Catalogue of Nebulfe.—A valuable work, eentniving all of Sir W. Herschel's nebu lzL in number) with other catalogues, and comparisons between them, has been published by M. Auwers. The want of such a work has long been felt by such ob servers as were engaged in searching for comets, as no complete catalogue existed previously : Slar Mapa.—The magnificent catalogue and star maps of Professor Argelander are row completed—the number of stars reg keyed amounting to 324,198 altokether, which are visible in the Northern hemis phere with a telescope of 4i foot focus. The preparation of this great work bas ta ken upwards of seven years, in which there were 635 clear nights, arid the number of observations amounted to more than a mil lioe. The month of October was found to be best adapted for obeervations in the cli mate of Bonn, Germany. Gas Motors.—Largo numbers of gas en gines are now employed for various purpo ses in Paris. At the Grand Hotel, one iuotor supplies all the water from cellar to attic; another raises the ,dishes from the basement to . the fourth story; another turn.; the machine for breaking ice • anoth er raises to the respective stories the trav elers, comfortably seated in a car for this perpendicular voyage; another raises the baggage. All this is effected without noise, fire, or smoke. An electric spark inflames the gas and drives the piston. Distance of the Earth from the SUM-- Professor Airy, of the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, states that, from observation of the planet Mars compared with other obser vations made in Australia, a value of the solar parallax has been obtained, "exceed ing the received value by about the 1.24 th part." This shows the earth to - be nearer the sun by several millions of miles than has been supposed;` and independent inves tigations made of late, by other astrono mers, have led to the same result. Mrius.—Prof. Felton, of Harvard . Col lege, reported in 1861 that a new test at the Observatory had - confirmed the exist ence of a disturbing body in the immediate vicinity of Sirius; and on the 31stlof Janu nary, 1862, Mr. Alvan Clark, of Cam bridge, discovered a star which had never been seen before by mortal eye, and which is now supposed by astronomers fo be the bodythat occasioned the perturbations of Skins. Since that time Mr. Goldschmidt has announced to the Academy of Science at Paris the discovery, of several stars in the neighborhood of Sirius. If these asserted discoveries prove a reality, it is possible that Sirius is surrounded by a system of planets which revolve around him, enlight ened, warmed and beautified by his beams. If it is demonstrated that the brightest of the fixed stars is a sun, it will go far to es tablish the sublime theory that the fixed stars are centres of solar systems similar to our awn.

The War.—During the past week there has been little intelligence of iet t.rest from the Army of the rotoronc. Changes of position nave been made, end occasional skirmishing has taken place on come portions of the lines, but, without, WV general engagement. A few batteries have exchanged shots, and the *sharp shooters on emelt side have seized every opportunity for practising their deadly art. "Tudor the flag of truce araugement, the dead and wounded between the two liner have all been brought off the The latest lewd from the army is to the effect that the rnil 1..1 which had been completed from the Whit , I 1,',1-7 to within a mile or two of the front, I.n , 1, ;”rti up again, the rails and ties brought. luck to White' House, and placed on barges. • Thicimegarded lean indication of a change of base tiithe Imes river.

