Our HOMOred Dead.
..sub Hoe signo vlncimus.'

Litchfeld County has reason to mourn to day. Within the week just passed we havt committed to their native dust all that remain cd of two of our best beloved and most honor sdsots. phs tevered and respected Civilia, has laid aside his robes, and the gallant ant valiant Soldier his armor, and both sleep alik, beneath the turf of our valley, and have enter ed iato the Everlasting Rest
 Our State mourns the loss of its illustriou dead. Him, who, by the purity of his life b, the excellence of his character and by the pro foundity of his, learning, was worthy of the highest position in her Courts of Justice, ane him, who, by his untiring energy, his military valor and his unswerving patriotism was fitted to rank among the foremost Chieftans in the Iand. our State gave and now enshrines forever in imperishable memory.
 It is fitting that the Nation mourns! lily could 1t spare the profound Jurist, who inter preted the laws of State, who, by his counsels his wise suggestions and his unbending integrity aided the Government in it's dire struggle with treason to its laws little, ah ! how grievous now-can it bear the loss of the Soldier, who died in the harness-in the foremost van fighting to maintain it's Laws and Rghts-the noblest and bravest and most gallant of all who have fallen in the field!
 But Death is the lot of all. There are none 90 high in station, none so honored and below cd by all, none so brave and valiant and virtu- ous, but to whom the bolt will come, and level st blow the loftiest rank and Iordliest life With what saddened hearts do we recognize the Insatiate Archer to day! From the mids, of the clash of our triumphant arms as they echo from the field of battle, or from amid the peaceful scenes of our own quiet homes, witt how much force and pathos and mournfal em phasis, come those solemn worG, of the Soldier and Statesman and Scholar of other times :-
 "Oh, Eloquent Just and Mighty Death whom none could advise Thou has persuaded what none had dared Thou has done; whom all the world hath esteemed Thou only hast east out of the world and despsed. Thou hast gathered together all the far-stretched greatness aA the pride, glory and ambition of man, ant hast covered them all over with these two nar yow words: He JACET.'"
