Mrs. General HarriSon.-As this lady
is soon expected to occupy "the White
House" at Washington, any thing rela.
ting to her history will be gratifying to
the public.
After the severe and desperate battle OF
Miami, in 1894, Gen. Wayne went to
the Atlantic States in 1894, leaving Gen.
Harrison in command of Fort Washing
ton, now Cincinnati. The next year
Captain Harrison married the daughter OF
Judge John Cleve Symmes-who was
born at Riverhead, Long Island, and re-
moved in early life to New Jersey, where
he married the daughter Of Gov. William
Livingston, and was soon after one Of the
Associate Judges of the Supreme Court
of thai State. In 1857 he became the
proprietor Of "thc Maimi Purchase," Of
near million Of acres, and removed 10
that country.
Mrs. Harrison was educated at East
Hampton, Long Island, and when young
was esteemed Lady Of great personal
ard mental accomplishments. A writer
for the National Portrait Gallery for 1886,
thus speaks Of her: She is distinguished
for her benevolence and pinty; and all who
know her view her with esteem and affec-
tion. Her whole course through life, in
all it's relations, has been characterized by
those qualifications that complete 5fe

The LATE CHANCELLOR DEsAussURE.

IHE LATE CHANCELLOR DEsAUSSURE.
As an appropriate tr butte to the memo.
ry of this virtuous and distinguished jurist
Chancellor Harper delivered on Monday
last in the Circular Church, before the
South Carolina Bar. Association, and a
large number of citizens, a Memoir Of his
life, witt, an honorable notice ofhis Hugue.
not ancestry, and Of his illustrious in.
strnctors and associates at the Bar, the
Rutledges and the Pinckney's, with whom
he justly ranked as an equal the subject
of his eulogy. Chancellor Desaussure,
it may here be remarked, had a noble
patron in the principles and conduct Of
his ancestry, who perilled all for the sake
of liberty, and truth and conscience in
opposition to a'corrupt Roman Hierarchy,
and he proved HIMSELF, in every period Of
his life, the worthy son of such worthy
sires, and in death, he is said to have
trusted alone for salvation, in the impu-
ted righte eonsness of the Son Of God.-
In this country, the descendants Of the
Huguenots bare generally, retained many
traces OF their origin, but feebler and
fainter every succeeding generation.-
And when such patterns are exhibited, as
the subject Of this Memoir, it is proper
that they should be employed as an incen-
tire to the young, to copy their example.
A copy of the Memoir has been reuues.
