    The Dcftth f Mr. Jaaoti Rldgvvay'.
Mr. Jacob Rtoo wat, vrho, since the decease of
Stephen Oirard, has hern regarded at the wealthiest
citicen of Philadelphia, departed thii life on Sunday
morning tt II o'clock, at his residence in Chesnut
elreet opposite Independence Hull, in the 75th
year of hie age. lie hid Wn ill Tor some days,
nd wa attended in his last houra by several of
our most eminent physicians. Mr. Ridgway was
V nocked down in the street a few weeks ago by a
horse and vehicle, and was indisposed from the
time of the accident. He wa a self-made man,
and died worth, it is probable, about f 6,000,000 in
property of varioua kinds, tn early life, Mr. Ridg
way waa a ehip-Cariientr-r. He was subsequently
American Consul at Antwerp, during a most criti
cal period of the last European war. He also rr
aided for some time at Paris, and then returned
to this country, where, his health failing, he was
recommended to visit the South. He did n,
but experiencing tittle benefit, he arrived at the
conclusion that the want of employment was the
real source of his disease, and he returned to Phil
adelphia. He resided here for the last yeara of his
life, and was one of the most useful of our citizens,
was constantly engnged in building and other
laudable undertakings, and at the time of his decease
owned several hundred houses in the city and
country, aa well as entiles in different parts of the
Union, especially in Delaware and New Jersey.
His immediate heirs are a son, Mr. John Ridgwny,
and two daughters Mrs. Dr. Rush and Mrs.
Roatch. The latter i a widow; and neither of the
daughters have children. Mr. Ridgway has con.
slantly engaged upward of 200 men, house carpen
ters, painters and ollur mechanics, and hW loss,
therefore, will be seriously felt, He was regardej
aa an excellent landlord. A friend mentioned to
us on Saturday, as an instance of his liberality in
assisting others, that on one occasion he loaned the
late Mr. Guier, his note at 18 months for f 100,000,
which was discounted by Mr. GirarJ. He died
surrounded by his friends and family, and his fune
ral will probable lake place on Wednesday.

of William Ayres, of the borough of Duller, the

to have his son legitimatized, an I an act lo that ef

on ihe charge of robbing a house at point Petre of
$10,000 at the time of the earthquake there, con
victed, and sentenced to ten yeaialaW in the gal
leys in France, whither he waa to he sent. A tet
ter has since been received in Ronton from ('apt.
Coziens, written at Guadeloupe, when he was a.
waiting his trial on the above ch rge. He says he
was innocent of any intention of stealing tho mo
ney, which was brought on bord his brig the day
alter the earthquake, by persons to whom, it after
wards appeared, it did not Montr, He adds that it
Was thought by all there that he should be acquit
ted ; but that a petition to the Governor for further
examination had been drawn up by the captains
nd merchants there, in ease he was condemned.

received notice to appear before John M. Read
and B. Gerhard, Esqrs. who have been appointed
Commissioner for that purpose, to testify aa to the

has been instituted by Commander Mackenzie a

Ten Thousand Dollars Rscovehed. The

the most enlightened people in the world, and
Paris "the capitale du monde." A French
Geography in the usual classification of coun

of this in the fact, that at the beginning of the
