Effect of Light—Dr. Moor, the metaphy sician, thus speaks of the effect of light on body and mind :—" A tadpole confined in darkness would never become a frog; and a n infant being deprived of heaven's free light will only grow into a shapeless idiot, i ns tead of a beautiful and reasonable being. Renee, in the deep, dark gorges and ra vines of the Swiss Valais, where the direct sunshine never reaches, the hideous preva lence of idiocy startles the traveler. It is a strange, melancholy idiocy. Many citi zens are incapable of any articulate speech; some are deaf, some are blind, some labor under all these privations, and all are mis shapen in almost every part of the body. • believe there is in all places a marked difference in the healthiness of houses ac cording to their aspect with regard to the sun, and those are decidedly the healthiest, other things being equal, in which all the rooms are, during some part of the day, fully exposed to the direct light. Epidem ics attack inhabitants on the shady side, of a street, and totally exempt those on the oth er side; and even in epidemics, .such as ague, the morbid influence is often thus partial in its labors." Elevation of the Coat] of Chlll.—That the latter coast is being gradually elevated, would appear from the fact that for half a century the harbors of the country have been diminishing in depth. On examining the coast between Conoeption and Rio Manic, the various escarpments of schistose rocks will be found to present several cavi ties formed in other times, by stone-boring mollusks ; these markings succeed each other without interruption from high-water level to a height of from 8 to 10 ,metres (about 80 feet). The upper ones arc much morterowded thin those below, thus prov ing that the elevation has been gradual; for had it taken place at various iniervals, there would be a series of interruptions in the series, which do not exist. Temperatures at which Metals 8011. These have been hitherto determined by means of an sir pyrometer, but M. Becquerel has' adopted another method for their determi nation. The instrument he employs is a ammo-electric pile, and with it he found. that the following metals boil at the follow ing degrees Fahrenheit :—eadmiiim, 1,328; zinc, 1,688;. silver .1,681; gold, 1,879;. palladium, 2,617; Platinum, 2,690. It is of some importance to state that certain of these figures aro lower than those obtained by M. Becquerel, when using the air pyrometer.

The War.—The advises last week from the Army of the Potomao closed with the informs- tion that Gen. Grant was successfully transfer ring his forces from the Chiokahominy to the James RiTer. After several days' preliminary preparations, the movement commenced on Sun day night, June 12th. The Eighteenth Army Corps, under command of Gen. Smith, marched to White House, and there embarked on trans ports for Bermuda Landing. Gen. Wright's corps and Burnside'e moved to James bridge, when they crossed the Chickahominy and marched thence to Charles City, on The James River. Gene. Hancock's and Warren's corps crossed the Chiokahominy at Long Bridge, and marched thence .to Wilcox's, on the James River. The James River was .crossed by the army at Flaxen Landing and at Powhattan Point, on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 14 and 16, partly in boats and partly on a pontoon bridge. The enemy, although suspicious that such a move was meditated, appears to have been wholly un prepared to resist it, and the . passage of the James was safely effected without opposition. The usually well-informed army correspondent of the N.•Y. Times affirms, in reference to this last movement, Viet from the very start, the trans fer of the army to the South aide of Richmond has formed an integral part of Gen. Grant's plan of campaign. Military men, he believeS, regard the present positien of the Army of the Po tomao as giving reason to indulge brighter hopes of ultimate success than has been possible at any previous time since the war began. Hith erto Gen. Grant has been unable to compel Lee to accept an open slid decisive field fight. We have gained repeatedviotories in an unparalleled campaign of twenty-nine days.; but our toss of life in proportion to that of the rebels was as five to three. This disproportion we could not have long stood. Now a new order begins. By holding the rail roads running South and West from Richmond via Petersburg, Danville, and Lynchburg, we plant ourselves across the enemy's lines of com munication, and have• a tourniquet around the throat of the rebellion. If Lee allows himself to be shut up in Richmond, there will be a repe tition orVicksburg over again. It' he cbmes out of his works and gives battle, in fair field fight, it is all the Army of tha•Potomao desires. Moreover the two' great rebel armies are now effectually sundered, and Johnson, coming' to