‘Va perceive that the ‘eloquent (we speak

gyr-ic) address of Professo‘rEver'ett, deliverd
at Cambridge, is published in Boston, and
,r_riay -be expected here shortly. The
following are the closing passages (copied in-
to the Boston Courier) which frillyjristify the
opinions expressed by. all who heard it, that it
was one ofthe most impressive and able ad-
dresses ever deliver'e'd in t ris and we may add‘
in airy country., This testimony borne to the
talents ofthe orator by tlre'feeliti'gs of a most
irrunerorrs and select audience, will be fully
supported by tliejudguieut of the’-country.
“ Yes, my friends, Such is the cxhortation
which calls on us to‘ exert our powers, to em-
ploy otir time,- and consccrate our labours in
the cause of our native land. \'Vhen' we,e'n'-

of his wandering ; when we behold him for-

“ In that high romance, if rorriarrce it be,
‘in which the great tnindsof antiquity sketch-
'ctl the fortunes ofthe ages to come, they 3-,}:-
tured to themselves a favored region beyond
the ocean, at land of equal laws and happy
men. The primitive poets beheld it in the
islands ofthe blest; the Doric bards surveyed
if in the Hyperborean regions; the sage of
the academy placed it in the lost Atlantis ;——
and even the sterner spirit of Seneca could
discern a fairer abode oflrnniarrity, in distant
regions then unknown. _\Ve look back upon
these uninspired predictions, and. almost re-
coil from the obligations they imply. By its
most llltlse fair visions be realized, by us must
be fulfilled these high auspices, which burst
in trying hours from the longing hearts of the
clrarrrpions oftruth, There are no urore cori-
tinents or worlds to be revealed; Atlantis
l-t:-tth arisen front the ocean, the farthest Thule
is reached, there are no nrore retreats beyond
the sea, no triore discoveries, no more hopes.
Here then a mighty work is to be fulfilled, or
never, by the race ofrnortals. The inan,who
looks with tenderness on the srrfferirrgs of
good‘ men in other times; the descendant of
the pilgrims, \\h0 cherishes the memory of
his fathers; the patriot, who feels an honest
glow at the nrajcsiy ofthe systeui of which he
is a member; the scholar, who beholtls with
rapture the long sealed book ofunprejudiccd
tr-uth expanded to all to read; these are they,
liynliotrr these auspices are to be accomplish-
ed‘. Yes, bretlrren, it is, by the intellect ofthe
country, that the rrriglity rriass is to be-iuspir-
ed ; that its parts are to conriirttriicate and
S_)'lll[)EillllZC‘, its bright "progress to be adorned
with-bccorrrirrg relinen r ‘, its strong sense
littered, its character r ed, its feelings in-
fcrpreted to its own chi p, to other regions,
and to after ages. .\c__
Meantime the years are passing away and
gatlrering importance in their corirse. With
the present year will be completed the half
century from that most important era in liu-
rnan history, the comnrenceuient ofonr revo-
lutionary war. The jubilee of otrr national‘
existence is at hand. The space oftirne, that
has elapsed from that momentous date, has
laid down in the drist, wlrich the blood oftna-
'ny ofthern has already hallowed, most of the
great men to whom, under Providence, we
owe our iratiorral existcrrce and privileges. A
few still survive among us, to .reap the rich
fruits oftheir labors and stiiferings ', and ONE
has yielded himselfto the united voice ofa
people, and returned in his age to receive the
gratitude ofthe nation, to wlrorri he devoted
his youth. It is recorded on the pages of A-
merican history, that when this friend ofonr
t,ou:rr ry applied to our conituissiouers at Paris,
in 1776, for a passage iii the first ship they
shoulrl despatch to America. they were oblig-
ed to answer lrirn,(-so low atrd abject was then
our dear native l'aud,) that they had not the
incaiis nor the credit strliicictrt for providing a
Single vessel in all the ports ofFrancc. Then
exclaimed the youthful hero, ‘I will providt-.
my own ;’ audit is a literal fact, that when all
"America was too poor tooliicr him so rriuclr
as a passage to her shores, he left, in his terr-
der _votrth, the bosom of home, of happiness,
of wealth, of rank, to plunge in the blood aritl
dust ofonr inauspicious struggle.
“ Welcome, friend ofonr fathers, to our
' short-sl Happy are our eyes tlrat behold those
venerable ftatures." Enjoy a triumph-,. such
as never coriqtieror or uronarch enjoyed, the
-assriirrrice that tlrrougliout America, there is
not a‘ bosom, r:'hir:h does not heat with joy and
gratitude at'tliestr'.i‘rrd of your name. You
have already met and saluted, or will soon
nreet, the few that rttrtrtiltl of the ardent patri-
ots, prudent counsellors, and brave warriors
. nitlirwliom you were associated in achieving
our liberty. But yott ha-'.'e looked rorrnd in
vain for thefaces oi many, who would have
lived years ofpleasure on a~'day liketlris, with
"their old companion in arms and brother in
peril. Lincoln, and Green, and Knox,aud
.H-anrilton, are gone ; the heroes. of Saratoga
and Yorktown have fallen, before the only foe
they could not meet. Above all, the first of
heroes and of men, the friend of your youth,
the irrore than fr-ierrd of his: country, rests in
the bosom ofthe soil he redeemed. On the
,,hauks of his 1'otom-ac, he lies in glory and in
peace. You will-revisittlre hospitablcrsliades
of Mount’Vernon, but him whom you vener-
ated as we did, you will not meet at its door.
His voice of consolation, which reached you
in the Attstriun dungeons, cannot now break
its silencc,to bid you welcome to his owti roof.
But the grateful children of America will bid
you w'elc'ouie, in his name. Welcorne, thrice

