in both hemispheres, and himself American citizen,
could appear there with double right.
"Two other refugees and Sir Joshua Wamslcy,
member of the British Parliament, were preseDted; and
thus il was Revolutionary Europe to which the Govern
Of the United States extends its hand the opening
of the great European struggle This peculiar character
strictly preserved that such members of the Eu

committee, Gen. JonN Cooke, the only survivor.
When this reflection arose Gen. Cocke although living
when the paper printed, no longer survived He had

life or more than eighty years. His wife, the companion
Of his youth, his middle fe his old age united to him
for nearly sixty years. had few months before died. and
that shadow with that Of the next coming
event soon to be expected
Gen. Cooke, the Oldest of Col. William Cocke was
born in the county Of Nottoway Virginia. in the year
1772 10 In his early childhood his father emigra-
ted into what is East Tennessee and busy and
prominent actor in all the public events Of that section du

himself in the popular appreciation by the conservative
character of his public action.
