Having given Hatch's Varnish Soap fair
trial, we can recommend it for the purposes
for which it is manufactured. 1t is a new
article, adapted to cleaning and polishing
silver, brass, britannia, mirrors, paint, win
dow glass, tin ware, etc. For railroad men,
engineers and all mechanics, it is invaluable
for washing hands. All that it is advertised
to do it will accomplish with a fraction OF the
labor required in the use of ordinary soap,
and with slight expense. This soap is manu-
factured by Cyrus Hatch, Bath, Me-, to whom
orders for the same should be addressed.

From the Richmond Wing.
General Lafayette.

1t was often remarked of General
Lafayette, when he was on his tour
through the United States, in 1924, that
he possessed, in a very extraordinary de-
gree, the faculty of recognizing at a
glance his old comrades in arms, whom
he had not seen for more than fifty
years. He could call by name as well
the privates in the ranks as the highest
officers of the line.
The following incident was related to
me in the year 1882, by the late Judge
Brooke, of the Court Of Appeals Of this
State, who had been a captain in the war
of the Revolution:
Whilst Lafayette was in Richmond,
a guest of Virginia, an obscure indi-
vidual living in Person county N. C..
who was known in the Revolutionary
army as Sergeant Hood, who belonged
to the company commanded by Cap.
tain Brooke, and who, on account OF
his singular daring and uniform good
conduct, was pet This officers, visited
the Capital for the purpose of greeting
his old commanding general.
Judge Brooke said that on walking
across the Capitol Square one morning
he met an old man who enquired Of
him if he could direct him to the quar-
tiers of General Lafayette, adding that
he had fought under him when he was
youth, and had come one hnndredand
fifty miles to see him. Before the Judge
had time to respond, the stranger said
to him: as not this Captain Brooke to
whom I am talking?"
On receiving an affirmative answer,
he said, "You do not appear to recog-
nize me; ! am Sergeant Hood, who be-
longed to your company during the
Revolutionary war" The Judge told
me that he was Immediately filled with
the most pleasant recollections Of the
sergeant's many deeds of valor per-
formed under his own inspection, that
he gave him cordial grasp, and went
with him to Lafayettes room.
On entering, and before word was
spoken by any enc else, the Marquis,
who was in a remote part of the room,
eagarly approached the strange old man,
and exclaiming, Sergeant Hood, fell
on his neck and wept tears of joy.
He recognized this humble private
in an instant, and recounted some Of his
deeds Of daring to the astonished com
pany.
That he should have recognized any
of his brother officers, after separation
of more than half a century, during
which time they must have undergone
the usual change wrought in ones APP
pearance by old age, whilst his own eyes
must have grown DIM was matter
of no little surprise, but that he should
have hailed an humble private in the
ranks, by name, excited the astonish-
ment of all who were present.
The Judge remarked that it was one
of the most agreeable and joyful re-
| unions in which he ever participated.