{We are indebted principally to the Met’-
cithtile and Commercial Advertiser for the
parrierilars we this week give of the journey
810. of this distinguished personage.) ‘
Farr: AT CASTLE G1rrtI>i«:N.-—-'1‘lre compa-
ny commenced entering the.Garde.n about
half past six, and closed about 10 o’cloclt,con-
sisting of very near six tlrousa_nd ladies and
gentlemen. ’
.Inirriediately in frontofthe gate which forms
the first entrance to the Garden, \vas erected
a p’yra‘rtiid_, of the height of 75 feet, brilliantly
illttrniriated, and surmounted by a double tri-
angle likewise illuminated, presenting the ap-
pearance of a star encircling the letter F.-—
Tlie Bridge leading to the Castle from the
Battery into the Bay 250 feet,was an irnnrense
covered ‘way, carpeted the entire distance,
hung‘ with numerous lamps, and decorated
with ever, greens. Through this magnificent
entrance the company found their way into
the interior of the Garden. '
'.-’.‘he Castle, which is a circle, and covers a
surface of about 600 feet, was enclosed with
an nwrfrng at an altitude of 75 feet, the tlorrie
of which was srrpported in the centre by a col-
trrnn d'resscdwitlr pale liltie and white, and in-
scribed with the names of men inrrnortalized
with that ofLa Fayette in the cause of free-
doiri. This column was encircled with an irri-
tnense crit glass‘clrandelicr, composed of 13
separate ones, representing (he 13 original
states ;wliile it forured as its summit, the cen-
tre whence hung the flags, signals and stand-
ards of various nations, looped and festooned
the company, and a splendid trrilitary and ira-
val dress for the coarser canopy above.
The roof was supported by 18 transparent
columns, capped with a circle oflight, and ba-
sed with the armoreal insignia of the several
states nrider a shield ofthe urriou, to denote
their dependence on the satire, and richly fla-
ked with a falling drapery. Between the col-
rirnris were to be seen the names ofthe origin-
al states in gilded letters," encircled liy laurel
-wreaths, and suspended bctrveen Arrrerican
ehsigris, and a profusion of ‘ striped limiting.’
The General made his appearance about
10 o’Z'-lock. The irrilitary band struck up a
military grir, and La Fayette was conducted
tlrrotI.gli a column of ladies and gentlemen to
a splendid pavilion, imiuediatcly opposite to
the great entrance. Not a word was spoken
of corigratulation——-so profound, and respect-
ful, and intellectual was the interest wliicli his
presence _BXC.ll€tl\; nothing btrt a subdued and
nrriversal clap broke the general silence, and
that brit fora irrorrient.
The interior of the pavilion, which was
composed of white canrbric, festooned and
otherwise varied with sky blue, airtl surmount-
etl with an American Eagle over the lettcrF.
was richly fttrtrishetl. Among other interest-
ing objects, was a bust of Iiamilton, placed
ripori a Corintlriari pillar, and illuminated
with a beautiful lamp.
Brit the most interesting ofall the ci;hibi-
tiorrs were those presented in front ofthe pa-
vilion, and seen from it, itiirncdiately over the
entrance to the Garden. A triuurplral arch
ofabout.riiuety feet spaice, adorned with lau-
rel, oak, audfestoons of flags, &.*.c. was seen
