OBITUARY.

Deacon NICHOLAS BAYLIEs, the subject of the
following obituary notice, was born in Uxbridge,
Nov. Is, 1889, and died Jan. 49, 1881, aged 81
years. As he was a man of more than common
natural endowments, of sound Judgment, retentive
memory, and of stern integrity, he was much re
spected by all who knew him. As he was polite in
his manners, and kind and friendly in his DISPOSE
ton, he was universally beloved.
AS God made him acquainted with the deep de-
pravty Of his heart, aud renewed him in the spirit
of his mind, he, in the year 1863, embraced a cru
cited Jusus, as his only hope. In the same year,
he made public profession of his faith and united
himself with the church. In the year 1888, he was
chosen to the Office of Deacon, which he filled with
honor for 48 years. He was member of the Con-
vention which formed the Constitution ofthis Com
monweath. He was remarkably temperate for
more than 60 years he did not taste of ardent spirit
He was friend to the needy and afflicted not on
ly in word, but in deed. He was peace maker,
and lover of hospitality. | never knew man
that was so universally spoken well of. He was
truly benevolent, for he felt for the great human
family and took deep interest in the various be-
neyolent enterprises of the day. and for their pro-
motion literally and cheerfully contributed of his
world substance. He was a strict observer of
the Sabbath, and constant attendant upon the
public worship of God. He was man of reading,
reflection and prayer. In his last sickness, which
was short and distressing he was patient, resigned
to the will of God and trusted not in his own
works but in the Lord Jesus Christ for acceptance
with God and eternal life. As he lived the life of
the righteous, his last end was like his peaceful and
happy. He has gone to the grave like as a shock
of corn cometh in, in his season. He has left a
widow, and numerous posterity to mourn his loss
children, 60 grandchildren, and 80 great-grand-
children

BEWARE OF AN IMPosTER. Not long since
there passed up the valley of the Connecticut
River, the shape of a man, who said his name
was Daniel Hewett; and that his object was
the collection of materials for work published
by him, called "The Universal Traveller -
He proved TO be /" universal" scoundrel; for
in Dummerston, he so wrought on the heart of
a young, uususpecting woman, as to induce her
to follow him to Windsor, with the expecta-
ton of being married to him. From thence he
conveyed her in the stage to Boston, where he
confessed that he had wife in New York.
fattered her with the promise of placing her in
a highly advantageous situation TO attend
school in New York; and sent her forward to
that city In the steam boat while he tarricd
some ten or fifteen days in Boston An entire
stranger in the place, she still found herself
deceived. Instead of the splendid well furnish
ed apartment promised, her habtation was
garret, and her liberty the rigid guardianship
OF female overseer. The return of Hewett,
and the change in his language and manner,
opened her eyes to all the perils Of her conGi-
ton. He now displayed the fend, using the
most profane and abusive language, brandlsh-
ing dirk, to induce her to accompany him to
New Orleans But providence interposed for
her rescue. She was taken with the small pox,
and barely survived it; and while he was fiat
tering himself that he was still sure of his prey
the indignant father reached the place of her
secusion, and wrested his daughter from the
fangs of the viper--a warning to other females
to be on their guaro with strangers and to
look for something more IN mGn than fantas-
tic airs, dandy dress e. the fourishing ola cane.
