Death Of Mrs. Seward

The death at Washington ycster.
day, Of Mrs, Frances Seward, wife OF
the Hon. Wn III. Seward, will be
widely and sincerely mourned as
more than q family bereavement
Mrs. Seward, born Frances Miller,
daughter Of Sudge Elijah Miller, one
OF the honored pioneers OF Central
New York, had attained the age of
sixty years, and had filed for thirty
years an exalted position without
once exciting an IN nifty or alternating
q friend, and without ever meeting
one who had either the power or wish
to speak i'll OF her. Intellectually
gifted and cultivated far beyond the
average not merely Of her sex bat of
hor time, she gave much heed and
thought to public affairs without neg
lecting or sighting any Of the duties
OF beloved, exemplary wife or
mother; and every pulsation OF her
heart beat strongly for Justice, Hu.
manity and Freedom to all. An inva-
lid and sufferer for several years past,
she had necessarily Withdrawn in a
great measure from society, soaced
by the admiring love Of n devoted
family and walking checrtully heav-
onward in the light OF an unshadow-
ed Christian faith. She has remain
ed for most part at home during the
last four years, but hastencd tl.
Washington on the first tidings OF
tho murderous assault on her hus-
band and son, and the ovsrtaxing of
To- impaired physical strength by
that trying journey probably shorten,
ed her earthly career. All her chill
dren (threa sons snd daughter)
survive her. Her mortal remains
Will doubtless rest in the cemetery OF
Auburn, the city Of her birth, which,
though not always her residence, was
always her home.

SYM PTOM s.

The symptoms of Catarrh arc at first very
shght. Persons find they have a cold, that
they have frequent attacks, and are moro SEM
sitivo TO the changes Of temperature. In this
condition the nose may be dry, or a slight dis
charge, thin and acrid, afterwards thick and
adhesive, may ensue.
As tho disease becomes chronic, tho dis
charges are increased in quantity and changed
in quality; they are now thick and heavy, and
are hawlsed or coughed off. The secretions
are offensive, causing n bad breath; the voice
thick and nasal; the eyes are weak; the sense
of smell is lessened or destroyed; deafness
frequently takes place.
Another common and important symptom Of
CatarTh is, that the person is obliged TO clear
his throat in the morning of thick or slimy
mucous, which has fallen from the head dur
ing the night. When this takes place, tho
person may be sure that his disease is on its
way 20 the lungs, and should lose no time i'll