reinforce Lee, would find his progress to Rich- fond barred by the same opponent who stopped his junction with Pemberton in Vicksburg. Gbn. Smith's- corps, 15,000 strong, which had been transferred by water from White House to Bermuda Hundred, arrived on Tuesday evening, and . Moved out toward Pefersbuig. On. Wednes day morning, June 15, Gen. Smith surprised and captured the very strong works northeast of Pe tersburg before a sufficient force could be got on them by the enemy to hold them. He was joined the night folloWing this capture by the sth corps, which in turn ottptured.more of the enemy's re doubts further south; and this corps was follow ed by the r 9th corps, which on Friday morning, June 17th, carried two more redoubts of the Pe tersburg defences. The works thus carried were of the 'strongest kind., and pronounced more difficult to take than Missionary Ridge, at Chattanooga. The hardest fighting is reported by General„ Butler to have been done by the bleak troops, who stormed the worst forts, and received the auks of General Smith, who said that hereafter he would trust them in a difficult place as readily as the best white troops. • Li the assault of Wednesday, nearly 400 pris oners were , taken, several stands of colors, and 16 cannon, of which 6 were taken by the black troops. In the assault on Friday, 4501 prisoners and four guns were taken. Our guns are said to command Petersburg, but at last accounts the enemy still held possession of the place. The enemy, in his endeavors to reinforce Pe- tersburg, abandoned his entrenohments in front of Bermuda Hundred. They no doubt expected troops from north of the James river to take their places before we discovered it. Gen. Butler took advantage of this, and moved a force at once up on the railroad and plankroad between Rich mond and Petersburg, which he hopes to retain possession of. Dispatolies from Bermuda Hundred, dated Saturday, June 18, state that Gen. Butler had succeeded in destroying an important bridge and four miles of railroad track, between Rich mond and Petersburg. There was a report that Butler had been driven back by Lee, with heavy lose, on the 17th. Troops were sent forward to Butler's support. On the morning of the 18th, the Ninth corps carried a portion of the second line of the rebel works, taking 600 prisoners. They had repulsed a rebel attack of the previous evening: • • - . An official dispatch from City Point ? dated 9 A. M., June 19th, states that on the preceding day, Saturday, our forces advanced to within a mile in front of PetersbUrg, where they found the enemy occupying a new line of entrench ments, which, after successive assaults, we failed to carry, but hOld and have entrenched our ad vanced position. During the assaults upon Petersburg, twenty one pieces of artillery have been taken, and 1,200 ,prisoners. Our loss during. Friday and Saturday, in -killed and wOunded, is estimated at 8,000. The enemy's loss, fighting behind their entrenchments, has not: been so severe. On Saturday evening, the rebels made another vigorous assault upon our:centre , and left, the Second and Ninth corps.- They were again re pulsed and driven to their works. On Sabbath morning, June 19th, the Second, corps charged. and carried the works in •their 'front, and at A. M. a continuation of these works on the right was also carried by our troops and is firm ly. held. Our advance Is said to be within a mile of Pe tersburg, which is consequently at the mercy of our guns. The remaining defences are never-- thelees stoutly maintained. The resistance has been so strong as to lead to the conviction that the town has been largely reinforced from Lee's srmy, some even supposing that, the Main body of the rebel army has been transferred to Te tersburg. - This seelna highly improbable. A speedy success, however, in the Capture of Pe tersburg, is not to be anticipated, and least of all a bloodless triumph. Gen. Sheridan's official report of his expedition, for whion so mph anglety has been felt, has been received. 'Gen. Lee had' reported a rebel victo ry over our cavalry, but Gen. Sheridan's report gives the affair a different tweet: On Sat urday, Junk . 11th, he met the enemy's cavalry in force at Trevellan Station, on the Virginia Cen tral Railroad, and sending Gen. Custer en a de -tour by a country road to the rebel rear, upon a united attack the enemy broke into a complete rout, leaving his dead and nearly all his wound ed in our hands, and else about 20 officers, 600 men, and 800 horses. - Oft Sabbath, June 12th, the railroad, from Tre vellan Station to Lorraine Court House was thor oughly destroyed by Sheridan's forges, the ties being bullied and the rails rendered unservicea ble. Upon moving toward Gordonsville, the en emy wan found so strongly entrenched, having been reinforced also, that it was not deemed pru dent to venture an assault, our ammunition be. sides being nearly expended, and the horses suf fering for want of - forage. Gen. Sheridan there. foie withdrew hie command over ihe North AMU} river. 