OBITUARY..

Died, at her residence, near St. Clairsvillc,
Ohio, Mrs. Isabella Sidu,H, aged about 60.
1t is seldom that we are called to part with
one so universally beloved as the subject of
this notice. Her many virtues, her quiet,
exemplary life, had cndeared her to the hearts
of all. She has been for many years the
subject Of severe bodily afllction, yet her
cheertuness, her patient endurance under
suffering never forsook her; and in acts of
kindness and benevolence, in ministering to
the wants Of the destitute ana speaking COM
fort to the afflicted, she apparently forgot her
own sulrerings. As friend and neighhor,
and in the various relations Of domestic life,
she had few equals; but above all she was an
humble follower of ''the meek and lowly Jc-
sus," She has been for many years mem-
Der of the Society of Friends, and her life
ever adorned the religion which she professed.
That Saviour who had been her support in
allliction did not desert her in the hour OF
Death, but trusting in his promises she sweet
ly fell asleep. May her afflicted friends meet
her in that land where partings are no more.
A TRIBUTE TO DEPARTED WORTH.
The golden bowl is broken the ransomcd soul hath
flown
Far from world Of sorrow, where sickness is un-
known.
Her glad enfranchsed spirit, now in a world Of icy,
Basks in the light OF Heaven--drinks bliss without
alloy.
No that form Of suffering, shall feel the touch
of pain;
Sorrow and care shall never revisit her again;
But scenes of heavenly beauty and rapturous lhots
of bliss
Shall dry each tear of sorrow, shed in world like
this,
Then shull we mourn her absence, or grieve that
God hath smiled
In plying care and love upon his weary stricken
child2
That from life Of suffering her spiit is called home
10 share the bliss Of heaven, and never thence to
roaml
All, no! 'twere wrong to cherish rebellion when we
know
Her glad and happy spirit is free from every woe;
And though our hearts arc stricken, and griefs our
bosons swell,
How cheering ia the prcmisc~-'hs doe'h all things

BUrfALo, May 90.

| A terrible gale prevailed on Lake Erie yes
terday. The brig Andre, from Chicago, with

The propeller st. Joseph and steamer L.

Cleveland. A fishing vessel was copsized of
Cleveland, and three persons were drowned.
The captain Of the brig Montezuma reports
passing vessel capsized, abd thecrcw cling
ing to the wreck. Owing to heavy sea at
the time, he was unable to ,render them eny

Several other vessels ard reported ashore

hended that serious damage has cnsued.

RELlGIoUs LlBERTY-.DoCa ,vh n.-A
Roman Catholic paper, called the Rambler,
says:
"Religious liberty, in the sense of liberty
possessed by every man to choose his religion,
is one of the most wicked delusions ev loist-
ed upon this age by the father of all deceit.
The very name Of HJerty-except in the sense
of permission to do certain definite acts
ought 10 be LaaiShed from the domain Of reli-
Gioa 1t is neither more nor less
than falsehood, No man has right 10 choose
his religion. None but an athe-
list can uphold the principles of religious lib
erty. :. Shall therefore fall in with this
abominable delusion! Shall foster that dam-
nable doctrine, that Sociniuism, and Calynism
and Anglcanism, and Judaism, are not every
one of them mortal sins, like murder and aaul-
tery! Shall hold ont hopes to my erring
Protestant brother, that | will not NEEDLE
with his creed if he will not NEEDLE with mine.
Shall / tempt him to forget that he has no
more right to his religious views than he has 10
my purse, to my house, Or iomyhJe-bloOd No
Catholicism is the most iRtOlsraht Of creedS. Ii
is intolerance itself, for it is truth itself. We
might as nationally maintain that sane man
has II right to believe that two and two do not
make four, as this theory Of religious liberty
Its impiety is only eqoalled by its absurdity.'

The Journal of Commerce, shows that the
"strike movement is u game at which two
can play sometimes,-ihe employer as well as
employed We quote:
GA few days since, the employees at the
Mansion House, Brooklyn Heights, waited on
the proprietor, und demanded SlS per month,
instead of $l5 (the old rutc) threatening in
slant departure unless their demand was COM
piled with. Gen. Yale replied diplomaticallv,
that all of them who he employed after the
first of May, should receive the wages desired,
whercupon the discontents resumed their work.
The proprietor Immediately cast about to sec
what was to be done, and the result was
known yesterday. Just before the gong
sounded for dinner, twelve girls very neatly
attired, in dresses all of a colcr, aud white
aprons, were ushered into the dining room,
taking the places Of nine of the importunate
walters who could not afford to soil their fin
gers with gravy to the tune Of only $l5 per
month. The dinner passed of admirably.
The girls conducted themselves with much
deco.un, and although evidently unus ID to tie
business, went through the duties OF their Of
fee without embarrassment, and very much
to the satisfaction of the guests. Many of
the latter called upon their host after dinner,
and congratulated him on the entire success
of the experiment"
The "Journal'' has no doubt that, after o
little practice, the new waites will be more
handy than the old, so that the change thus
brought about is likely to tend to the comfort
OF all concerned.

FACTS ABOUT THE FEyER.-A few
months ago, merchant of this city took
to his home and heart a youthful bride,
and went to reside in the Fourth Dis
trict. Wishing to live in privacy, he en-
gagged only one servant-a fresh green
girl from the Emerald isle. She took the
fever, and in few days died. Another
was hired and shared the same fate. a
third and fourth filled the vacancy in the
household, and followed in succession the
sweeping summons of the same fell de-
stroyer. Following the impulse of ma
tural dread, the merchant went to No
bile to avoid the destructive visitation Of
the scourge, and the next pay buried his
young and beautiful bride. Disguised
with home where nought but empty
chambers served to call up the memories
of departed joys, he returned to the city
to sell out his household, determined to
leave the locality to him so suggestive of
sorrow. He died next day. When our
informant visited the premises, there was
but one living creature there. 1t was a
solitary parrot. swinging in its lonely
cage, and waiting unwittingly its desert
ed state. Alas, poor Polly. o. Cres-

The PARKERsBURG CoNNECrIoN.-Our
Parkersburg neighbors appear to be in
great tribulation about the Western con-
nections of the Northwestern Railroad
Since the success of the opponents to
bridging the Ohio river at or near Par
kersburg, the EIillsboro company has uni.
ted with the Marietta company. to ex-
tend the road to the latter place without
touching the river at Belpre. This leaves
Parkersburg without any connection with
their road, and consequently materially
injuries the business prospects of the
town.
We believe there is conditional char
ter for a road from Williamsport, st. Ma
rvs or Sistersville, to intersect with the
Northwestern road. As the matter now
stands, if any connection is made with
the Ohio companies, it must be by way
of one of those places. and we presume
that they are in high spirits on account
of it.
