Universally beloved in the walks ol peace,and distinguished by his ability in ihe councils of his country,he has been yet more illustriously distinguished in the field. During the late war, lie was Unger in actual service than any other General Officer ; lie was, perhaps, Miner in action taun any one of them, and never sustained a defeat."
