His dress has something of that vulgar

wherever be can get small game, are his

Died in Rodney, oa the 10Th inst. Mrs.
LYDIA o. CARorHERs, wife Of Mr.. Thomas
Carothers, Of this town.
No fervor Of eulogy will enhance the of.
fectionate regard with which the memory of
this amiable and interesting lady will be
cherished In life, obedient to the calls of
duty, and faithful to the obligations of
friendship and affection, she has left an en- |
during record Of her virtues and worth in
the hearts of all who knew her. although
dead. she yet speaketh"- her example
in life, and triumph in death, ought not to
be forgotten.
The circumstances of her departure; the
agony of bidding long farewell to those
she loved; the pain of sundering natures
dearest and most cherished ties; the noble
fortitude with which she endured the physic-
oil agony Of dissolution; the heroism which
bore her triumphantly through the darkest
scenes of deaths dark valley, and the high
hopes and noble aspirations with which she
looked beyond the tomb, upon the realities
ofthe eternal world, gave testimony of the
value Of the christians hope and of reli-
gion's unfailing support in that hour when
earth, and all its hopes, fail and fade away
1t was religion and its consultations, its
support and its succor, which made the
death bed Of our departed friend scene Of
triumph and exuItation; and which enabled
her, amid the pangs of dissolving nature,
and in full view of her final account, to ex-
claim, sis this death?' and, although 10th to
leave behind her the dearest of all earthly
friends, to say in tones of quiet and confding
resignation, ssfarewell husband, farewell sis.
tiers, farewell alI!''
In health we are prone to forget God
While baskipg in the warm sunshine of his
providence, while every wish and desire is
gratified, and the heart is beating high with
searth's warmest hopes, we forget that all is
the fruit of his unmerited goodness,-and
dare not remember that day is coming
when "fesh and heart shall fail;' when
sorro, and blight shall take the place Of
joy and gladness, and when earth and all its
promises and all It's supports, shall fail to
satisfy or 10 sustain US.
But this is not the part of wisdom; this is
not the course becoming accountable ano
immortal beings; this is not the course to
make the death bed a scene of calm resig
nation, or exulting triumph and sustaining
hope. If we would die the death of the
righteous-if we would enjoy his consolation
in life and in death, and his crown beyond
the tomb, we should give to duty and t.
God our best energies, and our constant ant
-unwavering devotion.
The friends Of the deceased know tina
she proved the worth of religion in life, ant
they confidently hope that she has entere
.upon its eternal and glorious rewards.

Southern christians come up in crowds to the
North. We meet them every where, in our stages
and steamboats,, in the private circle and public
assembly We 60 in company with them to the
house of God, and unite with them in the various
benevolent operations of the day. Thus oppor-
unties are continually occurring for efficient eff
fort to bring them to repentance for their sim
While all other suitable methods, many of which
will readily occur, are not to be neglected, it is
chiefly to the different ecclesiastical organizations
of the North, that we must look as the most eff
fective mediums through which our condemnation
of slavery shall be expressed. These represent
large masses of christians, and they are we'll known
at the South. Their opinions therefore, it may
fairly be presumed, will be received with respect,
and their faithful pungent appeals to the conscien-
ces and hearts of their Southern fellow christians,
cannot fail to produce salutary effect. Indeed,
as might naturally be expected, the inquiry is Of
ten raised at the South, if Slavery is in fact such
an enorn.ity in the sight of God, why do not the
good men of the North, who are in circumstances
peculiarly favorable to form correct judgment in
the matter tell US so and in tones BETTING their
convictions reprove us for our sin.
Admitting the obligation to be in some degree
felt, vet, from the nature of the case, bold and
decided action on the part of the Southern chur-
