COMMUNICATED.
"And is she has death his arrow sped
Is young ELIZA NUMBERED with the dead !"

= is young ELIZA nuHlDefu u WIN tnc ueau
Yes--the Young, the beautiful, the affectionate ELlZ
HIGGINS, sleeps to wake more in time She departed
in the 2st year her age at her mothers residence
ST. Georges, Saturday morning last, after illness o
little than week-a sad memorial of the Mnness Of
that pa ton which separates between time and eternity
In this and Distressing providence voice heard
from the other world will the Messenger be obeyed
by some, if not all who hear it oh will ii not teach the
gay and the young and the blooming that death pays nc
respect will it not teach the serious and plous
that admont and eryent prayer necessary their
part Who bade farer for long life than she who is
prey devourng wormsf And yet her lovely counte-
nance is destroyed and removed! My young friends,
you by her sudden caby the shorness of life, and
dreadful uncertainty of preparation when left to late
riodofthe awful danger of procrastnatio and beseec
you by all that is desirable in heaven and dreadful in hell
take the alarm What will all things else profit us we
lose our souls Flee to Jesus-gve up the world before
gives up you-seek the Lord while he may be found
and learn with equal ease TO sleep or die.
Could wbte.robed innocence-could the most amiable
death, ELIZA had not been numbered with his victims
Could the universal of her fond associates have had
any influence, the unrelentng monsters hand would have
been arrested he struck the blow Could the tears OF
aged fond mother bending over the expiring form OF
her youngest daugheror those OF the aeconate broth
es and devoted sisters have prolonged her life she had
still dwelt under the paerna roof But ah how inefec
tua ALL to lengten thy span procure reprleve from
death The death of ELIZA reminds US Of the beautiful
lines of Hervey, a similar occasion
How lov'd how valued once, avails thee not
To whom related, by whom begot
A heap of dust alone remains of thee;
IT'S all THOU art and all the proud shall be.

1t appears ,ha, much rain has fallen to the north
while this section Of the country is in parchne
situation, AS an evidence of the great drough, and
low waters, we may mention the TACT that the ten
valuable mills Gwynn's Falls, do not average
more than 18 bbls -four per day each, although
in ordinary times they make from 80 to 100 bbls
per day. The falling off on Jones' Falls, we learn
is almost the same, will appear from The inspec-

all told on the wharvcs, and about 200 bbls OF How

LATEST FROM COLOMBIh.-By the

days from Laguira, we have received papers to the
10Th, and private advices the 18th August inclu

luton Of Paez is still progressing, and there is a
probability that the government will be compelled
TO adopt prematurey the Federatiyc system as die
tated by its partisans:
"LAGUIRA, 18th Aug, 1896
To the Editor Of the Baltimore Gazette.
SIR-Since ! last wrote you per Allsanna,
nothing new has transpired in this place. The
Colombian schooner Independents, arrived here
this morning in two days from Porto Cabello, with
the news of Maracaibo and Carthagena having
openly clared in favor of the Federative system,
as wished for by Paez: it is therefore supposed by
many that the government at Bogota will now see
the necessity OF adopting the measure.

From &C DEvoTIoSAL VERSES" by Bernard Barton
Once more, loved soace of my lonely hours
Would renew my intercourse with thee;
Suspended for time-whie Springs gay flowers,
Her bursting foliage, and her songs uf glee,
Allured me from my task, TO budding bowers,
To shady lane, green copse or blossom'd lea;---
In the fond hope-but not more fond than vain,
Their charms might lend fresh vigour to my strain.
Mistaken thought! to me shall come no more
The once bright impulse of verna day;
Nor can fair Natures countless charms restore
AOght of Coz genial freshness my lay;
The sanguine flush OF youths bright morn is DER.
The alry dreams of fancy pass'd away -
And were they still my own, they could not lend
One living charm, with Thy deep truths to blend.
Not that darkly view, OF lightly prize
Tue beauties and the harmonies of Spring;
Yet Is there what green earth, nor laughing skies,
Nor blooming how ers, song of birds can bring
Over he spirit hid from human eyes
Deep in tie heart like far hoer thing
THAI outward Natures richest stores can Weld,
The foun OF thought and feeling is unsealed
AMI he who writes of themes which must endure
When times ard seasons shall have run their course,
Whose song is Truth, uncIargeable and sure,
II he Alright would feel its ruest force
Must drunk of springs unpe,ishing and pure,
Which Issue from deeper, heller source,
Looking beyond the fading things of time
~ t;,ose which eternal and sublime
o. may now, with no msgving dread
Resume the task OF many winter night.
Nv dc EN- devotions purer influence fed
Because no l. ly-ai,swering food of light
From Springs young glory my soul is shed
Tie Just shall walk by faith and not by sight.
And he who seeks to Frame heavenly song
In ough conscious weakness may be RENDERED strong
Strong the might and sire 9Th of Him. alone,
Whose spiri down he vale of vision swept,
Villa time the seer heht ID around him strown
Bones dry and feless which in silence slept:
These, a. the word divine. His power made known,
And on their feet a living army eapt.
So may the Spirit he vouchsafes to raise,
Revive us from the dead TO sing his praise.
