His moral character is above reproach, and his strict integrity and amiable disposition has en deared him to all who have had t he good fortune to become acquainted with him.

UPPER AUGUSTA. July 10, 1852. The Licking County (Ohio) Branch Bank js siid to bve faileJ. 1 1: . ' In Northumberland, on the 17th ull., Mrs. HANNAH LESHER, aged about 25 .years. Suddenly, in Memphis, Tennessee, on the 9th of July last, Mr. JACOP S. MA US, from the effects ol a coup de lolid or stroke of the sun, formerly of Northumberland, a;ed 36 years. Mr. Maua was engaged in the gro cery business, and in health half an hour previous to his death. OBITUARY. Died, in Northumberland, on the 26th of Jn!v, Miss MARY LOUISA, eldest daughter of Henry II and Anna Burr, aged 29 years, 8 months and 9 days. In the death of this estimable young lady, the church of which she was a member, and lhe community in which she li vs J have suf fered no ordinary loss. Naturally of a mild and amiable disposition, which was so puri fied and sanctified by the religion she profes sed, that in her the christian graces shone forth so clear and beautiful as to render her to the hearts of each member of her family, lo her pastor, and lo every individual in the community where her lot was cast Her last brief illness was born with true cliiistian resignation, and though we are not permitted, owing to the nature of tho disease, lo record her dying testimony, we have that which is far better her living. While her sun shone with merridian brightness, she publicly and solemnly renounced the sinful pleasures of this woild, and choose lhe Lord God te. bo her friend and portion for time and eternity. To those who knew her well, we need not speak of the many christian virtues which cluttered around her character, and adorned her religious profession. Her past life was suificicnt to convince all lhat when her "mas ter called," she was ready to "follow Him," leaving his service on earth, to engage in no bler service in heaven; that our irreparable lo.s was her eternal pain that for her to be ! absent from tho body was lo be present with j ,nnl. How forcibly ate we reminded by this sudden death in our niiilM, thai our stay on earth is but for a day, "The buttle of our Life ia brief, The alarm tlie struggle the relief Then sleep we side by siilc."
