THE AUTOGRAPH OF WASHINGTON
The London correspondent of the Boston Atlas, in
noticing a recent tale of autographs, says that out of
soma! hundred lots of those distinguished characters,
it is a proad fact that. on autograph letter of IVash
ington's commanded tshigher sum than any other aut
ograph letter! For example, a letter of Shenstone's,
the poet, brought thirteen shillings—ono of Dr Frank
lin's broagbt thirty thr 7 ee shillings—two letters in the
band writing of Mrs Jordan brought only seven shil
lings —sob* cue letter in that of Charles James Fox
cudy,eight shillings, and 0110 of Canning's let
ters the same sum.
Autograph, of George 11, 111, and IV, brought
from sevento fourteen shillings—and one of "Marys
the Queen," brought twenty-two shillings. Sir Wet
ter Scott's autograph brought eight shillings. The
gravid lot of all, No 100, commanded a much higher
sum. Das lot was thus described in the catalogue:—
"A. letter of the celebrated GEORG F. IV ASH' rionom,da
ied Fairfax county, Virginia, June 24, 1771." There
.was a spirited competition for this lot, which was final
ly sold for two pounds end five shillings. It is re
markable, that the letter of an American President
should command a higher sum than the autographs of
British Kings and Statesmen! This simple incident
shows, in some degree, the high estimator of Wash.
ingtou among Englishmen. _
Wooten in Office..—The new constitution of New
Jersey gives to the people in the several townships
the right to elect their justices of the peace. The
right of election heretofore rested with the Legislature
in joint meeting, end as that body was revolutionized
nearly -every other year. about every u her man had
been rewarded by a "squire's" commission. In Wood
wich township, Gloucester county, the people, in
town meeting, last week, it seems, came out unitedly
against the "Old Hunkers," and, to form afull ticket
of oarxlidates from the people, took up two very re-
PrsitMe maiden ladies, Sally Brown and Bet-y
d%
, and voted them in by a triumphant mnjority.
