Albert Gallatin was born in Geneva, Switzer- 

 land, January 29, 1761, and died in Astoria, L. I., 

 August 12, 1849. He was descended from an 

 ancient patrician family of Geneva, whose name 

 had long been honorably connected with the 

 history of Switzerland. Young Albert had 

 been baptized by the name of Abraham Alfonse 

 Albert. In 1773 he was sent to a boarding 

 school and a year later entered the University 

 of Geneva, where he was graduated in 1779. He 

 sailed from L'Orient late in May, 1780, and 

 reached Boston on July 14. He entered Con- 

 gress on December 7, 1795, and continued a 

 member of that body until his appointment as 

 Secretary of the Treasury in 1801, which office 

 he held continuously until 1813. His services 

 were rewarded with the appointment of min- 

 ister to Franco in February, 1815; he entered 

 on the duties of this office in January, 1816. In 

 1826, at the solicitation of President Adams, he 

 accepted the appointment of envoy extraordi- 

 nary to Great Britain. On his return to the 

 United States he settled in New York City, 

 where, from 1831 to 1839, he was president of the 

 National Bank of New York. In 1842 he was