bascdiupou pillars fifteen feet high. A bust
of Waslrington, supported by a golden eagle,
was placed over the arch, as the presiding de-
ity. Witlrin the arclr was a painting nearly
25 feet square, ofa fine colosal figure, repre-
senting the Genius ofourcountry, rising in
her native majesty and strength, supported by
the Arrrerican Eagle, and exhibiting a scroll
inscribed to Fayette, with the words—-“Hon-
ored be the faithful patriot.”
Soon after the Generzrl.critered, the paint-
ing just alluded to was slowly raised, which
exhibited to the audience a beautiful transpa-
rency, represerrting La Grange the rrransion
of La Fayette. The effect was as complete
as the view was unexpected and inrposing.-—
Another subdued clap ofadrniration followed
this tasteful and appropriate and highly inter-
esttng display. \
The General embarked on board the Steam
l3o_at Jatnes Kent, about half past 1 o‘clock,
Wednesday nrorning, on his excrrrsiou up the
North River, and arrived at West Point, a-
boutoneo’clock P. WI. He was received by
General Scott, and Colonel Tliaycr,(tlie for-
tress at the same time firing a salute) and cori-
ducred to the esplanade, on which the cadets
were paraded, and performed their evolutions
with their usual precision. After exaruinirrg
the lnstitrition, he went to the Library, where
the cadetsindividually were presented to him.
‘lei-e also all the ladies ofthe vicinity had as-
senibled-,-ar_id were presented to him; after
which he sat down to (litre with the oflicers
and cadctrs and numerous guests. The eti-
lEl'lilllll}lC|i[ was so prolonged, that the Gen.
could not re-embark_ until Iiear sunset. As
the boat got under way, he was again saluted
from the heights ; and proceeding on his
corrrse, reached Newbnrg after seven o’clock.
Here the whole population ofthe country had
been assembled from early dawn. It is com.
putcd that near thirty tltousantl‘ persons were
present, and as it was dark, it may be well
imagined that in such a niultitude there nitist
have been sotne confusion. The G‘eneral ex-
pressed the deepest regret, that owing to the
boat’s having laid so long agr'otind, he was
prevented from witnessing by day light the
preparations~ that had been so kindly made
for his reception at this» place. He was es-
corted by the milrtary, who had been all day
under arms, with his suit in carriages provided
for the occnsioii, to the Orange Hotel, where
roorrrs-were in readiness for lrirri, tastefully
ornamented, and around which thousands
were waiting with anxiety to catch a look of
the ‘ Nation-‘s Guest.’ He presented himself
soon after his arrival on the balcony, and ad-
dressed those avound-anrl below in langriage
expressive ofhis grateful feelings, but with a
voice and manner indicative of great fatigue.
He consented,-rievertlieless, to appear at the
ball and supper, \Vlil€lt‘\Ve|'e_go[ up with great
pams,.and at which a vast number of people
were present. O‘n retiring-about midnight,
the General was addressed by Mr. Hunri, in
ybehalfof the citizens‘ofNewburg, be vicinity.
The James Kent, with Gen-. La Fayette
“arrived at Poughkcepsie early on Thursday
morntnrr. The high bluffs near thelanding-
place and the wliarv‘es (“although at an early
hour) were thuonged with troops and citizens,

