35th wear Of her age. This was the most i'm

Under long protracted physical suffering, no ac-

to be motherless, from her friends and relatives
in various degrees Of Ielalonshlp-eyen the
strong, stern man, unused to the melting MOOD

" do occasions like this bring out that fine chord
Of sympathy which runs through every human
heart binds ihe race in universal brotherhood
But the commanding feature of the scene lay
in her child like trust in thatAlmighty being who
alone can suCcor and console in the dread hour
when the soul is about TO be gasped from the
body and 10 stand in the presence of It's Judge
There was no ostcntatious defiance of the power

views of, and relations to, that Saviour IN whom
all may trust, she with characteristic gentlehesS
replied, 81 made my peace with HIM long ago

On Wednesday night or Thursday MORN
ing last to fire the block extending north
from the Valley Bank, A long train of
candle-wjck, saturated with camPhine and
gunpowGer, was laid from the yard at
tached to that building to an clubhouse
connected with HooYer's tavern, where
il terminated in large roll Of raw cotton,
similarly prepared. Fire had been COM
munlcaed to the southern end Of the cord,
but it burnt through on the top of log
over which it was laid, thus fortunately
preventing conhagralion which, from
the character OF The tenements around,
must have been destructive. Mr.. H., we
learn, had been on the watch for some
nights, but on that evening he thought
there was no cause to fear further alarms
in his neighborhood, and retired to rest
