'' 4 su,'. X M REVOLUTIONARY ANECDOTE. When the British arm held posses Sion of Philadelphia, General Howe's headc "atters were in Second street, the.fourth door below Spruce, in a . ouse occupied by General Cadwalla ,der. Diriotly opposite resided William aid Lydia-Hanah, members of the So. ciety of Friends. A superior officer of the British ar nay, believed to be the adjutant-"eneral, fixed upon one of their char ers, a back room, for private conference, and two of the officers frequently met there, with fire and candiles, in close consulta tion. About the 2d of December, the arlju tant-general told Lydia that they would be in the room at 7 o'clock, and remain there late; and they .wished the family to retire early to bed, adding that when they were going away, they would call har to let them out, and extinguish their fire and candles. She accordingly sent all the family to bed; but as the officer had been so particular, her curiosity was excited; she took off her shoes, put her ear to the key-hole of the conclave, and over heard an order read for all the British troops to march out late in the evening of the 4th, and attack the American army, then encamped at White Marsh. 2Y On hearing this, she returned to her chamber, and lay down soon after, the 'officer knocked at the door, but she arose only at the third summons, - feigning herself asleep. Her mind was so much agitated by what she had heard, that she could nei ther eat nor sleep, supposing it to be in her power to save the lives of thousands of her fellow countrymen, yet not knowing how to convey the imforina tion to General Washington, nor dar ing to confide it to her husband. The time she felt, however, was short. She quickly determined to make her way as soon as. possible to the American outposts. Op leaving home, she informed her family that she was in want of flour. She would go to Frankford for some; her husband insisted that she ghould take her servant maid with her, but to his surprise she positively refused. She got access to General Howe, and solicited, what he readily granted, a pass through the British troops on the lines. Leaving her bag at the mill. she hastened towards the American lines, and encountered on her way an Ame rican lieutenant, of the light horse, who, with some of his men, was on the look out for information. He knew her, and inquired where she was gcing. She answered, in r quest of her son, an officer in the Ame rican army, and prayed hiim to alight and walk wvith her. He did so; order ing his troops to keep in sight. To him she disclosed her secret, after lhav ing obtained from him a solemn piromnise *that he would not betray her indidu ally, as her life might be at stake with the British. lHe condlucted her to a house, near at hand, ordered some refreshments for her, and hastened to head-quarters to acquaint General Washington with wvhat he had heard. Washington, of course, made all necessary prep~arations for baffling the me ditated surprise Lydia returned home with her flour, sat up alone to watch the movemnrts of' the British troops; heard their footsteps as they moved out of the city; but. when they returned in a few days after,, she did riot dare to ask questions, though anxious to learn the event. The next evening the Adjutant-Gen eral came in, and requested her to walk up to his room, as he wished to put some questions to her. She followed him in terror, and when, with an air of mystery, lie requmestedl her to ho seated, she was surec she wasi either suspoeted or betrayed. He inquired earnestly whether any' of her family wore up the last night, when lie and the others officers met. She told him they all retired at 6 o'clock. He observed--"I kniow you wvere asleep; for I knocked at ycur chamber door three times before you heard mec. I am entirely at a loss to imagine who gave General Washington information of our intended attack, unless the walls of the. liMso could speak. When we * ,,~ .arrivec. 4car White Marsh, we found all their cannon mounted, and1( the troops ready to receive us, and we have marched back like a parcel of fools.' LAMARTINE INsANE.-.Mr. F. Gail lard4t writes as follows to the Courier des Etats, of Now-York city, from which paper the Tribune translates. The let ter is dated Paris, Aug 16: Last week M. do Lamrartine had as sembled at his table several of his inti niate friends, before leaving for the Coto d'O0', whore he has offered for sale * his paternal estate, which fortune does not permit him to retain. Tfhe author of the "Girondists" seemed absent-mind od,, but this sad pre-occupation was easily attributed to the hard extremity -to which he was reduced, and to the ph rical paius of an ne.uto rheumatism, wluoh had prevented his appearance at the National Assembly since the elec tion. The illustrious invalid took soup with his guests, and then 6ausod himself to be served with it three times more in suCcession, as if he had taken nothing at all. After that, during the whole repast, he wore a sad and dreamy fig, and touched nothing until a plat of meringues a la creme was placed under his eye. At the sight of this dainty his brow cleared and he drew the plate toward him, examined it with a look of appetite, and then suddenly began to rub his hands with the cream and lath ered his whole face with it. 'T'his act of derangement struck with stupor the guests and his tearful wife, who instant ly rendered all possible care to the suff erer. A physician was called, and all present were besought to keep secret what after all may only be an acciden tal and temporation aberration. But is a secret possible now-a-days? This one has got out like all the rest. In spite of the respectability of the drawing rooms in which I have gathered the report, I prefer to doubt its authentici ty. The insanity of Lamartine would be not a misfortune, but a sort of dis honor for entire humanity, struck in one of its most admirable illustrations. Every intelligence would incline to mis trust itself, and would feel itself in some sort shaken by the fall of LamartineD OPTICAL ILLUS[O.-The following interesting extract from a private letter, descriptive of a singular optical illusion on the Catskill Mountains, written by an eye witness, has been handed to us by a friend for publication: The afternoon [Tuesday, Aug, 14,] was a memorable one for the Mo'intain. The optical illusion of last Monday week was re-produced, but more transcendantly beautiful than it had ever appeared before. It is the third time in twenty years that this ex traordinary phenomenon has been per ceived. Mrs. A. and myself were sit. ting on the rock in front of the piazza, when she suddenly exclaimed, "Look, look!" I did so, and the whole hotel was surrounded in the cloud before us. The whole house was assembled imme diately and we ran out to the point of rock from which the phenomenon of last Monday had been perceived. We were scarcely there a minute when a beauti fully arched rainbow was formed in the cloud, exactly in the center of which was seen the entire group, precisely as they stood on the ledge of rock. It was not merely their shadows, but the entire form of each per-son in thme group was distinctly visible; each person saw the whole group, not merely the reflec tion of his own inage. Th~lis histed about five minutes, when the rainbow disappeared, and the phlenomnenonm of Monday last succeeded; each person saw his own shadow, of huge dimnen sions, reflected on the cloud and sur rounded by a halo of light, but was un able to sec that of~ his neighbor. 1 shall never in my life see any thing of the kind again, anid if I had not seen it, I could have formed no conception of its effect; it was perfectly thrilling. The poems of Ossian; the Child ren~ of the Mist.; the D)eath-fetch oif the Germans; the Spectral Phantoms t'int were fear ful visions to less enlightened ages, weree all realized dlistinctly and palpably be fore us. This visit to thme Catskills has revealed to mne more of the wonders of Nature than all else that I have seen put together. Yours, C. F. D. ([New Y'rk Tribune'.
