at the end of that sass
gear month an increase of no less than five per cent.
on the average of 1860! and, in fact, so far from
being a contrast to previous years, or leaving hope
for future improvement, that year's figures hold
their legitimate place in a regular scale showing a
steady increase from decade to decade in England's
1 ' pauperism."
Do these figures show all of our mother country's
miseries? Far from it! Any of us at all canner
scat with England know that the country abounds
in men and women who are devoting their lives
and means in endeavors to stem this tide of degra
dation. I have studied the subjeet, and erty opi
nion is not a sirgular one, that the private charities
of England exceed the whole of the vast system of
public relief described above ; but the evidence of
it is not of a nature that enables us to manipulate
and print it in actual figures. These good workers
are of the middle class and gentry of England ;
but we Americans know that they work in vain so
long as they attack only the sore, and leave the
patient's constitution to be doctored by the chiefs
of the Aristocracy of England. UntiL something
resembling pride can be planted in the working
classes of England their condition is hopeless.
Wheet that day arrives they will learn that thole
blood is worth something better than to be a play
thing in the hands of the Palmerstons of their coun
try ; worth something better than raising up bitter
hatreds against them among us Americans, in com
mon with all the peoples of Europe; and worth
showing that the true pride of England does not
consist in her statesman's personal vanity, illus
trated at the cost of gad suffering and sacrifice of
her own population.
When the poor of England learn to value them
selves they will be entitled to class above the
brutes, and will be valued.
Mr. Russell mentions, en passant, our crowded
populations in cities, and always comparatively
with his own country. " Two wrongs won't make
a right," and I only give you some facts about this
matter in his country, for the purpose of proving
his exaggeratien, anti to show your readers the
pictures of our cities that his comparisons carry to
his English friends.
The Tints opeeed its columns eighteen months
'Since to communications from all parts of England
on the subject of crowded cottages in the agricul
tural districts. I will only remind those of your
readers, who see the London papers, of the picture
there presented to us of Albion's virtuoue pastoral
life .! The particulars were so disgustingly vulgar
and offensive to the sensibilities of the West End of
London, that the great powers there, to this day,
have done but little towards reforming their
11 country estates' " population ; but you will find
that Lord Palmerston did, in the most praiseworthy
spirit of self-sacrifice, visit his own estate in York
shire at that time, yet was hardly able to judge as
to the improvement among his tenantry, as his pre
vious visit was just twenty-seven years before.
You'll find this fact, relative to the man who has
'sacrificed so much blood for the good of various
people of Europe, and for his own vanity, record
ed in the Times of October 31, 1860.
As a contrast to his appreciation of his duties to
his own tenantry, let your readers exaraine his
connection with Lord Minto's commission to Italy
in particular, and all his other doings every
where else on the Continent during 1847 and 1818.
&revisers arriving in England who have previ
ously heard whisperings of the Premier's theology,
think it a good joke when they are informed that
he has appointed half of the present bishops of the
Church 'of Enteral ; but it is quite true, neverthe
less, and your readers will find some of the re
eults—his bishops shearing their " flocks"—in the
yearly published reports of the London " Society
for assisting Indigent Clergymen "—pictures of
bard-hearted inhumanity that would disgrace a
Kaffir! The late Bishop of Durham illustrated
the class he ornamented, while Punch taught us
that his son-helaw was the 11 cheese" or eurutes.
To return to our mentor, Russell. Ile writes of
Crowding our cities. On the 30th of April last
Lord Derby quoted, in the House of Lords, the
official report of Dr. Lethby, of the London sani
tary committee, as follows :
".." We have, in 1,989 rooms, living 5,791 persons—a
husband, wife, and often tautor five children in one
room. Adults of both sexeslodging in the same room
—men and women herding together like savages."
To which the Earl of Shafteibury added :
"Without the 1 city' the state of matters is still
worse. In the vicinity of Cow-Cross there are four
teen courts, in which I find 173 houses, containing
586 rooms, occupied by 586 families, the average
number of individuals in a room being six and a
half ! The rooms varied in size from 15 by 12 to 9
feet by 9, and they were in all instances low, dark,
dismal, and dirty."
