Here is new ;,lrcdote of Webster.
1t was told by the late Col. Munford.
wno weis ut one time secretary of the
Virginia commonwealth s4,nd lit has
never been published: Col. Munford
was in his Office ut the state house one
d,yiAvhema distinguished looking man,
accompanied by. y young lady, came in
and asked il they could See the legisla-
tive chambers. Col. Munford at once
recognized, from portraits he had seen,
the face of Webster, and, wishing to
. SEQ as smuehaof the great statesman as
possibles coffcrcd ao oaacsempany him
j through the stnte-hoise. The young
lady seemed to be u relative of Web
ster. and was very bright and piquant
in her conversation. There was a
constant fire of clever repartee be-
tween the two, and when the party
reached the senate chamber tho young
lady, turning to him, exclaimed:
"Now, everybody says you are a great
man, and can make II speech without
any preparation. | want you to prove
it." As she said this she moved to the
uth, anu Neoohtl PoSSCsoAoh Va oao

please come to order The gentleman
from Massachusetts has the floor. y
Webster said Col. Munford. relat-
ing the incident. took. as If by in
stinct, the most favorable position in
/ the room. so that his voice could best
be heard, and for ten Or fifteen min
utes hc spoke with an eloquence ! have

Virginia's past, and, abiding especial
ly to her distinguished sons, he pointed
Z, out their portraits N that hung on the

Col. .Munford frequently told his friends
