^ lay, we quote the impressive language uttered
from one of our pulpits by an eloquent
Divine:
u The intelligence of this morning, my
Christian friends, has filled thousands of
hearts, and will fill thousands more, with
sadness and anxiety. The Chief Magistrate
of our Union is no more ! One
. short month since, amidst the breathless
attention of an immense multitude, with
clear and solemn, voice, he called God to
witness that he would faithfully discharge
the duties of his high office. He has
now gone to appear in the presence of
that God. The praises of his friends, the
denunciations of his enemies arc alike
awed into silence before this dispensation
of mysterious Providence. Amid the
busy achemings of man the Supreme
Ruler has manifested his power; and we
read with trembling sadness his awful lesaon,
of the uncertainly of human life, the
emptiness of earthly glory."
* You have seen?how recently and j
sadly seen, that the summit of human j
power affords no security from the shafts |
of death. The illustrious man, lately al-j
roost a nation's idol, now lies in the calm |
deep slumber which knows no waking till t
the final day. Those deeds of service to
his country which were so familiar to the
lips of thousands, and that fidelity to his
country's good, lately so fervently expres.
sed, and as we trust so sincerely felt?
these and all else that graced hi3 cha-acter
have followed him to the bar of the j
just and *he merciful Judg". Before
that bar, my friends, we also are to an.
pear. We know not how soon. M {
we sou9e the present time as to prepare I
ourselves for that awful hour."
Immediately after the decease of the
President, Mr. Webster, Jr. Chief Clerk
io the Department of State accompanied
by Mr. Beall, an officer of the Senate,
sat out for the residence of the Vice President,
in Virginia, bearing to him the following
letter. ;
" Washington, April 4,184!.
?*To John Tuler,
" Vice President of the United States, j
Sir ; It has become our most painful i
duty to inform you that William Henry
Harrison, late President of the United
States, has departed this life.
"Tnis distressing event took place this
day, at the Presidents Mansion in this |
city, at thirty minutes before one in the j
morning.
** We loose no time in despatching the
Chief Clerk ir? the State Department as a
special messenger to bear you these melancholy
tidings.

REPORT OF THE PHYSICIANS.
Washington, April 4, 1841.
DkarSik: In compliance with the
nintiMt m*Hft to us bv vourself and the \
. ?, other
gentlemen of the Cabinet, the at. |
tending and consulting Physicians have
drawn up the abstract of a report on the
President's case, which I herewith transmit
to you. Very respectfully, your oh.
cdient servant,
THO. MILLER,
Attending Physician.
To the Hon. D. Webster,
1 Secretary of State.
On Saturday, March 27. 1891, President
H arrison, after several days' previous : 1
indisposition, was seized with a chill and
other symptoms of fever. The next day .
Pneumonia, with congestion of the liver ,
and lerangement of the stomach and bow- (
els was ascertained to exist. The age ,
and debility of the patient, with the immediate
prostration, forbade a resort to
general blood-letting. Topical depletion, |1
blistering, and appropriate internal remc. j
dies, subdued, in a great measure, the
disease of the lungs and liver, but the
stomach and intestines did not regain a
healthy condition. Finally, on the 3 I of
April, at 3 o'clock P. M., profuse diarrhoea
came on, under which he sank, at thirty
minutes to 1 o'clock, on the morning of
the fourth. j
The last words uttered by the President,
as heard hv D". Worrtbi.ngtou I
were these : Sir, I wish you to under- J
stand the true principles of the Govern- |
" v i I
ment. I wish them carried out. i a>K i
nothing more."

The funeral of the President was to
take place on Wednesday.
Appropriate orders were of course issued
from the Heads of the Army and
Navy Departments, to shew suitable re.
spect to the memory of the late President.
Agitation.?It.has been said that the
decision of the question whether or not a j
.U. S. Bank. sh^jLbe chartered by the
?ext Congress will depend upon the vote I
??
of Col. Pbeston. Although a large ma- the a
jority of the States are Whig, and be- Whij
lieved to be certainly favorable to a National
Bank, yet some of these States are
still represented by 44 Democratic" Sena- rrom
tors, and a few Senators who have been sj,ew
elected as Whigs will oppose the chartering 12,0(
of a bank. For the purpose of intimida- provi
ting Col. Preston and driving him either p'ace
to resign, or oppose the chartering of a
bank, if he is now favorable to it, the J
Columbia Carolinian lately proposed that jg to
public meetings should be held in the dif- chan,
ferent districts by those who are opposed must
to a bank to express their opinion on the 'on
subject, and obtain from Col. Preston an 1n*?
expression of his. It fu. ther proposes that, j
in case Col. Preston should not promise to .
vote against chartering a bank, the Gov- congt
ernor should forthwith call a meeting of ofsis
the Legislature, to scold him we suppose, large
for the Carolinian certainly knows the the w
Legislature can neither recall its Sena- ^ ^
the o
tor. nor compel him to vote on any ques- . .
r vis10j
tion against his will. The Charleston goutj
Mercury seconds the movement of the p
Carolinian, and one meeting we see has deavt
been held. It was at Rockville, in St. suhje
Johns' Colleton on the 31st of March.? e(*? '
The Chairman of the committee appoint- here:
ed was the Hon. W. B. Seabrook.?
Among the resolutions adopted one was
against a National Bank, one in favor of
.... that
the Sub-Treasury, one against the disb