Gen. Hunter has effected a junction with Generals Crooks and Averill. Our forces had possession of Staunton, and were engaged in burning.ties and bending rail; east awl west. All government and railroad buildings have been burned at Staunton. Another rebel raid into Kentucky has taken plane, under the leadership of the notorious Mor gan. The accounts are too confused as yet to furnish a clear and connected statement of the invasion. Morgan is reported to have entered Kentucky via Whitesboro' with 2,600 or 3,000 men. This force would seem to have divided into detachments for the purpose of attacking various places simultaneously. On Wednesday, June 8, one portion of the rebel cavalry, about 700 in number, entered Paris without resistance. Other detachments were reported near-Falmouth and Williamstown, about thirty miles from Cin cinnati; Still others at Georgetown, Cynthiana, Crab Orchard, Stanford, and near Lexington. On Friday, June 10, Gen. Burbridge, com manding in Kentucky, came upon Morgan at Mt. Sterling, and defeated him. Morgan, by steal ing fresh horses, was able to reach Lexington by 2A. M., Saturday. Our forces held the forts and the rebels did but little damage, leaving at 7 A. M. for Cynthiana, where, with a force esti mated at 3,000, he attacked the 168th and 171st Ohio, under Gen. Hobson. A severe,fight ensued which resulted in the surrender of Hobson, with about 1,200 men, on condition!' that his men , should be immediately p yoled. . The rebels hav ing set fire to a stable, over twenty buildings in the busines part of the town were consumed. At daylight the next morning, Sunday, June 12, Gen. Burbridge surprised the rebels whilst at breakfast. The fight raged for an hour, when the rebels gave way, and retreated precipitately, .closely pursued by Burbridge. The rohel loss is stated at 800 killed and wounded, and 400 pris oners. A party of rebels, numbering about 1.200 men, attacked Frankfort on Friday evening, June 10. The fight was kept up at intervals through the night, and was renewed on Saturday, continuing until 4P. M. Two demands were made for the surrender of the fort, both of which were refused by Col. Monroe, commanding. The rebels final ly desisted from the attack, and moved eastward on Saturday evening. The fort was garrisoned by only 150 Federals, of *hem only 12 were sol diers. Six Federals were wounded. At the latest accounts; 'Morgan's force had sep arated into squads, and in a demoralized condi tion was endeavoring to effect its escape out of the State. From Gen. Sherman's oommand, our ,intelli gence is but meagre. On June 7be dispatches: " I have been to Allatoona Pass, and find it very admirable for our purpose. It is the gate through the last or mast Eastern spur of the Alleghenies: It now becomes as useful to us as it was to the enemy, being easily defended from either direction. The roads hence from Ack worth into Georgia are large and good, and the country more open." The dispatch further states that " the enemy is not in our immediate front, but his signals are seen at Lost Mountain and Kenesaw." On June 10, he dispatches that on-Thursday, June 9,- our cavalry had developed the position of the enemy in a line along the hills from Ken esaw to Lost Mountain, and our troops were then marching by the roads to Kenesaw. The latest fintelligince from Gen. Sherman is dated at his headquarters, Big Shanty, Georgia, Sunday, June 12, to the effect that our lines are within four or five hundred yards of the enemy, but no fighting yet. • • A battle occurred on Monday, June 6, near Columbia, Ark. The rebels are said to have had 3,000 men and some artillery engaged. About nine o'olook in the morning, the advance of the Union force under Gen. Smith met two regi ments Of the enemy on the banks of the Bayou. After a short engagement, the rebels fell back to a second position on the Bayou, leaving an open field between the lines. A brisk artillery fire was then commenced by both parties. • In a few minutes, however, our forces desisted from using their guns and advanced upon the enemy, forcing them to retreat. Our loss was about twenty killed and seventy wounded; the rebel loss is about the same. The rebels are said to have been commanded by Gen. Marmadnke. From Vicksburg, Gen. Canby reports that an attempt had been made by the rebels to cross the Atchafalaya, but the effort was not success ful. LATEST.—The latest advices from Gen, Grant are dated . Monday, June 15, 8 A. M. " The movement was in successful progress." This is understood to refer to the change of base from the Pamunkey to James River. A dispatch to the N. Y. World, states positively that this change has been effected, and that Fort Darling had been invested, to open the way for the gun boats. Much anxiety was felt to hear from Sher idan's raid, as it was a long and important one. The Richmond papers express their conviction that Grant, being unable to force the passage of the Chickahominy, .was about to transfer his ar my to the South side of the James. From Kentucky, am Burbridge officially re ports Morgan completely routed„with a loss of SOO killed, SOO wounded, 400 captured, over 1000 horses taken, the rebels scattered everywhere, throwing away their arms, out of ammunition, and completely demoralized. Col. Garrard had -overtaken one squad of 600, and badly whipped them. The two paroled Ohio regiments had ar rived at Cincinnati. General.