The Hon. OLIVER ELLSWORTH, entered Yale College in the year 1762, and continued in that seminary three years, when he went to the college at Princeton, in New Jersey, and there finished his education. He was admitted to the har in 1771, and soon rose to great distinction among his professional brethren. Upon being appointed state attorney for the county, he removed to Hartford, where he resided several years, and was universally considered as at the head of the har. In 1776, he was appointed, hy the legislature, a delegate to the continental congress. In 1780, he was elected a member of the council ; a place which he occupied for four years; and in 1784 he was appointed judge of the superior court. In 1787, he was chosen a member of the convention which formed the constitution of the United States, and was one of the most able and efficient members of that dignified assembly. When that document was submitted to the people of the states for their approbation, he was elected a member of the state convention chosen for that purpose, and probably had more influence in procuring its adoption, than any other member of that body. At the organization of the national government, he was appointed a senator of the United States. He held his seat in that body until March, 1796, when he was appointed chief justice of the United States. In 1779 he was nominated envoy extraordinary to France; and having finished the negotiation, with which he and his associates were entrusted, with the French government, he visited England for the benefit of his health, which had been seriously impaired by the voyage to Europe. Whilst he was in England, he resigned the office of chief justice of the United States. Immediately after his return to this country, he was elected a member of the council, and was appointed chief justice of the state- an office which he declined, in consequence of the ill state of his health. He remained, however, in the council until his death. which occurred in November, 1807.
The following account of this distinguished gentleman, was penned by one of his most intimate friends (President Dwight's Travels in New England and New York.) :
" Mr. Ellsworth was formed to be a great man. Ilis person was tall, dignificd and command- iug ; and his manners, though wholly destitute of haughtiness and arrogance, were such as

irresistibly to excite in others, whenever he was present, the sense of inferiority. His very attitude inspired awe. His imagination was uncommonly vivid; his wit brilliant and piercing ; his logical powers very great, and his comprehension fitted for capacious views and vast designs. Intense thought appeared to be his amusement, and he unfolded his views, ou every occasion, with an arrangement singularly clear aud luminous. Perhaps no judge ever more delighted or astonished an intelligent assembly by extricating a cause, perplexed in law, fact and testimony from all its embarrassments, aud exhibiting it perfectly to the comprehension of plain common sense. His eloquence, and indeed almost every other part of his character, was peculiar. Always possessed of his own scheme of thought conceroiog every subject which he discussed, ardent, bold, intense aud masterly, his conceptions were just and great; his reasonings invin- cible; his images glowing ; his sentiments noble; his phraseology remarkable for its clearuess and precisiou; his style concise and strong, and his utterance vehement and overwhelming. Universally, his eloquence strongly resembled that of Demosthenes; grave, forcible, aud inclined to severity. In the numerous public stations which he filled, during a period of more than thirty years, he regularly rose to the first rank of reputation - and iu every assembly, public and private, in which he appeared after he had fairly entered public life, there was proba- bly no man when Washington was not present, who would be more readily acknowledged to hold tbe first character. 'To this superiority of intelligence, his moral attributes were peculiarly suited, In private life he was just and amiable -in public life his impartiality, fairness, integrity and patriotism, awed, and defied even calumny and suspiciou. Retentive as his mind was, he must, from his intense application to public affairs, have lost much of that ready recollection, and that exact knowledge of law, which are necessary for the bench. Yet he sustained the office of chief justice of the United States, with high and increasing reputation throughout every part of the Union. As a senator he was pre-eminent. His mind discerned political subjects with an intu - ition peculiar to himself."
It may be added, that in the highest excitement of party spirit, no attack was ever made npon his public integrity, or private worth.
We have not space sufficient to portray at length, the character of this excellent man. For a more extended notice of his life and works, the reader is referred to the discriminative article, in Allen's Biog. Dict., and to Santvoord's Lives of the Chief Justices. It is understood also that Prof. Jackson, late Professor in Trinity College, Hartford, and now of Hobart Free College, New York, . has been for many years engaged on a large and elaborate biography of Chief Justice Ellsworth, which, from his well kuown abilities, and the numerous facilities which have been placed at his disposal, we have no doubt will be fully worthy of his eminent subject.
We subjoin the copy of a letter, now in the possession of Mr. O. K. Teft, Esq. of Savannah, Ga., which is remarkably characteristic of the Chief Justice. It was addressed to his wife during his absence in France :
PARIS, August 5, 1800.
DEAR MRS. ELLSWORTH :
I sball leave France next month, let our business, which is yet unfinished terminate as it may. If it please God that I see my family and friends once more, I shall certainly love them better than ever. OLIVER ELLSWORTH.
His monument in the Old Cemetery of W., bears the following inscription :
" In Memory of OLIVER ELLSWORTH, LL. D., an assistant in the Council, and a Judge of the Superior Court of the State of Connecticut. A member of the Convention which formed, and of the State Convention which adopted the Constitution of the United States, senator and Chief Justice of the U. S . one of the Envoys Extraordinary and Ministers Plenipotentiary who made the Convention of 1800, between the United States and the French Republic.
Amiable and exemplary in all the relations of domestic, social and christian character, per- maoently useful in all the offices he sustained, whose great talents, under the guidance of inflexible integrity, consummate wisdom and enlightened zeal placed him among the first of the illustrous statesmen who achieved the Independence. and established the American Republic. Born at Windsor, April 29, 1745, and died Nov. 26, 1807."
Chief Justice Ellsworth had four sons: OLIVER, jr .; MARTIN ; (Hon.) WILLIAM WOLCOTT, and ()Ion.) HENRY L.

OLIVER ELLSWORTH, Jr .. was an amiable and interesting young man, who after finishing his collegiate educatiou, accompanied his father in his embassy to France. Soon after his return, his health became impaired, and after a gradual decline, he died in the 25th year of his age, July 4th, 1805.
Major MARTIN ELLSWORTH, recently deceased, was a gentleman of fine abilities, and high character; he resided in Windsor, on the old homestead, which still preserves, internally and externally, the appearance wbich it wore during the lifetime of his father. His wid. survives , him.

Elizur Goodrich, of New Haven, and settled at Windsor on the estate of his father, in the practice of his profession and the pursuits of agriculture. He was appointed by Gen. Jackson, as president commissioner among . the Indian tribes to the south and west of Arkansas. While employed in this service he made extensive circuits towards the Rocky Mountains. In one of these he was accompanied by Mr .. Washington Irving, who thus obtained the materials of his remarkable work upon our western prairies. At the end of two years, Mr. Ellsworth was called to Washington, and placed at the head of the Patent Office.
