DEATH OF NATHANIEL MACON. The Warrenton, N. C. Reporter of Satur day last, comes shrouded in mournmsr for the death of One of the most virtuous aiid il lusir'lotts men, who graced our country. The Reporter announces the melancholy intelligence in the following simple terms: "It is with feelings of deep regret we have to announce the death of the Hon. Nathaniel Macon. Ho departed this life at his residence in this county, on Thursday morning last, the 2'Jlh of June, in (lie 83d year of his agei" The whole nation Will sincerely share iii this deep regrei. Mr. Macon was one of those patriots who fill u vast space in the nation s eyei lie was along time a mem ber of CbngresB from the state of North Car olina! lid Was in the House of Represen tatives in the trying crisis of '08-00 and for many years aftcrlvards. lie was once Speaker of the House and ho subsequent ly served as a member of the Senate of the U. Stales At all times he was a firm Re publican the pure patriot the excellent citizen the honest man. No one ever more completely realized the elevated char aceroftlio Roman poet; "Jimtem et Una com propohilo virnm." But we forbear we leave it to aider pens to do justice to Nathaniel Macbn. Ho was the bosom friend of Jefferson and of Madisoh ho one vas more devoted to him, than John Randolph no one had fo med a loftier opinion of him, than he ui I upon tho most intimate acquaintance. In the paper which ho wrote for his last will in January, 1832, he leaves tho follow ing memorable tiibuto in honor of his frjend: "To Nathaniel Macon I give and be queath my oldest high silver candlesticks, my silver punch ladle with whaI6riono han dle, a pair of silver cans with handles, and my crest engraved thereon, my hard metal dishes that have my crest of J. R. in old English letters engraved thereon, also the plates with the' same engraving, the choice of foUr of hiy best mares and geldings, nnd tho gold watch by Roskell, that was Tudb's with the gold chain; and may every bless ing attend him, tho best and purest and wi sest man that I ever knew." Seldom ever was any knowlcdgo given to keep but to impart: the grace of this rich jewel is lost in concealment. Let us give our aid to good feeling and intelligence. The , Breviers of Albany vs. E.