—The National Union Convention, in session at Baltimore, on Wednesday, June unanimously nominated President Lincoln for reelection, and Governor Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee, for the Vice Pre sideney. The reso lutions adopted by the Convention, (and • oom monly termed its "platform "), embrace, 1. The maintenance of the Union in its integrity : 2. No terms of peace except the unconditional sur render of the rebels: 8. The extirpation of Sla very, and its perpetual probibition by an amend ment to the Constitution : 4, Thanks to the army and navy ; and the duty of providing for the support of those disabled in the service: 6. En dorsement of the policy of the Administration : 6. The necessity for harmony in the National councils: 7. Prompt redress for rebel violations of the laws of war: 8. The encouragement of foreign immigration : 9. The speedy construction of the railroad to the Pacific: 10. The National faith pledged for the redemption of the public debt; the consequent necessily for rigid econ omy and vigorous taxation : 11. Approval of the Monroe Doctrine. These resolutions were adopt ed by acclamation. On Wednesday evening, June 8, about 10 o'olook, the new and elegant steamer Berkshire, on her way from Hudson to New-York, when a few miles below Rondout, took fire, and in a few moments was consumed to the water's edge. She was run ashore as soon as possible, but out of 120 passengers 40 were lost. On Friday, June 8, at 2 A. M., the United States steamer Waterteitch was surprised and cap tured in Ossabaw Sound, Georgia, by eight armed boats sent out from the rebel Fort McAl ister. But one of crew, a negro, escaped by jumping overboard and swimming ashore. The forged proclamation, regarding the effects of which abroad so many apprehensions were ex pressed, was taken out by the Scotia, which reaohed Liverpool, May 27.. The telegraphic summaries of the news, forwarded to the press in advance of the arrival of the mails, announced that such a document had appeared, and that it was a forgery, so that the hoax, after all, is like ly to do less harm than it was feared It might. The 180th Ohio, (100 day troops) having in its ranks lawyers, clergymen, and others of the best men in the State, on Saturday voted unani mously to go to the front and light. They then marched to the White House and had an inter view with the President, who addressed them, thanking them for their prompt resolution and Raying, "wherever you go, I know you W ill do your best." There are indications that all the railroads by which Riohmond is supplied will soon be ren dered useless. The Raleigh Confederate says: Six thousand Federal prisoners, captured in the recent battles in Virginia, have passed through Danville on their way to the rebel dungeons in the South. - During the month of May there were pealed at the Fourth Auditor's office twenty-mkt hundred and twenty-eight claims for prize money, amount ing to nearly half a million dollars. New lists for distribution, amounting to $772,400, were received during Ihe . same time. Gen. Buell having been mustered out of the velunteer service for refusing to accept a com• mand under Major-Gen. Canby, has now resigned his Celonelcy in the regular army. It is said that many of the light draft monitors now in course of construction at Boston, will not float when their stores and crew are on board; also that another was laid aground after she was launched to prevent her sinking, and that anoth er was not more than three inches out of water. Commodore Gregory, it is understood, will ex amine into the matter to see if anything can be done to remedy these miscalculations. The official bulletins of Secretary Stanton have supplied a want which has been often felt here tofore, when the country was tortured with con flicting reports. The reliable character of these official announcements, commendable also . for their dietinctncii and brevity, bee had a tendon- PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---WEDNESDAY, JUNE 15, 1864. ay to allay the public excitement, often heretofore rendered mare feverish by suspense. The destruction which the war has made on horses and mules iu the West is tremendous. It would seem as if the use of artillery, baggage wagons and cavalry Must be suspended after a while for want of animals. Foreign,—The Dano-German Conterence met on the 2d of June, but nothing definite was ar rived at. A proposal was made and accepted for the prolongation of the armistice fifteen days longer. The Conference will meet again, June 15th. Fears gain ground that hostilities will re commence between the Danes and Germans. It is represented "that public feeling energetically demands the resumption of hostilities the pres ent season, it being especially favorable to the Danes, while delay will neutralize the Danes' na val strength. The Memorial D4.)lomatigue says the probable result of negotiations will be, that Holstein and Southern Schleswig will he detached from Den mark, being united to Germany. Northern Schleswig is perpetually with Denmark. The Count De Paris, grandson of Louis Phil ippe, late