After giving some eight or ten other similar de
scriptions of localities, he continued :
" I would not for the world mention all the de
tails of what I have heard, or even what I have
seen, in these scenes of wretchedness. But there
are found adults of both sexes living and sleep
in in the same rooms—every social anti ovary do
mestic necessity being performed there—grown up
sons sleeping with their mothers—brothers and
sisters sleeping very often, not in the same apart-
ment only. nut in the same bed. lam stating what
I know to be the truth. and which is not to be gain
said, when I state that incestuous crimes are fright
fully common in various parts of this metropolis."
And so his lordship went on for an hour in the
name description of his fair countrymen and
ITQLIICII.
We all know that "old town" Edinburgh. Glas
gow, Liverpool, and the others, are not to be out
done by London in vice ; and if any of your readers
are curious to know how the before-mentioned
agricultural districts compare with the aides, pray
let them read an article emitted "Over-crowded
Cottages" in the Times of March 6,1861, and follow
it up in the papers of the previous winter. You
would not print them if I quoted some descrip
tions.
One result of English depravity has been that in
1860, above nine per cent. of all the births in Scot.
land were registered "illegitimate," and over six
per cent. inEngland--nothing being known ofthose
births not registered in consequence of over-sen
sitiveness on the part of parents in such eases
Meanwhile, by London official reports for five years
ending 1859, we find that sixty infants have boon
fount drowned in the "Thames" and canals near
London, and over one hundred found murdered in
du.stholes, under railroad bridges, &e. What was
the total of infithtioides in Great Britain during
those five years?
Many of us doubt our republican form of govern
ment, and doubtless it has great faults ; but God
save us from the results that have followed in
England from denying the masses of the people all
political stimulus to their pride. Only one million
votes are thrown by a population of thirty millions
in Great Britain, and one visit to an English " hue
tings " is sufficient to prove how that million are in
turn "bamboozled" into throwing everything to
the hands of some seven hundred men who
finally meet in the House of Commons. However,
I cannot hope you will find room for any more
reply to Mr_Russoll, and merely add that I trust
eel countrymen will study well the under-cat-row
of English social life before losing faith in our
own institutions and people. Finally, let me add
that in years passed in the four corners of the
world, including Kaffirland as well as Nubia, Paris
and Canton, New York and Calcutta, among many
other parts, never saw a more sad and miserable
picture of squalid want and human depravity than
the Southwark aide of the Thames presents every
evening of the year, and is fairly matched in nearly
every great city of Great Britain ; and "he who
runs may read confirmation of the truth of what
I say in official reports that Meet him at every
turn in that dark old country. X.
The Financial Condition of the Country—
[For The Press.]
MR. EDITOR : There is no question of mere vital
importance to the country, in its efforts to suppress
the present unholy rebellion, than that of its
finances, and a proper and efficient mode of fur
nishing ample means on a solid and reliable basis,
for that purpose.
We have so long enjoyed the bright sansbdne of
prosperity, that it is difficult to distinguish our way
clearly in the gloom by which we are now sur
rounded. Heretofore the Government and the
people have had ample means for all their purposes,
and a distinction was commonly made between the
money of the Government and that of the people.
Nay, we went farther, and spoke, and thought, and
wrote of the Government and the people as two
distinct, separate, and independent institutions.
We have learned, however, that the Government,
without the people, is a nullity, and the people,
without the Government, an anarchy ; and all true
patriots have determined to go heart and hand
with the Government, to the utmost extent of their
'Warta, power, and means to support the Union,
the Constitution, and the laws. In fast, the Go
vernment and the people are one ; a unit in this
and all matters hereafter, as they should always
have been heretofore, and this unity is their great
and certain guarantee of success:
Tim enthusiasm with which the patriots of all
sections of the loyal States have volunteered to put
down this rebellion is the best evidence of this
unity of feeling and determination. Upon the
very first call thousands and tens of thousands
pressed forward to offer their services, and the only
difficulty the Government experienced was in keep
ing within the prescribed limits this patriotic out
burst. And this offering was not of men seeking
employment, and needing moans of support, but
the ranks were at once filled with men from every
walk of life, many, very many, leaving business
and practice which produced independent incomes
to don the uniform and incur the hardships and
privations of a private soldier.
The patriotism that so rapidly filled our ranks
and offered to the world the astounding spectacle of
an army of half a million of man, springing forth
into being in a moment, burns no less fiercely now
than then, and it requires but the bugle-note of
war to be again sounded, and, if desired, the pre
sent army would be quadrupled in thirty days.
