Our Captain went in and vas introduced by Governor Troup; then the Captain introduced the three Revolutionary veterans, William Duffel, John Shine, and Charles Raley, to General Lafayette, who on eing Father Duffel, cordially em braced him, saying, *1 remember you of my bodyguard, and helped to carry me from the field when 1 was wounded at Brandywine; I am happy to see you." “Two tables, each about one hun dred yard- lung, with cross-tables of fifty ft-- : tiu ends, were covered with b: me ciu*, roast beef, bread and othe f i- “At , upper end, in the center.

General Lafayette must have esteemed it a special compliment to himself for such renown to be transferred to France in the pres ence of such an a-sembtage of wit nesses. Whether the mistake accidental or otherwise, it did not detract in the slighest degree from the valor or integrity of General Clarke. At most it only signified that his youth wa a spent in fighting the battles of his country, instead of being enervated within the walls of a College. "It should be remembered that be fore the military retired from the square they were formed into line, and Governor Lafayette, leaning the arm of Governor Troup, walked along a little lame, and shook hands with every man, officer and private, Colonel Jones officiating in the introduction. The author was men tioned to him as 'Sergeant M— the response was, 'Sergeant M- am very glad to see you.' This joy was expressed to all, and was more than reciprocated by all the volun teers. The hand of General fnyette had been grasped—that was glory enough then. It ia still a pleasant. (Ktnpmb^anee| fbut thirty vears of hardship in the camp of life have rather tended to prove, to the author at least, that glory is not communicated in so easy and simple a manner." Editorial Note.