001'10138 in the engagement' of June llth, was 85 killed, 490 wounded, and 160 taken prison ers. The enemy lost- heavily, in killed and wounded, and we took and brought off 870 pris oners, including 20 officers. Oen. Sheridan pro nounces it the most brilliant cavalry engagement of tlae.present campaign. Nothing new has been received from Gen. Bun ter's forces in the Virginia Valley. From Kentucky we hive a confirmation of the dispersion of Morgan's raiders. A gang, of about 800 rebels stacked Bardstown on Satur day morning,' June 19th. The garrison of 26 men,surrendered. The rebels thou destroyed a rallrbad brid near Beaton and crossing the 'Nashville - rai lr oad near Elilibethtown, moved toward Litchfield. Gen. Washburn, at Memphis, reports that the expedition, eoluditing of 8,000 cavalry, o,oooin fautch and 18 pieces of artillery, bent out from PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.--WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22, 1864. there a few days ago under command of General Sturgis, in th, encountered a large rebel force on the 10th inst., under command of Forrest, at Pun town, on the railroad running south from Cor inth, after a severe fight, in which our loss in killed and wounded was heavy, our forces were worsted. At last accounts Sturgis was at. Collinsville retreating toward Memphis. Dispatches state that, with the troops that had lately arrived, Memphis was safe. Gen. Sherman, having received the news of Sturgis' defeat, reports that he has already made arrangements to repair Sturgis' disaster, and placed Gen. A. J. Smith in command, who will assume the offensive immediately. Intelligence from Gen. Sherman, Tuesday, June 14th, was to the effect that he was then ad vancing his lines on Kenesaw. Gen. Thomas had gained some ground, and one rebel brigade was nearly surrounded. The rebel Oen. Polk was killed on that day. On Wednesday, June 16th, heavy fighting was reported. Blair 's corps was storming the enemy's works. Our whole army was in line and firing along the entire front. .•The rebels were being slowly driven back under a fire mainly of artillery. Our losses were slight. Blair was reported south of the Chattahoochie river on Wednesday night. John son bad massed his artillery to prevent our right from crossing.' A general fight. was expected there. A rebel courier was captured Tuesday night with dispatches from Johnson to Wheeler, ordering him to destroy the bridge which Sher man recently built over the Etowah. , . - • Gen. Sherman reports that, in the italisiof the darkne'ss and storm of Saturday 'evening; June 18th, the enemy in his front gave way, and . at daylight on Sunday our advance entered the rebel line from right to left.' The whole army is now in pursuit as far as the Chattahoochie. Gen. Sherman adds: "I start at once for Ma rietta." General—On Wednesday, June 15th, C. L. Tallandingham returned to his residence at Day ton, Ohio. On the same day he made his ap pearance at a Democratic distriot Convention, held at Hamilton, to the surprise of "the assem bly, and was received• with enthusiasm. He spoke briefly, denying that he - bad encouraged desertions from the army, or counseled disobedi ence to lawful authority. It is not known what course the Government will pursue, but ifis sur mised that for the present, Vallaudigharn will not be interfered with. President Lincoln visited the Philadelphia Sanitary Fair on Thursday, June 16th. The streets from the depot to the hotel, and from the hotel to the Fair, were thronged with people anxious to .obtain a view.. of the visitor. After being conducted around o the Fair,:he made a brief sPeeeh in reply to a complimentary toast. In the course, of his remarks. he ventured the prediction that Gen. Grant was now in a posi tion from which he could not be dislodged by tixe enemy, until Richmond ehould be . taken. Mr. Lincoln paid a' tribute .to the value of the Sanitary and Chrititiap Commissions. Since the 17th of October last, six hundred thousand men, not iholuding black men have enlisted or re-enlisted in our 'fatties, and one hundred and, twenty-five millions of dol lora have been expended in bounties. since that period. Within the past year seven hundred thousand men have been put in the field, and since General Grant commenced his march toward the rebel capital, reinforcements to the number of forty-eight thousand men, exclusive of the one hundred days men—some two thou sand or more—havebeen forwarded to him. The Assistant Treasurer at New-York received from the Secretary of the Treasury, JuuelOth, the following important statement of the posi tion of the public debt, and circulation:. The amount