Washington— -The : following : are recollec tions ul Washington, derived from repented' opportunities during the three last years ol |ps public'life. He was over six- feet in pltythre, of strung-muscular fralifc, without fullness of. covering, --well ■■ formed and straight. - He was a man of extraordinary physical strength. In 1 his house his action was calm, deliberate and dignified, without pretensions, to gracefulness or peculiar man. uer, but merely natural, and' such as one thinks it should he in such a man; When walking 'in the, street, his r movements had nul the soldierly air which might be expect ed, His habitual motions had peep formed )ong before he took command of the .primes, in the wars of the interior, and in .the. sur veying of wilderness lands, employments in wjiich grace pud elegance-werenot like-, ly tij.be acquired.' • ’■ ... ,'| , .At ths age of sixty-five, time had dime nothing "towards bending hini, out' ot hjs natural erectness. , His .deportment was invariably grave, ft was sopi-iety that stop ped short ol soilness—liis presence inspir ed a veneration and.feeling of awe, rarely', ex perienced in the presence uf ahy nian, '--His mode of speaking was slowjind deliberate, nut as though he wasin search of.fine-VVords, but that he might, fitter those only adapted to his.purpose, . It was the"usage of all per sons in good_society, to attend Mrs. Wash ington's levees every Friday evening. He •wan- nUyays— present; —frhe“yuung7ladics used-to throng around him, in .conversation,. There were some of the well remembered belles,of tliat day whom! agiiied themselves, to betiiivurites .with. him. As, these werp the oiily opportunities they had of conver sation with him,they were disposed fo use them. One would think that a genflcmaip and a gallant soldier, if he could ever laugh, or dress liis countenance in smiles, would du so when surrounded by young and ad mii'ing beauties/', put this was never so: the countenance of Washington, never DANIEL DUKE. softened or changed its habitual gravity. Une vvho had lived always in the family said ( that his manner in public life, and in l|tp seclusion of most rented life,, was al- ways the same. Being asked whether Washington, could laugh, this person said that this was a rare occurrence, but (!jat one-instance was remembered, \yl(en lie laughed most lieurtily at her narration of an incident in which- she \yas partly con cerned;- and in \yli.ich |ve applauded her agency. The late General Cobb, ! who was long a member of his family during the war, and \yl)q enjoyed a laugh as myelins any man cupld—said that lie never saw Washington laugh, excepting..when Col. Scamniel—if thisvyas die -person—rcamu tp dine:,at head quarters, Scamniel had a fund of ludicrous anecdotes, and a, manner iof telling them which, relaxed the grayity of 1 the'.c'uin rounder' in chief. - . . ! General Cobh also said that.the forms of proce'edings.athead quarters were exact and precise, orderly and punctual. "At the apr pointed momeitt, Washington appeared, at I the breakfast' table, ffe expected to.find ail ipeiqhersofliis family—pobb, Hamilton and. Humphreys werel.jt,njpng;thein—await ing him. He came dressed for the day, and brought with him the letters find dispatches of the proceeding-day,-withshort uietnoran ,da of the answers to be made, aisu^the-sub-.