The freemen who are so anxious to offer up their
lives upon the altar et' • -
are equally anxious to offer up that
Which is infinitely less valuable, and will cheerfully
place their entire wealth at the disposal of the
i'llwernment—the only questions to be determined
being the amount required and the manner of
promptly furnishing it.
From the best information attainable the ex
penses of the Government, while this war lasts, will
not fall short of six hundred millions per annum—
say $600,000,000
The revenues from the usual sources
will not exceed 50 000 000
Leaving to be supplied a deficit per
annum of.
To hope for an increased revenue from the tariff,
while the country is in its present condition, is fu•
tile. - The merchants abroad, many of whom are
strangely ignorant of everything pertaining to our
people, will be chary of risking their property
among us, with this civil war raging ; and our own
people, in view of the suffering, bleeding, and dis
tracted condition of the country, have tacitly, and
almost unanimously, reduced their style of living
to the plainest basis. In fact, our own country
furnishes nil we require, and we really need no•
thing from abroad; and when it comes tit general
use to wear our own manufactures, and consume
our own supplies, we shall need no imposts, shall
have none, and, of course, the revenues from this
source must fall off materially, if they do not
cease. Already, since the duties have been so much
increased on coffee, tea, and sugar, our people
are looking round, with their usual energy and in
genuity, for substitutes for these articles. These
Were regarded as indispensable necessities, and,
being-in more general use than any other articles
in the tariff, it was supposed that an increase of the
duties on them would yield a handsome revenue.
Tbis, however, will be found a mistake. Already,
many havo substituted rye and barley for coffee,
and the latter is found a most excellent substitute.
Sorghum is extensively cultivated, and from it a
most excellent syrup has been made, fully equal to
the best molasses. The ingenuity of our citizens
has enabled them to produce a fair article of sugar
from this plant, and next year thousands of acres
will be planted with it, and from that and the
sugar maple every farm house will manufacture Its
own sugar and molasses. The woods and herb
beds will supply al the teas that will be required ;
and there will be an ample supply of all these
articles to furnish the towns and villages at a very
cheap rate. Cotton will be cultivated where it
-
will thrive ; more flax will be raised, and sheep
will be bred for their fleeces rather than their
flesh. These materials, which the ingenuity of our
people will fashion into all the necessaries if not
the luxuries of life, and the evident disposition,
almost general, to square our style of living with
the condition of our affairs, will seriously affect
the revenue from the tariff.
It is thus shown that it is idle to hope for suffi
cient means from imposts to carry on this war, and
a direct tax, to an amount that would enable the
Government to keep out of debt, would bankrupt
the nation and every one in it, unless means be
adopted for vastly increasing the circulating me
dium.
According to the census of 1800, there are, in the
loyal States and Territories, including Kentucky,
Maryland, and Missouri, 21,848,136 free persons,
white and black. To raise the deficit of $550,000,000
by a per capita tax would require each of these
persons, male and female, white and black, adult
and child, to pay $25 18-100 annually. By the same
census, the valuation of all the real and personal
property in those States and Territories ie $10,957',-
449,957 ; and to collect the above-mentioned deficit,
by taxing this property, would require an annual
assessment of a little over five per centum on the
entire amount. In view of the great proportion of
this property that is unpreduetive, it is evident this
tax (amid notLbe collected. '
If, however, it were possible to raise this amount
annually, by duties, taxes, and borrowing, can tEe
Government eollect it in specie'? From the beat
evidence we have, the entire amount of specie of
all kinds in the loyal States does not exceed
$250,000,000, or less than one-half the annual war
expenses of the Government. Great part of this
specie has already been stored away, sad will not
be brought to light till our financial affairs are set
tled upon some sure and substantial basis ; and it
would be reasonable to estimate that not more than
one-half of it'at this time could be forced into cir
culation, and probably not more than $100,000,000.
