Kllzahclh Schuyler, tlatilifr of General Philip ijchtiyler, vas unu of the 111031 chat mint! women of her day at utmost every peilod of her long life. Dull edu cated, possessed of many accomplishments, used to the elegancies and clique te of tho nest social circles of New Yolk; coiinecind tiy roi:cansuuity with tho leading families of the State; richly endowed with tt cuuiel) person, a sweet nud affectionate disposi tion, nnd vivacious nnd witty withal, she was regarded as one of the most attractive nclles limine a poilion of the period of the leYolutlcii. liven ns a J01111JJ matron, the I fo of Colonel Alexander Haniilliin, she was an ornament and representative of the best society of llio cotiiuionwealth, always lively and gracious, yet dinllleil. And in 'ho evening shadows of her lung lite a uldow for liny .u-ars htr soeietv was .ought by thu Intellectual and 1,'liiied. When In the spline of 1770, Dr. Frank lin, C'hailes (.'airul ami Saiiiui'l Clntse, a committee of the Continental Congress In vested with Us delegated powers, went to t'niiada on 11 diplomatic mlislon, they wcie eiilerlained at Albany b.' General Sclmjler, ind hv him convejed lo Xake Georeo. Mr. Cittrol wiole of the General 111 his journal: "He behaved tons with great civility; 'Ives In pretty sljle; has two daimhters (Ilelsey anil l'ecsy), lively, agreeable, hlack-ejed gals, who made our stay erj pleasant." These worn Elizabeth, afterward Mrs. Hamilton, and J.irjaret, the future spouse of t lie Albany patroun, Stephen Van liens--clear. In the spring of 17S0 Bliss Schuyler ac- co npanled her parents, fo the headquarters it 1 he Conl Ineutal Armv nt Mnrrlstowii, New Jersey, -vhere they tarried several wf'eks. She attracted much attention. I'heie Colon ;l Iliiinlllon, Washington's ac roiiiplislicd secielary, eiminoroJ by bet harms, wooed and won hrr.and theyweie iiiarrled at Albany lit December, the satin vear. From thai lime she was one of tin itui3t beloved anil cherished friends of Mrs ll'ii8l)liigion, umll 1 tie death of the Ultei more than l went ears afterward. Theli mutual attachment seemed liko that cf mother and. daughter. Mrs. Hamilton was deeply affected by the demise of her distinguished friend. Two jcais later she was compelled to endure a far greater bereavement In the sudden death of her husband, nt the age of forty seven, slain by a pistol ball on the duelling ground at U'echawken. For fifty year .tfternard she lived a widow, dying at tin home of her only daughter, Mrs. Holly, In Washington City. In a larae pocketbook which she carried about her person was fuund iho letter writlen to her by her hus band on the morning of his departure for I lie. fatal Held. It was much discolored by Iter tears. She had carried it In liei bosom fnr half a century. I was In Washington at the close of 1848. and enjoyed the pilvllege of passing mj lint evening there with the venerable wid ow of General Hamilton. She was then In tlio nineiy-sccond year of her age, and showing few syinntoms, In person or mind, ot cxtremo longevity. Tlio sunny cheer fulness of- her temper and quiet humor, which had shed theit blessed Influences around her all through life, still made her ileportment genial and attractive. Iler memory, faithful to the myriad impres sions of a lung and eventful experience, was ever ready with its various temlni sceuces to give a peculiar charm to her conversation upon subjects of tho buried past. She was then the last living belle of the Revolution, and possibly the last sur vivor of the notable women who gave a charm to the Republican court at New York and Philadelphia during ll'as hi ny lon's admlnlilratlon. When 1 revealed to Mrs. Hamilton the object of tnv visit, her dark eyes beamed with pleasurable emotion. She seated her self lu an easy-chair near ine, and we talked without ceasing upon the Interesting theme until Invited by her daujhter to the tea-table, at eight o'clock, where we were joined by a French ludy, eight or ten years the junior of Madam Hamilton. ' Our conversation began abruptly. ''I have lately visited ge Ford,, at Mortistown," I remarked. "Judge Ford, Judge Ford," she re peated musingly. "Oh, I remember now. He called on me a few years ago and brought to my recollection many Utile events which occurred while I was at JLTor rlslown with my father aud mother during the war, and which I hatt forgotten. I re member him at a blight boy, much thought of by Mr. Hamilton, who was than Wash ington's secretary.

I Inquired! "Only a short tlmo the next winter nnd an occasional visit," she replied, "We went to New Windsor after wo married, and there a few" weeks af crwardMr. Ham ilton left the General's military family. I made my homo with my uarents at Albany while my husband remained In the arm until after the surrender of Comwallis. J visited .Mrs. Washington nt headquarter at Newbtirgh, on her Invitation, In the summer of 1781, when I remember she had a beautiful flower garden planted Mid culti vated by her on 11 hands. It was a loyclt pot. The residence was an old stoni liouso standing on the hich bank of tin riter ami overlooking a beautiful bay am! lofty highlands beyond. We wcro takci from Nun burgh l"n a barge to the head quarters of the French aitliy, a little below rceksltir, where we were cordially lecciyei. by the Viscount du Noalllcsa kinsman 01 .Miidamo I.afuvcttf. who was Mr. lliunll ton's warm Mend.

Theio wo situ-the brave joung lilshwomai called 'Captain Molly," whom I had seen iwo or tlnee times before. Shu seemed tt he a sort of a pet with the French." "Who was 'Captain Moll.i,' and for what was she famous?" I aslted. "Il'hy, don't ou remember reading ol her exploit nt thobatlluof Monmouth?

"Oh, yes," sho replied. "I had little ol private life in those days. Mrs. Il'ashlng 011, who, like myself, had a passlunnu love of home aud domestic life, often com plained of the 'waste of time' alio was com. gelled to endure. 'They ca'l me Hie First I.uUj in the Land, and think I must be ex ticmely liapoy,' she would say almost bit terly, at limes, and add, The might tuon pruperl, call me the Chief State Prisoner."' "As I was younger than she I mingled more lu the gaieties of the day. 1 was fond oflauclug, and usually attended the pub lic balls that were given. I was at the In auguration ball the most brilliant of them Ml which was given early In May at the Assembly Rooms on Uroauway, above Wall street. It wta attended by thu 1'rojUlem and Vice-President, the Cabinet otlkers, a majority of thu members of Congress, the French aud Spanish ministers, and mili ary aud civil otlkers, with their wives and daughters. Mrs. Il'aslilnglou had not yet arrived in New York from Mount Vernon, and did not. until three weeks la'tcr. On that occasion every woman who attended the ball was presented with a fan, prepared in Paris, with Ivory frame, and when opened displayed a likeness of Washington in profile." "Were you often at balls which Wash ington attended?" I Inquired. "Frequently." "Did hi usually danca on such occa sions." "I never saw Washington dance." she replied. "He would always choose a part ner and walk through the figures correctly, but he never danced. Ills fayoilte was the minute, a slow, graceful dance, suited to his dignity and gravity, and now little known, I believe." "Mrs. Washington's receptions were very brllllaut, were they not?" I asked. "Brilliant so fir as beauty, fashlou and social distinction went," she replied; ''otherwise they were very plain and en. tlrely unostentatious." "Did you usually attend then.?" I asked. "Frequently. I remember a very excit ing scene at one of her earlier receptions. Ostrich plumes, waylog high over tha head formed a part of tbe evening hud-dress of a fashionable belle at that time. Mist Mc Eveis, sister of Mrs. Edward Ltvlngton, who was present, had plumes unusually high.
