o Ii L Il U AR " .

DANIEL W. RAGSDLE died of dropsy ST the
chest at his residence in this city, the night OF
the 25th of May last, after several months of the
most painful af1iction. The deceased was born
in the State of North Carolina on the 9TH day OF
February, A. D. 1871, and removed to this State
about the year 1920.
His early life was attended only, by those com
mon advantages for mental and moral training,
which within the reach Of almost every Amer
lean youth.
He commenced in the world an orphan boy,
with only those aids to success, which integrity
and business capacity gave him; and early saw
the value of time and the effect of well directed
continuous effort. Amid the cares of an active
business life, he always found leisure and inclna-
ton to cultivate and improve his mind. He new
er aspred to any place of political preferment but
derived great pleasure, from reading the best au-
thbrs and in the acquisition of the varied stores of
knowledge which ornamented his character. He
was equally fortunate, in that other and more diff
fcult department. The most f1atterng success
crowned his life of honest toll, and at the end of
his journey, the pleasing reflection his, that
his labor had rendered his wife and children indie
pendent, and placed them beyond the contingent
ces of want or penury.
While the reward of his industry is q beautiful
commentary upon the character of our happy form
of government, which throws wide open to all, the
door of success and bids toiling merit enter wheth-
er hailing from a howell or a palace it, at the
same time offers strong incentive to the honest
youths of the country Ito go and do likewise, %
encouraging them to feel, that that fortunate re-
suit will attend their efforts.
In the bereavement of this family and in his
absence from the loved and familiar scenes, we
realize the effect of that fearful fat 'dust thou
art and unto dust thou shalt return The ways
of providence are mysterious and ''past our finding
out" His dspensation has clothed the heart Of
the widow and orphan in sorrows sable robe,
while it confines the husband and the father in the
gloomy charnel-house of death.
The friend who writes this hasty sketch, fondly
hopes, that in his affection, the bereaved may read
the lessons of wisdom, and from it learn to prac
tice perfect resignation to the will of that being
t'who doeth all things WELL
Human life at best is but vapor, span, a
pilgrimage through lonely vale of tears. Dan
iel W. Ragsdae has passed that vale. His trem-
bling footsteps have taken hold upon death. His
warm heart, the home of the kindest emo
tons. Peace to his ashes, and christian resigna-
ton to those who mourn his loss. j.

Spiritual Recognition.

\ little girl Of my acquaintance, a lovely and
precious child lost her mother at an early age too
early to fix the loved features in her remembrance.
She frail as beautiful and the bud of
her heart unfolded it seemed as if won by that
mothers prayers to turn instinctively heavenward.
The sweet conscientious and prayer-loying child
was the idol of the bereaved family. But she fla
ded away early. She would lie in the lap of a
friend who took mothers care of her, and wind
ing one wasted arm about her neck would say,
Now tell me about my mamma :? And when
the oft-told tale had been repeated, would ask
softly, take into the parlor-I want to see
my mamma The request was never refused ];
and the affectdnate child would lie for hours, con-
tentedIy gazing upon her mothers portrait. But
'Pale and wan she grew, and weakly
Bearing all her pains SO meekly,
That to them she still grew dearer,
As the trial hour grew nearer :"
The hour came at last, and the weeping neigh
bors assembled 10 see the child die. The dew of
death was already the fowret, and its life sun
was already going down. The little chest heaved
faintly-spasmodically
DO you know me, darling?' sobbed close in
her ear the voice that was dearest but awoke no
answer.
All at once brightness, if from the other
world, burst the childs colorless countenance
The eyelids flashed open, the lips parted, the wan
cuddling hands flew up, in the little ones last i'm
pulsve effort, she looked percingly into the far
above.
'MotherP she cried with surprise and transport
in her tone-and passed with that breath into her
mothers arms.
Said distinguished divine, who stood by that
bed of joyous death:
IF | had never believed in the ministration of
of departed before, l could not doubt it
now ?
Peace 1 leave with you, said the wisest spirit
that ever passed from earth to heaven. Let US
be at peace amid the spirit mysteries and ques-
tonings on which His eyes shall soon shed the
light of eternity.-Notional Era.
