Mn. 1. WILLOUGHBY FOXALL.

This amiable and oxcellent young man was born
nt Walsall, Staffordshire, March '22, 1792, and
departed this life at the same place in the house of a
relative and friend.

This event was improved in an address to young
people at Wal,all Chapel, a short extract from which
may perhaps nut be unacceptable to our juveniht
readers

" And now, my dear young friends, cannot We
learn solite.import.int lesson at the totals of this our
departed brother? Shall it be said that be has died
in vain, or that the voice of Provideam has spoken
to ua in vain? His curly and unexpected.dttath has .
read :thatch in all your ears the affecting sentiment in
the text, All flesh is grass.' Yint are now in the
bloom of youth, in the prime ofyourdays, in all the
height of your pleasing unticiPations; btst See hew
death cuts down the fitirest flower that blossoms in
the family, and writes upon his coffin the melancholy
truth, • the glory of man is the flower of grass:
Now, then, whilst- you are. retired from the-fasci-
nating charms of time and sense, and at the grave of
your friend contensplatiag the oft-fat-gotten, the •
much neglected truth, the mortality of man; whitit
the scenes of death are familiar to yotif minds, let
us press home to you:. Lon.:cienee the importont
inquiry, What security have you fur the neat
hour? What grounds have you to expect that your
life, above all others, will be spared? Examine the
bills•of mortality, look at the ravages of deaths on •
every shawl, see the king of terrors seize in his
impartial grasp persons in the extremity of life, in
,the middle stage, and in the pride of youth. Let the
lolling bell, the yawning sepulchre, and the dreary
coffin speak the language they are designed to
speak, and from the grave, if from no other, let the
wise man be beard, ' Boast not thyself of to-morrow,'
&c. Oh ! foolish people and unwise,' to build
your everlasting all upon the rain expectatioi of to-
morrow; to suppose that death will always 'paw by
yourselves to strike your neighbour, when perhaps
the fatal arrow is now pointed ut your breasts whieh
must bring you to the dust. Whilst we tremble fur
your presumption we feel for your danger, and
breathe the spirit and the prayer of Moser, ' Oh,
that you were wise, that you understood these things,
that you would duly consider your latter end."
