Hon. F. Carroll Brewster addressed the President,
saying that It was with a feeling of melancholy plea
sure that he undertook the solemn duty of paying a
last tribute to the memory ef JVIr. btanton. His pro-
fcssioi.al career through its whole history, from
his first appearance at the bar of the western

AddrrK by Dante Dougherty, Keoj.
Daniel Dougherty, Esq., made the following ad
dress :
1 beg to bo allowed to lay a garland on the grave
of the great, man. Though never enjoying auy par
ticular intimacy with Mr. rjtanton, I yet can say I
knew him well for eighteen years. Now that he ha.
passed from earth, thore rises In my memory three
periods in his career, each distinct and vividly
marked from the others. When I first met hira he
wus In the glory of yonng manhood. He was among
the leaders of the liar of Pennsylvania, duvotod to
his profession, with no aspirations beyond It.
Political (tmhltlon wus farthest from his thoughts.
He came here la Philadelphia to attend the court of
which you, venemted sir, are now the honored chl'!f,
and the profession must remember the splendid
arguments ho made before that, our supreme tribu
nal. . I first heard blin. I believe, In the case of tho
Pennsylvania Hull road Company against the Canal
Commissioner", reported In 9th Harris. The an
nouncement Hist (Stanton was to speak crowded
the court, aud all were amply repaid for their
proseriM'.
The clearest and closest argument waa clothed In
sentences each rouud and perfect in Itself. I have
never heard a legal argumeut display moro scholarly
taste. While the Hencb. and the Bar listened with
rspt attention to his learning and logic, the
i Idle ywnenf were captivated by Ills imposing pre
letce, Us impressive delivery, and tho thorn hts that
u,nu ,u i-i- poa.ucu pciiiMia. ataiiy believed that
every word had been written out and ooinmltted to
memory. Hbortly afterwards I saw bit" In a cele
brated trial where he exhibited eijual ability before
tbe Jury.
Team passed away, and ftlantoa became nMtns-
man. One of the highest seats tn the Cabinet was
enriered him not through the tricks and manage
ment of scurvy politicians, by no act of bit own
for his proud and lofty soul would not stoop to any
Indirection. He was called to the Department of
ar from the confidence rt-nosed In his patriotism,
Integrity, and executive talents. From the day he
entered on ma duties nis whole aoai and brain were
absorbed in his gigantic task, as herculean as ever
fell to the lot of mortal. How he labored night and
day through the weary years of the war the world
can never know; for history will In vain endeavor to
telL To him more than to any single man we owe
the triumph of our Government aal the downfall
of treason.
He it was who fora-ed the thunderbolt onr armies
hurled against our foes, and which tn the end scat
tered aud shivered them as the lightning amvers
wnere it strikes, ills warmest frieuds cannot neny
his faults, but they were the fallings of an affirmative
nature a nature that scorned dissimulation. He
has erred In bis Judgment, but this only showed ne
was a man. He was imperious and self-willed at
timer, but never to the lowly and poor. He was cold
and Impenetrable In the dlscharsre of duty- but If he
was cruel tn Individuals it waa only to be kind to his
couitry. He waa austere tn manner, yet I have seen
mm iimcii to tne story or a poor mother pleading tor
her ton, and the prayer was granted before the
Heading ended. lie rarely tasted the joys of social
ife. yet I have known him to unbend for an hour,
and in his mirth as merry as a boy.
This one fuct should wine awav all remembrance
of his faults, and stand to his enduring honor that

and died a poor man.
Once again I saw him. The war was over and he
had ceHHtd to be the Great Minister. He was a
private cltlr.cn. The change in Ills station was less
startling than In the man. He was to my eye a
wreck, not even the shadow of his former self, ins

mistress, who required and repaid the most
absolute devotion. Again, his firm resolution to
carry out whatever men tire he believed in his heart
to be right and just. And in addition his most
agreeable manner gave him a power with the Court
and over his ad versaries. These qualities and many
others constituted the great man's power, which
was so forcibly felt during his lie, and the effects of
which will ever remain a monnment to his worth.

Washington, Jan. 3 Tbe public debt state

debt of four millions during, tbe month. Tbe
gold balance In tbe Treasury Is t!09,000,000;
outfctanding gold certificates, $40,000,000; cur
rency balance, 12,700,000.
Judge Uasrasd the taaremo C'enrU '
Tbe friends of Attorney-General Hoar are
urging tbe President to nominate him for tho
vacancy In tbe Supreme Court created by tbo
death of Mr. Stanton, on the ground that ho was
defeated on account of location. Hoar's friends
are anxious to test tbe point whether It really
was location that operated against him in the
Senate. Tbe President has not determined what
action he will take in the matter, and will await
the return of Judge Hoar. Penusylvanlans are
protesting against Hoar being Stanton's succes
sor, and claim that the place belongs to their
State.
Cuban Advices
Despatches received here by the Government
from Havana make no mention of the reported
surrender of the insurgents, and it Is not credited
in official circles. A leading member of the
Cuban Junta, now here, pronounces the story a
fabrication, and io Informed the President
to-day. It is supposed the story was put out by
tho Spanish authorities to counteract the pro
posed recognition of the Cubans by the United
States.
The Peabody Remains.
Admiral Porter has made, calculation of tho
time it will take her Majesty's ship Monarch to
reach Portland with the remain of George Pea-
body. If she comes by the Azores Islands, (top
ping there four days, and thence direct to Port
land, making 200 miles per day, she will arrive
January 7. If she comes by Madeira Islands
aud St. 1 homas, stopping there four days, she
will reach Portland on the 25lb.
Should ehe encounter trade winds on the latter
route, she will arrive three days later. Of course,
this calculation supposes that she will make two
hundred miles every day. If she makes but a
hundred and fifty a day, it will take her till tha
first or middle of February.

A Costly thorrh Nteenle Hlown Dows by the
Keceut Gale.
The Trenton GcuetU of this morning has the fol
lowing: We have alluded in another brief Item to the
violent gale of wind that prevailed last evening.
Shortly after penning it we learned or lis disastrous
effects In demolishing the steeple of the Fonrth
Presbyterian Church, on the corner or state and
Clinton streets, lv tell with a terriflo crash at a
quarter past 7 o'clock, Just as the congregation were
assembling for the evening service, aud its ruins
litter the sidewalk on Clinton street for a hundred
and fifty feet. It is almost miraculous that no one
was killed or Injured, as persons were entering the
church almost in a steady stream, and a
paity of ladles heard it crack and snap
as It was broken loose by the violent
gale, Just as they entered the door. It was also
fortunate that it did not fall on the roof of the
church, for if It had, the whole top of the church
would have been crushed through on to the heads of
the people who were assembled within, and a terri
ble loss of life would no doubt have ensued. The
scene of the wreck shows with what terrible force
the heavy mass of which the steeple was composed
struck the ground. The heavy timbers are broken
into numerous fragments, the flag-stones broken,
and the heavy iron fence which skirts the sidewalk
twisted and bent Into all sorts of shapes.
This steeple was perhaps the handsomest and
most costly in the city, and was two hundred and
twelve feet high. It will cost a large sum of money
to replace lb
Down About half-past six o'clock last P. M., the
