-0RITUARY.-

Departed this Life, Thursday evening April
ssth. at her residence near Cariysle, Clinton
Co.. Illinois, Mrs. EIIzABErH III. MILLER,
wife of Isaac Miller, and daughter of L. NJ.
Cresap, aged "a years and 8 month.
The occasion Of her early death was pro-
tracted consumption. To behold the aged
and infsm quit the stage Of life, full of years,
and lay down in the ohliYious grave causes
deep anguish and many bitter pains, but to
witness the ''King Of Sorrows" striking down
one who had not yet reached the meridian Of
life is indescribably melancholy.
The deceased was an orphan, her parents
consigned her:to the orphans God when she
was mere infant. Since then she has resi-
ded with her aunt, Mrs. Harriet Wilson, in
Allegany county, Md, until her marriage, in
October, 1857. All that was interesting ane
lovely in early womanhood was fully devel-
oped In the subject of this imperfect tribute
Her social attraction gathered around large
circle of intimate and loving acquaintance
The kindness of her physician and devoted
husbapd was bestowed upon her-nothins
was left undone that ministered to her good
vet without avail, because an overruling prov
iaence has ordered it otherwise; we must
humbly submit to his will. She now consti-
tutes the third and last link of her father:
family.
Ye disconsolaie husband, dry your tears
since your. loss is her gain. The spirit OF
your sainted Lizzie now swells the throng OIL
those who have washed their robes white in
the blood of the Lamb, and are now singing
praises to Him who reigneth for ever.
A FRIEND.

1t has aided in the passage of unjhst and

Its promises have been broken, its pledges
disregarded, and its professions falsifed. To
conclude the whole matter-national Democ-

Compound Extract Of SaBaparilla,

the most eliectual remedy which the medical
skill Of our times can devise for this every
where prevailing and fatal malady. 1t is COM
bined from the most active rcmedials that have
been discovered for the expurgation Of this foul
disorder from the blood, and the rescue of the
system from its destructive consequences.
Hence it shonld be employed for the cure-of
not only scrofula, but also those other aftc-
tons which arise from it. such as ERurIIvz

in " inpurity Of the blood" is founded in truth,

particular purpose and virtue Of this Sarsapa-
rilla is to purify and resenerate this vital fluid,
without which sound health is impossible IN
