of the Political and Commercial Register. In 1818-19, his brother officers of the Revolutionary Army appointed him their Solicitor to Congress, to obtain for them an equitable settlement of the half pay for life. He was a member of the Cincinnati, and delivered, at their request, several orations, which were printed. One, spoken July 4, 1786, was in commemoration of Independence, another was an eulo- gium on the character of Washington, two others were addressed to General La Fayette, when he visited Phila. After Major Jackson's death, both the Pennsylvania and the South Carolina Society of the Cincinnati passed a resolution to wear crape on the left arm for thirty days, as a tribute to his memory. He had the power of attaching and retaining the friendship of his early friends and associates during life, and his character was such as to justify their attachment to him. He was ever kind, faithful, indulgent, sincere and patriotic, and was highly regarded as a gentleman and as a scholar; his style was both fluent and vigorous, and he possessed extensive classical knowledge, d.
