SexArs.—A. proposition to inquire into the causes of the disasters to the army at Bull Run, , Ball's Bluff, Wilson's Creek, and Lexington, was discussed and postponed. It was resolved to investigate the ease of Col. Miles, of the army, who had been charged with drunkenness. • . . Mr, - Titplitial, of 111., introduced his -bin for confiscating the property and giving freedcm to he slaves of the rebels.

The bill also forfeits the claims of ell rebels, and those who give aid and comfort to tie persons they hold in slavery, declares the slaves thus forfettedlree, and makes it the duty c f the President toprovide, for the colonization f such as may be willing to go to some tropical ountry, where they may have the protection of the Government, and be secured in all the rights nd privileges of men. The property belonging t traitors, or those giving them aid or comfort, vho may be convicted by judicial tribunals to be f Welted on their conviction—the real estate for Ife and the personal property forever. Mr. rumbull argued at some length in support of t As bill. The bill was ordered to be printed, and re f aired to the Committee on the Judiciary. Deo. 9.—Both Houses adjourned on Thursday, 1.11 to-day. SENATI9,—Mr. SUCITIIer, Mr. Collemer, and the President of the Senate, each presented petitions i ► favor of emancipating 'the slaves. Memorials and papers relative to the recogni tion of Liberia and Hayti were taken from the 'lles, and referred to the Ccimmittee on Foreign Lffairs. An animated dlsoussion,was held on the sub. j 3ot of a proposition to abolish the. Supreme ( curt. A aubstitute was offered and carried, re -1 rring so much of the President's Message as re -1 Ited to the Judiciary, to the Judicial Committee. Mr. Chandler's resolution ,of inquiry into the causes of the Bull Run and other disasters, was ebated and adopted. Boom—The Committee on Foreign Affairs i•as instructed to inquire into the expediency of .3rnishing supplies to the starving population of Ireland. A long and ardent discussion was had on the I object of Gen, Nannies order excluding colored i , eople from his army lines. Nothing, however, NI as determined.

A bill to authorize the President to acquire territory to colonize the free persons of African descent, was referred to the Committee onpublio :.nods. Mr. Chandler announced the death of Hon. I:ingsley S. Bingham, of Michigan, during the ceess of the Senate. Bousr.—Mr. Pendleton, of Ohio, spoke strong ly against the suspenaion-of the habeas corpus, by the President; and contended that none but abn i,ress had this power. Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, replied. The substance of the reply is thus reported: Mr. Bingham,: or Ohio, replied that all his col league had said or cook say bad been fully and atisfactorily answereeby the argument of the orney General, heretofore submitted. Not withstanding the ability of his colleague, he, Mr. I 'endleton, bad not been able to disguise the fact that the time had come which was contemplated I , y the words of the ConiAntiph . for the suspen .' ing of the writ of habeas c'orpus. It was import,- :lit that some power should do so. If this be conceded, then his colleague's argument des ! eoyed itself. It implied a censure on the House not discharging the duty long ago, as required y the oath which they had all taken to support t:ie Constitution. His •colletigue'S position was at Congress alone can suspend this writ, while .conceding that the time was come for its,suspen. t ion. When rebellion had lifted 1106 head over .b large portion of this republic and essayed to .hake down the pillars of the Constitution, and had deluged the land . in fraternal bltiik it r ifts 1:0 time to be splitting hairs as to whether Con crests or the President should tint exercise the • lower. Did his colleague contemplate a general jail Lelivery or wish to confine his sympathies to the rebels and conspirators of the city of Baltiinore? Had he no sympathies for those confined in the .old Capitol? Why should not they also be die charged. Assuming his colleague's position - to I,e right., then his colleague was direlect in his duty, in not moving a suspension of the ivrit in accordance with the oath he bad taken to maintain, protect and defend the Constitution. The laws are to be executed, and not only exe ented by force, but by the sword, against the Towers of rebellion. It did not lie in the mouths fit' the memorialists to claim the benefit of the t'onstitution, every provision of which they had trampled under foot. On motion of Mr. Burlingame, the whole sub ject was laid on the table, by a vote of 108 Yeas to 28 nays. X ssour Gen. listleck, the commandant of the Depart rient of the Missouri, has issued an important order in reference to affairs there. All rebels and all who aid the enemy are to be arrested, and ftheir property is to be confiscated and gold ; those ...tound in disguise as pretended loyal citizens are "to be shot; rebels who commit hostility Will be punished according to the rules of war; destitute I•)yttlists, who have been driven from their tibees i• Ale rebels, are to be quartered in the houses, and clothed at the expense of the aeons s. These are stringent measures, but. the tacy . of the Missouri rebels rendqrs them. :sly' necessary. • •-‘ Important Army Order, important Army Order has just been is )y the Secretary of War, which directs officers and enlisted men of the volunteer , now prisoners in the hands of the , or reported missing in action, or who iereafter he taken prisoners or reported g, shall bo transferred to skeleton regi to be formed by the Governors, of ,the tive States, and to consist entirely of such and mon—the vacancies thus ocoasioned organised regiments to be filled by the Lore. tents of Troops in Missouri and Hen tacky. tps are now concentrating at St. Louis and ills with extraordinary rapidity.

