tributed to frame, and most of which was draE-
ted by his pen. He was a member ofthe FIRST
Congress ofthe y. States, and bore conspi-
cuous part In all its important duties, and pre-
sided for some time over the deliheratiaas OF
| that body. The exigencies Of this natioh re-
quired and commaded his great talents, dis
cretion, firmness and skill, in various interest
ing and important duties during the Revolu-
| tionary struggle.-At times as Chairman of
the committee of Public Safety, he secured
the domestic tranquility. and at other times he
was employed In important foreign missions
and diplomatic trusts. He bore prominent
part in the negotiations for our independence
as nation, and the ultimate treaty peace.
He continued 10 represent his country at fore
Ign courts for number of years. He was
shortly after his return called TO preside as
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Of the U.
States, which place he afterwards lett to ex-
cept the Executive Chair Of the State of n.
York. When he had performed that last and
highest duty to his native state, he declined all
further Judicial or political employment, and
retired 10 the calm share Of domestic retreat,
where the evening of his days were spent in
social and benevolent intercourse, and in the
signal observance Of that religion which had
been the bright beam Of the morning and the
evening Of his life the right and toleration of
which he had secured to this people in one of
the most important articles of our Constitu-
ton.
There is no place more fit, and no persons
are more willing 10 express their sincere feel
lngs on Ills occasion, than this Bar, where the
talents and requirements of the deceased were
SO early and SO often displayed-Thercl fore.

Impressed with deep grief upon the decease
Of their elustrious brother John Jay. They
find, however, consolation in the reflection,
that his conduct through long and nseful,
lie, has given lustre to our profession, and
70 this Bar; and that while his character for
private virtue and public worth had Justly en-
deared him TO the nation, his patriotism, his
great talents as a statesman, and his great ac-
quirements as jurist-his eminent piety as a
Christian, and probity as man, all unite to
present him to the public as an example whose
radiance points to The attainment of fexcellence

course Of condact which, for some wears
past, has been carried on in Sussex coun-
ty, In this state, the evidences of which,
have been just brought to light and prom.
ised, In our next number, to give further
particulars. This promise we failed to
perform; one reason for which was that
family affllction called our attention to
the consideration of other things, and
another was that as the Court was then
about commencing it's session, at Which
the examination into the circumstances
was to be made, it would be better to omit
saying any thing further upon the subject
until after the trial would be likely to be
ended. This we presume is now the case,
and although we are ignorant of the result
OF the trial, we proceed to redeem our
promise as far as we have it in our power.
From our correspondents account we
gather the following particulars About
ten days previous to his writing, tenant,
who lives on the farm where Patty Cannon
and her son-in-law the celebrated Joseph
johnson, negro trader, lived for many
years, in North West Fork Hundred, near
the Maryland line, was ploughing in the
held, In place generally covered with
water, and where heap of brush had
been laying for years, when his horse sunk
In grave and on digging, he found
blue painted chest, about three feet lone
and in it the bones of man The news
flew like wild fire, and people from many
miles round, visited the place; among
whom it was universally agreed, that a
negro trader from Georgia, named Bell or
Miller, or perhaps both, had been murder
ed ~ Johnson and his gang, about 10 or
IL years ago, and that the bones now dis
covered were those of one Of them: as the
man or men had been missed about that
time, and the horse on which one of them
rode was found at Patty Cannon's, who

from Maryland, who had lent the horse.
came forward and claimed his property
and she alleged, at the time, that Bell or
Miller had sailed short time previous.
with cargo OF negroes for the South.
Slnce that time he has not been heard
OF, and 1t is said that few davs before he
was missed, he was heard to say that he
had with him fifteen thousand dollars with
which he purposed to purchase negroes.
The supposltlon now is that the know
ledge OF his having this money in his pos
session, formed the inducement to take his
life, and that 10 concea! the BODY it had
ceen deposited in the place where the
bones have been found.
The excitement produced by this dis
covery, as may naturally be supposed, was
very great IN the neighbourhood, and on
the I'd instant, one of Johnson's gang
named Cyrsus James, who has resided in
Maryland, was caught in this state, and

AS many Of our readers as were acquainted
with the piety, the benevolencc, the patriot
ism, and the distinguished devotedness to the
cause of emancipation, which characterised
the life of the venerable John Jay. will most
readily account for our inserting the following
tribute to his memory.
SUPERIOR COURT, Tuesday May 49,,
1929. At the opening Of the court this morn
ing, his honor, Chief Justice Jones address
ed the following remarks to the Bar:
Information has just been communicated to
the judges of this Court, Of the death of the
venerable JOHN JAY. When we consider the
distinguished stations In life which have been
occupied by this excellent man, with so much
honor to hilnself and benefit to the public
while we remember the ability with which he
discharged his duties, when called upon to re-
present his country in diplomatic character
when we view him upon the bench of the
Supreme Court Of the United States, as the
first Chief Justice under the Federal Constitu-
ton, presiding with the most entire dignity,
intelligence, and impartiahty-and above all,
when we look upon his bright example as
man and Christian, the first impulse of every
generous and rejecting mind, is to regard his
death with sorrow, and his memory with the
deepest respect, Few men in any country.
perhaps scarce one in this, have filled larger
space, and few ever passed through life, with
such perfect purity, integrity and honor No
man can point to a stain upon his character or
~ n ho
In any of the high stations which he so en-
lnently filed; and when we look back unon
his career, we see nothing but brightness on
his path.
This great man thus honored, thus distin-
guished, thus lamented, has passed away from
among us.
On the day when this deep felt loss is com
municated 10 those who knew him well, and
with whom to remember is but to honor him.
it is suitable that the ordinary business oflife
should give place 10 considerations which are
suggested by this melancholy event.
The Judges of this Court therefore will not
proceed to-day in the business for which they
are assembled {: but direct an adjournment un-
til tomorrow.
The Supreme Court also adjourned for the !
day and the Members OF the Bar had meet |
ing for the purpose of passing resolutions suit
able to the occasion. A committee was ap
pointed to draft resolutions, and report to an
adjourned meeting to be held at t. a. at
which hour the members re-assembled, and
James Ialimadge, Esq. Chairman Of the |
committee appointed In he morning, reported |
the following preamble and resolutions, which !
were unanimously adopted:
The Committee respectfully Reported
That the recent decease Of the late vencra- /
bic JOHN JAY, is the cause Of deep grief
and the present engrossing subject Of private
and public feeling.
