DEATH OF CHANCELLOR KENT.

The mail of last night brought us the melan-
choly intelligence of the death of the venerable
Chancellor KENT, of New York, who died at his
residence in that city on Sunday afternoon. He
was IN the S6th year of his age, having surpassed,
with undiminished vigor of intellect and scarcely
abated physical ability and force by quarter of a
century, the epoch at which the Constitution of that
State declared him no longer competent to perform
the duties of Chancellor.
In announcing this event, the North American
pays the following just tribute to the memory of
the deceased:
His death occurred at period when his career seemed
to have reached the point at which gifted and pur
intellect could be exeed for the benefit OF the race and he
departed from the life which he had so long adorned fully
ripe in years and honors His reputation and his abors con-
sute rich legacy the Republic for his fame and works
belong to single State and be confined within the
limits of the country which he loved and served so long and
WE'LL Perhaps man of the age this country has i'm
pressed the results of his long and aborious life more inde
bly, upon the intellect of the country than Chancellor KENT
The elevation of his private life, the purity of his public cha
acte the accuracy of his research the soundness of his
Judgment and the authority given his writings by the high
character of his judicial DECISIONS have rendered his
volumes textbooks in every court in the Union.
Mr KENT passed through the offices Of Recorder
Circuit Judge Justice of the Supreme Court and Chief Jus
ce and Chancellor The senseless provision Of the consi-
tuition of New York banshed him. at the age of sixty from
the latter station while in the full maturity of his great and
varied intellectual powers but the loss incurred by his State
Injured TO the benefit Of his coun for his great energies of
research and judgment directed ihe composition of
those works which have secured him. throughout the extent
of the land the gratitude of the profession ornament and
benefactor.
GAS judge Chancellor KEST possessed every attribute
that secured the confidence of the profession and the public
Labonou prompt pure, and elevated, he exalted
puaton by the soundness of his opinions while he excited
astonshment by the CELEBRITY with which he accomplished the
tasks imposed upon him. As the author of the CONNER
taries his reputation will last with the system of American
law. He was indeed, the American Blackstone. AS man,
patriot and politician, he bore character which all
of all parties delighted to honor"
