Departure of Lafayette from the U. States. The editor of the Irishman, a Journal printed at Belfast, in Ireland, has copied the proceedings at Washington on this occasion in September last, accompanying them with these remarks.
"We this day give to our readers one of the most interesting scenes which can be laid before the human mind-the departure and farewell address of the greatest Republic the world ever saw, to that Veteran Hero, whose sword was one of the first in the field to assert her freedom. The address of Mr Adams is a chaste and beautiful composition-a triumphant recapitulation of the glories of liberty; and the reply of the old Soldier is characterized by all the fire of youth and wisdom of old age. The Irishman feels no small pleasure in being the first Journal to give these important productions to the people of Ireland."
