of. tho Twelfth. niucii uciiiroiies iiespocisiu and ubhors anarcny, the club is a potent factor. Hero we do not claim the partisan significance once assouiatd with the name of Hamilton. Membership hero docs not imply adherence in our time to tho special precepts which he taught in his time; not even to the precepts which a.

study of his career lead some of us to bolievo ho would mculcato now. But it dots implv sympathy with that spirit of enlightened patriotism which cnoblod his career: devotion to an ideal Jn professional conduct which scorns unfair advantage: to an ideal in business dealing. which paralyzes the hand that reaches after dishonest wealth; to an in statesmanship which withers iu contempt him who 'oiin private emolument out of nubile trust. And the club pledges its devotion to such ideals in dedicating ihis memorial Alexander Hamilton. An adjournment was then taken to tho parlors of tho club houso where the exercises wero continued.

President McKocn, on a raised platform between the two largj introduced ex Judg(j Joshua M. Van Cott, who eulogized Hamilton as a statesman. Ho spoko in part as follows: I am reminded to day of another occasion when I was called upon to address an asseniblace taking the name of Alexander Ilaur.ltou. It was in aim before the Hamilton Literary society which this club sprung. I was asked to deliver an address on tho statesmanship of Prosidont James Madison, who had died tins previous year.

I am proud to be called upon on this notable occasion to address yon on the statesmanship of Alexander Hamilton. There havo never been any two statesmen in this country to whom we owo more than to them for its uuityprosperity und grandeur as a constitutional ffople. As a scholar, soldier, lawj er. statesmen. Hamilton crowded more fame into the forty seven years of his life than any man in history.

His premature death in the very flower nf his greatness was a martyrdom at the hand of a national assassin. The imagination is taxed by un attempt to foreeast what his lire mieht havo been if it had none on to its natural limits, life of double interest to mankind. What if Hamilton had lived to the natural limits of his life What must have been the developments of his marvelous intellect The only othcu he held at the time of his death was that of commander in chief of the arniv of the united States. Ho was a soldier whom Washinu toii loved to the last and who said; Or nil Hin men fitted to command Alexander Hamilton is the fittest." The bench and archives of tho Now lork bar are full of tho examples of his ability as a lawyer. I will speak or him as a statesman.

Aover from his lips wero the words to fail. The United States and its constitution the greatest monuments to Hamilton. What scholar tries to deny that Alexander Hamilton was tlie ureat pst statesman of this country. Tho subject is largo enough to fill many books, and time forbids ample treatment of tho Btibject. His career began when ho was 17 yoar.s old.

when thy cry to arms so stirred the spirit within him that his Passionate utterances of patriotism Bonn mado his name woll known in the community. I will take the most critical period of our national existence, from 1TS3 to 1703, a period when the country was almost torn asunder. It was a question whether the country should cement itt ulf under a strong constitutional government or whether it should revert to tho condition of kings under which it existod before the war for independence. Hamilton's intelligence and statesmanship sent tho country forward on its wonderful course of proapority. 1 We do not attach the proper amount of importance now to the efforts made thou to bring about tho conditions under which wo live.

It is great mistake to make mid we do not approciate tho heroic strugitlo mado by the patriots of Hamilton's timo tho struggle to overcome the efforts of some to formthis country into confederacies: tho struircle to make a perfoct union out of the belligerent states: the struggle to brm; hostile elements into concord and peace. hose were tho questions to be met by those who enterod into the task and their efforts resulted making a perfoct union, and tho burden of the oftices wore on the arms and shoulders of Alexander Hamilton. Hamilton's speeches for the adoption of the constitution, in light of tho things dependent upon it, were the createst ever delivered in this country. They were tired with eloquence and passionate patriotism, and were masterful appeals for union. No greator piece of work has ever been done by any one man from the day of this country's infancy to the present date thon was this work of Alexander Hamilton.

