The Surrender of CORVALLIS.
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:

Az thc Huitor VI lne Evenlng Star:
desire to call your attention to small
mfsstatement occurring in the very inter-
esting account OF the proposed statue in
memory OF Count de Rochambeau, pub
lished Saturday. April 20. 1t is made to
appear that an opportunity was afforded
the Marquis de Lafayette to receive the
surrender of the army of Lord CornwalIis
at Yorktown. The impression is created
that the surrender was hasty one, and
that Gen. Washington hurried to the scene
and received the sword Of CORVALLIS.
Authentic historians relate that pro-
posals for surrender were made by Corn
wallis directly to Gen. Washington The
surrender was not hasty, but was accom-
piished after a prolonged armistice and an
interval Of two days elapsed between the
beginning of negotiations for surrender
and the actual capitulation
Although the surrender was made by
Lord CORVALLIS, yet he did not in person
attend the seremony OF surrender nor did he
give up his sword to Gen. Washington. The
British commander was indiSposed, we are
told, and sent Gen. OHara to surrender
the garrison of Yorktown: and We are
further told that Gen. Washington referred
O'Hara to Maj. Gen. LINCOLN, whom he
had designated to receive the surrender of
the British army. Reliable historians who
stick closely to facts do not mention any
surrender of the British officers sword
The ceremony was conducted with the
characteristic impressive dignity of Wash
