Wc have now received an account of the coremonies which accompanied his departure, the address o f the President and the G eneral’s reply.— T h e address is one of Mr. Adam ’s bo-*t pieces o f com position, and speaks the language and feeling of eve ry true American. The reply of the * veteran cham pion of freedom,’ no one will read, witliout feeling his bosom licavc with patriotic and enthusiastic venera tion for him, nor witliout responding, with all his heart, to every sentiment v/hicli it contains. Wc have not room for tho address o f the rreeidcnl in full, but extract from it tlie most intcrosting parts. It com mences tlius: “ G eneral L afayette : It has been the good fortune of many of my distinguished fellow citizens, during the course of the year now elapsed, upon your arrival at their re spective places of abode, to greet you with the welcome of the nation. The less pleas ing task now devolves upon me, of b.dding yon, in the name of the nation. Adieu The President, after adverting toineidonts in gene* ral whicii have marked La Fayctte’.s life; the part whicli ho performed in our Revolution; Jii's return to his na tive country after tho establishment o f our indopend. cnce ; the undeviating course ot patriotism and phi lanthropy which he has pursued fpr tho last forty years, and the growing prosperity o f our coimtry since tho Revolution, continucB; “ In that lapse of forty years, the generation of men with whom you co-dperated in the conflict of arms, has nearly passed away. Of the General Officers of the American Ar my in that war, you alone survive.-^Of the sages who guided our Councils } of the War riors who metjtfie foe in the field or upon the wave, with thfe exception of a few, to whom unusual length of days has been allotted by Heaven, all now sleep with their fathers. A succeeding, and even a third generation, have arisen to take their places ; and their chil dren’s children, while rising up to call them blessed, have been taught by them, as well as admonished by their owii constant enjoy ment of freedom, to include in every benison upon their fathers, the name of him who came from afar, with them hi their cause, to conquer or to fall.” Aftcjr noticing the invitation given him by the late Presid ent o f tho U. S. to embark for this country in one of our national ships, his delicate decline o f the invitation, his preference for a more private convey ance, and his reception upon ori^ shores, ho proceeds: “ You have been hailed as a long absegt parent by their children, the men and wo men of the present uge. And a rising gen eration, the hope o f future time, in numbers surpassing tlie whole population of that day f^mnants of that hour o f trial, in acclama- [tions of joy at heholdijig the face o f him whom they feel to he the common benefactor of all.

The Executive Government of the Union, stimulated by the same-»feeling which had prompted the COngreSs''to the designation of a national ship for your ac commodation in cbming hither, has destined foe first service of a frigate,*recently launch ed at this' AfeJpppolis, td the less welcome, but distiuguished trust, of conveying yon home. The name of the ship has ad- detl'one more memorial to distant regions and future ages, of a stream already mem orable, at once in the story of your sufferings, an d .of our independence. “ The ship is now prepared fof your recep tion, and equipped for sea. From the mo ment ol'her departure, the prayers of millions will ascend to Heaven that her passage may be prosperous, and you return to die bosom of your family as propitious to your happi ness, as your visit to this scene of your youth ful glory Las been td that of the American people. Go, then, our beloved friend—return td the laud of brilliant genius, of generous sen timent, of heroic valor 5 to that beautiful France, the nursing mother of the Twelfth Louis, and the'Fourth Henry; to the native soil of Baj’ard and Coligni, of Tureiine and Catinat, of Fenelon and D ’Aguesseau,' In that illustrious catalogue of names which she claims as her children, and with honest pride holds up to the admiration of other qations, the name of L a F a Y ette has already for centuries been enrolled. And it shall hence forth burnish into brighter fame j for if, in aftdr days, a Frenchman shall indicate the character o f his nation by that of one indi vidual, during the age in which, we live, the blood of lofty patriotism shall mantle in his cheek, the fire of conscious virtue shall sparkle in his eye, and he shall pronounce the name of L a F ayette . \ ’et we too, and our children in life, and after death, shall claim you for our own. You are ours by ihatmo^e than patriotic self-devotion with which you flew to the aid of our fathers at the crisis of their fate. Ours by that lOjig series of years in which yon have cherished us in your regard. Ours hy that unshaken sentiment of gratitude for your services which is a precious portion of our inheritance.