Death of Hon. Garrett ID. Wall, of New
Jersey.

From the Philadclp his Bulletin, Nov. 20
General Garrett d. Wall, late United States
Senator from New Jersey, died lastsnight, Nov.
%, at his residence in Burlington, N. j. His
disease dropsy on the chest and his health has
been declining for two or three years. We may
safely cay that no man in New Jersey could
be more generally lamented than General Wall.
Distinguished not less for his private virtues than
for his high patri otism, he commanded the esteem
and affection of all who were acquainted with
him.
General Wall was native of New Jersey, and
has resided there all his life He was lawyer
by profession, and stood al the head of the bar in
his native State, while he c0ntaued IN practice.
the fact that he has uniformly declined taking
prominent part in public affairs. During the war
with Great Britain, he commanded company
hat was in service, but since that time, he has
remained in the quiet pursuit of his private busi-
ness, except during one term in the United States
Senate, to which he was elected during General
Jackson's administration. He has universally de-
clined all other Offices, even that of Governor of
New Jersey, TO which he was elected by the
Legislature, on more than one occasion Still,
notwithstanding his chosen retirement he has
shown no lack of interest in public affairs, and
his views on great questions have been given fear
lessly, and have always commanded the respect Of
all parties.
In his early life he was a federalst, but left
that party and joined the democrats at the time of
the war of 1872 His patriotism, however, always
shone above his party feeling, for having no poiti-
cal aspirations of his own, his motives were never
questioned General Wall was over seveAty years
of age. He leaves a widow, in affluence, and
several children.
