OBITUARY.
Died May 7th, at the residence of her bro
Iher. near ' Plaitifiel.l. Cumberland county,
MARGARET T. GILLILEN, aged 23 yeats.
"Joy for tries happy friend ! Thy lark has part
The rough aca'a foam !
Now lh iteep yearnings of Ihy soul are Milled
Ituin ! home ! thy peace ia wm, thy heart if filled,
Thon art gone home !" IIemam.
Many in this little community have not for
gotten and will remember notf, with mourn
tul interest, the fair, and genlle girl, whose
name heads this brief notice for she is
dead and sad hearts are sorrowing over the
mysterious Providence, which has left an
earthly home so mournfully desolate !
Bui a few short yeais ago she came
amongst lis a stranger, winning our admira
tion, and affection, not only by her personal
loveliness but by the happy joyousness of a
guileless, child-like nature, and the more no
bl", and enduring qualities of hear!, and
mind which every day seemed more fully to
dvlope. She was the light of every circle
ii which she moved carry ina sunshine with
her presence for it was ever on her brow,
welling up from the depths of a happy heart !
Months passed on she came again how
changed ! Disease had began it work the
bloom was fading from her cheeks, and the
light vanishing from her eye. The smile of
peculiar sweetness (that will evr live in the
memory of thoi-e who loved her,) was still
there, but laughing, joyous girlhood was
transformed into thoughtful womanhood with
deep, serious views of life, and her own re-
sponsibilily to the great Being, who had pla
ced her an aclor, in life's scenes. We knew
the was ill but we fondly hoped, and be
lieved that when spring would come asain,
with its sunny air, and its buds, and blos
soms, health's roses would bud and bloom
once more on that pale cheek and she, live
many coming years to gladden the hearts
that loved her. Spring came but she fa
ded with its first warm breath, and its early,
fragrant blossoms have fallen upon her grave.
She has gone to God. Mysterious though it
it to us, for her it is a blessed change. Ta
ken in her early womanhood, frorr) the trials,
nd cares, which are incident to all, and
which are so peculiarly woman's lot to her
vternal home, where the can never again
know weariness, or sorrow ! Writes one (who
was with her when I tie Inst struggle came
with death,) "she died rejoicing, charging
me not to mourn for her. She knew she
Was making a happy exchange and her last
message to her distant fiiends was prepaie
Tor your dying hour and meet me in Heaven "
Brief record of a young life! for she is
Tmmbered with the angels now ! tee mourn
our Inst ! and by one who knew and loved
het be this pasting tribute is inscribed to
tier memory!

when the remedy ia so easy to obtain this is

rods in use in this or any other country for the

This remedy is offered to the community with

and so numerous tht cases of its cures, that al
most every section of the country abounds in
persons, publicly known, wild have been restored
from alarming and even desperate diseases of the
lungs, by its use. When once tribd, its superi
ority over every other medicine cf Its kihtl, is too
apparent to escape observation, and whert its vir
tues arc known, the public no longer hesitate
what antidote to employ for the distressing and
dangerous affections of the pulmonary organs,
which are incident to our cliinata, And Hot only
in the formidable attacks upon tho lung, hut fur
the milder varieties of Colds, Corsns, Hoarsk
ncss, Ac, and for Ciiilukkn it is the plcassnt
est and safest medicine that can be obtained. No
family should be without it, and those who have
used it, never will.
Read tho opinion of the following Gentleman,
who will be recognized in the various sections of
country where they are located each and nil as
merchants uf the first class and of the highest
character as the oldest and most extensive
