Terms easy. ty, the author of the bill of rights of Virginia, B. CUTHBERT A SON, 81 m ar k e t s t re et. the orator and the, sage, whose vision was so THE DAILY POST. THURSDAY MORNING We troika the following extract from Senator Ilontr's oration, delivered in Richmond, on the 221 inet. We have rarely met a more eloquent or finished effort.:— It is a duty, then, which Virginia owesto him, to herself, and to her peSterity, to tell the great story of his life in ell the forms in which it can reach the hearts and minds of men. Let it be told in the graceful numbers of the poet ; let it be carried Sown in the everlasting traditions of history ; let it be imaged forth in the highest impersonations of the painter's and the sculp tor's genius. There is a great moral in that story which ought to be felt by every human heart, fur it is the story of one who alone, of all the great rulers of men, has proved by a consis tent example that in the midst of temptations and the most seducing opportunities for the gratification of a selfish ambition he preferred the duties of life to its pleasures, its power, and even to life itself Let, then, Virginia on this, his natal day, raise the effigy of her noblest son before the eyes of admiring men ; and who shall blame her if some touob of maternal pride should be mingled with the tears of pions regard which she may shed for him who was the world's great paragon for all that is sublime in public virtue and all that is patient and brave .in the human soul" She this image not to re fresh the fountains of her grief, not to take tribute from human s.)nipathy for the soul's deep wound, not to express the sad sense of bereave ment in whatever form of utterance may be most enduring; but she this day elevates it in face of the world to consecrate his memory is the hest affections of every heart, and to dedicate his name to the great cause of humanity, and as a me:ninon poFisess.len to all mankind. This is no idle ceremonial of grief which we celebrate to day ; but a State is inaugurating with a rever ential sorrow which such greatness may inspire ia even a mother's heart, the influence of perhaps the highest human example, which iS to be as wide as the world iu its operation, and to coin-, wand love and sympathy from every human heart. Long then, may yonder expressive bronze continue to speak its lessons of virtue and wisdom to each succeeding generation of man. Let the mother bring her boy hither that she may teach him in this presence as his earliest lesson so much of the great story of Washington he may be able to appreciate and comprehend. Let the aspiring youth whose ambition, like Ciesar's, may have been fired by the study of ex amples of early successes so much greater than his own, pause to behold that calm face and con sider its associated story of patient fortitude and noble perseverance. Or should he, in his eager ne'ss for tame, find that he - is in danger to prefer the prizes of ambition to goodness, let him pur -1 sue that story to its conclusion, and learn that it was NVashingtou's unfaltering loyalty to duty and faith in virtue which endowed him with an itainost superhuman strength, and made his name imuacria among men. is it a man of maturer years who, diappointed his aspirations and misconstrued in his best loi noblest efforts for his race, begins to grow weary in the struggle and to despair of achievs in.!, anything great or even good, let him consider how sternly the great soul of which that statue :peaks was tried, and with what courage and t nth it parsed through the fires of a consuming strife, until every difficulty was surmounted and it stood purified and annealed by the fierce or deal to which it had been exposed. Who amongst us :ill might not gather from his meditations, in this calm presence, precious lessons for the guid ante and direction of his future conduct? Here, then, is The/ genius loci" which should invite the uu.versal pilgrimage of mall, for all:its influ enoea are sacred to th, great cause humanity it self ',reached by the inspired hand of human genius, that mute bronze pours forth its full tide f livtu associations, which, like water from ti.e rock of Horeb, may refresh the soul of him whose h pee and strength are failing under the te,lsoine, and, it may be, the sad experience of his devious journey through life. This statue is not merely a monument to Washington, but an altar erected to Heroic Vir tue itself, before . Li. , human heart may purify its own aspiratio,t, under the chastening influences of the great example of the Father of his Country, and upon which it may sacrifice every wild or mad desire that may be adverse to th country's good. A:1 yet this monument itself will pay away when time, with slow corroding tooth, shall have dissipated, atom by atom, its consecrated dust. But when all its particles, fugitive on the winds, shall have disappeared from , human view, there will still survive the monument which Washing ton's own genius has erected for itself, for there is a promise in which we all confide, that the good which men do shall live after them. How much of all that we admire in human achieve ment must lose its influence in the end, because 11 is founded in ill! The very process of its progress dissipates it at last, for the circles of its impulse grow fainter as they grow broader, until they finally disappear altogether on the face of the great ocean of life. But the good which men do in this life, and especially such as Washington achieved, shall live always as an efficient cause and a permanent influence in the progress of human affairs. The foot of the spoiler may trample down for a while what is 'est in the garden of life, but heaven, soon or late, will send its rains to wash out all traces of the step. Its tempered Mrs will visit the germi nating seed, its genial light will guide the up ward growth until by a full - development of leaf and flower, and fruit and seed, it has not only completed the course of one charming circle of existence, but provided for the reappearance of another. The work of him who planted the good seed shall live long after all traces of the destroyer shall have been lost and forgotten. lf, then, the good which men do be the charmed seed of life, which must increase and multiply in the successive processes of a continued repro tithe-inn, who shall affix limits to the growth and existence of that which Washington planted as L. Montgomery, Itic Lard Shields, William imburue, Uapt. Mark Starling, Samuel M. Kier, John S. Dilworth, Francis Sollars, William B. Hays.

