DILLINGHAM- , CHARLES CARROLL. Churlcs Carroll, of Carrollton, was born uit the twentieth of September, 1737, at Annapolis, in the State of Mary lard. He descended from a highly respectable Irish faimily, who had emigrated to this country in the reign of William and- Ma ry, and wet* distinguished as patriots in the troubles of the colony, which soon af ter that period spfting up. For awhile the catholics, were persecuted, and de privod of the right of suffrage; but by t manly resistance to tyranny, they were restored to the privileges grautod to them by charter. At a very early age Charles Carroll, ot Carrollton, was sent to St; Omers to bo educated; from thence, after a short time, he was removed to Rheims, to the college nl Louis Le Grand; and from thence to one of the best institutions in France for tho study of civil law. After becoming well versed in this science, more calculated than any other to expand the mind for the reception and discussion of great political truths, ho passed over to London, and commenced his term at the Temple for the study of common law. This study sharpens tho wits, aud opous the great fountain of Anglo Saxon liberty to tho patient investigator of En glish history. Aftor finishing his studies nod his travels, he returned to his native land at the ripe age of twenty-seven, and was hailed by the best judges as a well read scholar and an accomplished gentle man. Foroign courts had not damped his lovo of liberty. At this period the dis cussions with the mother country and the coloDips, upon great points of national law, bud commenced: and soon were car ried on with great warmth and pertinacity by both parties. Mr. Carroll did not hesitate for n moment, but took side with the lovers of liberty. He wielded a ready pen, and it was soon engaged in tho glo rious causo. Liku others, he for some time did not wish to be known; but his writings were so satisfactory to his coun trymen, that his secret could not long be kept. Some of his political antagonists wore among the first men in Maryland.— He foresaw that an appeal mast be made to arms, and ho boldly advanced his senti ments on this head, and recotnmendod due preparations for such an event. At this time but few voices had bean rawed to this in any part of the country. Early in 1776, ho was sent as one of a commis sion lo Canada, to induce the people of that province to join us in opposing the mother country. The disasters which had previously befslUn our arms in that quarter rendered the mission ineffectual. Mr. Carroll returned in June, 1776, and instantly repaired to the convention of Maryland, of which he was a member; aud thence urged them to withdraw the instructions that body had given their del egates in congress, not to vote for inde pendence,and at length found his exertions crowned with success. Mr. Carroll was now appointed a delegate to congress, and, with his colleagues, was free to act upon tho great question as they pleased. On the 18th of July, he presented bis ere' dentials to the continental Congcss at Philadelphia, and on the tecond day of August following subscribed his name to llm immortal instrument. He was con sidered now as one of the most fearless men of the age; for he had more to risk in point of pro|ierty, than any other man in tho whole community, Haucock not ex cepted. On the first day be entered Congress he was appointed to the board of war, of which he was an efficient mem ber. During the whole of the periloua con Diet he bora his part with unabated ardour, of en boingatthesometime a membtr ofthe convention of his oative state and a mem ber of congress; u double duty, which re quired greet energy and industry to per form; but, so ably did he discharge his du- ; ties, that both bodies wen satisfied with hia attention to each. In 1778,j he left congress; (and devoted himself to the councils ot his native state) but alwaya with an eye to the great interests of thn nation. !Vben the constitution of tho United Stf'cs went into operation, Mr. Carroll was elected a Senator from Maryland, and rook his seat in the city of New York at the organization of the government, on the 13th of April, 1789. He was elected a second timo to this situation. Ilq was never an office seeker, nor ever from caution or timidity flinched from any honest responsibility, in tba darkest hour of the republic. In the year 1801, he quitted public life, ar far as such a man could do so,— He had now reached bis grand climacteric, and was willing and desirous that younger men should take the field of politics, hardly dreaming that he was to enjoy uuoiher age ot man, in the fulfnets of in tellectual vigour. These last thirty year* of life have passed away in serenity and happiness, almost unparalleled in the^isto- ry of man, He has enjoyed a| It were, an Indian summer of existence, a tranquil and lovely period, when the leevea of th* forest are richly Variegated, but not yet soured; when tho parent-bird and tho spring nestling are of the tame flock, and move on equal wing; when the day of in crease and the day of (ha necessity of provisions are gone; when the fruits oftho earth are abundant, and the lakes of tho woods are smooth and joyous as if reflec ting the buwers ol Eden. Such an Indian summer has this patriot enjoyed; hia life has been tbrico, yea, four times blessed; : n his binh and education, in his health, in his basket aud in his store; blessed in his numerous and honorable progony, which extend to several generations; blessed in the protracted measure of days, in which have been crowded the events of many centuries; and blessed in the wonderful prosperity of his country, whose popula tion has since his birth increased from nio* hundred thousand souls to more than twelve millions, enjoying the blessings of freemen, ft Is, perhaps, from the fact, that the world think* it oulte enough foe one mortal that he should bo virtuous, prosperous, enjoy a green old age, that an analysis of his intellectual powers, or a dev scriptiqn of his rare attainments, has sel dom been attempted; bat talents and attain ments hn had, that made him one of tho most successful ol the business men of tho momentous period in which he lived—a period when that which tho head con ceived (he hand was ready to execute.-— Tltore were too few at that time, antf those loo zoalous, to make the proper di vision of labour. The senatot armed for the field, aud the soldier met with tho Conscript Fathers. Mr. Carroll was an orator. His elo quence was of the smooth, gentle, satis factory kind, delighting all and convincing many. It is not preteoded that, like John Adams, ho came dotrti upon his hearers as with the thunderbfast from Si nai, raising the tables of independence on high, and threatening in his wrath to break them if they were not received by the leoplo; nor that like Dickinson, be ex- lausted rhetoric and metaphysics to gain hia end, and was forever striving to be heard; but Carroll came to his subject well informed, thoroughly imbued with its spirit, and with happy conceptions and graceful deliveiy, and with chaste and delicate language, ha, without violence, conquered the nnderstandmgs, unit led captive the souses of his hearers. All was natoral, yet sweet and polished as ed ucation coult *>« ild make it. He never teemed fatigued with his labours, or faint with hie exertions. His blood and judgement were so well commingled, that his highest ef forts were as easy und as natural at if be had been engaged id the course of ordin ary duties. This happy faculty still con tinues with the patrisreh, for his conversa tion has now that elegant vivacity and dal- icacv that characterised the sago Nestor of elder times, whose word* fall like v*r» nsl svawv u ho spall* lo lha people. no smslTdei His serenity, and in perhaps, his longevity, may be owing to the permanency of his principle*. lo eaaly life ho fouoded bis political croed on the rights of matt, and reposing hie faith in the religion of hit fathers, ho hn felt none of those vasciliadoM end changes so common in times of political or reli gious agitations. It were good for tho nation that he should long continue amongst gs, for in his presence all party feud* are hushed; and the demagogue, accustomed to vociferate elsewhere, in his vanity to bo hoard, talks net Rbove his breath when the aged patriot is near. lo a republic, where title* are not known* wo ought to mako fi peerage of talents, virtuous patriotism, and ago, that every youth may learn to Admire, respect, and imitate the wise and good. With all onf wishes and our prayers for bis stay hero on earth, the patriarch must soon be gath ered to his fathers and bis name given to the historian and the poet.
