OBITUARY.



On the Hth Ct september, 1876, died in st
James Parish, La of cancer, ROBERT BARN
WELL REETT, Hged seyenty-five years. De.
scended from ancestors OF note in England,
and famous in colonial times Of South Caro-
lima, he was at an early age Attorney General
Of South Carolina, the Repress ptative and
Senator in Congress from that state for fifteen
yeaIs The leader of his party after the death
of Calhoun, he sustai ned the influence of his
State in the councils of the nation. The peer
OF Hayne and Preston, he suffered not their
glory to be dimmed by 1eebler advocacy of
their cause. Among the most stormy political
evei Is preceding our late war, ne was a
m ghty champion of the right, and never
sWerved from the cause he believed TO be the
true one. man of proud bearing and tmpes
riOus Will, his courage never rose higher than
when, having fended Mr.. Clements, Of Ala,
he was challenged by the latter, 10 whom he
replied in words memorable: " For many
yedIs have been prOfe ssing Christian, and
cannot disgrace my profession. L fear God
more tnan fear man and SO refused. In
1882 upon the death of his wife, he resigned
mis- seat in United States Senate and since that
date was never in public life till at the head of
the South Carolina delegation to Montgom-
cry. In tnat convention he was chairman OF
the committee that reported the Confederate
constitution, and labOred eagerly for the sue
cess of his peoples hopes. He was the author
Of the Ordinance of Sc cessiOn and of the Ad-
dress OF South Carolina to her sister states.
During the war the productions Of his pen
we're marked by the ability and pure saxon
form of expression, which distinguished all
his efforts. His essays on po iucal subjecI S,
published at home and abroad, put the views
of his party and the true inter probation OF the
constitution in light so strong that the
smoke from the battlefield alone could cloud
them. Remem bering how potent once were
his words, and now beautiful has been heir
fruit, yet for him, once a Prince of Israel"
have we now only the roud and tender men,
Ories of glorious past, when he gave to his
tate the service of his talents, and she was
proud to receive them, broken in all his
hopes for his p ople's g3od, broken In all save
honor that men hold DEAR his idols shat
tered, and ashes to his lips from whence brave
counsel and noble words once came, old, blind
and weary, he has tottered to his couch OF rest.
