In Boston, Sept 80, of typhus fever, after
an illness of five days, MIR Henry S. SMITH,
aged 90 ycurs aud II months, son Of Stephen
and Cynthia Smith, of Luncnburgh, VT
While giving publity Of his departure from
this to the spirit world, justice TO his worth
demands more than barely passing notice -
He was young man of unusually steady hab.
It's, possessing mild and amiablc disposition
which rendered him an object of the esteem
and respect OF all who knew HIM but alas
he has gone the way Of all the earlh, with
scarcely any prcmoniton, that death was so
near. 1t was his doom, in the wise ProVl'
dcnce of Almighty Cod TO sckcn, languish
and die far from home, and his dear kindred
We learn, however, that in his expiring mo.
mcnto he was perfectly calm and composed
and died without struggle. He has left be-
hind him two brothers and two sisters, and II
numerous circle of relatives and friends who
deeply feel their loss. His remains were con.
vcycd to Isuncnburgh and deposited in the
grave beside his father and mother, there to
rest till the morning ofthc resurrection
"Peaceful be thy silent slumbers,
Peaceful in the grave so low;
Thou no more shall join our numbers,
Thou no more our songs shall know
May God sanctify this instance Of mortality,
to the young, for it is evidently season of his
special visitation to those in the morning of
life: their ranks are thinning daily and whose
turn it may be next God alone knows. The
command is prepare to meet thy God

Nothing but Folly goes f4ithless and fearful;
Courage forever is happy and wise
All for the best-if man would but know IL ;
Providence wishes us all TO be blest
This is no dream Of the pundit or poet
Heaven is gracious, and-All's for the best
All for the best set this on your standard,
Soldier Of sadness, OF pilgrim of love,
Who TO the shores Of Despair may have wan

All for the best be man but conhding,
Providence tenderly governs the rest,
And the frail bark Of His creature is guiding.
Wisely and wariIy, all for the best.
All for the best then fling away terrors.
Meet all your fears and your foes in the van,
Ind in the midst Of your dangers or errors
Trust like child, while you strive like a

And by both wisdom and mercy surrounded,
