.ist ultmo, Col SPENCER MOTTKOM BALL,
aged 80 years. The decease Of one generally
known and beloved, calls for more than passing
notice. 4 native of Westmor-land county. in this
State. at very early age he removed with his
honored parents Ia the county Of Fairfax and con
tiuued Of its most estimshle citizens up I" the
time Of hi, death. The element: of his character
were so striking and genial, that he could not
pass through life without attracting all capable Of
approaching genuine nobility Of soul Warm and
generous in all his impulses, warm friend in pros
perity, a Sympathisng friend in adversely, the
of his voice, the glance Of his eye the grasp
III his hand, were true opponents OF the inner man;
and the numerous friends that clustered around
him. were mental tributes to his worth. His name
and character will not he soon forgotten through
the extensive circle Of his acquaintance; many a
tear will he dropped 10 his memory when it is
known that he sleeps in the grave. Since the sad
bereavement he sustained in the death of his cher
ishcd wife, he seemed To droOp and langnish for
lack OF that which had been 40 long the joy and
refreshment Of his very existence. AdversltioS IN
quick succession, and tedious illness, rlouded his
latter days but it is consoling to know that The
Friend" that sticketh closer than brother drew
near 10 him amid natures painful decay, and Of
fered him an arm 10 lean upon in his descent 10
the dark valley. May Heavens blessing rest upon
his orphaned sons and daughters. ANICCs.
Mr. TOWNSEND ELGlN departed this life on
the I'D Of April $50, in the 9th year OF his age,
at the residence Of his brother, Nj Hampton Elgu.
Fairfax County Virginia. Mr.. f. was for Il mum
her of years great sufferer but he bore his sttii"-
tions with much patience and fortitude. He WAS
pious young man. He lived exemplary life,
and died peaceful and happy death. And
heard voice from Heaven, saying unto me- Write,
Blessed the dead which die in the Lord from
henceforth: Yea. saith the Spirit, that they may
rest from their laLors; and their works do follow
them" May this dspensation he sanctfcd To the
present and future good of his family and friends.
