DEATH or THE Hon JoHN VAN BUREN.
John Van Buren,, of New York, died on
board the steamship Scotia, on Monday,
October 10, on his return from Europe, where
he had been for his health, and while within
n few hours of port. He was the son of
President Martin Van Buren,, and was born
at Hudson, February lS, 1910; graduated
from Yale in 1898; read law with Hon. b. f.
Butler, of Albany; was Secretary of Lega-
tion to his father while the latter was Minis.
Ter to England, fn 1912, and was chosen
Attorney General for the State of New York
in lS45. Then he retired to the practice of
his profession. In 1S4S he was one of the
prominent advocates OF the Free Soil party,
and from that time to this has been before
the public as speaker upon. the questions of
the day. He was one who believed firmly
in the middle path, and his conservatism
was so great that il caused him to halt when
persistency would have been victory. He
wasa most genial and agreeable companion
well-read, quick in repartee, never vindic-
tive and finding some witty apology for the
worst defeats. His position in his profession
was deservedly high, aud on stump or in
lecture room he had singular power of
claiming attention. Something like an ap.
parent lack of sincerity prevented him from
gaining the full success to which his quail.
tications entitled him.

PRESIDENT johnson has completed his un-
fortunate tour through the Northern States,

sides it is admitted that Mr.. johnson has
greatly weakened his position by his late
