It was there, on a frozen surface, that, in 1776, was achieved the glorious event which restored the fashfaili_ng fortunes of liberty, and gave to her drooping eagles a renewed and bolder flight What a. contrast to the chief must have been this spot in 1789, when no longer "a mercenary foe aimed against him the fatal blow," when no more was heard I' See the eoi-respondence between Wnahington and young Custis during the collegiate days of the latter, appended to the Mnnoir. t A more minute account of Vnhington'l reception at Trenton, when on his way to New York, In the lprlng of I789, to he Inaugurated the tint president of the United Staten, will be found In another chapter. the roar of combat, the shouts of the victors, the groans of the dying--but the welcome of thousands to liberty's great defender--the heartfelt homage of freemen to the deiiverer of his country.

Washington then shed tears--tears of the deepest emotion. The merit of these appropriate and classical decorations is due to the late Mrs. Stockton, of Princeton, a lady of superior literary oequirements and refined taste.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Washington "Another Life of Washington!" Anticipating this very natural exclamation, let the new aspirant be allowed a few words of explanation, if not apology. Abundant and excellent are the biographies of Washington, certainly. Yet there seems room for one especially adapted to young people - not children, exactly, but the older pupils in our schools, and some learners who have done with schools. For these, the very fulness of the best lives of Washington renders them unsuitable. Details of battles and statesmanship, the cruelties of war and politics, are not particularly interesting or instructive to the young.

This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections Written in the Library of Congress, Washington Of the years of the war I recall only this incident, which is as vivid as yesterday's events Some soldiers (i do not know whether Yankee or Confederate) stopped one day at our home. I was afraid to touch or get near them. I do not know how long they stayed or what they did; except that they took my father's only horse (he had one horse and one mule) which they saw ploughing in a nearby field. He was a nice looking bay horse. They commandeered or captured this horse, to our dismay I suppose the feelings aroused I was too young and too frightened to apprehend. No doubt I thought we were lucky to escape alive from their visit. But they didn't keep this horse. On the hard road he manifested a limp something was wrong with his feet or a leg so he couldn't travel well, although he could pull a plow. It was doubtless due to this defect that we had him at all; for I imagine most able bodied horses and 'mules had been drafted for the Confederate service. So the horse was turned loose by the soldiers before they carried him far, and we were rejoiced to see our dear old horse coming home again.