Tho constitution was carried, the eovernment formed with Hamilton as the first secretary of the treasury. Tho necessity immediately arose tn raise money to pay tho country's debts and how they wero met is a matter of history to all time. Hamilton will ever be remembered as a financier who met and overcame obstacles that are impossible at the present day. All civilized countries of the world recognized the groat principles contained in the reports of Hamilton on financial questions. Alexander Hamilton was the greatest man noxt to Washington this country has over had.

Ho was the peerless statosman of his airo in any English speaking country and to him moro than to any nther man we owo our ability to stand under one flag, one constitution, ono destiny. Judge VanCott was in flno voice and his scholarly address was listened to with closo at tention. Ho was heartily applauded at tho conclusion. President McKeen then introduced General Stewart L. Woodford, who spoko of Hamilton from tho standpoint of a soldior.

His remarks were very briof, but the spirit of ins eloquence eievatea mm to a nign point of impassioned oratory and won repeated evidences of appreciation. In introducing Dr. Allan McLean Hamilton. tho grandson of Alexander Hamilton, Mr. McKeen paid a warm tribute to tho family and thanked them for tho assistance rendorod tho club in securing so line a portrait of Hamilton.

Dr. Hamilton spoke as followa Mr. President and members of the Hamilton club I thank you for your kindly welcome and thu pleasant words you have just spoken. I am not a man of speech, but, like others of my profession, am better kuowu by deeds than words I camo at your invitation to do honor to the memory of my Grandfather. It is, perhaps more fitting that this tribute of respect for General Hamilton should come from Brooklyn than anywhere else, for it was iu tho battle of Brooklyn Heights that he won his first spurs.

I tako a porsoual pride in seeing this statuo in front of this club houso. Mr. Par tridse litis taken moro than an earnest interest in the formationiof this work; hm study of the ciiaracter, bearinc ami work of General Hamilton has been most thorough. I congratulate tho club in tho magnificent result or his genius. As the representative of tho family of Alexander Hamilton I consider it the very best likeness of all the bust and statues that have boon made of him.

Hero Dr. Hamilton was interrupted with long continued applause, upon tho subsidenco of Which he said: I camo near forctetting what was. perhaps, the most important part of my duty to day. I have hero a rolic of General Hamilton which I havo prized beyond price. It consists of two Jocks of ha'r, one of which was out from General Hamilton's head by my grandmother, when, as Miss Schuyler, she was being courted, and the other was cut by her at the death of her husband.

Thoy have beon sacredly guarded as priceless keepsakes by us till now. and iii 'behalf of our family I bog to hand them into yon: possession, as a fitting commemoration of the day. Theso locks of hair are inclosed in a heart shaped silvar case, the hair being in relief on a white and black contrast to their colors, ana surrounded by a wreath of laurel lavos. President McKooa in a few woll chosen words thanked Dr. Hamilton, in behalf ot tho Hamilton club, for tho gift.

An adjournment wa3 thon taken to tho banquet hall, whore an excellent and bountiful repast was enjoyed. After tho coiroo Mr. McKeon said that while the moro formal part of tho ox orci3cs had been performed, there was another leaturo tuat would be ol intorest. Ho then proposed a toast to tho sculptor, Mr. William Ordway Partridge, which was drunk standing.

Mr. Partridge responded Drieliy, reciting the cares of an artist with a pieoe of work on his hunds of tho character thatho havl just parted with, and said it was liko the i'sot, of Grueoo with tho bulk of Persia." He then' related an anecdote of Talleyrand in his 1tterance3 on Hamilton. Whiio in this country he sovoral times saw light buruing in Hamilton's window far into tho night and said that he had for thu llrst time found man who had made ths fortune of a groat country who was compelled to toil all night for his daily bread. Dr. C'atlin was tho noxt spoakor and told of tho youth of Mr.

Tartrldge, who had beeoma his protege. He said: He was a boy whom I have cradled in my arms. In my oflieo one day I handed him a piece of clay and told Him to try to mold a human face In tho result of his efforts I found his future. I hail a patient, an old lady noaring hor century. I sot him to work alongside of her.

