"The Cholera has been prevailing in this
county for the last two weeks. We have had
probably in the town (Chafleston) and Salt

Occasionally a subject Of the disease has wan

continued to enjoy, as they do now enjoy. as ex-
cellent health as was ever their lot, and every
thing around denotes healthful state OF the at.

OF Providence, undergo no change for the worse.

DIED.

At Bridgetown. in the leland OF Barbadoes. %
the 18th day Of June last Mrs MARoAREr
DoueLAss GREooar, wife of Mr.. William Gre.
CORY, Of this place
Seldom has il fallen to our lot 10 record the
depaature Of more genuine worth. Endowed by
nature with an excellent mind and benevolent
heart, she endeared herself in a remarkable man.
ner to all her relatives and Acquaintance; and
adding 10 her many winning attractions the shin.
ing but unobtrusive graces OF the Christian Rel.
eon, she became an ornament to the Church Of
which she was a member, and enjoyed, in high
degree. its affectionate confidence. Her religion
was deep thing of the soul, which found It's
home in the empire of serious reflection. and took
fast hold on all the springs Of moral action In
health and prosperity, it was the source of cheer
full hope-in the day If affection, it was produc.
tive Of the richest fruits of pous resignation--and
on all occasions it appeared to be wel.spring of
purity, which flowed with love to God and g good
will toward men," Every interview which the
writer of this humble memorial enjoyed with her,
during her last illness. served more deeply to
convince his mind that the hope Of the Gospel is
:. like an anchor to the soul, both sure and stead
fast"--and it was by no means unexpected to re.
ceive the mournful intelligence OF her departure,
blended with the consol,ng information that her
end was peace. 1t ia pleasure to record one OF
her dying expressions--and it will serve to show
that our estimate of her religious character is not
too high. When the last CLEANS Of thought were
streaming from her expiring eve. and the light of
Gods reconciled countenance was beaming upon
her soul, she was heard to exclaim, Z" Oh the pre-
cious robe of the Saviour's righteousness, which
he has wrought out for u.s." That celestial robe
she seemed to grasp with the strong hand OF faith.
and folded il around her, as her spirit lifted its
wing for immortality.
Ia this brief memorial of the deceased we have
followed our inclinatiuns, and spoken chiefly Of
her religious character. What she was as
daughter and sister-what she was as the mother
Of her now mothrrless children--and especially
what she was to one in the nearest and dearest OF
all earthly reationships--ae shall not attempt to
describe. such mourners eau only hnd consola-
ton in the assurance that their loss has been her
unspeakable gain. and ~ the sustaining promises
of that Con whose very voice Of aiilicton Is but
