DIED, In this village, on the 5th inst, at the residence of Mr. Merrill Pierce, Mr. CHARLES G. PIERCE of Hillsborough, N. H. son of the late Governor of that State, in the 26th year of his age (Utica Evangelical Magazine, Utica, New York, June 14, 1828).

Mournful dispensation—Mr. Charles G Pierce, son of Benjamin Pierce, late Governour of New Hampshire, left Hillsborough, in that state on the 16th of May last, in usual health, and arrived in this village on the 24th. Upon his arrival, he discovered symptons of a partial alienation of mind which continued for about a week when he became so entirely deranged as to render it necessary to confine him in the house of a friend. He had occasionaly a few lucid intervaIs till the aftenoon of the 5th instant, when he expired; he was in his 26th year. A number of the medical faculty pronounced his death to be an inflamation of the brain. It will be consoling to his relations and friends to learn, that in his sickness, the kindness of former acquaintances was not wannng to do all that could be done for comfort and relief.— Utica Intelligencer (The Albany Argus, Albany, New York, Saturday, June 21, 1828).
