w~-MEssRs GETZ & LEONARD, tc
wLom we sold our Drays, Carts &c, a few
DAYS ago, think that they are wonderfully
outraged because we still continue the bus
mess. They have published us through
the papers, SO they may let all, both great
and email, low and tall, know that we
have violated our agreement we made with
them, which was, they claim, that we
would never engage in the draying busi
ness in Washington while they continued
in it.
Now what we have to say is, that from
their own admission, they have published
a willful and malicious falsehood, for a
mean selfish purpose. Lovers of truth
should tell the truth.

"A rumor has been extensively

"A rumor has been extensively
circulated in our town, during the
past week, to the effect that a fam
lily named Groves, one member Of
which is the wife of our venerable
and respected Mayor, have recently
been compelled, by the decease Of a
relative-an old. uncle, probably
over on the other side Of the "big
pond," to fall heir to an immense
fortune of something like $70,000,-
0O0l Je-e-e-miny!
We pity the parties, from the bot
tom Of our heart, and hope, should
time prove the story to be true,
some self-sacrifcing individual will
volunteer to assist the Squire in
taking care of his portion of the
immense fortune. For fear of a
backwardness on the part of our
citizens, we reluctantly tender our
services; and but for our excessive
modesty, we might mention our
willingness to relieve any other
member of the afflicted Grove family
of the charge of good-looking, mar
riageable daughters, &c.

DIED At Bloomingburg on the Isl

DAVID SHELLABARGR, Esq, in the dist yeaI
of her age.
Last November Mr.. Shellabarger moved
to Bloomingburg with view to the educa-
tional advantages offered by the Academy
for his children. Mrs. Shellabarger was
brought upon bed in carriage to her
new and last earthly home, much enact
ated by a painful and lingering disease,
tcancer) which for more than three years
had been ppeying upon her system. I'm
der this continuous pain of body, often
extremely excrucating, her face was ever
as calm and placid as one who experience
ed no excessive sorrow.
She made a profession of religion about
% years ago, united with the Pleasant
Valley Presbyterian church, of which her
father was ruling Elder, and where she
was well and widely known as an earnest
and active christian. She came a sufferer
in body, butan example of what grace can
accomplish in resignation to the will of
God that will be long remembered by those
who were present to minister to her, dur
ing the last few weeks of her earthly life.
On the Sabbath when received into the
church at Bloomingburg, the Session uni
ted with her in commemorating "a Say
iour's death" +" by administering the Lords
Supper in her sick chamber AS she join
ed in the Hymn of Thanks her eounten-
ance was radiant with love to her Redeem
er, for whose coming she had waited so
long without murmuring against the Sc
verify Of his Christening.
Two of her brothers are now minister
ing in the word and ordinances. Rev, ]
W, Drake of Union City, Ind, and Rev.
R. T. Drake, late of Troy. She leaves
ten and the other seven
years of age, in the care Of the covenant
keeping God, and with the rich legacy of
an example above all earthly price,

OBITUARY.

DIED-At the residence of her brother
William Pinkerton, Esq, in Blooming
burg on the 5th of March, inst Mrs NATL.
DA DYER, relict of the late Hugh G. Dyer
in the 56th year of her age She has been
a consistent and exemplary member of the
Presbyterian church for about S8 years,
adorning her profession in all the relations
of life. Her flial love was tested in her
fidelity to her mother, during a period of
nine years of illness, by an uncomplaining
and faithful attention. AS q step-mother,
she was kind, earnest in training up her
household to knowledge of the truth and
industrious to minister in all good things.
Her illness was borne with patience, and
during the last two weeks, when confined
to her bed ewas marked with calm resig
ngtion to the will of God. AS her phys
ichl energies gave way, her faith brought
delightful visions of that habitation not
made with hands; and without distract
ing thought, she calmly fell asleep in
Jesus. -
