DEATHS.

Departed this life, on Friday night, March 18th, in
the iih year of his age, EDMUND WHSLE, Esq., OF
the town Of Farmville Mr.. Wilsie was born in Dutch
ess county, New York, removed to Richmond when
youn., and lived some time with Mr. Advances; from
n, nee he removed 10 Cartsrsvil1ea and commenced bu-
s!ness, married a daughter Of Mr.. John %Flippins, of
Cumberland county, and about the year 1888 moved 10
Famvilie Mr.. Wlisic's death was sudden and unoI-
pected, from a violent attack Of fever, which settled on
Inc brain, and which bafled the best medical skill. lie
has left an afectionate wife, six young children, and a
large circle of friends, To mourn their loss. In the
short space Of eight days the lamp Of life was sytiL-
guished, which should enforce upon the mind Of the
reader tie admonition, sset thy house In order"
Died, al his residence, In the county OF Goochland,
on the morning Of the 4th March, SAMUEL FINCH,
in the 10th year Of his age. Just and honorable In all
his dealings with men, no reproachful recollection fol-
lows him In the grave. He left no injuries done to
others behind him which n good name requires 10 DO
efaced. Without the means Of ostentation, his acts Of
kniness were greater than those Of many who lack no
iump-ters; and, although he was imperfect, as the best
Of morta.s are. the heart OF everv one who knew him
EEL, throbs with sorrow that he is gone; and those who
ji the devotedness Of his friendship will pay the tri-
oa;e Of many a tear 10 his memory. Sudden as was
The summons; short az was the time allowed for him,
siser 1t was made, to get ready; and severe a. was his
disease. his friends have the consolation OF rejecting,
thai he gave evidence, amidst the crumbling Of his
earthly tabernacle, that he was trying, through faith In
Jesus, TO meet his God 10 judgment.

On motion of MIR. Anterior, the Senate took

Mr.. Webster being entitled to the floor, ad-
