In the course of my endeavors 1 have written and printed more than a million of documents, which I have sent to Congress, to the President and members of the Cabinet, and to all parts of our common country. ' The burden of my theme has been to show, that the Constitution has made it the imperative duty of Congress to take and hold the entire control of all, that should ever be allowed or used as the money of the nation. If the plan, set forth in a petition to Congress, to the President and his Cabinet on the 14th of December, 1862, in which I showed, that my ideas of finance were based on the opinions of such men as Franklin, Jefferson, Madison, Calhoun, Webster, etc., whose words and warnings I quoted--as I do in this document--had been adopted, the Government would have all the means it wanted in Treasury notes, and we should not have an enormous bonded debt in 1882." A MONUMENT TO PETER COOPER. The glory of the nation consists chiefly in tlie virtues and achievements of its founders, whether it be a monarchy, an empire, or a republic. It becomes the duty of all writers and teachers of the young, to inculcate the excellence of their examples, and to preserve a lively memory of their noble deeds. Where this duty is neglected, a great wrong is done to the dead, the living, and the future. For this purpose all histories should be written, and all monuments erected. To secure this result all nations have held anniversaries, commemorating with joy the days of their birth, and executed great works of art in oil, marble, and bronze, erected temples and columns, and, above all, institutions of science and learning, and, to those worthy of it, gorgeous mausoleums adorn churches and burial-places. No nation in the whole...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life and Character of Peter Cooper Many a time during my somewhat prolonged author ship, have I been called on to portray the lives of the great and good with whose acquaintance and friendship I had been honored. But never have I responded to such a request with so much alacrity and cheerfulness, as when I was asked to pay some literary Tribute to my beloved friend, the late peter cooper. I knew him well for more than a quarter of a century, and my veneration and love for him grew with every year. And now, when some of the illusions of life have faded for me, and all of them for him, and I survey him robed in his fadeless garments beyond the tomb, I can not withhold from him the unbidden homage: Hail! Thou purest and noblest of men! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: ...at the price he had oifered, from iron. running directly from the blast furnace, there would be a great saving of expense, a saving of something like one-quarter of the cost, which would amount to several hundred thousand dollars for the pipes required. "As the municipal authorities finally coincided with me, I made it my business, as fast as the pipes began to arrive, to be very particular that a process of testing the strength of each pipe should be made, to be sure that it was perfect. This was done by closing the ends of each pipe, and then bringing hydraulic pressure to bear, equal to three hundred pounds to every square inch: thus no weak or imperfect pipe was allowed to pass into use. The wisdom of that process of testing has been fully exemplified and continued in practice, so that we have had comparatively little trouble from the bursting of pipes. "The next great difficulty we had to contend with was to secure a process by which all the hydrants should be so constructed that they could be conveniently drained of all their water, so that when wanted they would not be found frozen in winter. Various projects were offered, but it was some time before we could find one free from all kinds of objections. " It has often been suggested that we could use salt water, which is so abundant all round our city, and many people have thought it strange that this has not been done for extinguishing fires, and washing the streets. But such persons do not realise the great cost the city would have to incur in laying down another set of pipes in addition to those which already occupy our streets so fully that it is difficult now to find a place to lay any more. And besides, they scarcely think of the injury salt water would do to...

Download or read book Peter Cooper written by Rossiter Raymond and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-08-20 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DURING the last decade of Peter Cooper's life, the writer of this biographical sketch enjoyed some degree of intimacy with him, as professional adviser and traveling companion, and also, incidentally, as consulting engineer of the firm of Cooper and Hewitt, and manager of a department in the Cooper Union. This circumstance, together with the preference kindly expressed by Mr. Cooper's family, doubtless influenced the selection of the writer for the honorable task of preparing this book,—a task which was welcome as a labor of love, though the execution of it has been hindered and impaired by the demands of other duties. The real difficulty has been to compress within the prescribed limits a story covering so many years and so many topics, yet not possessing those features of dramatic action or adventure which could be treated briefly, with picturesque effect.