The Louisville Democrat, of Friday, contains Borne significant intimations relative to this Nash ville movement. It says : .4 Our readers may as well prepare to hear, before the close of this month, news as stirring as that from the great fleet, and this time the news will be of more in terest to us, because of its nearness, Kentucky Will, 'to a great extent, end the war, so far as the land forces are concerned." Reports of Secretaries. Most of these we have read, and with deep in terest.. That. of the War Department. we give pretty fully, on our fourth page. It,deserves an attentive perusal. The Report of the SECRETARY OF THE NAVY 18 also an able and most satisfactory document.. We give a few extracts: When the 'vessels now building and purchased, of every class, are armed, equipped, and ready for service, the condition of the Navy will be as follows : I=l Number of Vossele.

The aggregate number of seamen in the service on the 4th of March last was 7,600. The number is now not less than 22,000: VESSELS CAPTURED Since the institution of the blockade, one hun dred and, fifty-three vessels have been oaptured sailing under various flags, inost of which were at tempting to violate the blockade. With few ex ceptions, these vessels were in such condition, when seized, as to authorize their being sent at once to the courts for adjudication and condemna tion as prizes. Appended to this report is a list of the vessels which have been captured. SINKINC} VESSELS One method of blockading the ports of the in surgent States, and interdicting communication as well as to prevent the egress of privateers which sought to depredate on our commerce, has been that of sinking in the channels vessels laden with stone. The first movement in this direction was on the North Carolina coast, where there are numerous inlets to Albemarle and Pamlico Sounds, .and other interior waters which Afforded facilities for eluding the blockade, and also to the privateers. For 'thispnrpose a class of small vessels were purchased in Baltimore, some of which have been placed in Ocracoke Inlet. Another and larger description of vessels were bought in the Eastern market, most of them such as were formerly employed in the whale fisheries. These were sent to obstruct the channels of Charleston harbor and the Savannah river;. and this, if effectually done, will prove the most econ omical and satisfactory method of interdicting commerce at those points. ESTIMATES AND APPROPRIATIONS The amount appropriated at the last regular session of Congress for the naval service for the current year was $13,168,075.86. To this was added at the special session in July last, $30,- 446,875.91—making for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1862, an aggregate of $43,615,551.77. This sum will not be sufficient, however, for the purpose, and therefore additional appropriations will be necessary. There will be required to pay for vessels purchased, and for necessary altera tions incurred in fitting them for naval purposes, the sum of $2,530,000; for the purchase of addi tional vessels, $2,000,000; and for the construc tion and completion of twenty iron-Clad vessels, sl2,ooo,ooo—making a total of $16,530,000. This sum is independent•of the estimates submit ted for the next fiscal year, and being required for current expenses as well as objects of imme diate importance, it is desirable should receive early attention from Congress. The estimates submitted by this Department for the fiscal year ending June 80, 1868, amount to $44,625,665.02, viz.: For the navy proper,.. $41,096,530 25 For the marine c0rp5,......::...... 1,105,656 77 For navy, yards, hospitals, maga zines and miscellaneous objects, 2,423,478 00 The reports of the chiefs of the bureaus and the commandant of the marine corps, with their accompanying estimates, exhibit in detail the ob jects for which the appropriations are required. I would also refer to these reports as containing information and suggestions in regard to matters pertaining to the several departments of the naval service. Our navy has increased in vigor more rapidly than had ever been witnessed before in any na tion. And it is destined still to increase. These great armaments are attended with vast expense, but if we would have peace and the blessings of a self-government and a good government, we must meet the cost. The millennium is not here yet, and will not he during this generation. To avoid war we must be prepared for it. If we are evi dently strong and always ready, none will wan tonly assail us; and if then we are also disposed to be just and courteous to our neighbors, we will live in undisturbed quietness. This domestic trouble - has come upon. us as much by the unpre paredness and unwarlike character of the North, as by the ambition and injustice of the South. It behooves us with energy and justice to settle this, and ever after to show such a spirit and audit a readiness for self-defence, that neither do mestic nor foreign foe will be tempted to disturb the nation's peace. Postmaster-General's Report. Number of Post Offices, 28,586. Expendi tures for the year ending June 30th, 1861, $13,- 606,759. Gross earnings $8,849,296. The subject of dead letters, or miscarriage of lettere, is