St. Peter's. • The ascent to the cupola is, as
we have already observed, of the easiest des
cription, beingnearly an inclined plain. From
the cupola alone we can have a true. idea of
the ittunthise extent of St. Peter's. Tile four
teen figures orthe Apt - titles, our Saviour, and
St. John the Baptist, which, front the piazza,
appear to be of the ordinary height, are in
reality, nearly 20 feet high. On the roof live
those workmen who are employed in the re
pairs of the buildings, for a large suMor mon
ey is spent every year to keep the Basilica in
its present state. From the interior of the
cupola the view or the church is really decep
tive. What appeared to you so large Ind so
wondrous is now dwindled away to almost
nothing. yowseem to be-in the church trium
phant, raised above the things that have once
appeared to you so wondrous-- and- so great

Beneath you is the tomb of the Apostles, and
its wondrous canopy, which now appears to

St. Paullh the Mamertine prison, appear to
you still smaller; you recognize the power
of religion which hits 0111100'01e sins of thoite

An hour of the afternoon of the same day
I left- you, 1-way- with Rembrandt. Peale—l
might almost say'atillour with Gbneral George
WaShingiOn. This venerable artist is now 87
years of age and is the only Ilving-artist who
painted Washington from life; .this he done
when but 17 years of age... Washington sat
expressly for him. lie. prevailed upon his
father to paint another of Washington at the
same time by his side. Washington was then
President of limo Union. and resitled in Phila
delphia, lie,gtivc_Mr. Peale three sittings of
three hours each. :Mr. Pvalit's father painted
'Washington Many times', and Washington was
very much attached to him, he eminuanded a
.company from Philadelphia and wits in . the
battle itf Trenton. Mr. Peale, ,slioried me a
letter 'writ ten by Mrs Washington to his fath
er. relative to some miniatures of Washington
he had' pointed; giving him some directions
about getting them set in bracelets for her,
which he did Thiiletter was ,very. interes
ting to me, not so' much fierhaps . for• its con
tents as tliat.the veritable letter itself was the
chirography of. Martha Washington, the sante
paper upon which her fingers'prestied;on which
she looked'and wrote ; my venerable •friend
seeing how much interest I felt for.it, said 1!e
would have ittione in foe simile, b y a perfe ct
copyist, rind send it to me.
When I
. arrived at the, house of the artist, I
was ushered into the parlor, allfiung with the
choicest , specimens of his skin Ip.three .quar
ters•of.a century. Soon 1 40nryth?,aged yet
vigorous foot-fall of Mr. Fate 'J s ounding the
stairway ; after'; he first greeting stay not
here,
.but com p ,' go up with me to my studio,"
—up we went till the clear blue light of the
zenith shown on hit; white locks, around the
brown walls, and over finished and unfinished
pictures and the'various paraphernalia of the
great artist. It was here ho showed hie trea
sures tome,lttneng which was the above letter,
and here he showed his mind the greatest trea
sure or all.
. .
' The morning he began the portrait of Wash
ington, Stuart also began his.. Washington
sat to Mr Peale at seven o'clock. and entered
the door every time at the appointed moment
just as the clock on old In lopendenco Hall
I struck the hour of seven. Washington sat to
Stuart at ten o'clock of the same day. Mk . .
Peale took every.occasion to study Washing
ton—would contrive to meet him on the street
wherever and whenever he could. Ills father
and Washington conversed freely and with
mach humorous feeling, while the young
artist painted. Mr Peale and his fattier com
pleted the . poreraits and found that they differ
etl a little in the upper and lower parts of the
face—Mr. Peale set.himelf earnestly to work
to discover which in each possessed the real
merit of truth, after much arduous labor lie
produced a, portrait giving full satisfaction.
There was so muclawritten.and said-against
. 'Washington. as Mr. Peale remarked, much as
against Jackson at a later day, that the artist
became quite disgusted with America..and
thinking the country , about. on the border of a
civil war, made preparations to leave for Eu
rope Ilis fatheethought Washington a great
and good man, but did-not compare him with
any statesmen or generals of!antiquiti; while''
IMr. Peale himself thought Washington the
greatest man that had °vet-Jived
His object, therefore, in studying a perfect
likeness was. that. he might shave to. Europe
What he might call alterfect picture of Amer
ica's noblest son. ills father gave his.appro- ,
bation of the picture, in a letter which I saw,`
stating that he believed it. the best. that had
been painted Mr. Peale, by the way, showed
me accurate copies of Stuart's and of Trum-
Mill's - Und itrall War had - eve r.been - done 'recta ,
'life the, first was in 1772. by his father,
when Washington was Col. of the Alexandria)
militia You could trace a likeness from this
picture to the final .ono of Mr. Peale, but in
the others, except some ports of the face, you
could perceive very little likeness. Mr. Peale
showed me severalletters,written him by dis
titguished and departed men on the subject
'of his portrait of Washington. In one from
Judge Marshall; I noticed the'words "striking
likeness ;" and in'a letterfroin Judge Peter'S,
"the only portrait of Washington ;" one letter
was from Major Jackson, Private' secretary to
Washington, and who, soon after Washing
ton's death. enchained a Philadelphia audi t
once of 3000, for, Iwo Miura, by ono of, the
most remarkable orations given on that mourn
ful (trent: 'ln this letter I
,saw the'words—
"similitude of features end- characteristic ex
pression nf,Countenarme.". Mr. 'Peale has
painted-a'Military, and a senatorial picturt of
Washington. Judge Butihrtn . 'Washington
could not tell, pie says in• his letter to' Mr.
Peale) which is the 'better." .The senatorial
portrait is in possession of Congress who sup
posing that Mr. Peale, would. like to sell his
Work, offered hint $2OOO for it, which lie ao-

