ot great piety by wnom a borne was provided
for tbe otherwise friendless jouib, and tbe op.

named J. J. Borie, wbo came from Bordeaux to
this city, and was ex eosuelv engaged here In
mercantile pursuits, and died about the
year 1835. He received his education
ut tbe University of Pennsylvania, In this city,
whlcb institution he enteredattbe age ot fifteen,
and at tweniy-lour he weut to Pans, wnere he
rou: plated his education. Alter travelling in
Ruiooo he returned to Philadelphia, enteiine
into business with bis father as a member of
tbe firm ot J. J. Bone & Son. under wh'ch
stvle the firm was continued until 1838. about
1 bree years afti r bis lather's death. Then ha
became associated with tho late General
Boblen, wbo was killed during the
war, under tbe style ol Brio & bohleo. lu
1841 tbe style of the tirm was changed to Bono
ivurott, and suo?eqneutiy to that ot McKean,
Borle & Co.. of No. 153 Dock street, as eeneral
importers, tipaed lu the Mexican, West and
ist Ind e, and Canton Hade. In 1847 be vas
electi d Presldeot of the Bank ot Commerce,
but relinquished Ibe position in 1860, to take a
trip to Euro) e for the sikc ot bis health. In his
business relations, by a display of tact, judg
ment, and business capacity, be has succeeded
In amassing a I uge lortune. Politically he was
an old-line Whig, contenting himselt with
determined opposition to the Democratic party,
and especially devoted to the principles of
protect i n to American industry, a quiet and
substantial following ol Henry Cluy. After tho
election ot Gov. Sey mour in 1832, a number .of
tho citizens of Philadelphia tele that it was
necetsary to take some eteps to organize against
tbe threatened advauce of secession into tbe
Norib. From this determination arose tbe first
Union League ot the country, known as the
great Union League ot this city. Mr. Borie was
one of its lounders, and is now Us Vice-President.
With this exception be has never taken
part in politics never eveu attending political
meetings, except those held in the Lesgue.
During the wr he was among tbe most promi
nent of our citiens in support of tho war, and
gave largely to tbe enlistment of soldiers in tbe
defense of the Union. Since tbe war he was intro
duced to General Grant by General Meade. Tbe
acquaintaucesoon ripened into friend-hip. There
is no citizen who bus given more effective and
nnosentatious support to tbe Union cause; no
man has been more thoroughly identified with
progressive principles than Mr. Bone; no
citizen in the State stands higher, and his
appointment cannot full to give general
sat s'acnon, despite tbe protests of McUlure
aiid tbe other professional pulltlciaus.
Mr. Boiie is a gentleman of thorough educa
tion aud of most polished manners. His
urbanity is well known to evi-ry Philadelphlao.
Of bis capacity and fitness for the position to
which ho has been confirmed there cannot bo
the most remote doubt. His years, however,
thouah they have not brought with them the
weMkness aud infirmities of age, have nurtured
in bim a complacent desire for those home
couvoits against which any olllciul position must
liecestarily militate. Ibis deislie his ample
fortune has enubled him to gratify: and blessed
and comeuted us he now is in his private
sphere, he feels very loth to exchange it lor tbe
cares and pt rplexities of "place and rower."
Grave doubts tre entertained by many of those
w ho know him Intimately, in relation to bis
acceptance of the portfolio. He appears to be still
undecided in his own niiud; and while he listens
pHtiently totbe arguuieuU of his Philadelphia
hiends who admire him to accept, he weighs
these same arguments in bis own mental bal
ances. He will probably signify his Intention
in a day or two. If, then, he does take the
proffered position, ho will have been actuated
to it more by a personal respect and admiration
for General Grant, who ottered it, than Irom
auv wlb within himself to figure la politics ft.

