OBITUARY.

Mrs JAMES 5. SrIGLER is no more amongst
mortals. She died in this city on Monday eve
ming the 18th inst, after very brief but painful
illness leaving husband, two little children, an
aged mother and large circle of dear friends to
mourn their sudden and irreparable loss. Mrs
SrIGLER was Il lady possessed of many charac
teristics highly calculated to render her popular,
and endear her to all who knew her well. She
warm and generous in her affections, social
and cheerful in her disposition, and unobtrusiye
and aiihble in her manners. As a wife, she was
aiiectionate and faithful a mother, attentive
and devoted; and as friend she kind and
steadiast For several years she had been a
member of the NJ. +. Church South-frm in her
principles and exemplary in her Department.
Her last illness was of such character as to pre-
clude any eXpressi m in regard to her religious
state, or her future prospects; but those who
knew her est have no doubt but that she was
prepared, and has gone down, with the hope of
the righteous, to the dead. ould she now speak
to her family and friends she would doubtless
repress the tear of regret, and exhort them all in
tones of the most anxious solicitude to -" be al
ways ready, not knowing the day nor the hour
wherein the son of man cometh." God grant
that they may listen to the admonitons of the
grave. II. p. w.
