r P'HE Camrn.tnder in Chief, with deep
J, regret, has to announce, the death of
Major General JAMES JACKSON, who’
commanded the full division of militia, and
■ras one of the Senators, of this State, in
rac Congrelsof the United States.
This unfortunate intelligence was convey
ed to him on the 7th instant, by a letter da
ted, the rgch of last month, from the Gen
eral's Colleague, the Hon. Abraham Bald
win, in the following words:—“ The dif
<« tredjng talk, which my, letters have so
« Icnrr led you to exped, is at length cii
forced upon me, of announcing to you the
‘‘death of my beloved and much refpeded
u ColUague General Jackson. I have been
tt with him nil night, and doled his eyes just
“ at the dawning of the day.
“ It is now more than twenty years fmee
“we have been intimately affjetated in the
“duties of public life. A part of the duty
“ which I ieel to V.e left to me is, to dc
“ dare, that in sterling integrity and honest
“ devotion to the public good, I have never
” found his fupcrior."
Death has bereaved the State of a General
and a Statesman, who was no Ids valiant
in the field, than emin(|st in the cabinet. Da
ring our revolutionary war in the days of
peril, he exerted his utinoft powers in de
fence of his country’s rights, and performed
ads of heroism—and in her councils berth at
home and abroad, he advanced and fupportwi
the intcreft of the State, with ilern integri
ty, undaunted perfevcrance, perfpicnity of
mind and flow of eloquence, co great, were
his public virtues that, from an early part
of his life, he held the ilrft and mod diftia
guiiled appointments, both civil and milita
ry, in the gift ot his State.
To attest the loss Georgia lias fullained by
the death of her beloved General and patri
otic and able statesman, who yielded up his
last breath from home, in the fervicc cf his
country, and to manifefV the efiimaticn in
which his worth and services are held hy a
- grateful people, the Commander in Chief.
