In Pitts6eld, Aug, 22d, Penuel Child, Esq, in

The subject of this short obituary was born at
/ Woodstock, CT. May 7th, 1857. At very car!y
period in the American Revolution he was called
into active, and perlous service in the defence of
his country, where he remained for most of the
| time, during that eyentfui period, and although
young in years, his intrepidiy of mind, and en-
gagedness in the cause of Liberty and indepen-
dence was such, as 10 point him out a subject
Of deserved promotion. In the fall Of 1897 he
with his family removed 10 Brandon, in Yer
mont, here he was soon called to take decided
lead in the of the town, by being elected
to till the most responsible Offices and places of
trust, and perhaps to have done more business as
Justice of the Peace during 81 years, than any
other man in said town. He was member q
the Legislature i'll this State for quite series o.
years. in 1917, lie united with the Consrcga-
liona Church in Brandon, and continued mem
Der during his protracted life. Afrer removing IL
Pittsfeld 1899, (where he closed his earthly
exlstence,) he was gricvously afflicted with dig
order ia the head aud eyes, which depriv ed him
entirely oil Inenta! vision for ihe last three years
of his life, and was the ultimate cause of the d.,
solution of his mortal body.
He fell asleep IN death, without struggle or
groan. Notwithstanding his severe and distress
ing affection, the calmn, S. the composure, and
resignation with which he bore with truly CMis-
ian foritrtde and patience ought not to 60 unre
corded.
The funeral was attended by numerous con
conrse of people, and his remains followed by
large circle of relatives and friends, to the house
appropriated for all living, a very appropriate
and pathetic discourse was delivered to solemn
audience by The Rev. Abbot, from Rev xiv, ID.

TExAs.-We wish to call the atten-
ton of our readers to the following ar
ticle. Shall Texas with all her slave
population be annexed to the U. States,
and the balance of power thus be given
to shareholders TO control not only their
own affairs but those Of the general gov
eminent, until the whole North shall bow
down to their Juggernaut and worship at
its shrine and the sun Of our Republic
go down in blood! Let every Abolition
ist li( his voice against such union, ere
it be to late.
JUDGE JAY, in private letter thus
writes:
"Our strength lies in a rigid adher-
ance to our principles. The CHURCH,
the great buIwark of slavery, is shaken,
