OBITUARY.

Died at Macon, Georgia, July II, 1862, Ira Z.
Peck, in the Goth year of his age. Brother Peck
was a member of Company b, 18th Regt. Iowa
Volunteers. He was born in Vermont in 1884.
He removed with his parents, brothers and sis
tiers to hlamakee Co., Iowa. embraced religion
in the year 1858, and united with the M. E.
Church. From that time till his feet crossed
the Jordan of death, he never faltered in his re-
ligious course. He was diligent in business, fer
vent in spirit-aways ready to do right, gave
literally and willingly to support the gospel, and
every institution of the church. In September,
1861, he babe adieu to many friends and rela-
tiyes to defend his country's flag, he passed
safely through the battles Of Forts Henry and
Donelson, was engaged in the battle at Shiloh,
where he was taken prisoner with his regi-
ment, and after being taken from place to place,
suffering from hardships, hunger and nakedness,
his soul assembled to God. His body sleeps in a
soldiers grave in a southern cline, but his mem
DRY will be cherished by many.
Died in Macon, Georgia, Sept. "a, 1862, Simeon
Peck, in the 9th year of his age Brother Peck
was a member of Bo. b, 18th regt Iowa Volun-
teers. He embraced religion and united with
the church on the same day that his brother
Ira did. And as we have said Of Ira, we can say
of Brother Simeon, he held on to his integrity
in the midst of the vices of the camp, being a
cheerful and pleasant companion, and valiant
soldier, both for his country and his Savior. He
was taken with his regiment South to receive
at the hands of Southerners treatment never be-
fore heard of among Christian nations, he with
stood all till after his brother Ira was called
away, after which it seems he so grieved that
his health gradually yielded under the hard
ships till disease fastened upon him, and in a
few short days he exchanged Southern prison
for the paradise Of God. He leaves parents,
brothers and sisters weeping on the shore, but
they grieve not as those who have no hope.

RIVERS OF BLooD.-The circulation
in the system is not unlike the flow of
rivers to the sea, which move smoothly
until they are clogged or obstructed.-
But when drift wood or alluvial deposit
dams them up, then comes the tearing
devastation that follows the obstruction
of force which cannot be stayed. So
the blood circulates insensbly through
the system until it becomes clogged by
disease; then burst out the ulcers, sores
and disorders which follow that condition.
Take Ayers Sarsaparilla and purify
your blood, 10 save yourself from the
floods, freshets and deluge which sweep
unnumbered multitudes out upon that
shoreless sea which swallows all man
kind.-Lancaster (Pa) Register.
