" One, tbe 6rst, and last, acd best; The Cincinnatus of the west, Whom envy dared not hate, Beqaeatbed tbe name of Washington To make men blusb, there was bat one.' " First in war, he drew bis patriot band Not worlds to conquer, bat a world to save ; When peace and freedom blessed bis native land, Resigned bis power into the hands that gave. niastrioag man! coald not ambition, then. Tempt thee to turn against thy country's breast, Tby victor's sword, and be like other men, And hailed a hero like the laareled rest? Ab no ! thy lanrela were by virtne won. Pare and antamished by a single stain ; Freedom and Glory claim their Washington, Millions unborn shall venerate that name." WASHINGTON MEMORIES. "The city of Philadelphiabeing in danger from the enemy, Congress adjourned De- cember 12th, 1 776, to Baltimore. They now gave to Washington entire control of the operations of the war." " Washington crossed the Delaware on the night of the 25th of December, 1776, nine miles above Trenton with about 2,500 men — attacked the enemy, gained a great victory ; took 1000 prisoners, six field pieces, and a thousand stand of arms." On Thursday, April 30th, 1789, George Washington took the oath required by the Constitution, which was administered to him by the chancellor of the State of New York, and then delivered his inaugural address. "Washington attacked the British at Princeton, New Jersey, January 3d, 1777, and after a warm contest gained a decided victory. Of the British 100 men were killed and 300 taken prisoners. The loss of the Americans was 100. General Mercer was slain and Lieutenant James Monroe — since President of the United States, was wounded." Washington's Farewell Address, is dated United States, 17th September, 1796." Washington teas President for two terms. 1st. From March 4, 1789 to March 4, 1793. 2nd. From March 4, 1793 to March 4, 1797. In the year 1800 the seat of the national government was removed to the city of Washington. /V ^,3 iJ «< THE Wi&gH3E»ffiT.0H SiScI-S SfeiSSJ?PiSl]&& OFFICERS AND MANAGERS I editors table. or TH I It is nsnal for editors' tables to be piled But we don't see any such things on our ta- ble.

Bouquets. — The beautiful ladies of the Fifth Section (See Sund;iy Transcript,) were recipients of numerous beautiful " Drjburgli Bouquets." The Rose Bud was particularly favored. Ninth Section.— Although this Section has no table in the Fair, yet, it is due to this Section, to say, that they have furnished a great many articles, which appear on the tables of the other Sections. Philadelphia Brass Band, No. 2. The thanks of the Association are due, and are hereby tendered to the gentleman com- posing this excellent band, for their services at the Fair on Wednesday evening, March 2d. Officers. — The Mayor of the City has kindly eent to the Fair, two of his uniformed Reserve Corpi — Samuel Hamilton and John Loreare, who by their gentlemanly conduct and energy, have well earned the praise of all, as well as the thanks of the Associatioa. Whrn Sir William Howe took posses- sion of Philadelpliia, he quartered a portion of his troops at Germantown, while others were sent toward the position held by the Americans. Washington conceived tliis a fair opportunity of striking a blow at his adversary. He collected together all thej troops within his reach; and on the night of the 3d of October, 1777, broke up hisl camp, about fifteen miles from CJerman-' town, and advanced upon the British. Several unfortunate events occurred, during the night, w'hich had their effect upon the ne.vt day's disaster. Count Pulaski was found asleep in a farm-house. The ammu- nition wagons were delayed, and the ofE- cer in whose charge they were was after- wards found in a field, drunk. The attack commenced about daylight. The pickets were forced, and the infantry fled in confusion. So sudden was the sur- prise, that the officers' watches were found j hanging up in their tents, together with their trunks of clothing. The latter was a most welcome prize to the victors. The infantry, however, were soon rallied by| their officers, and annoyed the Americans' by firing from the houses and other def'en- cible [daces in the course of retreat. i Several companies of the 40th regiment threw themselves into Chew's House — a large stone building — and, barricading the lower windows, fired with most destructive effect from the upper windows, and also from the cellars. The Americans finding that musketry had but little effect, brought up their cannon ; but after firing fifteen or twenty rounds, they were found too small to make any impression. Attempts were made by Colonel Laurens and Major White to set the building on fire, but without success. The Major was mortally wounded. AVashington, who bad cheered on his soldiers in their career, as they drove tlie enemy from point to point, now arrived in the vicinity of Chew's House, and a consul- tation was held to form a plan to be pur- sued in regard to this obstacle in their way of success. The younger officers were in favor of leaving Chew's House, or station- ing a body of troops to guard the place, and pressing on with the column in pursuit of the flying enemy ; but the senior officers would not consent to leaving a fortified enemy in their rear. A heavy fog which had been prevailing all the morning now became so dense tluil it was almost impossible to distinguish friend from foe ; and a retreat was ordered at a moment when victory seemed to be placing another chaplct upon the brow of Washington. When the cannonading was heard in Philadelphia, Sir William Howe dispatched additional troops to Germantown ; but not- withstanding, Washington save! all his artillery, and the wounded were taken to the camp which they had left the even- ing before. Gen. Nash was mortally wound- ed in this battle, and died a few days after. i.^ ^^S ^HE -WASHIHGTGB T^IE J0ir OFFICERS AND MANAGERS I Elegant Donations. — Messers Cowper- thwaite i Co., pre!>ented the Tenlh Section fians^inglon glonument Jlssotialion, \SneJ"{'u(e[ &" number/ win^htre OF Till '" ''6 disposed of by raffle, -100 chances, at FIRST SCii03L HISTKICT OF TENS A. -'' c*'"^ P" chance.