of debt, including all legal tender notes and unpaid requisitions, is $1,919,495,188.88: The amount of interest bearing legal tender notes withdrawn ii $88,800,700.00. The amount of ordinary legal tender - notes withdrawn and placed in reserve 'is $17,258,872.00, showing a reduction at present of legal tenders of ,all de scriptions to be $56,149,572.00. This statement, says Mr. Chase, shows the actual present state of the debt and circulation. Of couse •it will be necessary to replace' a portion of the five per cent. legal tenders with•compound interest at six per cent. Mr-Cisco states, of personal assuran ces from the Secretary of the Treasury, that it is not the purpose of Mr. Chase to issue an amount of the compound interest of six per cent. equivalent to the amount of legal tenders thus retired, but to contract their circulation as much as possible, and to regulate future issues of cur rency by the strictest necessity. There arc the highest official'assurances too That these are Mr. Chase's future intentions. - - The ceremony of dedicating the site for the Battle Monument, at West Point, New-York, took place on Wednesday, June 15. Gen. Geo. B. McClellan: delivered the address, in which he paid an eloquent tribute to the memory of the noble soldiers and officers who have fallen dur ing the present struggle. A selection has been made of the - design of Mr. James G. Batterson for the National Monu ment at Gettysburg. The monument is to be of white granite, resting on a pedestal of the same material. From the pedestal will spring tour buttresses, which will support an equal number of statues. These statues will represent, respec tively, War, History, Peace, and Plenty. The crowning statue of the whole monument is to be a colossal bronze figure of the Genius of Liber ty, which will be fifteen - feet high. Of the entire monument the height will be fifty feet.' The monument itself is to oost $60,000, but head stones and other things connected with the job will bring the entire bill up to something like $120,000. The Cincinnati Timm states that the fortifica tions around that city cover an area of nine miles, have eighty pieces of cannon of large cali bre, and two hundred rounds of ammunition to each gun. As late - as Tuesday last, on this ex treme circuit of defeice there were just ten men guarding these valuable works. John Morgan, with his forces, if he had chosen to make a di version from his route to Cynthiana, could have reached those works in twelve hours. Admiral Lee has organized a torpedo and pick et division for °leering the banks of the James river of torpedoes. The division consists of three gunboats, seven armed boats and 150 men, and precedes the fleet in its advance up the riv er. They have already secured eleven infernal machines, four of which contained twelve hun dred pounds, and one contained two thousand pounds of powder. They are &livery dangerous and powerful torpedoes. The engineering department in Gen. Sherman's army has been so well arranged, and such pro vision has been made for emergencies that might arise, that if any bridge should be burned by the rebels on their retreat, every timber needed to replace it has been made, and is now ready to 'find its fellow. In fact, the measurement of ev ery bridge from Dalton to Atlanta his been ob tained, and duplicates constructed ready tote erected instantly. A terrible explosion occurred at the Washing-. ton Arsenal on Friday, June 17, a few' minutes before 12 o'clock. It seems that some red stars for fire-works, had been made, and set out env black pans to dry. They could not stand a tem perature of more than 200 degrees, and under the hot sun soon reached-that. One of the stars ignited, which set the remainder off, exploding; the laboratory. The occupants of the'building were all females. Upon the explosion a terrible scene was witnessed. In the yard there- were about 1,200 men and 800 women at work, a num ber of whom were burned and bruised in endeav oring to get away. The alarm was immediately given, and after the ire was extinguished a search for bodies was commenced. Eighteen bodies have thus far been taken out of the ruins, burned to a crisp. It was impossible _to recog nize them. Eight females were taken :out in a sad cendition . and placed, in the, hospital. The scene at the yard was of the most heart-rending description. By a strange coincidence; . just be fore the explosion occurred, a letter was read to (hese girls acknowledging the receipt' of $l7O contributed by them for the erection of a monu ment to the *limp of an almost similar catas trophe at Pittsburgh, last year. On the.same clay, June 17, a fire oceurre.d in the Watervliet A.rsenal, near Albany, - 1: Y., where, through the hesitation of the men to go near the fire for fear of an explosion, the main buildings were in imminent danger of destruc tion.'

