OBITUARY.-Dr THOMAS F. SARGENT, Min
lister of the Methodist Episcopal Church, died OF
apoplexy, on Sunday evening, 29th December,
under circumstances the most impressive and
affecting. The Doctor complained of some in
disposition through the day, but attended divine
service, and heard preaching in the morning at
10 o'clock; and took little or no dinner, ate
light supper, and went to Wesley Chapel 10
preach at P. NJ; was observed to read ana
pray with some dullness, for him. Read tor his

face; the last period, which he finished with
difficulty was, Where much as glre1l, n,uch p1H

helped him to his seat AT that instant ne lost
his consciousness He was Immediately taken
10 the dwelling of Mr.. William Nef, where me-
dical aid was applied, but in vain. He died IN
less than an hour. His wife and part OF the ia
mily reached his room before he expired. Or.
Sargent was a man Of high standing, both as a
physician and minister.
Population, Produce, &c. OF the Vest indo
IsIands.-It appears from official documents
that the population of the West India Islands,
subject to great Britain, consists OF H. 400 whites,
1880 colored free, and 692, 700 slaves, the an
nual produce 3,sl6,0OO cwt of sugar, 1873
500 lbs of coffee and 7,sOs, 900 gallons of rum.
The exports to Great Britain amount in value
10 s6O3,OOO lbs and the imports in return to
4.O25,OO0 lbs. The shipping employed IN this
immense trade amounts to 264, 700 tons.
Dean Cowper, of Durham, was very saving
of his wine; and descanting one day upon the
extraordinary performances of man who was
blind he remarked that "the poor fellow could
see no more than that bottle" 81 don't wonder