one 'of much ; importance. The following is the substance , of, the remarks in the report: The result of successful investigation in seven thousani five hundred and sixty cases confirm the pa.vt experiences of the Department that the tailure of a letter to reach its destination is, in the vast majority of instances, the fault alone of the writer or sender. • ' , Out of the above seven thousand, five hundred and sixty valuable dead letters three thousand, ,ancininety-five were directed to the wrong office, four hundred and sixty-seven were .imperfectly addresedoix hundred and twelve were directed to transient persons, two hundred and fifty-seven to parties:who had changed their residenoes, eight bundred and twenty-one were addressed to fictitious persons or firms, eighty-three were =- called for, ten without any directions, twenty one hundred and thirty-six were not mailed for want of postage stamps, seventy-nine were mis t:sent; and for the failure of postmasters to deliver one hundred and thirty-three, no sati s fa c t or y reit:eon was assigned. • The Department, there fore, can justly be held'responeible for the non delivery of but two hundred and twelve of those lettece. ' Much other valuable 'detail; given on this sub ject, and it is worthy of remark that out of seventy-six thousand seven hundred and sixty ninerlettere, before alluded to, originating in the: loyal States, and addressed to 'residents of dis loyal States, forty thousand could not be return ed, either because the signature of the writer was incomplete, or because the letter contained no clue to his residence. The experience of the Department shows that a large proportion cif do mestic letters, written by educated Persons, and particularly by women, are deficient in one or both of these respects. ,Tha-Poifsfteiiiter-Gimeral givesthis reason for ,excluding disloyal publications from the mails. To itwalt.the results of slow jUdieial prosecution was to allow crime to be . consomtheied, with :the expeotation of-subsequent punishment, instead. ehVoliffitielunchlt* Prompt and PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.--SATURDAY, DECEMBER 14, 1861. direct interference. Of the cases presented for It's action, upon the principles which he names, he has, by order, excluded from the mails, twelve of these treasonable publications, of which sev eral had been previously presented by the Grand Jury as incendiary and hostile to Constitutional authority. While the. Postmaster-General did not claim the authoriy to suppress any newspaper, how ever disloyal and treasonable ita contents, the Department could not be called upon to give them circulation. "It could not, and would not, interfere with the freedom secured by law, but I could and did object to the dissemination of that license which was without the pale of the Con stitution and law. The mails established by the United States Govenment could not, upon any known principles of law or probable right be 'Used for its destruction. As well could the com mon carrier be required to transport a machine designed for the destruction of the vehicles con veying it, or an innkeeper be compelled to enter tain a traveller whom he knew to be intending to commit a robbery in his house." He finds these views supported by the high au thority of the late Chief Justice Story, of the Supreme Court of the United States, whose opinion he quotes. A contest between weapons for assault, and shields for protection, has been ever carried on in the fields of art and science. At. present the effort is to obtain ships, which shall be invulnera ble by artillery. The cannon and projectiles'of recent invention are adequate to the speedy de struction of all such vessels of war as had hith erto carried the British sailors triumphantly over every sea. The question now is, whether vessels can be so built as to be indistructible by the im proved cannon. The English and French think they have made the attainment, and are rapidly transfroming their navies from wooden to iron Following the example, our Congress, at the late extra session„appropriated a million and a half of dollars for the procuring of iron-clad ships-of-war. The matter was entrusted to three of, our distinguished Navy officers. Tbese have arranged for the building of three such vessels. One of these we, find described in the Scientific American. It is called This vessel is to be of a very singular con struction. It will not be near the size of a cona .mon line-of-battle ship. It is to, be 174 feet long, and 44 feet broad. It will have a wooden bulwark 80 inches thick, coated with rolled iron 6 inches thick. It is to have a turret on the cen tre, of 30 feet diameter, 9 feet high, with walls of rolled iron .9 inches thick. This will contain two immense guns, and be capable of being so turned that the guns can be pointed in any di rection. It will be propelled by steam. 518 71,297 256 41,448 The contract for this structure was made Oc tober sth. It was to be completed in a hundred days—say on January 13th. A thousand men are now employed on it. Several rolling-mills are engaged in preparing the iron. It is sup posed that it will be able toapproach and de stroy any battery of the rebels, on our coasts and rivers. We have not seen any description of the other two vessels. They will be different in construc tion, but of equal, or greater power. With,the three completed, our, navy officers hope to be able to reach and capture Norfolk, and to re-take Sumpter. DECEMBER 4.