Considering his , enormous

ferred to Franklin, it may be said
that the mentis of the latter fell
on Peter Cooper. The death of
the one and the birth of the other
wdrp.almost the same year, aud
ouch has through life been con-
trolled by tpe same combination
of indnstry, economy,; ingenuity,
liberality and public spirit. Gaa-
ing upou the lift? of such^ a man,
what a vuat breadth- of dcyuiup
meut it has oompassed, aud it may
be added that he has always hept
abreast of the age except whou he
was in' 'advance. He built the
first Atmrican locomotive, and
was one of the projectors of the
AUaatie cable, aud he is now pub-
licly discussing the matter, of a
ship canal. Such mon rfs Frank-
lin and Fetor Cooper' may sink
under tho flood of years, but
strictly speaking, they never get
old. He was a boy of more than