commanding eloquence of a Hamilton, the
wisdom of a Chancellor Livingston, or the.
sagacity ofaJay, displayed in vain. To these
prominent eras, permit us to adtl, as their a-
pex the transactions of this memorable occa-
sion.” ‘
To this address,the General returned a neat
and feeling repl.y, in which he very happily
touched tipori his former acquaintance with
the village, 8:. the astonishing changes which,
in corrrriion with our country geuerally,it had
undergone. '
The General then reviewed the troops, and
received. ilie congratulations of the citizens
generally.-,"after which a procession was fortit-
ed and proceededto the Ptiuglrlteepsiefilotel,
where lre_sat down to rt surrrpttrotis brea'kf:rst,

diately after breakfast he was escorted to the
Boat, and took his departure amidst the roar
ofartillery and lrrrzzas oftliotisatids.
At about 19.’. o’clock the party landed near
the. elegant country seat of Gov. Lewis,where
carriages were in waiting to convey them to
the mansion. After rcnrainiug an hour and
a lralfand partaking of an elegant collation,
the Gen. took his leave and embarked on his
voyage to Albany. ‘
Soon afterwards, in passing the seat of
James Tlrornpson, Esq. a boat came roll’ with
a large basket of-peaches, of excellent flavor,
and with several elegant boqrrets of flowers.
In passing the landing at Kingston, (fottr
miles from the village.) a- large collection was’
found to have assemble ’ a salute was fired
from the shore, and lrea"r.y cheers given and
returned.-—At this place Col. Henry Livings-
ton, who comnranded ‘a Regiment under La
Fayette in Rhode Island, and at Valley forge,
came on hoard.—'I‘he General had just been
inquiring of Col. Fish _wlrat'had become of
his old friend Henry Livingston, and received
him most affectiorirrtely.
While passing the scene 0fArnold’s treason,
Gen. La Fayette related, very nrinrrtely all
the circuursiances couriected with that affair.
Waslringrou with many otlierofiicers, at ived
at Aruold’s house, on the day of his escape —
Intelligence ofthe arrest of Andre and the
treason ofAruold,was communicated toWaslr-
ingtorr a few minutes before dinner. He men-
tioned it to La Fayette, I-lamilton and Knox
only. At dinner it was observed that General
and Mrs. Arnold were both absent. After
dinner the intelligence spread rapidly and a
council ofthe General nfiicers was called, at
which Gen. Knox, the jrinior Brigadier, was
lirst asked by Waslringtou what ought to be
done;-5 General Knox, with great gravity, re-
plied‘ that something should be done to pre-
vent the desertiori rrf .\’l ajor Generals.
A few nriles below Newlinrg, the General
recognized his quarters in the winter of 1781,
and called Major Cooper. who wasthere with
liitri, to talk over the incidents ofthat winter.
\Ve regret to state that at Newburgh, the
festivities of the r ' airing were in some degree
damped by an_ accident which deprived the
torvrr of Goshen ofa valuable young rnaii.—
Mr. Hector Fervard, son of Dr. Seward, and
brother ofthe Cashier ofthe Orange Corirrty
Bank, who was attached to the corps ofdrag-
oons, was so violently kicked by a horse, that
Ire died alrrrost instantly.
Gen. La Fayortr-. arrived at Albany 'onFri-

All the irortlrerrr Province, from the Ania-

would not ackiirrrvetlge his new Constitution.-
Gen. Carvallo, the Governorof the province
ofPernatnbuco, who is reputed to be a man
oftaletrts and offirni reptrblican principles, is
at the head of the oppositirin party. He has
recently recommended to the people to call a
convention, to tneet at some central point for
the purpose ol' forming a Constitution and to
establish a Government for themselves.
The Emperor has secured the Navy, and
the confidence ofthe Army, which he has a-

