Death of Presidents.
George Washington died at Mount Ver
non on the 14th of. December, 1799. in the
68th year of his age. Death came sud
denly to him—so suddenly that the ti
dings of his sickness rind hia decease sim
ultaneously reached the halls of Congress.
John Adams came to " the end of liv
ing " at his residence in Quincy, Mass., on
the 4th of July, 1826, realizing what day
it was and rejoicing in it. He gradually
and quietly expired at the patriarchal age
of four score years and ten.
Thomas Jefferson,.by an 'extraordinary
coincidence, breathed his last it -Monti
cello, on the same day that his venerable
compatriot, Adams, died—the jubilee of
American Independence. He had reached
the see of 83 years.
James Madison, the "man of the Con
stitution," and'one of the wised statesmen
our country has produced. peaCefully clos•
ed his earthly career at Montpelier, Va.,
on the 28th of June, 1836, in his eighty-
sixth year.
James Monroe died in the city' of New
York, on the 4th of July, 1831, in' his 80th
ye; r. He was a pure patriot and the last of
the Presidents who served in the eventful
ful days of the Revolution—having been a
Col. in the Continental army. He particular
ly enjoyed the confidence of Washington,
and the period, of his wise and peaceful
administration was chaacterized .as " the
era of good feeling."
Johyt Quincy Adams expired in the
capitol. at Washington. on the 23d of Feb
ruary. 1848; literally dying in the service
ef his country, at the age of 81. To the
last lie was of the elassef life's busy men;
and identified as he bad been from boy
hood with the putilio service, it was sol
emnly striking and appropriate that the
halls of the national councils should hear
his dying words. He wasatruck by para'y-'
ails while in his seat in the House of Rep
resentatives.
Andrew Jackson died at the Hermitage
near Nashville, on the Sib of June, 1845,
in his 79th year. He must have been a
great man, indeed, who could cluster the
affections of a whole people around him
as this distinguished patriot and soldier
did. His popularity had no parallel:but
that of Washington.
Martin Van Buren died at his birth
place, Kinderhook, Columbia county, N.
Y., on the 24th of July, 1862, in his 80th
year. His administration, from 1837 to
1841. was a period marked by great finan
cial distress throughout the country,whioh
was charged by his political opponents up
on the pclicy.he pursued in managing the
public finances through the agefiey of the
independent treasury. He failed of re•
nomination for a second terwhowever,
on account of his opposition to the annex :
ation of Texas.
William Henry Harrison died on the
4th of April, 1841, exactly one month af.
ter bis inauguration, aged 68. He was the
first President who died in office and in
the Executive mansion, Belied gained a
deep hold upon the people's heart, and
to one living at.the time can ever forget
the profound and universal expressions of
sympathy and sorrow which his death on.
casioned.
John Tyler. elected Vice President, and
who succeeded Gen. Harrison for the re
mainder pf his term. renounced his alle
giance to the United States in 1861, and
died the following year in Richmond, Vs.,
in his seyenty•secotid year;. being at the'
time a Senator from Virginia in-the Con
federate Congress, then in session at Rich
mond.
James Knox-Polk died at his home in
Tennessee, on the 15th of June, 1849, on
ly three months after the expiration of
his term of office, and in his fifty-fourth
year. He was a man of unquestionahle
integrity and talent, and achieved the
highest honor his country could besiow at
a much earlier age than any of his prede
cessors.
Zachary Taylor's death, on the 9tli . of
July, 1850, when he had been but sixteen
months in office, called forth the deepest
expressions of a nation's grief, and every
where the full heart of the people was
touched beyond what adequate words can
utter. He died tat Abe Presidential 'man

Abraham:Lit:keel' death, on the 14th
of April, 186.5, , (01e month and ten days
after his sec on d inauguration), was one
that shocked the - ,country beyond any
thing that - ever. occurred in its history, -
and.sent a thrill of horror throunhout the
world. All his predeoessors had descend-,ed to the tomb m the ordinary course o

Tram the Aureate, Ga., Transcript, Noy. 9 j
Hundreds of black laborers have flocked
into our cities from the plantatiOns, and,
have idled through this streets, from day
to day, without any ostensible means of
support. They have many of them abjured
all regular employment and are seeking
for little jobs, which will occupy them for
an hour or two or a day or two. A great
fellow, with the brawn of a Hercules, will
start a little grocery store on a peck of
potatoes and a chicken. Two or three
sympathizing friends will always be found
by the side of the proprietor, as he sits in
the street,. watching his store atld waiting
for custom. Perhaps they are speculators,
watching the variations of the market ;
perhaps they are the clerks of the estab
lishment. We passed one night a group
of negroes lying asleep around a fire in a
shed., All the weatherboarEling,had been
burned, and they had already began to
attack the roof. A few nights after the
roof had entirely disappeared, and they
were sleeping undel• the open sky. Many
thefts occur, as the writer of this article
an testify, who has ,been robbed three
times in as many months. The proportion
of deaths hag become very large; and this
is not wonderful, considering what hovels
are crowded with shiftless and destitute
families. who have never been accustomed
to care for themselves heretofore, and who
have to learn the hard lesson of thrift and
foresight all at o'nce. We have undoubt
