General Taylor was the second President who died
in office and his decease took place at Washington
city, July 8, 1850. where he at frat inferred with
military and civic honors. His remains were re-
moved in the fa of the same year and deposited in
the family cemetery, near Louisville, Kentucky, on
the lst of November, 1850. Colonel Richard lay
Tor, the father Of the President, removed with his
family from Virginia to Kentucky, in 1895, and re-
sided in the vicinity of Louisville. When General

THE TOMB OF MADISON,


At Montpelier, the name which Mr.. Madison gave
to his beautiful residence in Orange county Va. about
one hundred miles northwest Of Richmond, and
thirty miles from the grave Of Jefferson are in erred
the remains Of the fourth President of the United
States and father of the Constitution. We have no
recollection Of any published account Of Mr.. Madi-
sons tomb, although his late residence has been
frequently described. The memory of Mr.. Madison
has been somewhat neglected in his native State.
Short sketches Of his life have been written by John
Quincy Adams Charles j. Ingerso, and other
Northern men, and there is brief notice of him ap
pended to his political writings but full personal
biography Of this great man is much wanting. AT
ter his death, in June, 1886, funeral Grafton was
delivered before the citizens Of Richmond, Vir.
ginia, by William Fl. MacF arland, Esq, OF
that city, in which he gave an eloquent sketch
of his public life and services, but no account Of his
private life. Mr.. Adams was appointed by the city
authorities OF Boston 10 deliver an eulogy on Mr..
Madison. The faculty Of the University of Virginia
paid due honors to his memory. In Congress his
death appropriately noticed by resolutions, and
