>lv attention lias been called 10 a friendly communi- j
cation in your paper of tbe nth iusL la relation to my )
father, Ueueril si'inuel It, Webb?the aide-de-camp
and private secretary of tieneral Washington. when
the Army ol the Revolution occupied Nnv York city, j
previous ?o ilie uultle of Lou.: Island; and al the time t
ol the issuing by Congress oi the Declaration ol Independence.
There are errors in tliat column ication;
winch, however trilling, 1 deem it expedient to correct;
and it uoi contlued to my bed by Illness, 1 should
Lure written you at It-ii .tli oil the subject. I hut being
Impossible, 1 enclose you wbut will probably bo more
acceptable to the raiders of tlio H una in,?v the
muousenpt shoots, takeu bodny irom a little work
nearly ready tor the press, designed as n "centennial
offering" to my family; and which will be printed for
private circulation, as soon us my health will enable
me to complete it. It will eon si o! some boo or duo
pa-p's ut Kevnlutionary correspondence, 4r., gathered
Irom my lather's papors; nine-tenths ol which nave
never been published.
Do me the favor to preserve and return io tno the i
manuscripts enclosed. Your obedient servant,
J. WATSON WEBB.
[Extracts from the lorthcomliig publication.)

Independent of a regular eight years',journal, embracing
all passing events, it appears that my lather
was accustomod to keep a kind ol blotter, composed ol 1
unbound sheets of loolscap, carefully sewed together; j
j>u one page ot which, when aide-de-camp and private
Secretary to General Washington, h" caroluliy liraftcd
the orders ol the day, to be b ucd ; while on Hie oppoBiio
page lie wrote, from day to day, wbut he termed .
"Remarks and occurrences, Ate. "
In I'd1, the i'lnladeipbla (in:.rtte contained an edito- i
fiai, stuting that a gentleman had recently come in
possession ol a part e! u journal, Aic., purporting to j
fiavo been kept by Samuel U. Webb in 1770; which
ruu'd not fall to l>o of interest to his heirs, if any existed;
and inviting such, it any, to address Wtillam
J5. Ke d on tho subject.
I immediately addressed a note to Colonel Reed, np- 1
prising him that I was the son of General Samuel LS.
Webb, claiming tho watt?and X desire here to say
?f my old Irlend?who was the grandson of Colonel Jo- '
eph Kecd and au aide-de-camp of \\ -hington at tho |
Same time as ray father, an 1 subsequently, adjutant genoral
of the army?thai, although ho recently died in
this city under a cloud, and had tailen from the high
position ho once occupied, ho w.is a warm hearted, 1
cultivated gentleman; and in Bociul hie one ot the most
agreeable anil fascinating men ol It is time. His public
career terminated with It is mission in China; ami,
familiar us 1 have been with all our public men from
Ihj.'i to 1 s70, 1 know ol hut few who, socially, were
Colonel Heed's equals.
