 Such-such, fellow citizens, was the Ian. guage of the immortal Burke, in the Senate of the United States y

This, he said, was the best evidence in the world that the charges against him were unfounded and caumnious The lawyer, Mir. R., replied that there did seem to be the best understanding between the gentleman and his constituents, that his hands were probably as clean as theirs, and that if he had made money, they had no doubt shared with him.

 Mrs. MARY c. DENT, whose death was re- corded in previous number of the Democrat, was born in Charles county, Maryland, in the year 1883. Her very pous mother Mrs. Pick erel, took care to instill into the mind of her daughter, at an early age, those principles of Christian holiness which made her become in after life so bright and beautiful mirror of every female virtue. During the winter of'55, and while her husband had gone to Arkansas, she lost that fond and tender mother. It was. probably in waiting upon her during her last illness that Mrs. Dent caught severe cold, which settled on her lungs Following the fortunes of her husband, and partly to recruit her health, she left W ashington city in the sum mer of last year, and came to this State. The community is well acq quanted with her history since then-and there is no noed of language to describe the virtues of one who excited no feelings but those ol love and admiration in the hearts of all who ever knew or saw her. She seemed to fascinate all who approached her. The secret of this attraction was her chaste, mild and gentle look, which reflected the au- gelic virtues of female modcSty and chastity which dwelt within.
 Mrs Dent could scarcely say a hard word of any person; and during the political excitement of last summer, often did she, with fearful eyes, lmplore her husband not to be severe and denunciatory towards the Know Nothing party. At her dying hour she proved how religion can soften the pillow of disease and rob the tyrant Death of all his terrors After receiv- ing the last sacraments, and joining in the pray CT for departing soul, she called for the cru, clix and blessed candle the latter sweet sym bol of heavens holy light. ere long to beam upon her eycs-the former, a symbol of Chris tian hope and love, the precious fruits of re- demption. She then turning to her husband, With an unearthly, mex lressble beauty on her countenance, said, " It Is sweet to die" repeat ing the expression again and again. Then she breathed her last and heaved her last sigh, with the sweet names of Jesus, Mary and Joseph on her lips, as calm and gentle Ys d chii sinks asleep upon its mothers breast.
 Her remains were carried to the Catholic church in this city, where, after the funeral ob- sequies were celebrated, they were conveyed and deposited in the grave yard adjoining the church of St. Mary, Plum Bayou. May her dear soul rest iu peace. B.
