GALESA Illinois. January l. lSi5.


The article in a nulaber of the Tribune before
me, Gratitude to Henry Clay brings 20 my
mind subject which has been much thought Of
by the Wings even here in this extreme corner
of besottcd Loco Foco State. 1t is to build
grand National Edifca TO show TO future gene
rations the sentiments Of profound admiration
and regard which were entertained for The genius,
talents, eloquencc, moral worth, private virtue
and public services OF


HENRY CLAY.


VIII not The Wing Members Of Congress, at
the present Session, take this matter into consd-
Grafton and act upon it. and give some direction
to the universal sentiment of the Wing party
throughout this great nation. a Million ot DOT
lars could easily be raised among the wings
of the Union :cr the erection OF n splendid
edifce to the honor and glory of Mr. Clay, IN
either New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, or
Washington. That sum would build an edtticc
that would rival in splencor and beauty the ce.e
brated Church OF the Madeleine at Pans, de-
signed 10 be erected as Il Temple Of Glory by
" the Emperor Napoleon 10 the Soldiers OF TIE
Grand Army" In the interior | would have In
sc;ibed on tablets Of marble tho names CT all
those patriotic and distinguished Wings who Ia
bored so devotcdly in the late contest would
also have deposited there all the flags, banners,
standards and cclors used by the Wings all over
the Union in the late Campaign.


AS poor az am, and LIVING 20 ss remote ccr
ner of the Uncn ns Go, VII give fifty dollars
for sach en- object, and there are others here who
would checruy do as much Or moIe.


Will you continue TO urge something Of ibe
kind Yours truly.