In a week's timo the same head appeared in the clav that nature had mado for my patient, but on shoulders of youth. Tho youth's attention being directed to me mscreijancy a lew concuss 01 ms gifted hand wrought the work perfected. I am proud to do hin: hrmoron this occasion. Mr. Murnt Halstend was thon introduced and said: It is due to Alexander Hamilton that we are a nation to day.

His ll. i'inciul documents aions are a monument to his wonderful genius and aro us applicable to the proseut day as thoy were when written. Tho statue unvailod to day ricnes Brooklyn, already enriched in art, and will lend luster to tho names of its projectors. Mr. Herbert F.

Kotcham, prosidont of tho Lincoln club, rospoudod to toast iu part ns follows: "1 do not supposo it is in order to make speechos in conformity with the practice of tho United States senate, so 1 will bo briof. An artist expresses his fueling iu poetry, a sculptor develops his character lovely aspirations and puritj of thought, which i Tbrought out in competition. The Hamilton club is the cradle of art and tes thetic purposes, and a leader iu the fostering of actions aud noblo thoughts in the citj of Brooklyn. We aro taught to live uprightly by looking upon tho face of one who has lived puro and good. The figure of Hamilton that stands without, with ita alert, intellieont face and enthusiastic bearing, beckoning on the wayfarer to higher deeds and nobler purposes, is a monument to tho intelligent appreciation of this citv.

Shepard, William B. Kendall and Lindloy Murray, jr. FobV Twenty third regiment band played many popular and patriotic selections during tho exercises and evening. A platform had been erected around tho statue on which the opening exercises were held. This, together with tho statue.

was draped in the Stars and Stripes. In tho parlor of tho olubhouso was a large crayon picture of Edward A. Soeeomb festooned with smilax and roses. To Mr. Soccomb more than to any other ono man the Hamilton club gives praise for making tho ceremonies of tho day possible.

His death in September, 1892, saw the arrango monts so far advanced that failuro was impossible. It was tho earnest wiali nf tho thnt Mlss Graco Seecomb. tho daughter of Mr. Sec comb, would unvail tho statuo. But In this they wore disappointed.

Miss Soccomb at tho last moment declining the privilege. Mr. George M. Olcott opened tho exercises by presenting the status in tho name of the subscribers to tho club. To tho inspiriting strains of "America" and amid hearty cheers and applause the Hag slipped from its fastenings and revealed the statue as in tho accompanying illustrations.

The statue and D0de6tal stands sixteen feet high. The pedestal is of the Tuscan order of architecture, iu keeping with tho style of Hamilton's time, and is of tho finest Qnlncy granite. Tho base or step is rough aud forms tho foundation on which the monolith rests. Tho monolith is highly pslished, as is the cap, bringing tho pdestal to a height of seven and a half feet. The statue is of bronze and was cast in Paris by Gruet, tho famous artist.

The plaster cast of the figure has been on exhibition in Chicago, where it has received universal praise. Mr. William Ordway Partridge of Boston, the sculptor, has become an enthusiastic lover of Alexander Hamilton; the more ho has studied him tho more he admires his genius. "I have not followod any one portrait or bust," said Mr. Partridge to an Eaole repro sentatlvo.

but have made a composite portrait. My artistic aim has boon to portray him ns a dignified, cultured aud impassioned orator, aud In doing this have sought to mako It a piece of soulpturo. I think I have succeeded in making it sculpturesque aud yet retained all the features his family believe him to have possessed. I have studied his character woll and consider him to be held higher in tho estimation of the French statesmen than any other representative of this country of his day. I have left no stone unturned to mako an artistic statue.

I have lived in Brooklyn nnd hovo many friends in tho city and in the Hamilton club. I have made my best endeavor to add a feature to tho arc of Brooklyn that will bo a credit and pleasure to the city." The inscriptions on the four sides of tho monolith wore selected by Dr. Truman J. Backus and are as follows: There is not in the constitution of the United States an element of order, of force, or of duration, which he has not Dowerfullr contributed to introduce and cansetl to predominate Onizot.