King of the French, was married to Isabella of Spain, at Kingston, on the 30th of May. Mr. Howatt, ono of the directors of the Inter national Telegraph Company, has been giving explanations at Liverpool, of the design of that Company to construct a telegraph to America, starting from Brest via the Azores and the French Islands. A concession had been obtained &pre the, French Government in favor of the eiifer prise. A capital of half a million sterling is re quired. The Persian Gulf cable has been laid through out. It is nine hundred miles in length, and works admirably. The Irish papers continue to repert an exten sive emigration from Ireland to the United: States. No fewer than three hundred and persona, for instance, have kft Sligo, that number includ ing forty from Lord Palinerston's estates. His lordship; it ie said, provided for the passage and outfit of these forty persons. Five young Persian gentlemen have arrived ip England to be eductfted at the expense of their government under the care of Mithmoud Khan, the Persian minister. The Australasian Wesleyan Conference, M. E., comprises 163 ministers, and embraces within Its bounds Australia, Tasmania, the Friendly and Fiji islands, and other islands recently the abode of cannibals. The 10th- annual session of the Conference was recently held at Melbourne, in a ohuroh which was erected at a cost of $90,000. The English Wesleyan Jubilee Fund now amounts to $780,000, and before the And of the year will probably reach a million. I,orat Removal of Musio Warerooms,--1 - 1. Kleher & Brother, who acquired such an enviable repu tation as dealers in musio and musical instrument. on Coth Street, have removed to rooms much better suited to their large and constantly increasing bus iness. Their present locality is 122 Wood Street, near. Fifth. The rooms 'have been prepared ex clusively for this kind of buisness. '`The lower is a very large room, admirably adapted for the purposes of a salesroom. The second floor is where a full supply of the finest pianos is always on hand. The third floor is occupied by an apartment for musical instruction and plactice, and by a room for melodeons, harmoniums, and musical instruments in general. --The fourth floor is used for repairing instruments. These rooms have high ceilings, and are well lighted and well ventilated. The entire establishment Is well worth the inspection and patronage of the multitudes of our readers who take an interest in every thing pertaining to, musical art. Messrs. Sieber have always for sale the choic est and latest music, and•alt the different kinds of musical instruments. Among their large stock may be found' the celebrated Melodeons and Harmoniums of Carhart, the inventor ?of these instruments ; the greatly admired Pianos of Callenberg sr Gabler, of New-York, and of Miller & Co., of Boeton. And they are the sole agents, in this city, for the sale of the renowned Steinway Pianos, whose superierityls,universal ly aoknowledged—even in - Europe.- The Stein way piano marks an era -in musical progress. The New-York Times says: "Eleven years ago, the Steinways made their first piano. For two or three years past they have been making five grand and forty square pianos a week, besides occasional upright or boudoir instruments. Yet this enormous average of about two thousand and four hundred pianos a year does not repre sent the demand forced upon them, by one-half. It is simply impossible to supply a greater nuin ber of instruments than they do, for the sole reason that good artisans are not as plenty as blackberries. I , In their immense factory on Fourth Avenue and to which they have lately added a new wing about the size of City Hall,- are. employed over four hundred men at all times, and eight hun dred pianos are constantly in process , of manu facture. Present them with four hundred extra hands, and they can double their sales, and per- , hap' appease, in some measure, an impatient arpy of would-be customers. As a matter of credit to the artistic skill and :business tact of this distinpished firm, it is just to add that their example in affording a peculiarly fine instru ment, as well as their energy in directing their business, and their zeal in promoting :In more ways than one the interests of art, .certainly ha've contributed much toward the rapid and healthy propagation - of - musical science in this land. They have been planters,' as well as reap. era, and deserve their prosperity the more. "Undeniably, the honorable competition of the Steinways and their speedy riseAttipelled other and old-established makers to timely exer tions, lest the wind Should be 'taken wholly out of their 'mils, and hence came profit to the con sumers of harmony and increased Nati& to the fame of home-made pianos." The popularity of this piano with music teach ers and the best performers, is sufficient proof of its wonderful superiority. It may also be added that Mr. Kleber has been entrusted with the selection bf more pianos for persons purchasing than any other man now in Pittsburgh or its vicinity. This is no small compliment to his skiff and sound judgment. Parties desiring to purchase any thing in the way of music og musipal instruments, will find every attention given them by calling at H.