Of course, then, all the lonlante of the Government
expenditures, amounting to fonr hundred and fifty
or five hundred millions, must be paid in paper
money. All the banks having suspended specie
payments, none of their bills are convertible into
specie, and hence aro mere bills of credit, and
those bills of credit are DOW the circulating medium
of our country. Some of the banks that issue them
are no doubt solvent, and will finally redeem them,
but which are, or which are not, may be a. matter
of serious doubt in the final settleinent. This does
not deter the communities from receiving and pay
ing them out, as long es they are current ; and that
they ore current is owing, probably, more to the
ignorance of the people of the condition of
the institutions that issue them than anything
else,
The government and the people, therefore, ace
trading, not on their own credit, but on the credit
of comparatively few individuals, who may or may
not be responsible, and who can readily and speedily
shift their responsibilities to mon of straw by as
signments of their stock, if a storm should threaten
their financial horizon. Yet these men have the
audacity to ask the Government and people of the
United States to pledge Government bonds, bearing
7 6.10 per oent. Interest, as security for the redemp
tion of Government notes, or of such notes as they
may issue. It is true, 'it is proposed to issue on
those bonds some three or four times the amount
of Government or bank demandnotes ; but this is
only the entering wedge, for if this Miens° is once
inaugurated, buts short tune will elapse More
bonds will be required for every note issued, dollar
for dollar.
The account will then stand thus, to wit :
Entire amount of deficit for the that year. $559,900,000
Interest thereon, at 7 3-10 per cent 40,150,000
Total for tho first soar
Melt for the 80C0bil year..
$1,140,150,000
Interest at 7 3.10 per cent 83,230,950
Total for first and second years..... $1.223,390,950
Deficit tor the third year .... 550,000,000
44,7T:1,36004Q
IMerect at 7 2.-113 per cent. 140 458 SJO
Total far the first, second, and third
years
And so on in the same ratio.
It may be argued that the war will not lest three
years, but no finanoier should ever calculate on
such a basis. It maik last that long or longer, or it
may not, and we should make our financial arrange.
ments to provide for every contingency.
The history of the past is no criterion for the pre
sent or future, because our country has never been
placed in a similar position. When we had a
foreign war on our hands, we could borrow what
wo wanted from Europe, because our country was
united, great, glorious, and growing. But with a
serious and formidable civil war raging in our
midst, it is not likely that European capitalists will
risk their money, by investing it in our smithies,
unltss they are paid for the hazard at such rates as
will secure their fortunes and our destruction. If
such amounts of Government bonds are thrown
on the market as will be required to meet all de
mands, they must sink, probably, to fifty cents on
the dollar, or less, under-the universal le* of Sup
ply and demand regulating the market. Thus
would our debt be doubled, and the interest, of
course, would be increased to 14 6.10 per cent. on
the amount we receive. FINANCE.
Sword Pre&elitiktioit near Langley, Va.
On Sunday afternoon, Colonel R. Biddle, Roberta,
of the First Regiment Pennsylvania Reserve Corps,
was the recipient of a handsome sword, presented
to him by the non•commissioned officers and pd
vates of the regiment of which he is the indents!.
The ceremony took place at the camp of the regi
ment, a short distance beyond Langley's.
The regiment was drawn up in a hollow square,
when Sergeant Ridgway . , of Company C, advanced
and said
COLONEL : The non-commissioned officers and
privates of the First Regiment of the Pennsylvania
Reserve Corps have instructed me to present to you
this sword as a token of their respect, and of the
confidence they
. place in you as their commander.
They feel that, tit times like these, when the coun
try is distracted; when anarchy and despotism'are
dealing their heaviest blows at the institutions of
our Government, it is a St time to present it to
you. - For this purpose they have raised the sub
scriptions that have resulted in its purchase, and
now, on behalf of key fellow-soldiers, I confide it
to your keeping. And accept with it, air, the esteem
of every member of the regiment.
They feel that in more worthy and suitable hands
it could ..not be placed ; and they feel, too, that
whatever may be their lot, you will continue with
your wise counsel and voice, whether in camp or
upon the field of battle, amid the clashing qt . §4l;il
and the thundering of cannon, to encourage them
to the conflict. And when the din of battle shall
have ceased, and all the discordant elements of war
shall have pa, , sed away, and peace once more sheds
her benign influence upon our land, and we return
again to our fond homes, there again to moot our
kindred around the old hearthatelle, We Will re
member you to the last ; anti when the evening of
your life shall have come, may it be as the setting
sun—glorious and bright.
Colonel Roberts, receiving the sword, said :-
Sergeant Ridgway, and noncommissioned officers
and prrrates of the First Regiment of the Penn
sylvania Reserve corps : It has been said, my fel
low-soldiers, long ago and by a great man, that
there wore occasions when silence was eloquence.
