In Shis city, the intelligence, although
not altogether nhespected, produced
the strongest sensation, and spread a
deep gloom over the whole communi
ty. And yet it is our duty as men
and Christians, to bow in a proper
spirit to the decrees of an All-wise
Providence. '•
W. B. HARRISON vra* bbrn in
Virginia, on the Oth of Feboary, 1773.
llts father, Benjamin Harrison, was
one of the patriots of the Revolution.
He was a very distinguished member
of the first Cohgrcss of the United
States, which met at Philadelphia, in
1773, and was one as the most con
spicuous of the signera of the Declar
ation of Independence. He after
wards rendered important services
to bis country, by his energetic and
patriotic measures as governor of liis
native state, Virginia. This eminent
patriot died in 1701; leaving his son,
William, under the guardianship of
his friend, llie celebrated Robert
Morris.
Yonng Harrison was educated at
Hampden Sydney College, and by the
advice of his friends, turned his atten
tion to the study of medicine. But
about the period when lie had com
pleted his education, soon after the
death of his father, the increased and
barbarous hostilities of the Indians on
our northwestern borders, began to
oxcite a feeling of indignation through
•the whole country. In this genera)
•excitement the young student parti
cipated as warmly, that lie resolved
to relinquish his professional pursuits,
and join the army destined the de
fence of the Ohio frontier.^
He received the commission of an
Ensign in the United States Artillery
in 1791- when he was but eighteen
years'of age—was soon‘after promo
ted to a Lieutenancy, and foughtlin-
dec General » Wayne, who spoke of
. his gallant conduct in tlie most flatter
ing manner. Afterthe dcsneralo bat
tle of the Miami, he was promoted
• and placed in command of Fort
.Washington—the most important sta-
.. tion on the Western frontier. He re-
mained in ihe array till the close of
• the year 1797, when, as there wa* no
longer an opportunity to serve his
country m the field, he resigned his
commission, to commence his career
of civil services. He was almost im
mediately appointed secretary, and
ex-cfltcio, lieutenant governor of the
Northwestern Territory; which then
embraced the whole extent- of. our
country lying northwest of the Ohio
river; thus receiving his first civil ap
• point ment in that part of our country
4 which lie had periled his life to defend.
At the age of 20 lie was elected to
Congress, where ho distinguished
himself as an able and efficient rep
resentative, and was subsequently ap*
pointed Governor of Indiana Terrir

THE FUNERAL CEREMONIES.
Wednesday having been set apart for
the solemnities of the Funeral of tlie
late President, some anxiety was fell,
in tlie early part of the morning, as
to the weather, for the sky was over
cast, and fears were entertained least
it should come on to rain ; but as the
day advanced these apprehensions
were dissipated, and, though it con
tinued rather cool, this did but favor
the march of the troops and of the
other numerous collections of persons
who formed portions of the Funeral
Procession.
At sunrise, the sound of cannon from
the several military stations in the

very richly attired, the Washington
