Address, post-paid, L. A. GODET. 323 Chestnut St.. Phila. All's well, that ends well.— For years, and indeed ever since the first settlement of our town, it has been thought almost as impossible to get, water on '' Gravel Hill"—geographically so-called—by digging, as to get it in the middle of the desert of 3a harah. An attempt to do so, we believe, was once made by Major Slocum, one of the first settlers, but from the loose and gravelly nature of the soil through which he had to dig and the difficulties he experi enced in curbing, to keep it out, the project proved a failure. The idea of getting water from wells, on Gravel Hill, from that day to this, has been consid ered visionary. Mr. James Yahng, a resident o that parched and thirsty region, took a different view of the matter; and like the immortal Sam Patch —or somebody else—thought "some things could be done as well as others." -With a man of his energy and will, to think, is lo act. He commenced dig ging, and by a plan of curbing, peculiarly his own. descendod rapidly into the bosom of his mother earth. At a depth of upwards of forty feet, he struck a stratum of quick sand with water. As this furnish ed only a very insecure foundation for a wall, he de termined to go through it, which he did, by means of a slidiag curb. His well is now about fifty feet in depth, and contains six or eight feet of good pure water. His neighbors who deemed his project a foolish and unprofitable one, are now more free to help him drink his water, than they were to help him dig his well. • Married. STK\ENS—EARL—In Kington.

Obituary.—Masonic. At a regular Communication of Weatbrook Lodge, No. 333, the following Preamble and resolutions were adopted : WHEREAS, It has pleased Almighty God, to re move our worthy Bro. James Tutton from this trans itory existence, and Whereas, the records of this Lodge, show the remarkable fact, that from its in stallation in Feb. 1354, to the time when he was prostrated by the dise tse which so suddenly termi nated in death, a space of more than 9 years, he was never absent from his post as Sect, of this Lodge at any regul aror special Communication, except on one occasion, and Whereas, our departed brother, by hig faithful performance of his every duty as an officer of this Lodge, and by his blameless life and the kindness of his heart had gained the respect and esteem of his follows. Therefore Resolved, That in his death this Lodge has lost an eminently faithful and efficient officer, and the Fraternity a worthy and examplary member, and that although "The place that knew him shall know him no more," yet that " the memory of a Broth er is precious and we will write it in our hearts." Resolved, That our implements be draped in mourning and the usual badge be worn six months. Resoltcd, That this preamble and these resolu tions be entered at length in our minutes, and a copy forwarded to the son of our deceascJ brother, our worthy brother, Geo S. Tutton. S. CLAPP, W. M. Geo. P. Cady, Sect. Obituary. The following ouituary notice of Merrit H. Wilson, wc find in the Christian Ambassador, which, though received some time since, was accidentally mislaid. From a long and intimate, personal acquaintance with the deceased, we add our testimony to that of the writer, as to his many virtues. It is as a school mate and student that we knew him best. As such, he never shirked any task nor neglected any duty. Disdaining all the little tricks of pedantry, be studied for the sake of truth and not for the display of knowl. edge As a room and class mate he was honorable generoub and kind. And now, a3 we look back in memory, to those happy scho, l-boy days, when each was made the confidante of the other—the repository of all his school-boy dreams, of his hopes and tears for the unveiled future ; we can but sigh with regret that to him, life has been so short; that just when his youthful hopes were blossoming i nto f ra i tion) ho should fall before the scythe of Time ; and that in his death, we have lost one of our truest friends and brothers, the profession of his choice, one of its most ardent devotees, and society one of its brightest ornaments. ED. DIED.—In Factoryville, Wyoming Co. Pa., Aug 29th, of pulmonary consumption, MERRIT 11. WIL SON, M D, aged 28 years, son of Dr. P. and E. Wilson, In 1850, young Wilson was a student of Central liege, N. Y., and Jan. Ist, 1856, received a diplo ma as a member of the graduating class in Practical and Ornamental Penmanship. Q n leaving this school he commenced the study of medicine in the office of hie father. As a further means of advancement in hieehoeen profession, in the winter of 1861, he en- i the University of Michigan, and beside the as- I ual study of medicine, attended a special course of lectures on the principles of chemistry and mineralo gy, at the close of which he received a diploma bear ing honorable testimony to his diligence and profi ciency. In the fall and winter ot 1862, be attended the established course of lectures in Columbia Med ical College, City of N. Y., and at the olose obtained his diploma as a graduate of the same. lie now re ceives the appointment of resident physician of the Brooklyn City Hospital for one year, and at the close of his term receives a certificate ol having performed the duties of his position to (ho satisfaction of the trustees of that Institution. Having overtaxed his mental and physical energic, he is now obliged to return to the parental home in failing health. The insidious disease which terminated his life, having already made fearful ravages upon his constitution. A few months now of wasting and suffering, and the scene closes. He bore his affliction with great pa- j tience, and fortitude, and passed calmly and peace fully away to the higher and better life. Parents, brothers, and sisters, and numerous friends, lament, that one whose mental aud moral endowments fitted him for public usefulness, and for becoming an orna ment to his profession, should thus leave them at the early dawn of manhood. But their trust is in j that overruling Providence, whose infinite wisdom I and mercy can never err, nor ultimately prove un- I kind, On the 31st ult. the funeral took place, and ' appropriate religious services were held in the First i Baptist Church in this place, with an address by the writer, in the presence of a large and sympathizing congregation ; after which there were impressive Ma sonic ceremonies at the grave, performed by the Lodge of which deceased was a member.
