Welcome Fayette! .. - To the land that was won, In part by your valor, From slavery's chain And that well we remember The deeds you have done, You shall feel when you tread On our green shores again. Our last sun shall set Before wc forget With Washington snair.e Still to join La Fayette! Yes, the hero who bled That our clime might be free As dear as the blood of Our bosoms shall be. When the storm clouds of war Gathered black in the West, At the first shout of "Freedom!" That burst through the gloom, ' He left the bright home Youth and. beauty had blest, To league with our fathers To share in their doom ! And when roll'd afar Was the tempest of war, And the Eagle triumphant Soar'd proud o'er each star, He sought no rewards No advantage to find, But the sweet peace that virtue Imprints on the mind. Then welcome, Fayette! And while gratitude burns In hearts that have always Been faithful as free While one recollection Of peril returns In the memory of millions Immortal shall be, The hero and sage Who, in youth and in age, Has been Liberty's champion Through life's every stage. Not a voice in the wide realm You loved will forget To join the loud chorus of Welcome Fayette! tations.be entertained, they can not be realized, hat there will be accommodations-from other sources is not questioned: The military it is expected will brin" with them their field equi page; steam boats and vessels of various descriptions will af ford accommodation to many; the town will do what it can; and it is believed no alloy will be found in the patriotic joy which will be excited by the occasion. Yorktown, iQug. 1 G, 1821. Gen. La Fayette and Col. ivillet. Alter the ceremony of embracing and congratulation were over, he sat down along side of Col. Willet, who grew young again and fought all his battles over. "Do you re member," said he, "at the bat tle of Monmouth, I was volun tceraid to Gen. Scott! I saw rou in the heat of battle. You were but a boy, but you were a serious and sedate lad. Aye, aye; I remember well. And on the Mohawk, I sent you 50 Indians, and you wrote me, that they set up such a yell that they frightened the British horses, and they ran one way and the Indians another. La Fayette. Whilst Gen eral La Favette visits at New York, an Carman in his frock, elderly applied for admittance, and was refused. He declared he would not go away without speaking to the General, and at length got into the room. Waiting a favorable moment, he went up to the Ge neral, and opening the breast of his frock, asked it he knew him. The General recognized ihim, called him by name, and extended his hand, saving, "Yes, vou assisted me off the field of battle, when wounded." Maxim.

York Town, where it is pro posed to commemorate that im portant event, in our revolu tionary annals, which sealed rhe charter of American Liber ty, is a small village, lying im mediately on the banks of York River; its situation is high, dry, airy, and salubrious, it affords, to the lover of nature's beauties, water and inland scenery, not surpassed by any spot in Vir- i j. & raisin m F miars !teward lnnr as historv is read, and CJTOLEN out of my lot, on th will hp dear to freemen because night of the 30th July last, a will be dear to ireemen, oecausc ; a j dark bay j IOrse, upwards it is consecrated to liberty, by . of 5 fcet high,'6 or 7 years old, a the swords of a Fayette and a large star in his forehead, trots Washington.

II UN A WAY , or was stolen from fc the Subscriber, on the nisht of the 8th instant, a bright mulatto woman (slave) and her child, a girl of about four years old. This wo man ran away from the Subscriber, executor ol John. Hunt, deceased, in the summer of 1808, and passed as a free woman, bv the name of PATSEY YOUNG, until about the first of June lust, when she was apprehended as a runaway. On the sixth of the same month I ob tained possession of her in the. town of Halifax, since which time she and her child ELIZA have,, in compliance with an. order of the county court of Franklin, been sold, when the Subscriber became the purchaser. She spent the greater part of the time she was runaway (sav about sixteen years') in the neighborhood of, and in the town of Halifax, one or two summers at Rocklanding, where I am informed she cooked for the hands employed to work on the canal; she also spent some of her time in Plv mouth, her occupation while there not known.1 At the above named places she has many acquaintances and friends. She is a tall, spare woman, thin face and lips, long sharp nose, her fore teeth in a state ol decay. She is an excellent seam stress, can make gentlemen's and ladies' dresses, is a good cook and weaver, and I am informed is a good cake baker and brewer, Sec. by which occupations she princi pally gained her living. Some time during last summer she married a free man of color, named Achracl Johnson, who had been living in and about Plymouth, and followed boating on the Roanoke. Since his marriage he leased a farm cf Mi James Cotton, of Scotland Neck, (Halifax county) where he wasliv mg, together with this woman, when she was taken up as a runa way slave in June last. I have but little doubt that Jehnson has con trived to seduce or steal her and child out of my possession, and will attempt to get them out of the state and pass as free persons. Should this be the case, 1 will give Sixtxj Five Dollars for his detection and conviction before the proper tribu nal in any part oi this state. 1 will give for the apprehension of the woman and child, on their dtliverv to me, or so secured in jail or other wise that I get them, Thirty Five Dollars. Or, I will give livcnty J'ive Dsllars lor the woman alone and Ten Dollars Tor the child alone The proper name of the woman is Piety, but she will no doubt change it as she did before. 1 forewarn all owners of boats, captains and owners of vessels from taking on board or carrying away this wo man and her child Eliza, "under the penalty of the law.

Suita ble preparations, it is believed, will be made for the accommo dation of GENERAL LA FAY ETTE... .The white population of the village it is believed, cannot reach three hundred, none of that population wealthy, some few onlv independent.