At this day,'res u I . •complimentary to
the present National-. Administration may be

plainly to be-obliterated by bribed eulogy, or
to be misunderstood by the People of this .

has been camly•and delibertilely passed upon
this treason- to the Democracy, this RSSllSSillft
lion- of common honesty, and it is as' ii.rever
sible as the decrees of Gpl. , It is wise, there

and 10 'avoid the folly of an Attempt
to cover up an authicions criminality we must

the -action of the 34th Congress, the
complaints made by the residents 'Of Kansas

South, by 'tile legislation of 1854. was pledged
to maintain the domestic-sovereignly of the

and Mr. Buchanan (mind . it necessary, in or
der to eirry the election in his own State, to.
pledgit himself distinctly to the maintenance
of the doctrine urpopular sovereignty, and to
defend the rights of those who had been thus
,ruthlesAy despoiled. I will not preload to
indicate the particular weakness in his nature
that induced him to turn the'hand of the sui
cide against-his-own frame, as -it matters lit—
tle whether it arose from - timidity,A fear of his
enemies outWeighhig a' love of his friends, a
careless disregard of fair dealing, or a weak
and puerile vanity. It is enough to know
that he deceived all, Our hopes, turned with
blackeSt ingratittido upon that self-saerilleing
friendship by which he reached the goal of his
feverish 'ambition, and sought,- by all the
means within the reach of drunken and st
goring atulfority,*to disgrace every man whom
he could not debauch... Suddenly, and as by
the touch of the wand df the Magician, ho be
came transformed from the 'sympathiser with
down-trodden freedom, to the open and shame
less defender, of aggressive and law-defying
slavery. The halls of the national legislature
were turned into% marts for conscience He
published his interpretations of party princi
ples and platforms with the arrogance of a.
dictator, and commanded his subordiuntes in
office, and his coward slaves, to reiterate and
proclaim his bulls Of party excommunication
against all who were rash enough to follow an
independent judgment. These acts of them
selves are enough to sever allegiance. It
wenl4 be an ill-shapen manhood which could'
'tolerate' them in silence. But because we de
nounce them, we are anathematised as rebel
lious. Sir, we will see where the rebellion
will end It will end in the.supremacy.of the
laws;' in the integrity of the Constitution; in
the purification of parties; ion the sWorn loyal
ty of executives ; and the vigorous growth,
material greatness, mind eternal dominance of
the North. That' is where it will end Pop
ular sovereignly, invoked by the South, will
be defended by no, and it. shall unfold the
veiled, yet dimly discovered, diPstiny of this
great RepUblic. We are battling for the right
—for thelspirit of the institutions our fathers
established. Let IN iM that we are doing
this, and we will actal l uilish the victory of our
country; not a mere naked triumph. tit the
polls, but the pleat success afterwards—the
untrammelled self government of man ; the
dedication of a continent to m, consistent lib
erty.
Thoce who stop to talk pf conciliation and,
Cotnpromises between me and the self-consti
tuted medics of the •Democratlc party, can
have but a feeble appreciattoti of the real con
ditiOn of things. When you can harmonize

and the human heart mekes it inevitable; and

ascendency. The struggle between them, but
just begun, is now. going on in our midst: and
he is but a superficial observer who does not
discover it. We have acted' honorably—be

I leave it before you and tbaatinistry, as a full
justification for our present course, and as the
reason for our settled determination to refine

we must denounce usurpation. Asking jus- •
tice,- we cannot inflict. a wrong. Economy is
' not presented to us ,as a choice ; it., is forced
upon its a necessity ;• and having been trained

to regard purity as essential to - power, it is -
too late in our lives to turn demagogues to

likely to be our reward for the phoiee that we

suppose they have throttled the wolf, that.
they may have only caught. him by, the ears.
It is told that wffeh the Belvidere Apollo was .
in tlai'Louvre, a lady of gushing and fascina
ting beauty came with each returning sun to
look upon and love it. wreathing it with selec
ted flowers, and clasping it with all the ardor
of tier youthful heart. Days and weeks and
months rolled on, until at last the cold and
stony figure turned her warm 'blood to ice, •
and she was found dead, with her face. buried
in her hands, and leaning against it. Sir, we
may be too 'ideal, and look. for a perfection
which nature does not furnish. Like the
daughter pf „the Baron, we may bestow the
jewels of the heart where their value can never
be appreciated, and our last pulse May beat
as we kneel in' au absorbing and silent
adoration before the symbol of a god. If such
must be, we may well claim, at least a gene- •
rous sympathy, for that form once had brain,
and heart, and life, and power. In the days
of Jefferson it, was wise and creative, in the
days of Madison brave and benevolent, and ha
the days of Jackson, conunanding and resist
less. 'Then it was the awe inspiring guardian,
of 'Liberty—American Democracy—inviting
companionship, and holding in its hands the
olive branch of peace and the thunderbolt of
war.
