as We are Informed, was young woman
of superior worth. Yesterday afternoon
Nash hired horse and chaise at East
Arlington, informing the proprietors that
he should not come back himself, but
that he would send the carriage back
He then drove over to Randolph, where
Miss Nash was visiting, after having
left Pembroke in the morning, and re-
turned from a visit to Boston in the fore

to come to his bedside, when lie desired

his desk two wills which she would find
there, and bring them to him, which
she did, upon looking at one, which he
observed was useless, he desired her to
burn it, which she did, and then took
the other and put it away. After this
was done, [ returned again to his bed

what had been done was without effect;

him '4poot s., hard, but | am not
afraid to go; .eiieved from my fist
attack I should not survive it my
breath cannot last long" The doctor
pressed his hand, but could not utter a
word he retired from the bedside and.
sat by the fire, absorbed in grief. About
eight O'Clock the physicians again came
into the room, and applied blisters to his
legs, but went out without ray of hope.
From this time he appeared to breathe
with less difficulty than he had done;
but was very restless, continually chang
ing his position, to endeavor to get ease.
[ aided him all in my power, and was
gratifed in believing he felt it, for he
would look upon me with eyes speaking
gratitude but unable to utter word
without great distress.
About ten o'clock, he made several
attempts to speak to me before he could
effect it at length he said-"I am Just
going Have me decently buried and
do not let my body be put into the vault
in less than two days after am dead.'
bowed assent. He looked at me again
and said-''do you understand me ?''-

said. About ten minutes before he ex-
pired, his breathing became much easier
he lay quietly--he withdrew his hand
from mine and felt his own pulse. |
spoke to DR.. Craik, who sat by the fire;
he came to the bedside. The Generals
hand fell from his wrist; I took it in
mine and placed it upon my breast
DR.. Craik placed his hands over his
eyes; and he expired without a struggle
or a sigh.
While we were fixed in silent grief,
Mrs. Washington asked in firm and
collected voice Sis he gone ?' and thus
closed the earthly career of one of Gods
noblest creations.

THE Two LIvEs-Beautiful is old
age-beautiful is the slow dropping au-
tumn of rich and glorious manner
In the old man nature has fulfilled her
work she loads him with blessings, she
fills him with the fruits of we'll spent
life /; and surrounded by his children's
children, she rocks him softly away to a
grave to which he is followed with bless
ings. God forbid that we should not
call it beautiful. There is another life,
hard, rough, and thorny; trodden with
bleeding feet and aching brow; the life
of which the cross is the symbol bat
tie which no Ieace follows this side of
the grave, which the grave gapes for
before the victory is won, and strange
to say that it should be so-this is the
highest life of man. Look along the
great names of his history there is none
whose life has been other than this.

THE FORSAKEN.
VERY DISMAL BALLAD.
BY. J. Z. OTIS.

BY. J. Z. OTIS.
SOME time ago,
A tickle beau,
With winning word and look,
And smile so bright,
Came every night
ACQUIRING of our cook.
He gave her rings
And pretty things
To deck her auburn hair;
And dresses, too,
OF gingham new,
And breast-pin big to wear.
He won her heart
With cunning art,
And breathed a lovers VOWS;
He spoke with pride
OF such bride
Amilklng of his COWS.
He talked of love
And stars above,
(Such things as poets utter y
And gown of silk
From sale of milk
Of new-laid eggs and butter.
A year was gone,
And so was JoHni
Our hapless cook forsaking.
Oh p! tickle man!
He left his ANN,
And her lone heart is breaking
With aching head
She mixed her bread
And thought of other days;
Then frantic strove
To reach the stove,
And put it there to raise
With look of woe
F1ed on the dough,
One curse she gave to men ;
Then face of ANN
Was in the pan;
She never breathed again
