OBITUARY..

Providence has kindly allowed us, under its most
affecting dispensatons, some balm to asSuage the an
guIsh of distressed heart and to mi, ate the pois
nancy of laceratcd feelings When old age has bent
the limbs ami silvered the head; VIXEN the blood runs
sluggishly through the veins and the senses become
biunted and when the wheels Of existence through the
exhaustion of nature become closged and at last stand
still we are disposedto console ourselves with the
Election, that the departed has escapedirom troubles
cares which i'll suited his time of life. and which his
age could neither support nor buHct.-and We think
that he has fallen.
"like Autumn fruit that mellow long.
Fen wondered AT, because he fell no sooner"
Even When the chilling hand Of the destroyer is laid
upon the young, not left destitute OF co"sui-
ing reflections. Though the stroke is heavier upon
surviving friends, and the blow seems aimed with more
than common violence, our attention cannot but be
directed TO the wise purposes of just GOD, whose
plans are all fashioned in wisdOm and intended Tor
our alyantage-''for they sicken and for us they
die" Though the flower has been npt in the bud,
we know that il has been removed from tile storms
which will asss roughly; and though fond hopes
AMI anxious expectations may be blasted. we should
reflect that noe the and malice OF the world
can nj, these hopes and expectations which We
SO often see feariully disappointed.
These feelings with pIoprety be INDUCED upon
the dealt; of JOHN WEST MOORE. 1t was the
pleasure of the Author of Life, to make his soourn
among but shor, and he had not yet ripened INTO
manhood when he was summoned to another, and w.
sgt happier word. 1t may with truth be said OF
Gim that ose ,rho knep him best, toued him 5es ii's
friends will long remember the warmth and generosity
of his heart, and the strength and constancy OF ms
| friendship. The esteem N which he was universally
held, evinced by the soiIcItude with when the
progress of the disease which terminated his he was
watched and the sorrow exhibtedwhe,i his death was
announced. Indeed his heart and disposition were
such AS endeared him TO all and parI ularly to MS
young companions. His time among us was rot long
enough fully to expand his virtues and extend hIs
sphere Of usefulness-but the opening OF life gave
the most encouraging hopes. Many of those estma
Bile qualities, which memory now SO fondly delight:
to linger upon, possessed by him in an eminent
degree, AMI will not soon be forgotten.
| An eulogv of the deceased is not intended but ono
who knew and loved him well could not refrain from
paying this tribute to his memory, which will always
| be cherished with affection D.
