terrible pour sa famille, Cette fin subtle a
cause une penible emotion parmi notre %

prccier sa franchise ct a sa generoslte.
Le general Rousseau etait natifdu Ken
lucky ct il. await fait ses etudes a West

pour rUnion ct il s'etait eleve jusqu>au rang
de maior-general de volontaires dams Far

A la fin de la guerre, il fut envoye au
Congress par les electeurs de son district
dams lie Kentucky. lie lS mars 1867, il fut
nomme brigadier-general de Iarmee r6gu-
liere, ct bien quill fit connu CONNIE demo
crate, lie Senat confirma sa nomination, tant
6tait grande lestime qu'inspiraient son no
norabilite, son courage ct SEES services.
Lors de l'acquisition du territoire d'Alaska
par les Etats- Unis, il fut designs par lie Pre-
sident pour en- aller prendre possession, mais
il ne tarda pas i etre rappele ct il fut, peu
de temps apres, appele au commandment

Hire instrument des parts ct il s'est tou-
jours etforce de roster dams Il legalite, tout
en- employa1t son influence pour appraiser
les passions ct c%oncilier les esprits. SEES ad-
