LAMEsrED DEArH.-Rarely have we heard
with so deep emotion the death of one with whom
we had but the alightsst personal acquaintance as
when the tidings reached Of the decease, on the
5th inst, of Mrs JULIA II. SCOTT at Towanda,
Pa, in the 33d year Of her age.
Mrs Scot, formerly julia IL kinney,) was
born in Sheshequin, Bradford Co., Pa, and re-
moved 20 Towanda (thc County town. on her
marriage with DR.. David Scott of that place, some
! seven years ago Before that time, she had be-
come widely known valued contributor, both
in prose and verse; TO the periodicals of the day.
She wrote more considerably for the Religious
magazines und Journals Of her own order (Univer-
snlst) of which she eminent and deeply
beloved member, and whose faith has been COM
mended by her writings to very many hearts.
Without possessing remarkable powers of fancy or
dcncation and avoiding wholly ;hc portrayal or
excitement Of the slcrner passions hor writings
widely priced for their purity and sweetness,
and the sentiment of gentle yc, fcrventpie where
with they were rradintcd Mrs. Scott was curly
and largely contributor during its existence, to
our Ncw-Y Yorker and some extent to other
purely Literary period icals.
Her disease was Consumption, involving
general prosraton of her physical energies, against
which professional skill avacd nothing She
spent the last summer the Virginia Springs, in
the vain hope of arrestag its progress, and was to
have passed the coming season on Long Island
had she lived. 1t was happily allowed her to die
amsne her kindred. she leaves adoubly bcrcarod
husband and one surviving child to dcplorc the de
parturc from earth of one of the nobest and.
purest Of those spirits who have ilumined its path
wayS-so radiant and blcst in thoir prcsence--so
drcarv and rugged when they have left US for ever
OJ' Leo has seat u caustic and powerful
reply to the structures of the american, which
we have decided not to publish, from dislike to
personal controversy. Leo had the first word
and can well afford to quit where he is.
