these, as with all the other books in his
Valuable collection, he had famillariied him

men of the country a more thoroughly
learned theological scholar than Jpax Jones,
.and very few Divines were his superiors in
their own class of studies, or have written
upon them with more copious learning.
Yet, with all this vast erudition, he was
wholly free from intellectual pride, and avoid
ed all netoriety. Although affable and com
municative, he never obtruded an opinion, or
sought to control the opinion of others. lie

mien, never making nor allowing himself to
be drawn Into any useless exhibition of his
learning, and many, even of his friends, may
now begin to ascertain, for the first' time, the
extent of his acquirements. He had passed
through trials, which he had improved as provi
dential lessons, and he arrived at the conclu
sion that the sum of life was to be tois'e and to
do good.
Per many years the Judge had been ruling
elder in the Second Presbyterian Church of
this city; and assiduous in the discharge of
the duties which that position devolved upon
him. His Christian profession was so in
wrought Into the structure of his whole life
as to become incorporated with him as a
part of himself. He was a constant illus
tration of a just man; for his impulses to
the True and the Good had become habitual,
and had made his thoughts, and words, and
acts a perpetual lesson of piety. It is a me
lancholy reflection upon human greatness,
even in its purest forms, to see so much learn
ing and virtue passing away, and the gathered
stores of a lifetime perishing thus from among
men : we may only hope that the influence of
tr: illustrious example may stimulate others to
:thieve like noble ends by like noble means,
so that the memory of the departed may be•

The Lnte Judge Joel Jones
BY EIS LAST STUDENT.
(For The Press,]
Towards the eloseof the Bummer the Judge began
to fail ; although his morning salutation was etill
warm with sincerity, it had lost its liveliness. His
atop, so regular and slow with ago, appeared more
feeble, and denoted a physical prostration. An
afternoon siesta had become more frequent and ne•
oessary, though his energetic attentions corre
sponded to the requirements of his legal obliga
tions and duties. But autumn came, and with it
increased infirmities. His sedentary habits, now
a part of his nature from a long continuance, and
his Indifference to bodily exercise, soon began to
exhibit a visible and disastrous effect. At times
becoming more impactions of this, he would, from
the momentary excitement of self-Imposed refekma
tion, sock the open country, upon a horee or In a
carriage.
Ills resolve was pleasantly invited and assisted
by those glorious autumnal days which gemmed
this thoughtful period of the year. The shhny
breezes of the South whispered refaVenation to his
sanguine wishes, and in the golden flood of light,
and beneath the clear blue canopy of Heaven, he
doubtless dreamed of health.
But, ales! a dream it proved to be; for cold
and nipping days, stern sentinels Of winter, now
intervened and dissipated hope. With confine
ment his dyspepsia olden iaorened, and food be
came unpleasant to hie eight, while nervous at
tacks delves - sad his spirits and cast a gloom upon
his family. Skilful phys'otans, however, gradually
removed the symptoms of this disorder, to find
them, unfortunately, usurped by a more dangerous
messenger of death. The liver, Ltoeased in a high
degree, now claimed the full, yet ineffectual, at
tention of the dpeters. Anodynes wore given on
alternate nigh 4 to ease the pain, Which, on the
other nights, made hiin roll over the chamber-floor
in paroxysms of agony. His strength now failed,
and the opeoille gravity of the wasted parts of the
body indicated a lessening vitality.
As his pulse gradually diminished, he called the
family to the bedside, and while his excellent wife
raieed him, he spoke In low and solemn tones;
and while their bowed heads and heart laments.
Cons evidenced such greet lose In the approaching
dissolution, the declining sun gently entered the
apartment, and 111 up the countenance of the Judge
with a glorious and Divine light. He lingered a
little while, and then passed away, in peace with
mankind and holy trust in his Maker.
Worldly affairs no longer engross his attention ;
the papers of each ease are silently tied up, to be
argued by another; the full knowledge of the law
accumulated through the labor of a half century is
now valueless : Justin has shed a tear ! As a good
Olken, a true friend, an upright judge, and a pub
lic: man of integrity, he is widely recognised and
lamented: but these splendid qualities are fur
eclipsed by his greet private morality, his purity
and goodness of spirit, and a Christian's exercise
of the teachings of the Saviour. These were the
everlasting riches whose possession softened the
couch of pain and tempered the grief of the mourn
ers. He departed in deep winter—that portion of
the year in which a poet would long to die; when
fettered Nature becomes no eloquent in profound
silence, and appears so typical of man and future
blessedness. For afterward there (wreath a spring,
where the flowers of faith shall bloom foiever in a
brighter land, and where the voice of the Gardener
will be the singing of birds and the muslo of Para

There lea cook ancl•bull story afloat, to the effect
that the Republicans In the Legislature intend to an.
ticipate this winter the election of a Ilnited States
fienator in place of poor Bigler. It originated in the
canard of a Harrisburg correspondent of a Pittsburg
paper, but which wee seriously endorsed by the editor.
and republished here by the Democratic organ as not
improbable. The reason urged by the writer for tee
Republicans changing the time is the fear that they
w not have the Legislature In Ital. This Is n. violent
supposition, to say the least. For two years they have
had en overwhelming majority. and next year by no
possible political blunder can they fail to have teen than
twenty-two nut of the thirty-three Senators, which will
eutfloinntly large to oyerbalance any majority that
