DlED--On the l4th Jan, at the residence
of his mother in Saline county, JAMES w.
SMITH, Esq aged 35 years, son Of the late
Genl Thomas Smith.
His death has cast gloom over an exten.
sive circle of relations and host of friends
who loved and admired him for his thousand
noble and generous traits Of character, and
who bewail his loss with q bitterness and
depth of sorrow, which time alone can ale.
waite.
Kind and amiable by nature, the suavity and
gen,leness Of his manners and disposition,
formed after the model of his excellent and
accomplished Father, were only equalled by
the friendship and determination for which he
was known to be so remarka BILE.
Liberal and generous to q fault, he wus
ever regarded as the poor mans best friend
and the elegant hospi'ulties of his house were
extended with an equal hand to all, no matter
what their circumstances in life.
In all the manly sports. in horsemanshp
and in the chase he excelled, and though pos.
sessed of all the winning qualities which we
admire, he was nevertheless free from every
vice which usually besets the sociable and
companionable. He was temperate to the
almost extreme and religiously avoided every
species of play.
HIS excellent and venerable parent who
still survives and who feels so keenly the loss
of him to whom she had looked as the staff
and comfort of her declining age, will take
consolation when she reflects on The many no.
BILE qualities which adorned his character
while living, and now that he is gone will
shine yet more cOnspicuously. as bright ex.
amples for the imitati on of those who survive
him. Truly
"Ths earth which bears him dead,
Bears not alivea nobler gentleman"
