In the late funeral procession, many OF our |
citizens must have observed 8 splendid Nor !
gan-A1abian dark chestnut horse With silver |
name and tail, rode by Geo. Gage, Esq. The
horse, besides his excellent points, bis proud
If arching neck, delicate step and glossy hide,
has quite history connected with him. IN
other words to this animal hangs tale quite
different from the; esudat appendage, with
which necessity nature proulded him~

| high connections and large wealth. who paid
fabulous sum for him, attracted By his raEe

| her affections were divided between him and
gallant and gay Mississippi Major Of cavalry,
dashiDg dragoon gotten up exclusively for
| killing fair ladies With his smiles, and the
damned Yanks" with his terrible cutlass.

was for Il time afflicted with a painful
disease, which ballled the skill of earthly
physicians, yet in the hour Of her greatest
suffering no murmur escaped her lips. but
with sincere faith in the Saviour, She pa.
tlently and resignedly bore all, and awaited
until II should please the Ruler Of the Uni