— Ours by that tie oflove, stronger than death, which has linked your name, for the endless ages of time, with the name of W ashing - At the painful moment of parting from you, w’C lake comfort in the thought, that, wherever you may be, to the last pulsation of your heart, our country will be ever present to 3 ’our affections; and a cheerful consola tion assures us that we are not called to sor row most o f all, that we shall see your face no more. We shall indulge the pleasing aci- tidpation of beholding bur friend again. In the mean time', speaking in the name of the whole people of the U. States, and at nloss only for language to give uUerance to that feeling of attachment with which the Ireart of the nation beats as the heart o f one man, I bid you a reluctant and aflectionate fare well.” To w hich general La Fayette made the fol lowing answer: Copy of La Fayette’s answer to the President of the U. States on the 7th Sept. 1825. Amidst all my obligations to the general government, and particularly to you, sir, its respected chief magistrate, I have most thankfully to acknowledge the opportunity given me, at this solemn and painful moment, to present the people of the L^nited States with a parting tribute of profound, inexpres sible gratitude. To have been. In the infant and critical days of these States, adopted by them as a favorite Son—to have participated in the toils and perils of our unspotted struggle for independence, freedom, and equal |Tights, and in the foundation of the American Era of new social order, which has already per vaded this, and must, for the dignity and happiness of mankind, successively pervade every part o f the other hemisphere—-to have received, at every stage of tlie revolution, and during forty jmars after that period, from the'People of the United'States, and their representatives at home and abroad, conti nued‘marks of their confidence and kind ness,—has been the pride, the encoura^- ment, the support of a long and eventful life. But how could I find words to acknowl edge that series o f w’elcomes, those unbound ed and universal displays of public afieetion, which hav^ marked each step, each hour, of a twelve months’ progress through the twen ty-four states, and which, while they over whelm my heart with grateful delight, have w.ost satisfactorily evinced the concurrence curity, public and private, in a practice of good order, the appendage of true freedom, and a national good s^ii^e,. the final arbiter of all difficulties; I have had proudly'to^ve- cognise a result o f the'republican prittcip|||g for tvliich viT have fought, and a glorious demonstration fo the most timed aiid, prieju- dicid mliids, of the superiority, over degra- cling aristocracy or despotism, of popular in stitutions fdundedvOD the plain rights o f man, and where the local right%of every section are preserved under a constitmioual bond of union. The cherisliing of that union be tween the States, as it has;been the farewell entreaty of otfr great paternal Washington, and will ever have the dying prayer of eve ry American Patriot, so it has become the sacred pledge of the emancipation of the tvorld, an object in which I am happy to observe tliat the American people, while they give the animating example of successful free institutions, in return for an evil-entailed up on them by Europe, and of which a liberal and enlightened sense is every where more and more generally felt, show themselves e- very day more anxiously interested. And now, sir, bow can I do justice to my deep and lively feelings, for the assurances most peculiarl 3 ^ yaluecl of ymur esteem and friendship, for your so very .kind references fo old times, to my beloved associates, to the vicissitudes of m y life, for y o u r affecting picture of the blessings poured by the seve ral generations of the American people on the remaining days of a delighted vt teran, for your affectionate remarks on this sad hour, o f separation, on. the country o f my birth, full, I can say; of American sympa- thies, on the hope so necessary to me of my seeing again the country diat has deigned near half a century ago to call me hers —1 shall content my^self refraining from super%^ fluous repetitions, at once before you, sir, and thislrespected, circle, to proclaim cor dial confirmation o f every one of the senti ments which I have bad daily opportunity publicly to utter, from the time when your venerable predecessor, my old brother in arms and friend, transmitted to me the ho norable invitation of Congress, to this day when yon, my dear sir, whose friendly con nection with me dates from - 3 ’our earliest youth, are going to consign me .to- the pro tection, across the Atlantic, of the heroic na tional flag on board the splendid ship, the name of which has been not the least flatter-, ing and kind among the numberless favors conferred upon me. ~ . God bless you, Sir, and you all who sur-», round us. God bless the American people, each of their states, and the federal govern ment. Accept this patriotic farewell of an overflowing heart; such will be its last throb when it ceases to beat, • “ As the last sentence was pronounced, the general advanced, and while the tears poured, over his venerable cheek, again took the Presi dent in his arms—^he retired a few paces,’but, overcome by bis feelings, again returned, and uttering, in broken accents, “ God bless you !’4 fell once more on the neck of Mr. Adams. It was a scene at once solemn and moving ; as the sighs and stealing tears of many who'witnessed it bore testimony. Having recovered his selfe possession, the General stretched out his hands, and wasima moment surrounded by the greet ings of the whole assembly, who pressed uppa him, each eager to seize, perhaps for the last time, that beloved hand which was opened so. freely for our aid» wheii aid w'as so precious/ and whick|K|sped, witb firm and undeviating .hold, t h e y l l whicli so bravely helped*to achieve deliverance. The expression, which now beamed from the face of this exalfed man was of the finest and most touching kind. The hero was lost in the father apd the friend : dignity melted into sub.dued affection, and tho friend of Washington seemed to linger with a ' mournful delight among the sons of his adopted, country. A considerable period was then occu pied in conversing with various individuals, while refreshments were presented to the com^ pany. The moment of dej^arture at length ar-‘ rived, and, having once more pressed the hand, of Mr. Adams; he entered the 'Barouche, ac-. companied .by the Secretary of State, of thr Treasury, and of the Navy.