—Charles J. Faulkner, of Vir ginia, will be released from Fort Warren, on his, parole. The .letter has probably already , been mailed for that purpose. He will proceed imme diately South, and procure a similar release of Hon. Alfred Ely. If not successful in that er rand, he has pledged himself to return to cus tody in thirty days. A letter from Port Royal says that one of the Quartermasters, on his own responsibility, has set forty cotton gins at work. The negroes re ceive three cents per pound for all the market able cotton, and have gone into the business with enthusiasm. DECEMBER 6.—Lieut. Col. Tteynolds has been appointed resident agent at Port Royal, under the general regulations relative to securing and disposing of the property found or brought within the territory now or hereafter occupied by the United States forces in the disloyal States. He has been ordered to report to the Secretary of the Treasury. The account given by a New-York paper, of the difference between the President and Mr. Cameron in regard to amending the report of the latter, is grossly unjust to the President. Mr. Cameron yielded to the suggestions of the . Presi dent, and himself amended his report by striking out such parts as the President objected to, agreeing to support the President's views fully and cordially. DECEMBER 7.—The steamer lit: Vernon, yes terday took down Commodore Wyman, Flag Officer of the Potomac flotilla, to the Harriet Lane ' off Indian Head, returning to the Navy Yard in the evening. It is believed from all that can be gathered that the rebel force in front of our lines numbers at least 100,000 men. The Vermont Cavalry Regiment will leave Bur lington, Vermont, on Wednesday, for New-York, in a train of one hundred and twenty-five cars. It is comprised of the best sharp-shooters of the Stater The horses are of the celebrated Morgan stock, selected with great care by Cola Plath, who commands the regiment. The regiment is composed of a thousand men, fully equipped with everything excepting rifles. Gen. Smith's division, went out to-day in the neighborhood of Vienna, and gathered ninety four wagon-loads of forage. No enemy was seen in any direction. The policy of colonizing . the negroes of rebels who may be confiscated and emancipated during the war, had a thorough discussing in the Cabinet; end developed great strength and popu larity. Mr. Seward lends to the measure his cordial 'and -unqualified support. It will doubt less be adopted as an Administration measure. Gen. Wool recently held a council with his of ficers, and they unanimously came to the conclu sion that a demonstration ought to be made upon Richmond from that point. Gen. Wool is, therefore, anxious that the dovernment should give him the requisite number of men and means for that purpose. The subject is before the Gov ernment, Dxc. 9.—A delegation of eighty Cherokees, Creeks, and Seminoles have arrived here to ex amine and report to their people the true condi tion of political affairs. They had an it4erest ing conference to-day with the Secretary of the Interior and Commissioner of Indian Affairs, and have expressed their surprise at finding things so entirely different from the representations made to them by the rebel leaders. *reign Pin. THE INTERVENTION IN .MEXICAN AFFAIRS We have at length the . treaty between England, France, and Spain, relative to their intervention in Mexico. We give its principal, features: Her majesty, the , Queen of the United King dom of Great Britain and Ireland, Her Majesty the Queen of Spain, and 'His Majesty the Empe ror of the French, feeling themselves compelled, by the arbitrary and' vexatious conduct of the authorities of the Republic of Mexico, to de mand from those authorities more efficacious protection for the persons and , properties of their subjects, as well as a fulfillment of the obliga tions contracted toward 'their Majesties by the Republic of Mexico, have agreed to conclude a Convention, with 'a view to combine their com— mon action. . Aim 1. Her Majesty the Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Her Ma jesty the Queen of Spain,6and His Majeity the Emperor of ‘he French, engage to make, imme diately after the signature of the present Con vention, the ,• necessary arrangements fOr patching to ttin, coast of Mexico, combined naval and thilitarY forces, the strengtliOryiliidh shall be detern3ined by a 'further ititarchange Of corn muniaations lbetweart their Govertinfents; but of which the total shall , be sufficient to {Baize and occupy the several, „fortresses and military pcisi dons on the Mexican.eoast. .gEtT. t. The high 'contracting parties engage lint to seek` for theniselvei, in the employment of the coercive measures contemplated by the pres ent Convention, any acquisition of territory nor may special advantage, and not to, exercise in the internal affairs of Mexico any influence of a na ture to 'prejudice the right of the Meticri:n na tion to choose and to conititute freely the form of its Government.

