Obituary.

this parish, on Dec. 31st, 1866, CORDELIA
SNIDER--younger daughter of Col j. A.
Snider-aged years, 6months and II days.
death comes alike to all. The hoary head
ed pilgrim who has marched Ger the sandy
wastes and fertile plains of Life's battle
field, and passed through the boiling vortex
of its cares and troubles, the youthful maid
en-, and the gifted hero, stepping upon the
fowery threshold of an elysian existence,
with the worlds bright panorama of varied
scene extended before them in the glowing
light of youthfulimagery, and to the bright,
peerless innocent of joyous childhood
From this class he has chosen the bright
eyed CoRDELIA, and borne her from the
midst of the family circle. Nipt the tender
bud in the freshness of its pristine beauty,
while the morning dew of purity and inno-
cence still hung exhaled from its lovely
petals. The child Of many hopes--the object
of devoted fathers tenderest Affections
household gem, what sacred memories
cluster around her name Gentle, amiable,
and engaging, she attracted and won the
admiration and love of all who came within
her little circle and acted as CLEAN of sun
shine in her happy home, shedding halo of
pleasant light around all its inmates, she
appeared as star wandered from its native
sphere, but God in his unerring wisdom
generally sees fit to remove these unusual
lights from our armament and leave us only
the sweet and precious memory of their vir-
tue and goodness to cherish.
'.If she had lived, think she could have been
Lilies without and roses within"
Though disease wasted her form, and her
sufferings were most intense, yet she bore
them with stole endurance and fortitude.
Then for her, it is wrong to grieve. Released
from pain and all the evils attendant upon
a sojourn in this vale of tears, let those to
whom she was so fondly endeared, be con-
soled with the reflection that, A
"'Tis better far, in childhood's
Friendless years, ere sorrows come and cares
of earth
| Enslave us, sweetly to fall asleep and ~
Wake in Heaven.
She now enjoys the blissful realities of
this Heaven-tunes her golden harp in uni
son with kindred saints, in praise to God
and the Saviour who said, suffer little
children to come unto me-
She is gone-the tender tie is riyen
That bound her gentle spirit here; >}
| But hope-bright angel, points to Heaven,
And sweetly whispers meet her there.
Mourn not for her; in LIES sweet morn
Her spirit passed away,
Like some fair flower that ope'd at dawn,
And died at close of day.

The negro Fred. Douglass, has
written an article in the great organ
OF the Radicals, the Boston Atlantic
Monthly, for December, in which he
says:
with the negro was success in war
and without him failure: SO in peaca'
it will be found that the nation mnst
fall or flourish with the negro"
White and black Radicals alike now
make the negro the cornerstone of our
political future, the center of all our
National gravity. The white man is
nothing. It is the negro that must
make the nation flourish OR fall. This
is the Republican philosophy, the Re-
publican policy. as

. According to the Macon Tele-
graph, tGeorgia,) the authorities of
that city are called on to furnish from
six totem coffins per day to bury negro
paupers. There is probably not an
able-bodied negro in the South who
might not be employed if he was will
ling to work. There is demand for
laborers in all parts of the South--a
demand occasioned by the rapidly di-
minishing supply. One Of the active
agencies in producing a diminution of
the supply is indicated in the foregoing
statement So long as there is a
''freedman's bureau in the South to
support negroes in idleness, SO long
will the demand for collins exceed the
supply of live negroes for the cotton

IL The Radical Congressional pro-
gramme, SO far as developed, embraces,
LIST, general investigation with a
view to fire the radical heart'' still
more against the Southern States and
people; ID. the trumping up Of charges
upon which the President can be i'm
peached in case he shall show dispo-
sition not to be entirely submissive and
docile; Sd, to pass bill that no name
shall be placed on the roll of the 10th
Congress of any man from any State
not represented in the present Con-
gress; and 18th, to pass a bill excluding
from the electoral colleges in 1868 all
States not at that time represented in
Congress.
The programme is comprehensive.
The point aimed at in every step is the
continuance of the radical minority in
power. Every other consideration is
ignored. But one other step remains
to be revealed, and the revelation will be
made in good time. That is to assume
forever all the powers of government
originally founded on the will of the
people in the hands of a small minority
of radical usurpers. 81
