Washington, commenced the suit nearly twenty
wears ago, when she was Mrs. WHITNEY. to re.
cover large real estate in New Orleans left by
DANIEL CLARKE, her father, The possession oi
which she claimed as his legitimate daughter and
legal heir.
The Boston Post states that General GAINES
her late husband, expended in prosecuting the
claim two estates at the south which he sold fol
100000 He also spen. his pay and emolu'
ments, about $1,000 year, for the time he lived
with Mrs. GAINES and her friends had advanc'
ed TO her considerable sums, which were also
expended in the suit.
After Mrs. GAINES succeeded in the Paterson
suit before the Louisiana court, the other parties
offered to compromise, but the offer was declin'
ed BY Gen. GAINES. The New Orleans Cour
ier says, "lhe modification occasioned TO Mrs
&. must be very great. She was confident o
success, and her extravagant hopes hal com

even condemned the counsel on the other side
for their zeal in behalf of their clients, and
