truth and justice Of what was said. Henry Grew
Lucretia Mott and Charles G.. Burleigh were the
speakers. Mr. Grew dwelt upon the moral up.
~rightnVss and devotedness to principle Of our
friend, and especially upon his entire conservation
Of heart to the cause Of the suffering and oppressed.
lie addressed himself, with deep pathos. to those
present who were personally bereaved by this sad
event, and exhorted all to lay to heart the lesson
which the occasion g. solemnly inculcated.
Mrs. Mott said this wasthe second time in a very
short period that the friends Of the slave in this
city had been called to mourn the departure Of q
valued coadj utor. Our beloved friend Haworth
Wetherald, had been taken away in the prime
of his manhood, and at the full tide Of his useful
ness, a1d now, when our tears had scarce ceased
to flow, and before the wound in our hearts had
time to heal, another, still younger and moving
in a yet wider sphere of useful activity, nnd
whom We had fondly counted on for indefinite
years of service, has been cut down-and who shall
supply his placer Mrs. Mott recalled the time
when our friend first came among US, nine years
ago, in the freshness and vigor, as it we're, of his
youth she spoke of his glowing and earnest zeal,
and the eloquent appeals especially by which he
sought to inspire others Of the same age with n
portion of his own dcvutcduess. She regarded his
arduous life and early death as in some sense q
martyrdom not doubling that it had been his in
defatigable and self-forgetting labors that had
put Il premature period to his days.
Mrs. Mott was followed by c. c.. Burleigh, the
brother Of the deceased, who, in low tones and in
a voice much impeded by emotion, uttered one Of
the most beautiful and touching eulogiums / ever
heard on any similar occasion. ] wish l could
recall some of the beautiful and well.sustained
figures in which his glowing feeling expressed
itself; but my memory is too imperfect to allow
me even to attempt it.
"The interment took place at the "Woodlands.'
t a beautiful cemetery, on the west bank Of The
Schuylkill, about a mile below the city. The day
was excessively cold aud disagrecaLle, but, not
withdrawing, quite 4 gcodly number followed thu
body to its last resting place. AS we stood arount
the grave, Mary Grew, said, with u voice and man
ner deeply impressive:
'IIc has fought a good fight he has kept thu
faith he has finished his course. He has gone
e before US, our true-hearted brother, to the spirit
4 land; whence his voice comes back to US. saying
r BE We faithful unto DEATH"
This was the end Of .hese solemn ceremonies
the procession was reformed, and the sad part,
returned to their homes, somc mourning for thei
t personal bereavement, and all sorrowing for tn
= departure of a true friend to humanity.
y This event has not come upon US suddenly. ye
t it can hardly be said that we were prepared for II
i 1t is a year since our friend was disabled from
c active labor, and for even n longer time thai
c that the result which has now been reached wa
by some of US clearly furseen yet his loss /
mono the less sensibly felt. lie has left a ga
o which we have not yet been able, nor have w
/ now any prospects of being able, to fill.
u His place we may not well supply,
Though we among ten thousand try
d With vain endeavor.
o Tho truth is-to PASS from this subject to anothe
which it naturally suggests-our cause is sadly Of
for efficient active laborers. Though many ne,
d converts are added to our ranks, our lec,urin
e agents are lamentably few. James w. Walker
gone Parker Pillsbury is broken down in health
a and abroad; Frederick Douglas lends his influ
encc to our enemies and pulls down while he build
: up: Lucy stone has boon transferred to anothe
field, and now Cyrus Burleigh, our faithful an
true friend, whose industy knew no %faitering
and whose zeal never fagged-he, too. has gone
u and we have none to take his place. Those thought
Il are truly saddening.
"And yet. thank God, our cause moves bravel
IS forward and here and everywhere are seen ev
denccs of it's steady progress toward a great t'
umph."
STILL ANOTHER CAsE.-Un Sunday last, tn
steam boat Fnlls City, arrived at Cincinnati wit
h ten slaves on board. A writ Of ilabeas Corpu
10 was issued. But the entrance of the .heritf on I'll
boat was resisted until the slaves were conveyed
the kentucky side of the river, or concealed o
board. A rule was subsequently issued by tn
court, requiring the Captain to show cause VIII
attachment should not be issued against HIM IL