She loaves a husband and six children—the eldest child 11 years old and the . youngest seven days—together with a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn their loss.. But we mourn not as those who have no hope. DIED—At the residence of his father, Wil liam Byers, in Summit Tp., Butler County, Pa., of consumption, on the 26th of April, WILLIAM STUART BYERS, about 18 years of age. No one acquainted with the Christian deport ment of this young man, and his religious' con versation on his sick bed, can doubt that he has gone to a better world.

The former was a lovely young Christian who died in the faith, and hope, and peace of the Gospel; the latter a mother in Israel, in, the 85th year of her age. She had been for sev enty years a member of the Church, and for the last sixty a member of the Presbyterian church of Plaingrove. They were pleasant and lovely in their lives, and in their death they were not divided. DIED--At ileathht Delight, the old homestead of his ancestors, in Allegheny County, Pa , ALEXANDER NEGLEY, in the 46th year of his He had received a fine classical education, and although of modest and retiring manners, he was an able, energetio, and successful business man. Cut off in the prime of life and useful ness, he leaves a widow to mourn the loss of an affectionate husband; and two young children lose a father's watchful care; ,and the commu nity is deprived of one of its most liberal, pub lics spirited, and worthy members. The deceased was of generous disposition; true and reliable in his friendships; kind and obliging to his neighbors; a sincere Christian and exemplary, church member. Through life he was respected; and in death is regretted by a very large circle of acquaintances. DIED—Of typhoid fever, May 2d, in. Clarks ville, lowa, Prof. J. M. COULTER. of the Clarksville Institute, son of J. P. and IL'Coul ter, of Fredericktown, Ohio, in the 25th year of his age. The deceased was the Belief Christian parents, a child of the covenant, and the subject of many prayers. He grew up under the influences of religion. He entered Jefferson College in the Spring of 1854, aud - pursuedlis education main ly at that institution. Early in the year 1857 he necame the subject of renewing grace, and united with the Presbyterian church of Freder icktown, Ohio. It was the desire of his parents that their eon should enter the ministry, but constitutional diffidence led him to choose an other employment. After leaving College he engaged in teaching—first in. the institution at Maysville, and afterward at Martinsburg, Ohio. In the Fall of 1868 he became a Professor in the Clarksville Institute, whence he was called to cease earthly duties 'and engage in the activities of heaven. His disease soon affected his mind Ito much that he gave but little expression of his thoughts of death ; but at ,a moment of calm ness ho was told that he must•die, when, he ex pressed the trust that he was prepared. G. . . DIED—At her residence, in Salem Townsbip, Westmoreland County, Pa., on the 20th of May, 1864, Miss MARGARET KEANE, in the 60th year of her age. Miss Keane made a profession of religion about forty years ago, and continued in tbe.com mullion. of the same church, Congruity, until the day of her death, maintaining a consistent walk, and giving evidence of love to the Lord Jesus Christ and hie Church. Her disease, paralysis, rendered her incapable of communicating with friends in a few minutes after she was attaolted. Though she survived nearly four days, she was for the greater part of the time unconscious, and could therefore give no other evidence of-prepa ration for death than that"- which her previous life furnishes. But in that, surviving friends may find much to comfort them. The sudden ness of the call says to them, and to all others, Be ye also ready." S. M. F.

