RICHARD HENDERSON.

ALTHOUGH Daniel Boone may be considered the first therough explorer of the wilderness of Kentucky, and James Harrod built the first log-heuso in all that beautiful land, yet Colonel Richard Henderson must be regarded, politically, as the father of that commonwealth. He was a native of Virginia. He was born in Hanover county, on the 20th of April, 1735. His father emigrated to Granville county, North Carolina, in 1745, and being appointed sheriff of that district, Richard had an opportunity of learning many useful lessons in matters pertaining to law. He prepared himself for the legal profession, arose rapidly to the highest rank, accumulated a competent fortune, and, when the insurrectionary movements in that section of the county, known as the Regulator War,1 occurred, he was a judge of the superior court. As such, he was driven from the bench at Hillsborough, by the Regulators, in the Autumn of 1771, and the courts of justice, in that region, were closed. He was an ambitious and ostentatious man. By extensive speculations, at about this time, he had become somewhat embarrassed in pecuniary affairs, and had gained the ill-will of the common people. Bold, ardent, and adventurous, he resolved to go beyond the mountains, and there, in the beautiful country traversed by Boone, he commenced a scheme of land speculation, in 1774, more extensive than any known in the history of our country. He formed a company, of which he was chesen president, and by a treaty held at Wataga with the heads of the Cherokee nation, he purchased the whele land lying between the Cumberland river and mountains, and the Kentucky river, which comprised more than one-half of the present State ofKentucky. Henderson took possession of the country in the name of the company, in the Spring of 1775. Governor Martin, of North Carolina,proclaimed the purchase to be illegal. The legislature of Virginia did the same, but Judge Henderson paid no regard to their fulminations againsthim, and proceeded to establish a proprietary government, in imitation of the old colonics. Its capital was Boonesborough, and its title wasTransylvania. Under a large elm tree near Boone’s fort, the first legislature of the new State met on the 23d of May, 1775.- The session was opened with prayer by the Rev. John Lythe; and Colonel Henderson in his verbal “message” as president, expressed the very essence of republicangovernment, when he said, “If any doubts remain among you, with respect to the force and efficiency of whatever laws you now or hereafter make, be pleased to consider that all power is originally in the people; make it their interest, therefore, by impartial and beneficent laws, and you may be sure of their inclination to see them enforced.”

The State of Transylvania as an independent republic did not long exist, for Virginia and Carolina took efficient means to destroy it. The treaty with the Cherokees, and the purchase of their lands, were declared null. Yet they did not deprive the company of all advantages. North Carolinaand Virginia each granted to them two hundred theusand acres. Relinquishing all political claims, Judge Henderson opened a land office on thesite of Nashville, in 1779, for the sale of this legally-granted domain. The following Summer he returned to Granville county, and sought repose in the bosom of his family. Old difficulties were forgotten, for the great question of independence was then in process
