Gcnornl Lafayette and suite nrrived in Cumden on the 28th of March, 1825. A eorpse of cavalry composed of the compnnics of Captains Dean, Partridge and William*, commanded by Captain Deu.?, met I?afuycUe at tho North Curo linn line, mid escorted him to Camden. Ho was mot by the Intendant in the vioinity of the town in a carriage provided for the purpose by the citizons of Camden. Ilia arrival at the boundary of the town was announc ed by caunun; he wm conducted thence by the Lafayette escort of oavalrv thro' Fair street, to the open old field, noar tho old Headquarters of Lord Corn wallis, where he was received by the officers and soldiers of the revolution, and the citi sens, civil and military. Immediately after his rcoeption a national salute wps fired from tho old star redoubt. Hewta | qomliictad thsnce bx^thf* ckisena ami lhilitary under tn'e o^nmaud <sof "Hrijnwl dier Gen. Blair, as military officer of the day, and Major John Cautey ai chief marshal, assisted by William MoWillie, fea., to Bull street, thenoo through Bull street to Broad street, thenoe up Broad street to Lafayette Hall. The owroh was oouducted in the following 0I?6F ? ' ; it Military in oolumn on the right; citi zens; general oommittee; municipal officers; State offioenr, Federal officers; officers and soldiers of the Revolution; baud of music; General Lafayette; suite; Captain Deas' j^afayotte escort of cav alry. . When the right of tho column arrived near Lafayette Hall, they formed line, and ?he whole opened ranks and faoed inwards, wheu Lafayette aud suite, end the officers snd soldiers of the Revolu tion passed through the ranks to the gate iu front of Lafayette Hall, whore tho Genoral was reoeived by a deputation from the committee of arrangements. On entering the gate the female pupils of the academies who wero stationed iu the enclosed area of bis quarters, sang the following ode, and strewed his way with flowers, as he advanosd to the portioo of the Lafayette Hall; "Welcome Blighty shlsf, ones mors Welcome to thla grnteftil shore; Now no mercenary foe, Aims ngntn the total blow?. Alum at Mm the fetal blow, Virgin* Mr and matron* grave, TIimo thy conquering arnia did save, Build for thoe triumphal bowera; Btrewye Mr hi* way with (lowers? Strew your hero's way wlth iowvra." He was then introduced totheoffioera and soldiers of the Revolution, and after taking aoiue light refreshments, his return to the portioo was announoed by the band of masio. Immediately after tho musiooeased he was addressed in the following words fey Colonel Henry O. Nixon: Y< Genera): We coagratblste you on your srrival iu the State, and are delight ed with your visit to Cuuiden, We have no glittering legions, no triumphal urch ?s, no empty pugoonte, no Roman feasts to greot you, but we hava a been to offer more aooeptable than them all, welcome hearts. Sir, your visit to Amorica has given a new page to history. The glory of si I Grecian and Roman triumphs, Aide before it. The ear of the militanr des pot maw be fVetted with ?plencfoir, but it rolls in blood. Vassals mock while their flatter, sod despise while they praise. Yours is decked with the gase of an admiring eountry, and hailed with songs of gratitude snd joy. In a word, sir. yonr triumph k a trumph of the heart, and yon can "Read your graUlad* la a nation's eye.' Your visit bffi alao enabled the eiti sens of this United America to give a refutation to the calumsy, that, "Re publics are uugrstcfbl." The shades of Miltiadce, G imillns. Socrates snd Seipeo will no longer raiee in judgement sgsioxt the ingrstitudo of republics. General, in the dsvs of jouth, when the fkney is sn4 to W mplilated by the pageantry and splMdonr of palaees and courts, yon east your ejptt across the Atlantic, snd behold in the wilds of America, a people struggling to be frne.< Destined by Heaven for snbllme purpo Soa, jrou left iamiljr, ooustry, wealth and nobility, to engage in the storms of ? doubtful rvToluUon. Tbo pen of the historian was suspended to solve the eoisnni of your motive; it has been solv ed and confirmed by the stern oonsist euqy of a long Ufa, evincing under every vieiaiitude a heaven born love of liberty and mac. I would not flatter you, sir, if I could. It ill beoomea a freeman's pride and I do it not, when as the organ <.f>y fellow citiscus I assert, that con duct so disinterested, so noble, so etherial, throws human nature with altots boasted dignity into the shade; it was an amas ing triumph of philosophy over self love, it cclipsed the highest conceptions which bad been formed by man; it plucked the highest stars from the diadom of,royalty.( Astonished tymots trembled while they guscd; euviod what thoy dreaded; adwi* red whet they feared. Imtuodiutely after your arrival in America, you associated yourself with ofir Washington, whose character, by your description, the accomplished oourt of Louis the XVI admired, and whom, no dbubt, in coosequenoe of your generous representations at l'ottsdam, the great Frederick of Prussia sent a pledge of remembrance, with the fg Wowiog in seriptioD : ??From the (Jdrst general M E urope to the greatest general in tAe irwrW." Yon consecrated our soil at liratidywliio, in your first battle, in your blood. You exhibited at Monmouth decision and judgment in oounoil?delib eration and bravery in battle. At James town you arrested th? gallaut impetuosi ty of Wayne and bis division, and ws can never forget your gallantry in storm ing the redoubt st the investment of Yorktown. And General, how delightful is the refloctiou, that the influence of your revolutionary serrioca is not confi ned to this Republic; it is destined to make the whole American continent re joice. Indeed, the knell of South American tyranny ha* sounded. Inde pendence has been proclaimod from the summit of the Andes, and tyrants startle on their thronos. And how