Mr. James MoKeeu. president of the Hamil ton olub, then accepted tho gift on behalf ot tho club in the following speech It gives mo great pioannre on behalf of the Hamilton club in its corporate character to accept this sple'mtid gift from tho individual members.

As Mr. Olcott has suggested, this occasion, otherwise joyous, is tinged with sadness iu recalling the bereavement which Vo sharo with the community in the untimely cisath of Edward A. Seecomb, whose zealous energy, without exactly havine to smite any mosaic rocks, nevertheless evolved the rill which irr gfttod into fructifying fertility thu artistic genius of William Ordway Partridge. Applause. It is a cause of satisaction that this magnificent statue commouiorating the groat statesman whose name the club bears, lor us also monsurably commemorates in Mr.

Soccomb as true a friend, and as pure and upright a man as can be found enumerated iu the roll of Brooklyn's citizous. Anient as is our admiration of Alexander Hamilton now conspicuously made manifest, we do not liore set up au idol in bronze. The American Kepublic does not ioiiow me example or imperial Home, and apothoosize its rulers. It is not dismayed when tue scrutiny of lust historic criticism discovers in its heroes some evidences of frailty. Indeed in tho strengthaned ties of human fellowship is found compensationfor the absence of reverential worshiD.

And in contemolatinrr tho rn nnt tragedy which closed Hamilton's career, while we Honor tho virtue which refused to lire upon an implacable adversary and applaud the splendid courage which preferred death to tho possible imputation of personal cowardice, we may admit that a greater virtue would havo declined tho encounter, and a ereater courage would have endured tne taunts of temporary calumny. Applause. In, however, uricine and challenging the most zealous study of the lives of groat men wo would not applaud the misdirected industry which rovives forgotten slanders. In thelicht or rather in the darkness of some of the latti day revelations (such as woulii makn nnlnmtma nothing but a pirate), we are tempted to with Mariana thnt tho "best men are molded out of faults and for the most become much more the better for beiuir a little bad." It is the privilege of posterity to see most clearly those qualities which shine through time. So dazzling was the genius of Hamilton that there is a certain relief to the vision in viewing some phases of his career through the mists of political prejudice.

Some panes of somo historians serve us like smoked glass in looking at tho sun. Tlio sooty obscuration is not in the luminary, but in tho modium through, which he is observed. But I will not enumerate the qualities and tho achievements which have won for Hamilton his great place among the founders of tho republic. What is to be said of those qualities and achievements will bo better said by the distinguished gentlemen who are presently to address us. I will venture only a few words more, and those rather, as to the club's relation to tho name of Hamilton, and as to some of its implications.

It has been sometimes said that wnereas banks and trust companies and institutions of learning may properly take the name of the first secretary of tho treasury and chief author of tho 'eaemiisr. that there is an incongruity iu tinding a social club in such a patronymic family. Perhaps the criticism is an outsrowth of tho time, not very remote, when the club, at least in common belief, existed only for tho drones in the social hive aud catered only to the indolenco ui iiiiDjiciw. jjub wins, uvi uo, is cei laituy no longer true. The great economic changes of our time have constantly tendered to enlarge the hours of leisure.

The man vhose natural inclination may still prompt him to dovoto hi.s entire day to active business linds himself the victim of changed methods and shorter hours. The relen: less janitress at her not his appointed time sweeps iiim out of his palatial office. The leisure thrust upon men who would themselves never have sought to achieve itis not the iistloss leisure of idleness. It is rather that leisure which Bacon describes as the very end and object of labor. And such a leisure the olub of our day aids in utilizing.

