Eloquent Tribute Once Paid to Him by Wendell Phillips, No matter what may be the birth place of such a man ns Washington, no cllmnte can claim, no country can ap propriate him; the boon of Providence) to the human race; his fame is etern ity; his residence creation. Though It was the defeat of our arms, and the disgrace of our policy, 1 nlmost bless tho convulsion hi which ho had his origin; if the heavens thundered nnd the earth rocked, yet, when the storm passed, how pure wns tho climate that It cleared; how blight In the brow of the Armament was the planet It re vealed to us! In the production of Washington It does really appear as If nature was endeavoring to Improve on herself, and thnt all the virtues of the ancient world were but so many studies preparatory to the patriot o the new. Individual Instances, no doubt, there were; splendid exemplifications of some single qualification; Caesar was merci ful, Sclplo was content. Hannibal was patient; but It was reserved for Wash ington to blend them nil In one, and, like lovely masterpiece of the Grecian artist, to exhibit In one glow of asso ciated beauty the pride of every model and the perfection of every master. As a general, he marshalled the peas ant Into a veteran and supplied by ills- clpllne the ubsence of experience. As a statesman, he enlarged the policy of the cabinet Into tho most compre hensive system of general advantage; and such was the wisdom of his views and the philosophy of his counsels that to the old soldier and the statesman he almost added the character of tho Sage. As a conqueror, he was untnlnted with the crime of blood; a revolution ist, he was freo from uny stain of trea son; foe aggression commenced tho contestanda country called to the com mand; liberty unsheathed his sword; necessity Ftalned, victory returned It. If he hud pnused here history might doubt what station" to nsslgn him: whether nt the head of her citizens or her soldiers, her heroes or her pa triots. But the last glorious act crowned his career and banishes hesi tation. Who, like Washington, after having freed a country, resigned her crown and retired to a eottaire rather than reign In a capital. Immoitnlinan! He took from the bat tic Its crime, nnd from the conquest Its chains; he left the victorious tho glory of his self-denial and turned upon the vanquished only the retribu tion of his merry. Happy, proud Am erica! The lightnings' of heaven yield ed to your Philosophy! The tempta tions of earth could not seduce your patriotism! - SEE THE RIVETS. (TRADE MARK.)
