JfKc career of Henry Burgcvinc is more than romantic, “ stranger than fiction.” and deserves a better record than the meager and often incorrect paragraphs which hare from time to’ time appeared in the columns of European and American .psperu. He was born in Newburn, North Karolina, in the year 1836. His (hither was a Frenchman, and an officer in the grand army of Napoleon. Subsequently he was in the service of Spain, and 'lime to America in the capacity of Surveyor General of Florida, married an American lidy, a:id died in 1843, leaving a family, consisting of his widow, two sons and si daughter. The eldest sou was, if We inis- tnkc not, a Brigadier General in the Con federate service, and is at present a xen of Arkansas, where the daughte resides, being also the w ife of Thofctas 1*.
