were collected at the Executive Mansion In the
chamber where lay President expecting momenta-

whom but one short month before thousands OF his

nephew, and one or two intimate associates. This
chamber was separated by door Qei open) from an
adjoining apartment, into which some thirty OF the
| most prominent men had been admitted, awaiting
with anxiety the expected melancholy event Among
those remembered as being present, were EWING,
BELL, GRANGER, ALLEN, (then of the MadisoniaD,)
and others. At few minutes after half-past twelve
| O'Clock, the death Of Gen. Harrison announced,
and Immediately thereupon, gentleman, who APP

claimed, "John Tyler is President Of The Unled States

words used upon the occasion, and were spoke so
distinctly TO be heard in the room where lay the
| yet warm corpse Of Gen. Harrison.

grace those who have attempted TO stain the guilt
