An Rlopement and its Consequences.
The papers some weeks since chronicled

months and days.
The deceased was the oldest SON Of d. n.
Wire, Esq, of this place. For several yean,
that fell destroyer of our youth, had been
gradually, but surely, undermining his consti.
tuition.
Here rests his head upon the lap Of earth,
A youth, to fortune and to fame unknown,
Fair science frowned not on his humble birth
And melancholy marked hin for her own,
Large was his bounty. and his soul sincere,
Heaven did a recompsnce ~ largely send
He gave to misery (all he had) tear.
He gained from heaven (t'was ill he asked) .
friend.
No farther seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode,
(rhere they alike in trembling hope repose>
The bosom of his Father and his God.

Hearth Rendering Narrative.

We have published says the Memphis
Eagle & Enquirer, brief account Of the
sweeping away OF the houses Of Rev. Mr..
llsIey, Of Roscoe, Illinois, by which his
wife and eight children were drowned,
but the tale of that night, S told by the
Reverend gentleman before the jury Of
inquest, is sad and touching. He said
Tho rain commenced TO fall at about
o'clock on Thursday afternoon. and
increased in force until about 10. At 9
o'clock the water was up around the
house, and rushing by with great Iorce;
Mr.. |. proposed to his family to leave the
house, but as men who were in the neigh.
borhood had told them they had seen the
water much higher than it was now, they
concluded not TO 60 out. AT about ii
o'clock Msssrs. Thompson, Lane and
Towers got up to the house and told them
they thought there was no danger, as the
water had lowered. Mr.. llsley wen, to
the door and measured the height of the
water, and found it had fallen four or five
inches.
Having concluded TO remain in the
house, the FIVE younger children were
sent to bed, and shortly alter the bslspc.

R@g= The Cumberland Presbyterian

R@- The Cumberland Presbyterans
have erected in our midst new church
in which TO worship God, and one that
affords more room than the old one
The building is very nice one and is
provided with gallery and place for
choir. This will be decided improve,
ment. They have good choir, and Mr..
LoughmilIer is a good leader, and instruc.
tor.
But we think one thing more they
need, and that is an organ, or large me-
Iodeon. We do not know whether the
worshipng congregation at this church
intends to furnish its choir with this ad.
di,on or not, but it certainly ought. No
one can consistently urge a reasonable
objection to a good musical instrument
in church, and it would be we'll for ev.
cry church in Winchester 10 have one
Hardened indeed must be that persons
soul whose feelings are not transported
above -worldness and scIGshncss at the
sounds OF harmonious choir, aided by
the sweet tones Of an instrument, We
can only make music a means Of harm
when we add speech to sound it is only
by marriage with words that she can
become a minister Of evil. An ;nstru-
ment which is music, and music alone,
enjoys the disability OF expressing sin
gle vicious idea, or inspiring single cor
rupt thought 1t would be an anomaly in
human history how any form o { religion
could condemn an organ, for it cannot
say an impious thing if it would. Let
US then add to the holiness and glory oil
divine worship, by mnging the human
voice with the tender, soothing and heav.
en.inspiring tones Of an organ. With.
out it, the choir will be deficient; with it
complete.

G4s' The next two months promise
to be Of but little interest in Winches.
ter Indeed we cannot see what our cit.
izcnS will do to interest thcmselves.-
The fourth Of Jul y will soon be here, but
we hear Of nothing like celebration Of
il beng planned. OF all the days that
should be commemoraled in some meet
and entertaining way, this day deserves TO
be called the most important. 1t is the
day on which our declaration Of freedom
from the tyrannical rule Of the Mother
Country, was proclaimed, and we should
never cease to celebrate it. We do hope
il may not be allowed to pass unobserv.
ed this year. Contrive some method 10
keep it in remembrance, by all means--
We would suggest, too, that the members
Of the Harmonic Society prepare another
performance during the ennui that will
prevail between this and the coming Fall.
We know they would meet with full
attendance.
