8. Personal matters : individuals appealing to the public, including the memoir published in 1826 by President Monroe of his claims on the General Government for indemnity while Minister to France, and his recall in 1794 by President Washington. This document opens all the minutiæ of an envoy's expenses, his labors, sacrifices, effect of show, and other incidents, honestly related in connection with the office.
9. Judicial varieties : impeachment of judges; defence; legislative action; appeals by parties litigant to public opinion ; strictures on the courts; divorce-cases in high life, &c.
10. Political fireworks,-and herein of conventions, platforms, cam-

paign-speeches, articles, documents, and the machinery of Presidential elections ; pictures of negro voters, wooden-leg soldiers, and Mr. Van Buren in conversation ; Ogles's celebrated speech of eighty-eight closely- printed pages, ostensibly about the extravagance at the White House in 1840, but a perfect reservoir of slang, fun, persecution, and party zeal, the most singular, if not infamous, production ever imposed on the country, except the coon-speech of Duncan of Ohio, a twin-brother in filth, illus- trated with a variety of cuts,-both preserved as a warning to all future politicians who may desire public respect, living or dead. The number of speeches in Congress, public meetings, and from all quarters and by all sorts of men, is quite voluminous. The talents, information, and taste of men are here exhibited as in a mirror. Big men and little men of both parties figure in this department.
11. Van Buren and the defalcations of the Government, by S. S. Prentiss and other commentators on his life and principles; with a multitude of publications showing up the "Northern Man with Southern Feelings ;" the army of 200,000 men, and the Whig attacks on that measure ; negro testimony, and divers other sins dressed out for the public eye. All these trophies of the campaign of 1840 are hung out more for public amusement than for approval in 1855.
12. Biographies of candidates : attacks and vindications; party mad- ness, slanders against Mr. Clay collected, especially in the " Star-Spangled Banner," in octavo form, published at Nashville, 1844. Other public men shared the bitterness and injustice evolved in party warfare, as the pamphlets fully prove.
13. The "Crisis" papers,-showing the unhappy state of public affairs since 1828,-the Government expiring every year. Many notes and pitches of this tune, with conclusive arguments to justify the prediction. Tables of profit and loss submitted, establishing the result. Under this head the exertions of mind are intense, -systems and men pulled down and built up profusely,-the ins and outs explaining, reversing, and acting as the ballot-box seemed to preponderate.
14. Eulogies on public benefactors,-including some of the addresses on the death of Adams, Jefferson, and Carroll, and other eminent patriots, the later Presidents, &c. Also public discourses on special occasions,- death of public men, officers of colleges, ministers of the gospel, &c.
15. Texas documents: her Declaration of Independence; names of signers; Constitution; early laws; overtures in 1837 to annex, and rejec- tion by Mr. Van Buren ; Mr. Tyler's treaty ; various speeches and letters on annexation. Also, diplomacy with Mexico, and war-documents com- plete.
16. Secret Societies,-Masonic, Odd-Fellows, Sons of Temperance, and other movements of the like kind, as shown by public addresses; with something of the early history of the temperance-reform in Georgia.
17. Narratives and travels in Eastern countries, European sketches, expeditions to Oregon, the Rocky Mountains, sights in California, explo- rations of South America, national surveys, Pacific Railroad. In this division may be introduced the autobiography of Stilling, counsellor to the Grand Duke of Baden, published by the Harpers in 1844,-one of the best things ever printed.
18. State papers touching many public questions,-army, navy, home squadron, mail-steamers, national academy, internal improvement, public lands, the Indian tribes, foreign relations, northeastern boundary, the Caro-

APPENDIX.
line, French difficulties, a critical review of Judge Cowen's opinion in the McLeod case, special instructions, &c.
19. Controversial tracts on theology, church government, freedom of opinion ; and also a great number of political essays, including Prof. Dew on the abolition of slavery, 1833, reviewing the Virginian debates on that subject soon after the Southampton tragedy. The learned professor exa- mines into the origin and necessity of domestic servitude as it has existed in all ages and countries,-the whole question treated in a liberal, philo- sophic spirit.
20. Literary exchanges,-chiefly the letters and communications of M. Vattemare to establish a system of international exchanges of books, maps, documents, and productions of art between different countries ; foreign criticisms on American institutions, &c.
21. Farmer's library, almanac, and other illustrated pamphlets, repre- senting improved breeds of stock, poultry, new agricultural implements, sundry mechanical inventions, curious machinery for plantation-use, &c. The writings of Skinner, Ruffin, Buel, Peters, Fitzholdt, Liebig, and others of that high class appear in this collection, in part; also, Thaer's Principles of Agriculture,-a profound treatise, embracing first principles and special directions.
22. Scientific researches,-including articles on the coal-fields, geology, mineral deposits, and ancient relics in several States of the Union; ana- lysis of mineral waters; and also addresses and papers on agricultural che- mistry, on fossils, sea-shells in the interior, with fragments collected from many quarters, simplifying the universe of matter. Lardner's Lectures, and the "Naturalist," by Dr. Troost, range under this head.
23. Medley papers, -- such as Mckenzie on Van Buren, Hoyt & Com- pany, Joe Cowell's Thirty Years among the Actors, records of sundry trials, evidence, letters more or less racy touching family disputes made public. The case of the "Six Militia-Men" executed by order of Gen. Jackson (after a court-martial finding them guilty) in 1815, and published in 1828 to injure his election to the Presidency, appears in this collection. The Medley papers consist of a great variety, some very rare and piquant, -sketches of life in the large cities,-with a good deal of Harper's pamphlet literature ten or fifteen years ago.
24. Health Repository,-embracing speculations on diseases both of mind and body, verified by cases on the humbug principle, to sell reme- dies, books, &c. Much that is curious, learned, philosophic, and absurd may be found here, not excepting mesmerism and phrenology.
25. Newspaper-files, reviews, &c., bound into volumes. With the ex- ception of one news-file, the numbers are not regular in all instances. Single papers preserved many years for an important article or communi- cation, or other matter deemed interesting at the time, have been put in the same binding. Some of these include Milledgeville papers thirty years old. The reviews are less broken, though they do not extend so far back.
I have alluded to my success in forming a library on this plan, not to secure any benefit to myself, but to influence others, especially young men, who often obtain pamphlets, and after perusing give them away or permit them to be destroyed. I have lost many in this fashion. Three I particularly regret,-the addresses of Judge Berrien and Clayton before the college societies at Athens in 1828, and the speech of Mr. Wilde on the Tariff in 1832, containing that beautiful sketch of distinguished men

