through some of his productions, while in
others the thought is solid and the feeling
sober. Nor are there wanting in his wri-
tings indications of nature sensitive and
finely strung. Some passages in his Pixies
Peak journal, show how susceptible he was
to the beautiful and the grand in Western
scenery.
Little need be said of his moral and social
character. In the words of his mother :;
Edward was always good boy; he was
kind and obliging at home and cannot re-
member that he ever spoke to me single
imprudent word" Careful in the obsery-
ancc of the Sabbath, generally discreet in
his conduct and behavior, temperate and in
dustrious, frank and generous almost to a
fault, companionable and kind to all, he was
leading life that promised the solid man
and the worthy citizen. And is he no longer
with us? Can we NOT hear him reading at
home with voice into which his generous
heart seems thrown, reading, too, from a
Bible that a thoughtful friend had given
him? Can we not see him in the street his
whole-souled nature manifested in his mien.

cheerful, hearty welcome to his mates p
Cannot we see goodness in his heart, ambi.

CAsTINE, July, 1879.
Mr.. EDITOR While cur village were
making preparations to celebrate properly
the anniversary of our National Independ-
ence, their expectant joy was suddenly
changed into grief. One of our young men
healthiul, hopeful and energetic, possessing
such qualities of mind and heart as gave
promise of excellence as a man and a citizen,
was, by seemingly untimely accident, stri,k k
en- down in an hour. Rejoicing in his
strength, bringing with him evergreens to
please the eye-not his it seems-on the Ma
tional Holiday, he fell before the relentless
stroke of death; his mortal ca. eer was broken
off.
His soul to Him who gave it rose;
God led il to its long reposc,
Its glorious rest !"
His death was personal affection to many
and all had that kindly sympathy which is
SO grateful to the bereaved. The large as
sembly at the funeral, the deeply solemn
tones of the preacher, and the chant 50 feel
ingly rendered; the offerings of flowers that
decked the coffin, the long procession Of
young and old, and the simple, grateful
prayer at the grave, all marked the intensity
of sympathy with the afflicted and the re-
spect for, aud worth OF, the deceased.
In accordance with the mourners' wishes
the preparations for celebrating the APP.
preaching anniversary, were continued and
completed. Nor did it seem improper
though on the day of our National Jubilee -
for the Orator to express in few fitting
terms the worth and the promise of the la
mented youth. 1t is now with some diff
denee that lift-though little the vel
which conceals from the public eye the priyat,
life ola young man. The glimpse however
may serve to recall to his acquaintance tn,
pleasant view of his life and may CIV,
pleasure to all who value manly worth anc
endeavor.