troops, mostly blitck.—He keeps them well

has secured their "confidence.
Aborittlre 20th June information from Lis-

information, a new decree was issried, order-

gain renewed. About the 90th July. the irr-

a desperado, at the head ofeight or ten of his
rrien in the square "of that city, again pro-
claiming instirrection. This soil, a constant
mansion of peace and harmony, lcars nothing
from so eplrenreral a project, which will irri-
mediately be stifled in its origin. The faith’-
ful inhabitants oflliataiizas, havingjoined the
Governor, the rebel, with his band was corri-
pelled to flee from that city and ere long,must
expiate his horrible crime. In addressing
myselfto you, it is needless to recorriiiieird to
you uirion, confidence in goverrinrent, and fi-
delity to the King, you know, there your inter-
"est lies.—Having witnessed proofs of your
loyalty and integrity, witlt the ritrirost confi-
derrce in the co-operation of all honest men,
I rely for the security ofthe country, in case
the spirit ofiiovelty should attempt to spread
exagerated reports, and to add others to the
band, whose leader is a fugitive, without a
home, and does not even know the country
on which he treads, nor foresees in his fury,
the consequences ofhis light brairred design.
The Island of Cuba, the classical land of
loyalty and its inhabitants, have always trier-
ited the honorable title with which the august
clemency of H. M. has coiidesceiided to lrorr-
or them : scoutidrels uniting with the discon-
tented, who niay be found even in a well or-
dered society, and the secret agents oftlrose
wretclied Provinces ofthe continent, are the
only foes who aim at the destruction of this
flourishing country, whose riches and whose
commerce depend on its tranquility. "
Onthls occasion, the 8 or 10‘men, who fol-
lowed the rebel Rodriguez, no doubt rireclran-
ically,~were probably ignorant ofliis projects,
ed, in consequence of an attempt to li'r'erik up‘
the Royalist Battalion, notwithstanding my
rrrrld treatment towards him, in place ofcom-‘ =
10 vflils drzuzonns. proclainiiug the Constitn-'
tion, and that the King was in prison; at the‘
same time firing their pistols. I iiimiediately
took such steps, as I deemed rrrost urgerrt,witlr'
my united resources; the troops are under"
arms,as are also the Royalists——iiotwitlistarid’-
ing. this riot, the city is quiet and not the leasf
disorder now reigns : many have joined tire;
and amidst my troubles, have fortuirately
the satisf.-rctiorr to conrmrrud a wise people’
who are firm in their love to the King.”

The brig Ontario has arrived at Boston fr.‘-
Malaga, bringing accounts to August 4. The
editors ofthe Pall‘-.rrlium inform us, it was re‘- '
ported at Malaga that the French Consul had '
been ordered to leave Gibraltar in 8 days, and
that 8,000 British troops had arrived at Lis-
frighly elated by _tlie news. llrrnrorirs were
received daily of rlisturbances in tlitlierent
parts of Spain. About 2,000 persons had ar-
rived at Malaga to be transported to rlili"ercirt
fortresses for being concerned in the late Rev-
olution. It was reported that there had
been a corirniotiori at Algeziras between the-
inhabitants and Frenclr trr- rps,iu consequence
ofthe former hoisting the Spanish flag above
the French. . _ ‘ I
Several British gun boats having passed

left Gibraltar oh the 15th tilt. Capt.Flett-lirrr
informs that the Constitutionalists had pos-
sessiorr of Tariffa. A Spanish and French
army wasiii the rear, and two French frigates
were lying off and on. It was r(‘.p0t‘tt’(l_tltat

Letters from Gibraltar state that Tariffa
was attacked on the 8th and 0th ofAugtrst,by
the land forces, but they were repulsed with
considerable loss. and the Frcnclr comman-
der was killed. The Gibraltar letters speak-
ofthe present movements in Spain as being
liighly important. Valdez, a nephew of Adm.

King was carried there.) is at the head ofthe

4 or 500 of the banished Corrstitruionnlists
who had been secreted along the coast at Ta-
riffa, landed on the 4th ultimo, and were am-
icably received and joined by the garrison at
that place, and subsequently by a nrimber of
the peasantry from the iriteiior. Gen. O’Don-
riell, who was stationed atAlgesi‘ras, sent two
Companies to rcconnoitre, who joined the iri-
surgents. ’I‘lrirty individuals, suspected
ofbeirrg connected with the captors of TarifI'a.
