THE DUST OF WASHINGTON i
The tombs of Englands honored dead
Arc like her annals grand
Loaning oer Chathams burled head Z
Drooping by Nelsons trophled bed i
As If their hearts of marble bled vfvJJ
Arts silent mourners stand
But how my country hast thou shrined
Thy patriot heroes dust
Hath he In whose majestic mind j
All human virtues were combined cii 3
Hath he tho champion of mankind
Carved urn or laurel bust
No from his tomb th unsculptured stones
Mildewed and broken fall
No marble warders guard his bones
His grave nor state nor nation owns
And lie who startled Europes thrones
Neglected lies of all
The monuments that Nature gavo
Are melting fast away
The branches that were wont to wave
Liko banners oer the good and brave
Torn rudely from his hallowed grave
Are speculations prey
Conquered Cornwallla rests In state
So Howe and Clinton lie
For Britain bars not glorys gate
Against een her defeated great
While we to him whose sword was fate
A fitting tomb deny
Sons of tho soil heirs of the fame
Earths purest patriot won
Let not hl3 memory be your shame
The sordid ransom give and claim
The dust of Washington

Early Selected
for High Honors
Although Col Wasnington retired to
a private station at Mount Vernon at
the close of the frontier warfare he
did not neglect his duties to the public
Still holding the office of adjutant-general
of the militia he circulated orders
for them to assemble at certain times
and places to be exercised and re
viewed So much were the inhabitants
alarmed at the recent successes of the
enemy that their martial spirit re
ceived a new impulse and volunteer
companies began to be organized
Their ardor was stimulated from the
pulpit and it was in a sermon to one
of these companies that the accom
plished and eloquent Samuel Davies
pronounced the celebrated encomium
in a single sentence which has often
been quoted as prophetic After prais
ing the zeal and courage which has
been shown by the Virginia troops
the preacher added As a remark
able instance of this I may point out
to the public that heroic youth Col
Washington whom I cannot but hope
Providence has hitherto preserved In
so signal a manner for some important
service to his country This was but
the echo of the general voice and it
is a proof of the high estimation in
which the character of Washington
was at that time held by his country
men and of the hopes it had raised
Patrick Henrys
Worthy Tribute
Mr Wirt relates an anecdote of
Washington which shows iu what esti
mation he was held by the members of
the first Congress Soon after Patrick
Henry returned home being asked
whom he thought the greatest man
in Congress he replied If you speak
of eloquence Mr Rutledge of South
Carolina is by far the greatest orator
but if you speak of solid information
and sound judgment Colonel Washing
ton is unquestionably the greatest
man on that floor This opinion was
verified by every act of his life His
knowledge on the subjects to which
he gave his attention was most thor
ough and exact and all the world
has agreed that no other man has
given such proofs of the soundness of
his judgment
TA 1 2
Ahsol ute Stranger
to Physical Fear
An anecdote is related by an his
torian Illustrative of Washingtons
resolution and courage A person of
lawless habits and reckless character
had frequently entered upon the
grounds near Mount Vernon and shot
ducks and other game More than
once he had been warned to desist and
not to return It was his custom to
cross ths Potomac in a canoe and
ascend the creeks to some obscure
place where he could be concealed
from observation One day hearing
the discharge of a musket Washing
ton mounted his horse and rode in
the direction of the sound The in
truder discovered his approach and
had just time to gain the canoe and
push it from the shore when Washing-
t
ton emerged from the bushes at the
distance of a few yards The man
raised his gun cocked it pointed it at
him and took deliberate aim but
without a moments hesitation Wash
ington rode into the water seized the
prow of the canoe drew it to land
disarmed his antagonist and inflicted
on him a chastisement which he never1
again chose to run the hazard of en
countering
Mrs Washingtons
Noble Character
In the course of the year following
the French and Indian war Col
Washington had paid his addresses
successfully to Mrs Martha Custis to
whom he was married on the 6th of
January 1759 This lady was three
months younger than himself widow
of John Parke Custis and distinguish
ed alike for her beauty accomplish
ments and wealth She was the daugh
ter of John Dandridge At the time of
her second marriage she had two
children a son and a daughter the
former six years old the latter four
Mr Custis had left large landed estates
in New Kent County and forty five
thousands pounds sterling in money
One third part of this property she
held in her own right the other two
thirds being equally divided between
her children
By this marriage an accession of
more than one hundred thousand dol
lars was made to Col Washingtons
fortune which was already consider
able in the estate at Mount Vernon
and other lands which he had select
ed during his surveying expeditions
and obtained at different times To
the management of his extensive pri
vate affairs his thoughts now turned
He also took upon himself the guard
ianship of Mrs Washingtons two
children and the care of their proper-
r
-
i ii i r r -
ty which trust he discharged with all
the faithfulness and assiduity of a
father till the son became of age and
till the daughter died in her nineteenth
year This union was in every respect
felicitous It continued forty years
To her intimate acquaintances and to
the nation the character of Mrs
Washington was ever a theme of
praise Affajale and courteous exem
plary in her deportment remarkable
for her deeds of charity and piety un
ostentatious and without vanity she
adorned by her domestic virtues the
sphere of private life and filled with
dignity every station in -which sho
was placed