My swellthg heart much better befits me at this in
stant for that species of eloquence than for any
other ; and if I could trust the electricity that passes
fr9ln littift to heart in a kindred baud, it would be
better, perhaps, for me to depend upon the elo
quence of that silence. But to-day, the first bright
one of many you have endured in the rain and
mud, I should forget myself did I not attempt, at
least, to say something in response to the eloquent
gentleman who has just addressed me on your behalf,
and endeavor at least to return in words, however
feeble, my sincere thanks for this magnificent dona
tion. Much as I have been accustomed to speak
for others, I find it now a very difficult
task to express my gratitude to you for this
mark of the respect, esteem, and confidence of
the non-commissioned officers and privates of
Higne gi n n h wit h al attrnei be dnif i nTmanile
us now and untried, scenes; we are sharing a sol
dier's triumphs and trials, as we hope one day to
share his reward in the approbation of our country
men.
The tone of the English and Frenohpress, as con
veyed to us in the Ajica, which arrived on Fri
day last, is adverse to our country, and is evidently
intended to revive the waning cause of the so
called Confederate States, and to reillume their
camp-fires. The news comes, you observe, by the
Africa, a most appropriate channel, it strikes me,
for comforti to the rebel gentry. The English and
French now talk of what they will and will not do,
and speak of us as they never spoke before. My
fellow-soldiers, let this imperious style but serve to
rouse us for whatever may be in the future. "Come
weal, come woo," the soldiers of this Republic will
renerve their arms and stand shoulder to shoulder,
until the last rebel has thrown down his arms and
submitted to the Constitution and the laws; and the
Constitution, strengthened by this second War of In
dependence, shall stand a monument of human wis
dom, crumbling only when time shall be no more.
1i50,000,000
My fellow-soldiers there is one thing which I
think you should let be known and heard more fre
quently. You know it and your officers know it ;
around the camp fire, and on the distant picket, and
in squads , you discuss and express it, but the
public may not be aware of it, and that is your un
faltering devotion to the commander-in-chief of
the army, the gallant and accomplished MlClellan.
When politicians discuss and assail him lut your
cheers revive and sustain Idea. I know that I but
echo your feelings and wishes, and unite with you
in declaring our unflinching determination to ad
here to him now and always, and like true sol
diers to obey and and faithfully carry out his or
ders and wishes; whether in the performance of te
dious camp and guard duty or amid the excitement
Of action triad the glory of conquest—in any and all
emergencies tee are hie and will follow him
where'er he desires to plant his country's colors.
(Col. R. was here interrupted and nine cheers were
given for Gun. McClellan.)
I have refrained, gentlemen, in the humble part
I have performed in this war from making any
pledges, and I refrain again to-day from making
any pledges, which a man may not live to redeem ;
but, there is one thing that I desire to say tv this
regiment, that, of all the tokens of public respect,
confidence, and esteem that I have ever received,
this is the proudest and the dearest. For, whoa
an-officer has the affection of those under his com
mand, he has gained a great step, and when this
weapon falls from my nerveless grasp, and the heart
that now beats in sympathy and unison with yours
is hushed forever, then, and not still then, can the
recollection of your kindness be forgotten. Through
life, "all unmixed with baser matter," shall live the
the recollection of this hour. If I aux seltoongratu
!atom pardon it, for you have made me so. If I
am proud to receive this present, it is your respect
and esteem that have made me so. And to you, air,
for the kind terms in which you have been pleased
to convey this evidence of the kindness and reg ard
of your fellow-soldiers, permit me to return my
warmest acknowledgments.
Col. 7t. retired amid prolonged cheering. Among
those present on this interesting occasion, we no
ticed Col. Simmons, of the Fifth Regiment; Col.
Bays, of the Eighth ; and Major McCandless, of the
Beoond—all of the same brigade with Col. R.—Col.
Magilton, of the Fourth, and a number of other
officers of the Pennsylvania Reserves, who all ten
dered their congratulations in person.
The sword is a beautiful one, and of American
manufacture, which speaks well for the patriotism
and appreciation of the committee who had the
mutter in charge. It was made at the Ames Works,
Massachusetts, and as a specimen of art cannot be
surpassed. The scabbard is heavily gilt, and has
engraved on it the following inscription :