imports, and another against any duty j *
at a7 on silks and wines. Another of 1
! sessic
their paradoxes is that a tax on imports is
a tax on exports?a tax on wines and I Ti
silks would be a tax on cotton, rice and to- provi
bacco. death
They ordered a copy of their resolu- dutie
tions to be forwarded to Col. Preston, Vice
with an enquiry whelher or not he will office
vole for a national bank. Incase of his Mr.'
giving an affirmative answer to this en. j By It
quirv, they directed the chairman to call j P^i
the meeting together again at the same i there
place. Mr. Seabrook made a speech in I the *
favor of the resolutions before they were R^pr
adopted. case
A correspondent of the Charleston rtnd 1
Courier ascribes to Mr. Seabrook the au? ded f
thorship of these proceedings, and ex. rpj
presses the opinion that he did not move rg>cej,
in the matter of his own accord, but at ^ t(
* -* * ** ta ti mi
trie suggestion ot mr. uamoun. ine fon? g
reason aligned for this opinion is that m0re
Mr. Seabrook "began to agitate against Th
Mr. P." the day he left Charleston, after jor
having, according to his own repeated nex|
declarations, sat up late the preceeding
night in company with Mr. Calhoun. The Th
Columbia Chronicle also intimates that chani
the movement of the Carolinian in the repca
matter was prompted by a suggestion from holde
the same quarter. S.ieh suspicions (for quori
the are confessedly nothing more) may selvej
be utterly groundless. We notice them chart
only as among the on dils in the political on ^
circles. They
During the discussions which prceed- Jorlty
ed the late Presidentail election, the lead- Until
ing, and indeed, the only prominent ques. atl(l 1
tion before the country was, Sub-Treasw thoris
ry or no Sub-Treasury ??or in other a't,es
words Sub Treasury or National Bank ? s*
For, on all hands, a National Bank is nient
considered the only alternative to the authc
Sub.Treasury ;?the pet-bank system is behal
given up every where. The decision Pena'
was in favor of a bank by the largest ma. them
jority of votes ever given in this country 8ay ^
on any contested question. Of the 26 yers 1

20, or nearly four fifths, voted the ^|(
Whig ticket. Several of these states are years
still represented in the Senate, either en- cuif,
tirely or in part by Sub-treasury mem- in W
bers, whilst only one, South Carolina is . ^
represented in part by a Whig. Now ?^a|
suppose it were possible by indignation ^ ^
meetings, or by an extra meeting of the ^
Legislature, to drive Col. Preston from . ..

right or wrong in this we do not noxv u;i- .

to say. But they had a right tode- por ^
cidc, and in the exercise of this right the
they have decided. They have most nn,j ,
nT>nii<vocallv evinced a determination hatin
to abolish the system; they have the nc
power to carry this determination into teen
effect, and all efforts to prevent their an Q
doing so must prove fruitless. Suppose, funer
then, that South Carolina could for a decei
time postpone their final action on the jfo
subject, would it be expedient to do so ?? lutioi
If the system must he abolished the soon- Rt?pr
er it is done, and something permanent gross
is substituted, the better for the country. Chal
If South Carolina could by the legitimate totra
exercise of her constitutional rights, con- and
strain the other states to adhere to the
system we do not deny that she would of thi
be justified in doing so. But what are apart
the facts? South Carolina alone, of all of du
nti-Whig stales, w represented by * ad
I in the Senate; whereas several mt
I states are represented by anti-Whig oui
tors, one of them (Tennessee) by a Cc
tor who received his appointment tor
the Executive, after his state had ice
n herself Whig by" a majority of
)0 votes. The constitution wisely
des that. Senators shall hold their f
s for the term of six years, and not
ly during the will of their conatitu-.
Now, if in the present ultra deift- a
ic age, this rule of the constitution
be practically abolished; if such pei
ge is to b? introduced that Senators
resign upon et#ry change of opin- Jj
in the states which they repre- 0
is the change to be confined to one * *
' Would South Carolina, if she
, effect a one sided change, in viola- ei
)f both the letter and the spirit of the 80
itution, which would cause the will na

st or most populous, to prevail over

of the constitution, why should

The news from England is deemed imtant,

of specie payments, and the ap.

in either of the others, and the imprisnent

of the 8th were full of fight, and alst
every remark in the press touching

Ider and in better temper, and the news

In regard to this noisy report I find
on reference to the proceedings of th<

s authenticity of the document of Mr,

is simply that he had no doubt of it:
thenticity, but that he had no officia
lormation of the fact. The charactei
the document gave rise to the doubts it

ch menacing language to a friend.?
nerican affairs were also alluded toil
