DEATH OF r. K. BECKTEL.

If death loves shining mark, its love
is not truer than its aim. AT seven clock
on Saturday evening, its arrow struck
down that model of Christian gentle
man, W. X. PosToX. Tweny-three
hours afterwards it pierced the heart Of
r. X BEcKTEL, an honored citizen Of
Memphis. He breaihed his last at six
o'clock last evening There is not, in
the whole city, a man who possessed bet
ter principles, or one who enjoyed a
greater share of the respect and conf.
dence of the people, His disposition
was kindly aud genial, aud drew about
him the love and esteem Of all
who knew him He long been
merchant here, and at the time Of his
death was an alderman of the city.
Trusted for his fidelity to truth. honored
for his services to society, loved for the
goodness of his heart and the benevo-
lence of his character his death was a
sorrowful event At time when crime
is almost omnipotent over law, and vice
over virtue, society can i'll afford TO lose
such man as Beckiel was He leaves
large family, aud friends who will not
forget him.
