DEATH OF Col. TRUNBULL.-Col John Trum
bull, the friend and com panion of Washington;
as an officer, e diplomatist, and
above all as painter, died in New York, on
Friday the 10th instant. He was born in Leb-
anon, Connecticut, in June 1856, and conso-
quently had attained the age Of 81 years Frank
and dignifed in his manners, and strictly honor
able in his intercourse with his fellow men, he
was beloved and respected throughout his long
life. AS painter of American history he stands
unrival ed, and almost alone, and his great ma
tional pictures, (iour of which, the signing of the
Declaration of Independence, Capture of Bur-
goyne, Surrender Of CORVALLIS, and Washing
ton resign,ng his Commission, are in the rotunda
of the Capital at Washngton,) will stand as
samples Of his genius, and hand his fame down
to future generations. He was long the Pres-
dent of the Academy Of Fine Arts in New York,
and had for number Of years received an anuu-
ity of 81 900 dollars from Yale College, the price
of gallery Of paintings, which at his death be-
came the property Of that institution,

she should be taken TO the latter and care
