TIE DEATIi or JoHE EBY, EsQ.-The em-
ployes Of the firm of Eby, Morrison & Co,
paper manufacturers, took the following ac-
ton upon the death of the senior member Of
the firm, which occurred on the 26th ult., viz:
WuERrAs, In the 4sl-wise Providence Of
God, It has pleased 4aim to remove from our
midst, our much esteemed and beloved en-
plsyer Iohp Eby, Of the firm Of Eby, Morri
son & Co
Rcsolrcd, Therefore, that we, the employ
es of said firm, take this method of testify
ing our love and esteem for him as a gentle
man and employer. His affabe manners aud
Kindness to all about him have fixed his mem
ory indeliby on our minds, which time with
rs can never eltace.
Resolred, That we sincerely sympathize
with his deeply afflicted family in their irrep-
able loss, and commend them to the fayora-
bic regard and protection Of Kind Provi-
dence,
eea- Blaokwood for December has been
lying for some days on our table and deserves
an earlier notice. The table of contents is
unusually interesting. Sir Brook Fossbrooke
was concluded in the November number, but
we detect the racy and vigorous pen ofCharles
Lever in the lueubFations Of Cornelius
O'Dowd. This number contains an exhaust
i've an d highly commendatory review Of the
writings of-Yictor Hugo. John Bright and his
recent career are given from a Tory point of
view, which our readers may take for granted
to be by no means favorable. The great
Quaker radical and reformer is described as p.
compound between John Wilkes and Jack
Cade; better educated than the one aud
far better looking than the other, but under a
smoo tn exterior as reckless and unscrupulous
as either Very few Americans viii concur
