Death of EX-PreSident Polk.

The Pittsburg Post of Tuesday morning
brings US the sad intelligence of the death of
JAMES K. POLK, Ex-President of the United
States, which took place on Friday last the
18th inst, a: his residence at Nashville, Ten
nesee. He had been for several days suffering
from a severe attack of chronic diarrhea, of
which he died. This intelligence, says the
Post, will cause intense pang of sorrow to
pervade the breasts of the American people,
We shall not attempt TO write biogra phichl
sketch of this ilustrious statesman. We leave
this for abler pens than ours. Beloved in life
in every relation, he has gone down to the
grave, after fat iihfully serving his country du-
ring the most critical period Of her history,
with the blessings and prayers of his country
men lowering around his head and breast.
