The following is an extract of letter from a
Gentleman in Paris to his friend in PhiladeL
phia dated May 3.
As to the opinions entertained here
in relation to the hospitality, which La
F,yErrE has met with in our country,
they are various. The French papers
contain little or nothing of the detail,
which | find in the American papers
YOU have had the goodness 20 send me.
Ii is well known, however, amongst all
classes, that he has received honors
which will be remembered as long as
memory lasts. Some Of the nobility
pretend to express contempt, although
those Of contemporaries who figured
with him from the time Of the death OF
Louis XVI. to that of Bonaparic's over
throw, are more envious. There are
many, however, who do not hesitate to
pronounce his name with veneratlon
for his talents and respect for his
deeds and fame. The lover classes, for
the most part, call him IN bon Ct grand
homme-to be called good and a
great man at once, indicates rlrtuous
soul and noble actions, more with the
French than any other nation l visi-
ted La Grange, his farm, short time
since, and young girl, who resided
near it, absolutely wept like a child,
when | told her how he was esteemed
aud received in another quarter OF the
earth. She told me that the whole
neighbourhood remembered him for
his deeds of charity and benevo'ence.
Most of the Americans, and especially
the Young ones, take great pride in
talking of him to the French people,,

We had not room on Saturday to
mention that the committee on the
Washington monument have adopted
the design offered by Mr.. Strickland,
and have awarded the premium of one
hundred dollars. Washington square
is intended a. the scite of the monu-
ment, and it is understood that General
La Fayette will assist in laying this
foundation-stone early in July. The
monument will be constructed Of mar
bic, and will be one hundred and thirty
feet in height. The design is taken
from the Choragic monument at Thras-
Stylus at Athens, The base will he form
ed of a flight Of steps, on this the pedes-
tai of a square form will rest, and sur
mounting these, the main shaft or
square column will arise-it is intend
ed, at some future time, to place an
urn on the summit. The sides will
be decorated with appropriate orna-
ments, and the whole will possess an
imposing effect. The cost will be S67,-
900. Upwards Of Sll 900 are now COL

give but small mite, and it will ever

work, which undoubtedly will keep a
live those remembrances which cannot
but elicit the genuine spirit of patriot
ism. Even in the declining days of
Rome, the cry Of sedition against Ro-
man liberty, was never heard before the
monuments and amongst the statues of
departed heroes and patriots; but when
in other days, the lightning Of heaven
struck down the figure ofthe ancestor of
the tyrant Tarquin race, the people re-
