The rumr.r is revived, that the Marquis
,La Fayette, the early and steady friend
of our country, contemplates leaving
France in a few month's, with the inten
tion cf visiting the United States. As
certainly there is.no European so emi
nently, entitled to the esteem and grati
tude of Americans, so, Vrr make bold to
say there is no individual beyond the At
lantic who might expect to receive so
cordial and heartv a reception among us,
as the venerable La Faye'te. At the dar
kest period of our Revolutionary, strug
e;le,Jthe Marquis, then a youth of nine
tern, with a spirit of chivalrous enthusi
asm not to be damped by the entreaties
of friends nor curbed by the tyrannical
mandates of a Curt, bidding adieu to the
land of his nativity and all that was near
and dear to him, sacrificed ' the enjoy
ments of wealth and the privileges of
Tank, to devote himself heart and hand, to
the cause of LHjertv in the New World.
Purchasing a vessel and furnishing his
own outfit, he enarks, he reaches our
shores, and presenting himself to our
Ccpgress : .he beg permission to serve
them tvithout fray or emolument. , Noble,
disinterested, generous T,a Fayette With
an ardor that never abatrd, with an eye
tjiat never closed while danger was a
broad. an aTm that never tired in action,
and a purse that was ever open to the
wants of the government and the necessi
ties of the suffering soldiery, he fought
side by side with Washingtpk, from
the ver 1777 to the surrender of York,
in 1781 :.. ""- ,

Haying seen America entirely through
her difficulties, to . which happy and glo

returned to France in 178?, bearing with

lions of independent freemen, who, with
one voice hailed, him and while grati
tude holds a place in the hearts of Ame

; .' After they were goneilaatf for some
titiie looVTng around nHe with amazement and
lerror. AVhich ever way I turned, nothing
rnvselfin the ' mujs vast wilderness, in j
ineiiepui oi itieKrauijr season; ru
alone; surrounded: by savap? animasi..anfd
men still more savage. : I was 500 miles from
the nearjjrt Kuropean a"ettlemnt. All these
circumstances crowded at oncd on my recol
lection, jlnd I confess that my spirits began
to fall me. .t considered my fate ascertain,
and that I had no alternative buttojie down
and perish. The influence of religion, bow
ever, aided and supported me.1 reflected
that no human prudence or foresight, could
possibly have averted my present sufferings.
I was indeed a atrancrer in a strange land.
yet I was still under the protecting eye.fof
that Providence, who has condescended to
call himself? the stranger's .friend.. At this
moment, painful as my reflections were,' the
extraordinary beaut of av small moss,'in fruc
tification, irresistiDlycaijght my eye. T men
tipn this to shew, from what trifling circum
stances the mind will sometimes derive con
solation ; for though the whole plant was
not Targer than the top of one of my fingers.
I could not Contemplate the delicate confor
mation of its roots, leaves, and capsula, with
out admiration. Can that Being, thought I,
who planted, watered, and brought to per
fection, in this obscure part of the" world, a
thing which appears of so small importance,
look with unconcern upon the situation and
sufferings of creatures formed after , his own
image ? Surely not ! Inflections like these
would not allow me to despair. I started
up, and disregarding both hunger & fatigue,
travelled forwards, assured that relief was at
hand and I was not disappointed.
THE JUDGE AND BARRISTER.
The following curious dialogue, be
tween a learned judge, hnd a barrister
of high standing at the English bar, is
amusing. It occurred in the Court
of Common Pleas, held in Westmin
ster Hall oh trying a case of Insu
rance. Mr. Sergeant Taddy, counsel
for the defendant, was cross examin
ing a witness from Norwich, and ask
ed liim a question relative to some
thing that took place " after the plain
tiff, disappeared from that neighbor
hood on which
Mr. Justice, Park said that it was an im
proper tjUestion, "and ought not to have
been put,
Mr. Sergeant Taddy. That is an im
putation to which I will not submit ; I am
incapable of putting an improper question
to a witness. , - ,
Mr. Justice Park What imputation,
sir ? I desire you will nor charge me with
casting imputations. I say the question
was not properly put, for the word "dis
appear means to leave clandestinely.
Mr. Sergeant Taddy. I say it means
no such thing.
'Mr. Justice.Paric. I hope I have some
understanding left; and so far as that
goes, the word certainly bore that interpretation,-
and was therefore improper.
Mr. Sergeant Taddy I never will, sub
mit to a rebuke of ithis kind,
ji Mr. Justice Park. That is a very im
proper manner, sir, for Counsel to ad
dress the B' hch. , -
Mr. Sergeant Taddy. And that is a
very improper manner for a Judge to ad
dress Counsel. .
Mr. Justice Park (rising with some
warmth.) I protect, sir, you will compel
me tcl'do what is disagreeable to me.
Mr. Serg't Taddy (with eqnal warmth)
Do what you like my Lord. j
Mr. Justice Park (resuming his seatJ
Well, T hope I shall manifest the indul
gence of a Christian Judge.
Mr. Sergeant Taddy Ynu may exer
cise your indulgence or your power in
any way your Lordship's discretion may
suggest j it is a matter of perfect indiffe
rence to me. I am ready to submit to
whatever measure you may choose to a
ddpt. j i
Mr. Justice I'ark. t have the functions
of a Judge to. discharge, and in doing so,
I must not be reproved in this kind of way.
Mr. Sergeant Taddy. And I have a
duty tojdischargc as Counsel, which I
shall discharge as I think proper, without j
submitting to a rebuke from any quarter.!
Mr. Sergeant Lens rose to interfere ; j
Mr. Sergeant Taddy. No, brother
Lens, I must protest against this interfe
rence. ;'
Mr. Serg'eant Lens My brother Tad
dy, ray Lord, has been betrayed into some
warmth. . r . ,
Mr. Irwonf TnAA
Igeant Lens back into his seat; I again
protest against any interference on my
account; I am quite prepared to answer
for my own conduct. '
Mr. Justice Park My brother Lens,
Sir. has a right to be heard.
Mr. Sergeant Taddy Not on my ac
count, my Lord. I am fully capable of
answering for myself. f 1
V Mr. Justice Park-Has he not a right
to possess the court upon any subject he
pleases?-
Mr; Sergeant Taddy Not while I am
in possession of it ; and am now examin
ing a witness. ; I 1

in his chair, and remained silent.

cross examination.