Whatever vices the club still has, hvDocris.v is not added to them. The plnh. w. taiuly this club, is confessedly, avowedly and primarily a form of co operation for persona! comfort and luxury. It is not a couiDeiitor of tho church in the spread of true religion, it may teach something of the art of spending monev.

but it is not a comneiitor of tho in oither imparting or ucquiriug knoivlvdue. lint ituriugd togotner, iriendly cotiyors. jmsn wiueiy uinereiit uusiness uctivitie, Lord Tennyson remarked of a certain j.oadou society, it is a place wherj, in tho tolerant attrition of differing opinions, discussion "ovolves light without heat." "Gentlemen." said Hamilton, in ono of that serior. of groat speeches which ho made in tho Now York convention, speeches tilled with an unrivaled forensic eloquence, the spirit of which has been so inspiriugly embodied by tho artist iu tiiis bronze, "Gentlemen," said he, "iu my roasonings ou the subject of government I rely more on tho intorests and opinions of men than upon any speculative parchment provisions whatever." No one know better than ho tho importance of chartered rights au.l written constitutions. But he Knew ami prociaimeu mac tuey require in successful administration the sanction of intelligent public opinion, and tho support of enlightened public sentiment.

Tho caauing industries wore complotely wrecked, all the factories being oither badly damaged or utterly dostroyed. Much of tho damage at tho back bay was causod by a section of several huudrod feot of tho railroad bridge, which was swopt away at Springs, washing up against tho buifdings ani crushing thorn like wgg shells.

Tha damage was not confined alono to the waior front, but all through tho oity, in every direction, tho etToets of tho storm can bo seon ia fallen trees, funces and here and thoro a house partially unroofed. The vslocity of tho wind at tho height of the storm must havo Leon at least 100 miles per hour.

The Baptist church steeple was blown down and tho bell cracked. Tho breakwater at tho lighthouse washed away but tho tower was not damaged. At Deer island, just opposite Biloxi, over forty head of emtio wero drowned. When the storm came up. which was a genuine cyclone, there wero many Biloxi boats in tho Louisiana marsh, oyster fishing, and it is almost curtain that in many cases a uumbor, if not all, of thoir boats have gone down with all oa board.

Charles Polaex of Biloxi as assistant. At this point tlie fullest strngth ot the storm was developed, resulting not only in tho almost complete destruction of all buildings oh, the island, but in a fearful loss of life. The velocity of the wind reached 100 miles per hour. The building aud pier known as the disinfecting plant, supplied with all the modern appliances for the thorough disinfection of vessels from infected portu, is a complete loss, everything lining washed away, while the other buildings on tho island are more or loss damaged and uninhabitable. Tho largflst house connected with the main station was also canted away.

Tho following persons aro missing and it ia almost certaiu they are drowned: steward L. A. Duckert of New Orleans, Nurse Mclveuzle of Mobile, Soaman Muller of Amsterdam and two patlouts, ono named Lazcn of tho steamship Kavensdalo and Georgo B.

Nolther of these patieuts, however, were suffering from any contagious disease and there was no disease and there was no disease of tnat character existing at the quarantine.

Tho buildings oa tho island were located so far apart tnat thera was no communication aud it was impossible for the occupants to render assistance to one another. The lighthouse is also wrecked to such aa extent that the lightuonso keeper has abandoned it.

Then tho executive committoo presented the following resolution, which was adopted: Uesolved, That we condemn these unfaithful public servants and their political masters, and that in our opinion tho only means by which the community can hope to achieve a truo reform system of government for tho advancement of tbo public interest is through an independent reform uiovoment; and that wo hereby indorse the action of the Brooklyn Democratic club at iti last meeting, and also indorse the platform of the Citizens' union of Kings county as one through which true reform can bo accomplished; and that we therefore co onerate with them in all efforts to overthrow the present political rinw and call upon all citizons of this ward who aro in sympatny with these principles to join with us to defeat the ring candidates at tho next election; and that at tho close of this meeting this society transforms itself into tho Citizens' union of the Tenth ward until tho close of the campaign. President Hlliman took the floor and gavn his idea of what the Citizens' union intended to do, though he said if it came to indorsing any candidate of Jacob Worth ho would have to be loft out. Mr. Hillraan said he would sooner vote for McLaughlin than Worth, and lie was not going to be mado the rag tag and bobtail of any Bepublican kite. Mr.

Bolton, a delegate from the Citizens' union, thon got up and straightoned out tho tanglo in very few words, saying the Citizens' union was going to nominate its own candidates irrespective of the llepublicans.
