Foote then asked him what he thought
OF Mr.. Webster's manner. he replied,
that it was always grand and impressive;

How WASHINGTON TOLD THE STORY TO LAFAYETTE
Robert Dale Owen writes in the Atlantic that
he spent a week with General Lafayette in
France, and from him learned this incident OF
washington's conduct after discovering the
treachery by Arnold:
1.-THE usual version is that he communicated
the portentous news to Generals Knox nd La
fayette jointly, but that is an error state
ment made to me by the latter, during Whr jour-
ney to La Grange. surprised and interested me
at the time, and has remained indelibly Impress
cd on my memory 1t was this When WASH
ington sat down to dinner no unusual emotion
was visible on his countenance. He was grave
and silent, but no more 80 than often happened
when recent tidings from the army occupied his
thoughts. At the close Of the meal he beckoned
apartment, turned to his young friend without
uttering syllable, placed the fatal dispatch in his
hands, and then, giving way to an ungoyerDable
burst of feeling fell ON Lis neck and sobbed
aloud. The effect produced on the French Mar
qus, accustomed to regard the General, cold and
dignifed in his manner, as devoid OF the common
weaknesses of humanity may be imagined.
believe said Lafayette to me in relating this
ecdote, that this was the only occasion through
out the long and sometimes hopeless struggle
that Washington ever gave way, even for a mo-
ment under reverse of fortune and, perhaps,
| am the only human being who ever witnessed
in him an exhibition OF feeling 30 foreign TO his
temperament. AS it was, he recovered himself
before had perused the communication that had
given rise to his excitement, and when we re-
turned to the staff not trace remained in his
demeanor either of grief or dependency"
