Birth Place of Andrew jackson.

Amos Kendall wrote n life "f Jackson

1915. Kendall resided at Washington
during his Administration, and WAS upon
the most intimate terms with him, per
sonsl and political. Kendall says,at page
II Of the biography, that Jackson was
born III the Waxhaw settlement, South
Carolina. not far from the North CaroIr
ma line. Many Of the details Of the life
seem to have been gathered from Jack
son himself-thus at page 10, in the
Waxhaw Meeting house, Andrew Jack

Chancellor Dargan h2s been ncapaciated

and in ls47 was elected by the Legislature
to the Chancery Bench, which position he

Prof. Ryan's Lectures.

In our notice of Professor Ryan's lee
lures in last issue, we stated that he would
remain until Wednesday evening only but
at the solicitations Of many c f our citizens,
he consented to remain the entire week. and
lectured every evening during the week, &,
besides two free lectures which he deliver.
ed in the day--oDe on " ednesdoy and the
other on Saturday. We spoke of Prof
Ryan's lecture on Monday night in terms
which we designed TO be complimentary,
both rs regards his matter and manner. and
after hearing several subsequent lectures
we became more impressed with his varied
and profound mental accomplishments, the
boldness and grandeur Of his thoughts, and
the inlmitabie manner and polished language
by which he communicates his thoughts 10
others. In the discussion Of his grand sub
Ject, the supremacy of Mind over Matter
the power of the will against brute
force-his genius and learning is conspic.
uously revealed, and while he conyinces bv
plain nppreciable reasoning, he startles his
hearers by daring fights into tie realms of
thought and ETHEREAL mystery. He probes
deeper than ordinary minds can penetrate,
or tmid opes will dare to venture and
while he fearlessly expresses his own opin.
ions, he paysa proper Difference 10 those of
others. Truth, he conceves, cannot suffer
by comparison or by conflict with error.
After the lecture. his entertainments usu-
ally conclude by personatng some ohara c.
ter, either humorous or tragic. illustrative
of some principle in science. or designed to
correct some of the popular prejudices and
errors of the day so that all persons, of
whatever cast of mind, cannot fail to be 10.

lectures here, but will say that they pur-