But as by delaying to put into execution articles I. and 11. of the present Convention, the high contracting'parties would incur a risk of failing in the object which they desire to attain, they have agreed not to defer, with the view of ob taining the accession of the Government of the United States, the commencement of the above mentioned operations beyond the time at which their combined forces can be assembled in the neighborhood of Vera Cruz. There is much speculation in the foreign jour nals on this subject. Difficulties are anticipated. Some anxiety is manifested as to how it may be viewed in the United States; it being an inter ference such as, since the days, of President Monroe, our Government has said it would not permit. The protestation is that it is not in tended to be inimical to us, and will.not inter fere with our blockade. mmtrziaL rlttsbiirgh litarket. - 'WEDNESDAY, December 11,1861 APPLES-42.50@3X0 bbl.

PATTHRSON, a Licentiate of the Presbytery of Carlisle. Mr. P. was born near Mereersburg, Pa., July 22d,1860, and in his twentieth year became a member of the church in this place, by a profession. of his faith in Christ. He was graduated at Marshall College in 1852. and afterwards spent ''four years in the Western Theological Seminary. Ito was licensed to preach the Gospel by the Presbytery'of Carlisle, June 17th, ; and having preached with great acceptance fora year, to the churches of Dillsburg and Petersburg, a call for his services as pastor was presented to him, which being accepted, the. Presbytery met on the 14th of August, 1860, to ordain and install him. But Mr.' Patterson's health, which had been feeblW for some time, gave - way so seriously-, About the time of the meeting of Presbytery, that lie could uut,be present, and therefore was not ordained.. Nor was he ever able after this to resume his labors. The following Winter he spent in Mercersliurg, and the succeeding Summer in Minnesota; hoping that by means of that invigorating climate he might be enahladto resume the dutiea of the min istry. For a time, his health seemed re improve. Bu? sod denly and unexpectedly, on the 2411 of. November, he web called to Isis reward in heaven. Iris death took place in the hoise of the Bor. Wm. Speer, a • kinsman, in whose family he met with every ltindneis which a stranger in a strange land needed. Mr. P. was a Matt of deep piety, of cultivated mind, of genial disposition, and more than ordinarily endowed for the work to which he had been called. AS preacher, he Was earnest and impressive. His, discourses were full of Chrlid, lucid and edifying. His heart was in his work ; and one of his severest trials was that hi should be laid aside from the active duties of the ministry, and that his lips should be sealed. But his labors are not lost.. The Lord had need of him in another, a Itigher and Imlier,fteld of labor, and he his taken him from us. We haw in - humble submiS7 sion to the will of Him who" " doeth - all things Well."

