wv ARE IN DEATH None possessed great
or vioor of constitution, or enjoyed more per-
foot health than Mrs. P.~to the time Of her
lsst illness. But the silent grave has taken
possession moss Of all, whilst the invalid who was
ppf,en tempted TO envy her the bloom that man
,lad her cheek, and admired the elastic vieor
&c her movements, is still in our midst, thread
inc. as he has done for years, the verge OF the
sepulchre.- ~
Mrs P. was native Of Halifax, co. Va.
Al The tender age Of fifteen she became eminent
Nv nious. and connected herself with the Pres
byterian Church. Her whole life was charac-
,erized bv the constant practice Of those chris
tian virtues and duties, which elevate ana Te-
fine the feelings; and lead to the rational con-
temptation and practice OF everything connec-e
ted with the religion Of the Cross. Her taitnS
in the l-sufficiency of the atonement made
for sinners, enabled her to lay fast hold on the
promises Of the Gospel, and look beyond this
world for permanent happiness. From the
commencement of her illness She abandoned the
hope of recovering, and strove with all her en-
ergies to wean her thoughts from every earth.
" tie. Under bodily sufferings OF unusual vi
olence she was calm and composed. Rell-
cious conversation, reading of the sacred
Scriptures, prayer, and singing Of Hymns. gave
her infinite delight, and contributed largely 10
the formation Of that calm and serene state of
mind, that SO eminen,ly characterized her last
moments, and placed the downy pillow Of hops
under her dying head.
Her venerable father, her fond husband, her
dear children and kind friends, she conn ended
to the infinite mercies and ample protection of
her heavenly father. Then with the hrmness
of martyr she entered upon the dark valley
and shadow of death, leaning upon the arm Of
that Saviour to whom she had devoted herself
in early youth, and to whom she proved faithful
till the end.

On the evening of the 25th June,
the House of Lords passed the corn

At2 o'clock on the morning of the

Sir Robert Peel in his speech when
resigning as Premier, devoted an hour
to the subject of,he Oregon and Mex
lean questions with reference to the U.
States; and congratulated the country
that all sources of difficulty with that
great nation were settled. So far as

THE CONSERVATIVE.
A SKETCH.

SKETCH.
She was most beautiful from off her brow,
Stainless and pure as the untrodden snow,
Her ringets glstened in an even flow,
Like the dark waves Of ocean in the night,
When the full moon illumines with its light
The dashing sparkles, dancing with delight.
Her eye, her soul-expressive. loving eye
Was the embodiment of perfect purity
And near her, ever, you would feel truth nigh.
The very FIRST and earnest given glance
Into that winsome, fond yet pensive face,
At once instilIed sentiment Of grace,
The mind in vain attempts to justly trace.
The very fount Of sweetness had its rest
Within her vuice, which, as it rose caress'd
BY ruby lips--at times compressed,
As though they would detain it--a strain
Was heard on earth, such as we would retain,
Or with attention strive to catch again,
With sorrow that it could not cen remain.
At times, thought she could not be Of earth
Her mind. at leas, owned an immortal birth
And sent forth gems of most intrinsic worth,
She seemed q woman free from every art,
One, God had placed from earthly sin apart,
serene light, amid the worlds gay mart,
A human heng with an angels heart
So good, so beautiful and yet she pinned away
As sunlight in the west at close Of day,
More -ovely growing, each expiring ray.
She was her mothers hope-her fathers pride,
More loved and cherished than the world besides
And there was one 10 claim her o a bride,
Who would for her most willingly have died.
The death spot shone, in mockery of health,
On either cheek; affections ties, nor wealth
Could stay it in its murdcrous stealth.
Marked for the grave-already marked to die!
Love would have kept on earth such purity,
But greater love--the love that lives on high,
Won the sweet spirit for eternity.

beyond doubt. And not only is it the most

By way Of explaining the soundness of this

We will here state that the surface of the human
body is q succession of respiratory tubes SO min
ute as to be imperceptible to the naked eye, but
when examined with microscope are readily per-

The learned Wilson counted the perspiratory
tubes on the palm of the hand, and found ,253
in q square inch, each Of them having an append
cd gland which extends throughout the system.
II is by this means that the powerful health re.
storing properties Of the HEBREW PLASTER are
manifested; its vistues entering those tubes, are
Immediately transmitted to every part Of the hui
man body; thus exerting specific influence over
every part Of the system. These singular facts
will serve to explain the nodus operandi by which