He was twice wounded, but never left his post=—where he was always found *—antl fell dead there, shot through the head. His sorrowing comrades all testify to his noble qualities as a soldier. This stroke falls heavily on his bereaved parents and sisters, but they sorrow not without hope, He was a beloved son and brother; a great lover of home. He was a strict observer of God's laws—always at the public sanctuary and prayer meetings. He 'wires - one brother in the army, and one a prii oner, captured at Plymouth, N. C. DIED—Of diptheria, May 4th, 1864, at the age of 6 years, and 10 months, SARAH ELLEN; only daughter of Matthew and Elizabeth Byers, of Laurel Hill, Fayette County, Pa. Her disease, front the first, baffled every med ical effort to mitigate or remove it. At a very early period she evinced unwonted interest on the subject of religion, which was deepened by the efforts of her pious parents to, unfold to, her her lost condition and point her to the only Saviour. She took great delight in reading and hearing the spries of the Bible; the books of the Sabbath 'School; the ehildien's department in the Banner and United Presbyterian—above all, the story of the cross. Such was her love for truth, that her mother never knew her to pre varicate or deceive. When asked whom she loved most, she would instantly reply, " God, and ma and pa.; In sler) , thing, her own will bowed at once to that of her mother. - Almost entirely under maternal tuition, she could read well, and committed to memory the Shorter Catechism as far as the Sixth Commandment. In addition to the . Lord's Prayer and child's prayer, on going to bed, she visited the closet twice every day, and upon her knees, in her own sim ple language, would implore salvation for her own Soul, her parents, her brother in the army, little Irsother at home, and other dear friends. Being asked if she felt willing to die, she an swered,. " I would like to live, if it were the Lord's will; but if he thinks it best I. shbuld not live, I think I ant willing to die." To the,ques 7 Lion, " Ella, do you love Jesus l" she quickly re plied, "0 yes, papa, Ido love Jesus." "Why do you love him ?" " Because he died for me." Her extreme prostration prevented her from convers ing much, but she gave evidence of being much engaged in prayer for herself and others. The night before her death, and just before washing out her throat, she seemed`very anxious to 'be patient and resigned under the painful opera tion, and said, "Papa, pray for me ;" which being done, she made the same request of her mother and aunt, who told her they did pray for her. She insisted they should pray so that she could hear, which being done, she said, "It does me good to pray ; it seems as if God was with me; you can now attend to my throat; I think God will help me to bear it." A few mo ments before she expired, she was known to be fervently engaged in prayer for -.herself and parents. Thus passed this loved one from the fond embraces of affectionate parents to the bosom of the Great . Shepherd, who said, "Suffer little children to come unto me," &o. What an argument is here furnished for parental fidelity in the religious training of children! J. S. DIED—May 6th, 1864, Mr. SAMUEL PER RINE, Co. 1,63 d Reg!t. P. V., aged 23 years, son of Mr. Joseph Perkins, of Versailles Tp., Alle gheny County, Pa. Re fell, mortally wounded, in the battle of the wilderness, and. died in an hour and a half after being borne from the field. The deceased was a child of the covenant, having been baptized in infancy by Rev. James Graham. He was a dutiful son and an affec tionate brother. He united himself with the. First Presbyterian church of lii.' - Reesport, June Ist, 1861. Ho delighted in the services of the sanctuary, and consoientiously performed every Christian duty. ' He entered upon military service in Septem ber, 1861. In thus becoming a soldier in the service of his country, he never forgot, as alas too many have done, that be was also "a sol dier of the cross, a follower of the Latab." He was all his life a consistent, moral, and strictly temperate young man. Among the many and strong temptations of tho army, he was enabled by the grace of God to resist the vices incident to military life. lie resolutely stood up for Jesus under all circumstances. When urged to drink by officers high in com mand, he could and did say, " No." One of his messmates, since his death writes of him that " hie consistent walk and godly conversation showed him to be a true child of Jesus. All who knew him, loved him. Parents, brothers. and sister, with others, mourn for him,* but not without a good hope. He was a ,young man of lovely disposition and irreproachable character; cheerful, generous and brava; endearing him self not only to his