Foreign.—ln the Mouse of. Commens, May 20, the. Attorney General related the circum stances attending the purchase by the govern ment of the Laird rams. Before the seizure the Government had — offered to purchase, but the offer was refused. After the seizure, they were tendered for $1,500,000, which the Government considered too large, and declined. Later, the .purchase Ives agreed upon for $1,100,000, and thus a troublesome subject was disposed of, the builders still maintaining there had beeuno vio lation of.law on their part. In the liouse'of Lords, 'on the same day,. the rebellion in New Zealand was discussed. Earl Granville said every effort would be made to suppress it. Lord Lyttleton paid they ought to see the colony through the war in spite of the eapense. The suppression of their own rebel lions 18 popular in England, and 10 not considered inhuman or unoivilized. In regard to the Ameriettn rebellion, the Lon don Times says “The spirit in which the war has been carried on has made the resistance of the *Ugh hen" and desperate. The North might cease from its efforts to conquer the Confederacy to-morrow, and feel little of the struggle but the lossen it has involved. But for the South to yield would be social ruin, more extensiye than the most pro tracted war can produce. The army of the South reflects the feeling and temper of the pop ulation more fully than the troops of the North, as these are drawn more largely from the Euro pean immigration; and this difference must soon begin to tell on the relative military strength of the rival powers, if it is not already visible in the desperate resistance to this last Northern in- Taejon,'. In the Rouse of Lords, on the 2d inst., Lord Stratford de Redcliffe called attention to the state of Circassia and the emigration of the peo ple, owing to the Russian excesses. Earl ltus sell promised to produce all the information in his power. Ile said the details were of the most painful character, and he was afraid great bar barities had been committed. The telegrams announcing the recovery of the Pope are only half believed. The exclusion of all strangers from the Vatican duskinig the last few weeks leads some of the most suspicious persons to surmise that the Pope is really dead, and "thathis death is being concealed while his successor is being appointed and established on the Papal throne. These surmises, however, apt pear to have no ground. In the meanwhile, great excitement prevails in Italy, slid there seems to be no very cordial feeling between the governments of Turin and Paris.. A • A French blockhouse bag been captured at Senegal, and fifteen hundred French soldiers massacred by the blacks.

The buyers of the houses of A. T. Stewart, Ar nold, Constable & Co., and others whom I have met, say that their occripation is gone; thatOey have ceased to:buy until further orders, but that they do not expect to buy any more so long as the Covenant exists. The number of. American buyers, in France is very large, and they find themselves all at once out of employment,' The Paris Sleds says it hts received' a private letter respecting the. treatment to which Polish women are subjected by the Russians, which• contains such terrible details that it does not dare to publish them. They are torn from their families and transported to Siberia ; they are given, like slaves of old, to pitiless masters, who force them to contract fresh unions. Such is a' European method of suppressing a rebellion. Mr. Dayton, American Minister at Paris, hav ing submitted to the French Government Con vincing evidence that the four vessels of war building at Bordeaux and Nantes, were designed for the Confederate Government of, the Southern States, orders have been given that the vessels in question should not be permitted to leave the ports where they are building. M. Benyer, in giving his opinion, proves very clearly that an illegal and punishable act hap been committed. The French law upon this subject appears to be much clearer than the English law.

The London Times says all amounts represent the feeling in the Danish capital as warlike be yond all former example. The Danes will not make peace on the basis of giving-up,everything that could possibly be lost;by war. They are. making the most of their fleet, they are strength ening their defences, and are ready to try thel chances of another campaign. They inkow that even non:intervening England and unsympa thetic Prance can never allow their country to be blotted out of the list of nations: In these circumstances it is needless to say that the meeting. of the Conference on the 2d was not marked by any cheering progress in the nego tiations. The leading Danish papers violently denounce England's proposition. at the confer ence for a division of Schleswig, and call for_ earnest resistance. The news of the seizure of the Ohincha Islands from Peru, by Spain, has created very considerable excitement. We notice that the British press generally characterizes the not in severe terms. The - London News says it ap proaches so nearly to the character of direct and high-handed robbery that it is•dificult to imag ine it can be the act of any European or civil ized Government. The London Times says intelligence from Mad rid warrants a hope that the dispute with Peru will soon be honorably settled, the Spanish Gov ernment having entirely disapproved the recent conduct of their Admiral at Lima.., Valparaiso dates to the 17th ult. state that the whole Chilian and Peruvian coast was highly excited at the recent Spanish occupation oftt ie Chinoha Islands. The. Ministers of State and Finance of Chili were eompelled to resign on account of proposing a settlement of the diffi culties by diPlomacy, and new Ministers were appointed. The Chilian navy was being augmented. The frigate Chili was being armored. The principal forts are being fortified, and large subscriptions have been "add.ed to that of Congress to place the country on a war footing, and to aid Peru in resisting the Spanish invasion of American in dependence. The Peruvian works of defence and offence were rapidly going on. The naval vessels were being iron -clad, and "a monitor was soon to be launched. The people were unanimous in their determination to resist the Spanish aggres sions. Bolivia, Coltimbia, Equader and the Argentine Republic were also pruaiing 'to as sist Peru. • The cession of the lonian Islands to Greece had been'formally completed, amid greatienthu sienna.