-Lowndes, Pinkney, Randolph, Calhoun, Clay, Webster, Forsyth, Gas- ton, and others-whom he found in the House of Representatives when he first entered Congress, in 1816. The materials I have drawn together in the fifty volumes are sufficient to construct a history of almost any kind. They are too valuable to remain useless in my hands ; and, to make them serviceable to others, I have an idea of presenting them after a while to some literary institution in Georgia, or to some historical society. For the present, I often refer to them for facts and reading which I can procure nowhere else of so entertaining a character.
When I heard of a discourse or other publication which I could not find on sale, or otherwise obtain, I usually wrote to the author, stating my ob- ject, and was always treated with civility. My last letter of this descrip- tion was to the Hon. Rufus Choate, of Boston, and I subjoin a copy to testify my admiration of his great ability. The discourse referred to is one of the noblest in the language. My objections to it, and to the sub- limity of genius, are made known in the letter, and will be appreciated by all who, like myself, dwindle as a taper in presence of the sun.
-, September 25, 1853.
DEAR SIR :- I have just finished reading, in the National Intelligencer, your discourse on Mr. Webster before Dartmouth College. Allow me, a stranger, to express the opinion, everywhere entertained, that your effort has not only vindicated the pre-eminence of the dead, but has secured to yourself a fame which needed no addition to make it second only to that of your illustrious subject in all the elements of character which you so happily brought to public view as constituting his peculiar greatness.
I am glad, yet almost sorry, that you executed the task enjoined on you. By grouping the qualities of Mr. Webster in such masterly con- nection, you have completed a picture to awe by its magnificence and to discourage even the noblest ambition. For who, after being filled, as I have been to-day, with wonder at the gifts and triumphs alike of the dead and the living, can hope to attract even a passing notice in the temple already occupied by two such colossal figures,-one the subject, and the other the author, of the discourse?
The object of this note is to solicit from you a copy in pamphlet-form for preservation in a bound volume with other addresses on which I set a high value. Excuse the liberty I have taken, and especially for using language which you may consider in bad taste. The fact is, sir, you have bewildered me by the affluence of your intellectual stores; and I claim in- dulgence on that ground.
With high respect, your obedient servant,
This synopsis of the author's collection of pamphlets was sent in a printed slip to Mr. Choate, who acknowledged it in a very obliging letter in his own handwriting,-in other words, in a set of hieroglyphics baffling the best skill in law, medicine, literature, counting-house, and experts in penmanship to decipher. A citizen of Boston travelling South, on being shown the letter, informed the author that no one at home pretended to make out Mr.

APPENDIX.
Choate's writing but his own office-clerks or private secretary, to whom recourse was had on most occasions.
Several squibs have lately been going the rounds of the news- papers relative to Mr. Choate's penmanship, of which two are here given :-
A LAWYER'S DISFRANCHISEMENT .- The Fitchburg Reveille expresses a fear that Rufus Choate cannot stand the writing-test which it is pro- posed to incorporate in the Constitution of Massachusetts. It knows of an instance in which a Board of Lyceum-Directors were unable to tell, by the answer of that distinguished gentleman, whether or not he had accepted their invitation to lecture, after a laborious and vain effort to decipher his scrawl.
A lawyer recently attempted to palm himself off as Rufus Choate in a neighboring town. At the suggestion of a printer who was present, the "writing-test" was applied to him. He wrote a legible sentence, and was promptly kicked out of the company.
By the aid of several literary friends, the following translation has been resolved upon :-
BOSTON, 26th January, 1855.
STEPHEN F. MILLER, Esq.
DEAR SIR :- I do not know how your very kind letter lingered so long on the way; but it has only just now arrived, or been seen by me, and I lose not a moment in thanking you for it. Your collection of pamphlets [in fifty bound volumes] is, or one hundred years hence will be, priceless. What would we not give for that innumerous brood which attests the teeming mind and emotions in America from 1783 to 1787 ? The few in the American Museum are inestimable. Poor Wilde! I heard his sketch of the Congress of 1816,-the strongest collection of men since 1789.
I mourn that I also, twenty years ago, did not begin this kind of hus- bandry ; and, indeed, it is one of "the good intentions" which pave the broad and downward road to begin to do it still.
Your kindness toward my eulogy puts me out of countenance. But how much I loved him [Webster] no language may express, and how his death has disenchanted the world for me I dare not confess. I beg to send you another copy, and I now send you one to-day.
I am, most truly, your obedient servant,
RUFUS CHOATE.
