The present Attorney-Geperal
Of the United States is = man who
BY his own talent and Industry,
has elevated himself from a posi-
non of comparative obscnrisy to !
that which he now occupies as
the law adviser OF the National
Government.
In 1889 or 1870 Mr.. Pierrepont
came to This country as the pri-
vate tutor IN the tamil. ofthe late
Mr.. Jno. Gillespie, snd spent some
time in his family, where he was
muah beloved and respected.
The talents Of the Young teacher al
that timi attracted the attention
Of the gentlemen with whom he
was thrown in contact. aud when
he was compelled, by his rwn do
nestle affairs at home, to return
to the North, his loss was regret
by his pupils, some of whom yet
retain kind remembrance Of him
and Of Mr.. Gillespie, who ut that
period of his life, predicted for him
a brilliant future. . Attor-
ney General Picrrepont has, we
think, always retained pleasant
remembrance of Southern lite,
and has felt kindly towards the
Southern people. His feeling OF
nationality, Of course, placed him
in the ranks Of the opposition to
secession rnd dissolution of the
Union, and finally brought him In
to atiiliation with the republican
party, and his decided talent has
given him his present high posi-.
ton in the government counsils'
From Mr.. Pierrepont's record, we
think we can saySith the vencr-
able Mr.. James Gillespie, who
was one of his patrons and friends
in his earlier days, wherever he
ho is aud to whatever party he