DIED—In .linion congregation, Armstrong County, Pa, November 14th, 1861, Dr. WM. W. WICK, late of Rimers burg. Clarion County, Pa., aged 29 years. The character of this interesting young man seems tohave been one of rare purity and simplicity. Ills years were few, but they were crowded with work. Let the aimless and idlers read the following record: In his sixteenth year he began teaching school ; in his eighteenth, he entered a store as salesman; in his nineteenth, he received an agency from the "State Mutual Fire Insurance Company;" and in his twenty-first, entered College at Meadville. The following yearhe commenced the study of medicine with his brother; the neat, he entered the Medical School in Cleveland, and the year after, the`Cleveland Infirmary, where he was soon after appointed' Resident Physician. He came to Rimers burg, Clarion county, in July, 1856, where he remained un til ins death, engaged in a lucrative practice. Thus was his work crowded into his years. A few extracts from his pri vets journal will show what spirit he was of. July 14th, 1836, be writes : "'Just three years ago I first conceived the idea of studying medicine. Where shall I be three years hence T I may be in .R, engaged in practice. I may have failed here, and gone to a distant clime; and long ere that time I may have gone to that country from whose bourne no traveller 'return's: For that last change, God grant that / may be more assiduous in preparing myself, than for any other I" December 31st, 1830, after mentioning various in stances of God's goodness to him, he writes: "In view of these blessings, may I feel humble and thankful to God, from wham cometh every good and perfect gilt.. And now, at the close of this year, let me make this resolve: 'Let oth ers do as they will; as for me, I will serve the-Lord: Shalt this resolve be kept 2 God grant that it may," &c. Again : "May the blessing of God crown my efforts to relieve the sick and afflicted I Without thy aid we can do nothing." December, 1858, he writes:' "I find that my good resolves made December 3180896, have been but imperfectly kept. Indeed on that subject my mind is not so sensitive us then; perhaps it may be different ere long ; I hope thatit may." Again, he writes: " The peat has been prosperous ; the fu ture is clouded in darkness. May my footsteps be directed by Him who death all things well,' and may. Ibe inclined to do his commands." July, 1859:." When I read in my'Journal the good re solves made, but never carried out, I am .constrainedvo - say; •The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; - whO can - know it?' " " Well," he says, "a great many strange events have happened in the past three years, a great many will happen in the next three. What shall they be? No human'eye seas---it . is well none does!" The own death was one of theme oventir. December 31st, .1859: "Time I 0 how quickly dost thou pass I And what shall I say of myself? God has most mercifully dealt with me the past year. May I see hi goodness, and forsake my sins and cleave unto him through the atoning Bac - A - Ace of Calvaryi The hour of midnight has come I May a Donut!. MI, kind Providenee watch over my footsteps this year, as in years, past, and may he incline my heart to his ways," &c. February 20th, 1800, he writes: "There is a protracted meeting in the Presbyterian church.' Last night I felt thatl was living in sad neglect of my duty, in standing back, and not uniting with the church.. * * To-night I stepped and conversed With the members of Session. * And nowthat I have taken a step forwaid, Oh i Godgrant that I may be enabled to a press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus." :Friday, June let, 1860, he was admitted to C-011179111011 by the Session of Bethesda church. June 2d, he was baptized; Jane 3d, partook of the Lord's Supper; and November 14th, 1861, fell asleep in Jesus. ' ' Thus ended the busy life of this interestliq young man. May his example bring many Others of his profession to the feet of Situ who said : They that are whole need not it phy. slcum, but they that are sick." . IL DIED—At her own residence. near. Antrim, Ohio,Mrs. MA.ItTIIA. J., wife of Mr. Samuel H. M'Cotev, in the 32d . year of her age. . The deceased held a high place in the affections of all with whom she associated. Early in life ehe united herielf with the Amociate Reformed Presbyterian ,church of Antrim, Ohio, in which she ,was an ornament, and an example to all her associates. After her marriage to Mr. M'Coley, sin con nected herself with the Old school Presbyterian church of Birmingham, in which church she And an exemplary mem ber until her death. The deceased exhibited a character remarkable for simplicity of , purpoee and singleness of aim, showing at the same time great reverence for sacred things. And nothing stood higher iii her esteem than the ordinance of Divine appointment; as long as her strength permitted she was found in her pleat in the sanctuary,' and to hold communion with God's people was esteemed one of her chief delight& But perhaps in nothing did the evidence of her deep piety shine. more clearly than in her devotional spirit, and the estimate she placed upon prayer and spiritual com munion. During those seasons of gloom that frequently .crosses the Christian's pathway, she found "a calm, a sure retreat beneath the blood-bought mercy seat." There she obtained her most signal victory over the adversary. Peacefully and 'gently she fell asleep in Jesus, having re signed herself into the- hands of Him in whom she believed, and whom she was persaaded was able to keep that which she had committed unto hirougainet that day. May.the.serviring relatives, and all the dear ones left grace' be hind, be enabled by' eto meet their departed friend where sorrow and sighing can never come. A. Is K.