The sue-, oess of this enterprise has exoeeded the expec tations of its most sanguine friends when it was first projected. Fairs had' become net longer a novelty, whilst those recently held in the large cities had realized suoli amounts as, it was thlght by some, would dampen the ardor and generous emulation of those who wished to make a similar effort here. But owing to the unspar ing labors of the various committees to whom the details were entrusted, and largely owing to the untiring efforts of the ladies in preparing ar ticles and perfecting arrangements in advance, and also to their unwearied services during the progress of the Fair, though so prolonged, an unanticipated auooess has been achieved. The gross receipts are more than $300,000; and when all outstanding dues have been collected, and remaining articles disposed of, the net re• seipts will undoubtedly exceed .that amount. We call the attention of those , interested to the advertisements in this week's paper, with refer ence to these final arrangements of the Pair.

The interest of the Church was at all times near his heart. He was peculiarly gifted , with a mild, gentle dia position,,aud his cheerful countenance; made. his company' at All times pleasant and agreeable. But although leading a life of great Usefulness in the church and community in Which .he lived, he was impressed with the idea that, he had a higher and nobler duty to perform; and when the call was made for three hundred thou sand more 'of our country's sons to come :to its resoue, he was among the first to take his place in the ranks, to battle for his country. it was the privilege of the writer to belong to the same company with the deceased, and he can testify to his many acts of kindness bestowed upon all around—passing sleepless nights in administer ing to the wants of the sick, and not forgetting at the same time to show that there is a power and a Divine reality in the religion of Jesus Christ , which he professed. Heenjoyed religiOn in camp to a remarkable degree, chiding gently his erring comrades ; and earnest prayers would ascend morning and evening from his `tent', for them. Possessed of :a fine voice, he often sang the beautiful hymns found in the soldiers book, 'and .one especially was dear to his heart:- "Nearer, my God, to thee, Nearer; to thee." : - The dear ones at - home .were notlforgotten.

With thin object before him, he advanced far in the study of Latin and Greek, and made himself acquaint ed with some of the higher branches of Acorn ing. Ent such was his impression of the,sel enmity ok ,the ministerial, office,.:that he shrunk from it tinder a sense of its overwhelming ,inag nitude anicresponsibility; He never ,entured the ministry; and for his 'failing to do so Ite , '•vrtis often heard to express regret, in after. fife..; lie. was a communicant in the, Protestant Episcopal Church, but entertained the most friendly re gards for the churches and Christians of all other evangelical denominations. Christian people, and especially Christian ministers, al ways received a cordial welcome to his house, and in their.company he took peculiar delight. His acquaintance with the Holy Scriptures was extensive and accurate, and in the humiliating doctrines of grace, as therein set forth, he was a firm believer. His last sicleness, which was protracted through several months, and very painful, be bore with Christian resignation. "lam a great sinner," he was wont to observe to those stand ing around him, " but a sinner saved by grace." His counsel and exhortations to his friends and neighbors, frequently at his bedside, were very impressive, and his parting blessing to his chil dren was truly affecting. Calling them around his dying bed, he placed ais emaciated band upon the head of his eldest son and said ; 4, Now to the great God who has made you, and from whom I received you, I npw deliver you up. I pray God that he may make you a faithful sol dier of the cross; and I solemnly beg that you will build on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ being the chief corner stone ; and that you will try to meet me in heaven." In the same solemn manner, and in similar, terms, he addressed each of his other '.children present. To his beloved wife he said: "You wilt soon follow me. Strive earnestly to meet me in heaven. Spend much- of your Lime on your knees." A few days after this, he calmly resigned his Spirit into' the hands of Jesus, and fell asleep, 'we trust, to awake to a glorious immortality. PROCEEDINGS .