companions in arms, but to all who came within his influence. Through the many trials and strong temptations incident to a soldier's life, he endeavored to live in earn est and constant preparation for death, Pure and noble spirit, rest in peace in that happy land where. no trumpet calls to arms, and no gleaming swords are ready to be bathed in blood." His letters also to hie pastor and friends breathed the spirit of the true Christian. His chaplain, Rev. Dr. J. J. Marks, always found him faithful to his •God, and ready for every good work. He was never ashamed of Jesus. When at home on furlough, during the absence of his father, he attended to family worship, and also when his father was at home, when he requested him.. Ho constantly attended religious meetings in the camp, and in prayer meetings his voice was heard in prayer ' as well as in praise. He took the Banner all the time he was in the service. He would not do without it. During the seven days' battle under Gen. M'Clellan be fore Richmond, he was sick in the hospital, and was taken prisoner. He was soon paroled, and spent four months at Annapolis, bid. He was wounded in the arm in the battle of Chancel lorsville, May 3d, 1863. His brother Thomas, of the 105th Reg't P. V., was near him when he 'fell, and was with him when lie died, and re ceived from his lips his last words, "God's will be done; I am ready and willing to die." Thus passed away a patriot Christian, from that " Wilderness" battle field, baptized. with the blood of so many of America's noblest and best sons, to his 'home in the heavens. DIED—On .New Year's morning of 1864, at her home in Minden, Westmoreland Co., Pa., Mrs. RACHEL BOYD, second daughter of Wil liam and Elizabeth Reynolds, aged 49 years. Though for several years previous to her •de cease in somewhat delicate health, the subject of this notice was called after a brief illness, last ing but a few days, from the duties and pleasures of life to the rewards of - eternity. In her early yearisho connected herself with the Church of Christ, and during her whole life adorned the doc trine of Godlier Saviour by a walk and conversa tion which extorted admiration even from the ene mies of religion. Gifted with strong and clear judgment, andtlessed with great conscientious ness she recognized always the path of duty, and walked with a steady and unwavering step whithersoever it led. , liar generous disposition, her genial manner, expressive of the warmth and purity of her affections, made her a universal favorite among her companions and schoolmates in her earlier years, and an object of ardent and steady friendship through her whole life. Of her relations in life, as a daughter,-eister and wife, it is no exaggeration to say, that she fully recognized the solemn. responsibilities which grew out of them, and discharged their sacred duties in such 'a spirit of self-sacrifice, charity and love as made all who knew her say, n done, good and faithful servant." The strong attaohments which she secured to herself in life, and the profound sense of bereaveinent in her desolate and - darkened home which remains from her death, are 'the best testimonials to her Christian faithfulness in these relations. Her death was a fitting consummation 'to this consistent life_-a harmonious and beautiful close to the ohequered scenes and often painful vicissitudes, of her' existence upon earth. To the end her intellect was unclouded, and her faith deepened into an assurance that took away the sting of death and robbed the grave of its. victory. To her sister, who had jcst repeated. some of the precious words of the Saviour, re corded in the 14th chapter of John, such as, "Let not your heart be troubled;" "I will not leave you comfortless ;" -" In my Father's house are many mansions; 'I go to prepare a place for you;" she responded, "Yes, I am going home—going to heaven to meet the dear ones who have gone before. At another time she uttered, with an impressiveness and an emphasis which marked the strength of her faith and the perfection of her love•which had cast out all fear,"My Jeans and my God ;" and again, "Jesus s come for me; he has accepted me ; he will take me home to. meet all the be loved who have gone before—father, mother, Hannah, and Willie, sweet little Willie." But a few moments before her death she laid her hands calmly by her side and said, " Now let me die." • How blessed an example is such a life! How sweet a recollection for all who loved her is such a death. And often, as we linger by her grave and drop our tears, and desk it with the ever greens and flowers that symbolize our immortal hope, we 'shall murmur in gratitude to God, the favorite couplet of her favorite hymn: " Asleep in' Jesus ! blessed sleep. From which none ever wake to weep." Id.
