G.. ADDIs, daughter of Samuel and Eunice
Adds departed This life the 9th day OF Dccem-
Der, 1858, aged 20 years, months and Ia days.
She was a member of th> Baptist Church Mt
Westminster She gave satisfactory evidence
that she departed in peace, and in hope of etcr-
nal life. " Blessed are tile dead which die in
the Lord; yea, from henccforth saith the spirit
they rest from their labors and tleir works they
do follow them"
DEPARTED this life on the 18th Dec. 1888 af-
ter u few days suffering of scarlet fever, SUSAN
REESE. aged two years and six months, infant
daughter of NJ. s. Doyle ccnsort of Eli IL. Doyle,
deceased.
,,'rhis little one who was so much loved by her
fond Mother, two little Sisters and many rcla-
tives, has passed away, but while this lovely
little flower faded on earth, il was transplant
ted in licavcu to bloom eternally, and when her
bright eyes were closed in the tranquil slumbcr
of death, we could only say. %! death whcro
is thy sting; o grave whore is thy victory"
Although it seems hard to see death throw its
cold and icy mantle around these tender ties and
sever them fronithc kind embrace OF their Pa
rents, yet, we must yield to the nyst terious ways
of II kind Providence and say all is we'll For
whic we mourn her loss earth her pure spir-
it, has assembled OH high TO n land of pure delight
toutnitc with the celestial choir in singing the
praises of tho redeemed forever.
" Mas. how changed that lovely flower
Which bIoomed and cheercd my heart,
Fair, hocting comfort of an hour,
How soon we're called TO part
And shall my bleeding heart arroign
That God whose ways are love,
Or voinly cherish anxious pain,
For her who rests above?
No let me rather humby pay
Obedience to his will, .r
And with ny inmost spirit say,
MY Lord is righteous STILL ETH

The Weather.

We think wc are entitled TO speak fcclingly
on this subject For the last ten weeks, with
one exception, rain has fallen on Monday, and
generally throughout tie week. The streams
have not been unusually full, but the earth ap-
pears to be perfectly saturated with water. AS
necessary consequence, the roads are in de-
plornole condition-thc mud being deep, gem
cral, and adhcring with the tenacity of miser~
ly grip. Early this week, it was very cold
clear and bracing-thc mountains being white
with snow. Thursday it roned again and to-
day (Friday) tits warm, with dark ''clouds low
ering o'er our hcod," portcnding MORE RAIN!
Verify, we are ON wet times

Lepislatiye.

We have placed on our first pagc the list
of acts passed by the Legislature. Those of
general and local interest will be spread be-
fore our readers as we can find room for
them. We give this week the "act to raise
supplies" which increases the State tax to
n considerable extent This has beon done
to preserve the credit of the State, for liabil-
tiles before incurred, and which have been
been materially, though necessarily increased,
at this session.
Acts to Incorporate the Blue Ridge Min
ing Company" and the "Chauga Lime and
Manufacturing Company" also appear this
week. When organized and in operation,
these companies must aid in developing the
rich mineral and other undcveloped resources
of the District and should receive the pccu-
mary assistance, as well as the hearty sup
port, of our enterprising and public spirited
citizens.
We are indebted to the Chairman of our
Delegation for the appointments, made by the
Legislature, for the district at large, to wit:

If you reject this proposition, then divide your

Correspondents will address Col. P. II. PRA-

Nothing important is occurring in Congress,
The House of Representatives has passed bill,
by large majority, granting pension to TIE

various Indian wars. It's passage through the