John A. J. Crenwell, the Potttnrtter
Ueneral,
was born In Cecil county, Md., a 1828; was
grnduated at Dickinson College, Pennsvlvanta,
in 1848; was ndmt'ted to the Oar ofMurvland iu
1850, Not until 1860 did he raie bis head above
the suriace in political aOairs, and even then
hi language and course were ot tbe accepted
local school. In 1861 and 1862 be was a member
ot the Maryland Hou-e of Delegates, and in tbe
latter year be served for a time as an Assistant
Adjutant-General of tbe Mate.
In 1862 be was elected to Congress from the
Cecil dieirict, and took bis seat beside the great
Baltimore orator, at the beginning of tbe Thirty,
seventh Cone ress. Here he remained for some
little time in tbe usual ob.-curlty of a new mem
ber. Ab ll for tbe employment of negroes as
soldiers first drew him out. Davis bad been
preparing tbe way for bim by assuring his
Iriends that Crcswell would yet make his mark.
When he rote, therefore, he soon secured the
attention of those about him. au unusual thing
tor a new member lit tbe House, rising In the
midst of a debate, to read a written sdc ch.
He was most warmly congratulated as he took
his seat, aid the effort was on all hands
pronounced one of tbe most successful ever
made in that hail by a new member. Frooi that
day he rapidly rose to a commanding position
in State and national politics. Tbe death of
Governor Hicks soon made a vacancy in the
Benate, aud to the hirror of Ihe slowgoing
Marylauders this "new man" was put up lor
United Mates Senator.
At the outlet, Creswell seemed to have no
show. But the other candidates were dextrously
killed oil or got out of the way, aod the Legis
lature fairly eornered into his electiou. In the
Senate be soon took high rank; and woa it
without Incurring the bosUltty apt to be ex
hibited by that grave b'idy toward voang men
wbo try to get on too fast. 1 n 1834 Mr. Crcs
well was a delegate to the Convention in Balti
more which renominated Mr. Lincoln. Iu
1866 he was a conspicuous delegate to the
touthern Loyal isls' Convention in Pniladelph a.
In politics Mr. Crcswell is still a radical
Republican, although during last spring he was
opposed by a small party, of whom Judge Band,
of Baltimore, was the leader, wbo might be
called tbe Wendell PbilUps Kadicilaof Mary
land. These sent a rival delegation to Chicago,
which was not recognized, and tbey hid onl a
trifling strength at the polls. Mr. Cres veil Is
a law.ver in large practice : a skilful politician,
aid eloquent orator, aod a man ct literiry
taste", and of far higher scholarship tbau la
common among politicians.

years he lived in tbat and other Western cities.
He was admitted to the bar about the vearl840,
and practised with gicat success in Middlesex
end tbe neighboring counties. After a few
years he was apnointed a Judtrc of the Court of
Common Plea, but be resigned aud retarneJ to

an oflice in Boston, where be acqmred an
rviensive and lucrative business. In April,
1851). he was appointed a Justice of
the Supremo Court ol Massachusetts, and has
6liicu held that oilice. Upou the re-lunation of
Chief Justice B'gelow, lu 1867, he was seneraliy
believed to be the proper persjn to succeed to
tbat position, both on account of his beinir tbe
setilor member of tbe bench, and because of
his eminent ability as a lawyer. The failure
of Governor Bullcck to appoint bim gave much
dissatistNCtion in Massachusetts. Asa lawyer,

tbe Massachusetts reports aro reoleio with evi
dences ot bis (hill and learning, both in his
arguments be'ore and his opin ons after ha was

years a member of tho corporation of Haivard
College, but resigned that portion last year, and
was immediately afterwards elected an overseer
of tho Colli ge. Judge Hoar was always asttootr
antl slavery man, and while ho h ts at all times
manifested a deep Interest In politics, ho was
especially active before his elevation to the

Mount Vernon, Ohio, at which olaco be subse
quently studied law ami whs admitted to the
bar. He soon disolayed f mneitt talents in the
profession he had selected, in a few years alter
Lis admission, he was second to none of his
brother lawyers, both as a criminal prosecutor
and as an sdvoca'e. As a popular Bpekr he
likewUe attained quite a fame, aud was knowu
for bis vcr.-a'ility ot talent, combined with
great indus'ry and steudlueeg of purpose.
In 1844, being then thirty-five yenrs
of age, he was elected a Kepresen' alive from his
adopted ta'. to tbe Tentj-iiiuiu Cocgrets.
He served on the Committee on Invalid Pen
sions. At the expiration ot bis term be returned

and In 1860 was elected delegate to the Chicago
Convention. In 1861 he received the appoint

and conducted tbe affairs of that
oflice with great. and acknow

blun'ed by bis elee'ion to the lower houe of
ti e Legislature ot bis State. In that b dy he at
once took a leading part, and soon became an
acknowledged leader of his pirty. Asa Re
publican of tbe most radical Btnmp, lie urged
forwiird and shaped much ot tbe Wislaitou
wbicb mxkes part of the official reairdsof the
State of Ohio during tbat mimenious period ot
our nat'onal history. In 1864 he was a member
of the Baltimore Uonven'ion. Acting as chair
man of tbe Ohio deleeation, he constantly,
z- a'ou-lv, and eloquently supported tho re
nounliiat on of Present Lincoln, and, to his
great present rceret, also advanced the claims
ol Mr. Johoon lor tbe Vice-Presldenliul place

tbe ensuing campaign. To the Thirty-ninth
Conprcss he was al-o elected, In which he served
as chairman cf tbe Committee ou Claims. Ho