The rush to the Hall, has been so great, and llie duties of the editor so numerous and urgent, that it has been quite impcssible to issue TiiK JoiBSAL daily, as at first intended. I Another reason is, that we have not been furnished with the names of Donors in the| several Sectiuns. So, we are doing the beM we can under all the circumstances. j Who will say now, that the Fair is not a charming success? Who will say now, that this noble and proiseworthy enterprise docs not deserve the public favor?

It seems to us quite proper, that we should notice, in onler, tlie tables of the several Sectious represented, so that the names of those who have been active should be chronicled in our " Sweet little Journal" — to be read by tens of thousands, and finally find a beautiful and glorious resting-place in the Washington Monument, which it is now certain Iff xhtitl build ! We may remark, in general, that never before bus there been witnessed in this city, so delightful, so beautiful, so radiant and blissful a patriotism, as has been displayed by those Teachers of the Public Schools, who have moved with angel-energy and sweet- ness, to execute the grand design of building a monument to Washington, in the city of Philadelphia. The sweet memory of these teachers is even now cherished in rosy fresh- ness, and bloom in the licirts of thousands unnumbered. Time will bring on his swift wings no blast to wither, no storm to crash these flowers immortal ! But, rather, on the glad wings of every wind, their fra-i grance and their praise will waft and waft, on seas of human hearts, and be borne along the illustrious highway of a glorious future in radiant chariots of jewelled and flowery beaaty, drawn in triumphal march by the garlanded and conquering army of our Public School pupils, and legions of sympathising friends.

Important Suggestion.— A number of our frieuJs, unJ the firdont frieuda of the Philadelphia Washinylon Mvnument haTO sug- gested to the editor of the Journal, that he should continue its publication monthly, until the Monument is finished. The idea is a good one, and will do more to keep the fires of generous patriotism alive, then any thing else in connection with this grand movement of the Public Schools of the City of Philadel- phia. As a regiiter of the Association, as a Uilgtr for the names of all donors to the Monument, as a Souvenir of taste, of patriotism, of public Bpck, James spirit, such a publication will be invaluable.

At the closing of the Washington Monu- ment Fair on Saturday evening, March 12th a magnificient silver pitcher was presented to Mr. Geo. F. Gordon, the Chairman ofthe Com- mittee on Fair, by eighteen teachers of the Fifteenth School Section. While the brilliant and fashionable audience were promenading to the sweet sounds of martial music, the attentive observer might have seen, numerous ladies and gentlemen passing from the main Hall into one of the side rooms. When we entered, by invitation, the room was literally jammed with beautiful and smiling faces. In the center of the room a small circle was left, in it stood John H. Whetler, Esq., of the Philadelphia Bar, with the gay and fascinating teachers of the fifteenth section on his ri^^ht, and on his left the good looking gentlemen composing the " Committee on Fair."

GORDON The undersigned, at the urgent request of many friends, proposes to publish a Monthly Journal, to be known as the The Jol'kn'al, will contain a record of the proceedings of the Association, and the names of all who donate anj' sums of money to the erection of the Moninnent. It will, also, contain handsome Engravings of all plans for Monuments submitted to the Association: also, the designs, cost, history, etc., of all Monuments or Statues erected to the memory of Washington in the United States. This will umke The Journal A S1?LE:SBID PIGTOaiAL. The object of the Editor will be, to make The Journal a complete repository of Designs for AVashingtou Monuments — as well, as all the interesting points in the History of A\'asLington ; together with a variety of matter in connection with our I^TJBLIC SCHOOLS. ^^'ithout promising too much, we may say, that the effort will be made to make the Journal a welcome Home-visitor to every Teacueu and Pupil in our Public Schools. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, PER YEAR, DeUvered $1 00 SINGLE NUMBERS, FIVE CENTS, Each. 1|C:K^ Profits to he devoted to the Building of the Monument. U^=^ The names of all Subscriliers, will be published, and finally deposited in the Monument. UCS=^ If every Teacher in our Public Schools will take a little interest in this matter, the circulation of the Journal can easily be made 20,000. This would aid the Monument fimd very much, and enable the Association to keep men at work all the time at the Monument. Uc:^ A limited number of proper Advertisements will be received.
