his residence in this city in the sxtythrd year Of
his age, after illness of some DURATION aggravated
by taking severe cold on his route homeward from
the North in October last. Of his many and high
virtues the honorable stations the great patriotism
his distinguished services as jurst we can only add
brief, though We hope a lasting, tribute. Judge

some of the most distinguished men of that State.
brother of his at one time was Governor of that Com

ing early admitted to the bar of Louisiana he soon
attained high position taking rank alongside of the
distinguished jurtsts and eminent counseIlors Of the
day-say Abner L, Duncan, Thomas Boiling Robert
SON John W. Smith, Fielding Turner, Alfred Hen
men, Etnne Mazureau, Moreau Lslet Judge Dick,
Grymes, aud others. His great and varied attain
ments, his honorable and pure career, and his high
qualifications, caused him to be called to the Supreme
Court of our State over which tribunal he presided
as Chief Justice for many years until its reorgani-
zation under the present constitution of our State
Connected by marriage with one of the ancient most
influential and esteemed Creole families of our ~tate
his services and life were devoted to the interests and
welfare of Louisiana, No purer, more upright, Or
honorable man, ever breathed. He leaves three sons

neral ceremonies take place this morning at 10
o'clock, from his late residence on Victory street
