Rev. Dr.. BULLARp.-The sudden death of
DR.. Ballard, on the Pacific Railroad, at the
Gasconade Bridge, was the subject Of a dis
course by Rev. DR.. Beman, at his church in
Troy, n. Y. 1t will be recollected be was
present at the dedication of Dr. BuIlard'z
church, in st. Louis on Sunday before the ac-
cident occurred. He remained several days
afterwards and received, as did many other
distinguished strangers, an invitation 70 par
ticipate in the excursion. Both DR.. Beman
and DR.. Bullard accepted, but a correspon-
dent, writing TO the Boston Journal, says:
The daughter Of Mr.. Bemsn refused TO 60
she was anxious TO return home, and to her
earnest solicitations her father yielded, and
on the morning Of the fatal excursion he and
his daughter took the conveyance for the East
At the cars he took leave of DR.. Bullard, who
said to DR.. Beman, "Parevell, We shall new
or meet again in this world"
"0h, yes, We shall, I" said Beman, "I may
visit the West again, or you may visit the
East"
With great solemnity DR.. Bullsrd replied,
L have a strong presentiment, Brother Be-
man, that We shall never meet agsin-fare-
well.n
And so they separatsd-ths one 10 his home
and parish, the other to the awful death
awaiting him only few hours ahead. Death