transporting is tho thought that the spirit which sprang from the Revolution mfcy yot eradicate tyranny from the earth. Murk at its approach, how thrones totter, monarchs sink, systems vanish and des potism expires. Little, sir, did Britain imngine, when our groan" wero dying unheeded on her blasts, that they wens of tho elements of that revolution which was to eclipso her fume, astonish the earth, and give birth to a Republic ? Little did our anoestors imagine, whon they were ground down by colonial op pression and bleeding uuder the weight of chuins, that they were the pioneers of liberty. Few, very few of thf.ni, General, remain to meet you here. Many, very mauy of them, expired before the day star of freedom had risen in the west.? Could they, in the wild dream* of anguish and despair, have caught, evon in distant perspective, a gliuipeo of the bright vis ton o&dur ogmr^n^ uot have beeu proud of their chains ? J Would they not have thanked their God I for t!i?lr sufferings ? But the report has rcachvd the departed in heaven, and if the spirits of the dead are permitted' to sympathise in the affairs of tne living, they rejoice iu the fame of their sons'. After acting as the champion ot freedom in the New World, you returnod to the land of your sires covered with the laurels you had won The eehoes of their de liverance and joy had scarcely oeisod, before France caught the flume of rovo~ lution from this sido of tho Atlantic? The prayers of America did not provail. The Genius of Freedom was dojtnod to weep over the tomb of Liberty in France. The spirit of our people followed you with intense anxiety through all the vicissitudes of a second revolution, from the nssciublago of the notables to the proclamation of the Duke of Brunswick, and the triumph of tho Jacobins. It followod you into exile, sympathised with you at Luxumburg, wept over your chains at Wesol, mourned with you Id the gloomy dungoon of Magdeburg, cheered you iu the poisonous dungeons of the castlo of the Jesuits, reioioea with you at the treaty of Campo Formla, and inspired one of the gallant sons of Caro lina to risk his liberty and life to redeom you from Omultc. And this spirit will follow you forever I Whether you bfc in palaces or in dungeons?in the oountrv of the freeman or tho slave. But, General, it would be delightful to the Amerionn people if you could make your home in their land. Are you not uuirkod iu your oourse by the iealous eye of the despot ? Will you not be visited with his fary when yoa return ? Why uot live wth us ? Why not die with us, and let the shades of Vernon rent upon vour grave? America is your country, hor oitisens your sons 1 i Guneral, your visit to Camden exoites sublime emotions; we livo over in fancy the scenes of its early history; though do splendid edifioea, no gorgeous temples, no oloud cup pod turrets meet your eye; still, there aroassociations oonneeted with it wore imposing than them all. It Is seated on classio ground. Its hannts are consecrated by tho shades of heroes, its plains honored by their dust. Moil* uments of the revolution, on all sides, remind us qf the deedx of our fathers. ? In its bosotn roposes General DoKalb, your friend and companion in arois,?? Inspired with a holy enthusiasm in the cause of freedom and mankind, he buff eted with yeu the storms of a perilous ooean. With you, he first touched American foil in Carolina, and doubly sanctiftal it, by hit irst visit and his hut rigk\ and you are now, Id your old age, to deposit a stone over htt ashes, which wttl speak to (timing yean. I k?*irsijr,U.will afford I you a -melancholy DMSfetft, to pause and drop tftoar on the "hero's grave; his spirit and your Wash ington's will eommune with you there This, General, is the most delightful moment of my life. I am addressing one whose uarae I linp^d in infancy, and whose Urn* is idea tiled with my ooun^ try's glory. One who redeemed me while fat I wss not, and wh it the re deemer of posterities which yet aro Hot. But why attempt to speak omotioa of the soul, for #hich there Is no language?

The following seusible article we tako frota the Savannah JFVee Pre**: /In this day of the ory of hard times, moro in fancy than rpality, perhaps it roocoraes each and every ouc to do his duty in a practical ana not a theoretical way. Money is made to spend ; for wo can noithor eat or cl<<thd out?elvos with it. It is the representation of labor : or like manufe, to do good', it mast be sent terod in the right plaoe and at the .right ! time. , . ? /. An wo must live upon our labor, which is money, thou it bohooves us to put ottr moony where it will do the most good, wd that place is among our selvos; who live in tho same plaoo, bear the Bame burden, are of the same socio* ty, and dependont upon oaoh othor for support. The money that is spent in a oity goes from hand to baud, but that ?eat out, is a doad loss. To Illustrate : Your grooery bill U* made at home, the grooery merchant gets the money; he buys his olothing at home; the clothing merchant buys his wants at hftme, and if eaeh and every one would bay at home their wants, the money in kept In circulation at homo. All roouivo the benefit, and hard times aro not felt. Hut if wo send off for our grooories, clothing, dry goods, boots and shoes, that we ean buy or have made at home, it IffjMpso much money sent away ; and times g t>w hard. Keep wkat we havo got and get sll ws can aod spend it a mong o iraelves, and there will be no nc. oessity lo ery hard tines. i The turse of the farmer is that he pays out all of his ootton money for what lie should have raised. He spsods nothing at home, for he bays from abroad. His oorn, meat, mules, eta., are sent him from other States, and his ootton money goes tfufre to pay for them. * pootb took oat of Savannah about ?10,006, the ory of hard times to tho contrary notwithstanding.
