ASECDOTE OF GENERAL WASH
INGTON.

Washington had accepted an invitation
from Arnold to breakfast with him at Wesl
Point on the very day the plot was discover
ID, but was prevented from keeping his en-
gasement by what men cali chanee-by the
earnest request, namely, Of an old officer.
near whose station they passed, to spend
the night there and inspect some works IN
the ueighborhood. Next day, while Wash
ington, with his staff, including La Fayette,
we're seated atatabIe at this officer 5 quarter
a despatch was brought to the American
general, which he Immediately opened and
Rad, then laid it down without comment.
No alteration was visible in bis countenanoe
but he remained perfectly silent. Conver-
sation dropped among bis suite; and, after
some minutes, the general, beekoning La
Fayette to follow him, passed to an inner
apartment turned to his young friend with
out uttering syllable, placed the fatal des-
match in his hands, and then, giving way 10
an uugovernable burst of feeling, fellon his
pe,k and sobbed aloud. The effect produ
ced on the young French marquis, accus
romed to regard his general teold and dig
nified in bis usual manner) as devoid Of the
usual weaknesses OF humanity, may bC
imagined II believe, said La Fayette ii
relating this anecdote, that this was the
only occasion, throughout that long anc
sometimes hopeless struggle, that Washing
ron ever gave way, even for moment, IN
der a reverse of fortune; and perhaps wa
he only human being who ever witnessed II
him 40 exhibition of feeling so foreign to hi'
temperament. As it was, he recovered
himself before l had perused the eommunt
cation that had given rise to his emotion
and when we returned to his staff not I
trace remained on his countenance either o
grief or dependency. Feb. No. of Lip

one cannot help thinking. The adaptations

Of happiness 50 manifold and so rich Yet
how often-how miseFably sometimes-it
all miscarries ! The waters Of Paradise
turned to fountains Of bitterness-the gifts