John Marshall is to constitute another figure in that great group, he whose qualities of head and hea'rt were bestowed by Nature as if she were trying her most cunning hand to constitute a perfect ju dicial character. Unequal in learning to Coke or Hale, or Hardwicke, or Mansfield because he had fewer opportunities to acquire it, he united the character of Hale to ..the genius of Mansfield, and found in his own resources those means of mastery for which they wore so largly dependent on the assistance of others. Patrick Henry al ready stands there, a, commanding figure in the group, the "Homer of orators," .whose mighty voice comes ringing down with the ages to star tle the most listless of human ears with thOse watchwords of civil revolution and progress, "Give me liberty er give me death!" And yon der contemplative figure—who needs to be told that it is Thomas Jefferson, the most intrepid thinker and the greatest political genius of his day I—a man who was capable of committing himself, like Columbus, to the winds and the waves in pursuit of his own great idea, and of persevering until he discovered now provinces of thought, and found firm ground for the human mind beyond the uncertain seas whioh others had feared to pass before. Still the representation of the revolutionary family of Virginia is far from complete. The statue of George Rogers Clark, like that of Bru tus, is missing. The Lees and the Randolphs, Madison and Monroe, 'eapientum que orapr iorum' might well constitute another group of kindred greatness to these. May a long succession of sOch chapters of monumental history continue to tell the tale of Virginia's greatness and glory ! FEBRUARY 25 But I must not close this address without ono word of affectionate adjuration ,to thee, Vir ginia, and bidding you all hail, oh, most glori ous mother ! Take us, thy children, with thee td the tombs of your mighty sons, that we may learn from your meditations something of the se cret of your ewn great heart. Does it occur to you, as you bend in Borrowing pride over these monuments of your dead, that perhaps the wiser part was taken by the daughter of Scipio and the mother of the Gracchi, who refused to bear more children lest she should be shamed by the comparison of the younger with the elder born? Is it the. secret question of your bosom, " Quid faciurzt stemmata?" when you contrast your pres ent with your past? I pray you, by all the love we bear you, to harbor no such reproachful sug gestions in your bosom. The wealth of your achievementa,may lie in the past, but never was a mother richer in the affections of her children. Every drop of your waters and the very dust of your soil are as dear to them as if they bore'tlre charm of life itself. Your great name and its associations constitute the fascinption and the spell which call up . the deepest emotions of filial love and pride in the hearts of your children. They may not add to the lustre of your name, but they will preserve and defend it against reproach and disgrace. They no longer bring curule dig nities to your house, nor do lictors and fasces mark their approach to your door, but they bear you what, after all, is the richest treasure and best defence of a State—the loyalty and devotion of a united family which knows no higher reward than a mother's love, and no prouder object of ambition than a mother's glory. Permit me, then, to say,if the love which inspires it can ex cuse the presumption of the advice, that if you wish to renew, in scone future generation, the glories of your mighty line, you must be true to Yourself, to the traditions of your past, to the long established principles of your public policy and the peculiar genius of your people. For how long did American civilization follow the line, of their camp fires as your pioneers passed through the wilderness? Why may there not spring up again within your houshold the lights which may lead to a higher culture and to ahap ' pier, a more refined and a more powerful combi nation of the social and individual elements whose proper organization constitutes the strength of human government? I believe, in my soul, that such would be the results of the faithful and further application of the principles of your own great school. Equally firm is my conviction, that the lights which should direct that application aro to be found in the lessons which have been taught by your own sons, whose teachings have in them more of prophetic wisdom than all the leaves of the Sybil. Such are the achievements which would place Virginia amongst the States and nations of the earth, where WASHINGTON, her own illustrious son, stands amongst men—the world's great paragon the cynosure of his race.
