OBITUARY.

Our friend, Capt. j. j Geisler, sends
us the following obituary of one of our
subscribers. He speaks of him as
having been a worthy man and useful
citizen. We place his name on the
bright list of the readers of the Nelcs
whom we have survived, but we hope
to meet in better land;
Departed this life, on the 18th inst, at his
residence in Sullivan county, Tenn, Mr..
PHARoAH RILEY, in the s3rd year Of
his age.
He had been blessed with pous mother,
who taught him the ways Of righteousness,
but he needed not those instructions, aud
grew mp in sin, and in some respects b came
reckless, but never forgot the prayers aud
counsels of his mother. About twelve
months before his death he resolved to be
religion, and set out to make his peace
with God, aud, became a man Of prayers.
Previous to his departure he found peace
by believing in Jesus, and for days he
seemed to be inexpresSibly happy in the
love Of God, exhorting all who visited him
land they were manyl not tolive as he had
done. His greatest regret was that he had
spent his days in sin and folly. He sent a
message by the Minister, who WAS reques-
ted to preach his funeral sermon, to.alI the
Young men of the community to- seek the
Lord in early life. His theme was, after
conversion, Amazing grace, how sweet
the sound that saved wretch like me-" g.
When the tinsl hour came, without Il strug-
gle or a croau, he sweetly ten a sleep in
the arms OF Jesus His was narrow es
cape, aud yet great triumph. Great is
Gods loving grace. s. 4. WHEELER.

Adjournment or the Presbyterian
o Church Synod

PITTsBURG, May 29.-The Synod of
the Reformed Presbyterian Church,
after an exciting session of nine days,
adjourned, to meet In 1869 at Cedars-
vile, Ohio. The principal time of
the Synod was occupied in the con-
sideration of the charges against
George H. Stuart, for singing hymns,
which resulted in his suspension.
Drs. Wylie and Session, of the First
Reformed Church, Philadelphia, were
suspended and prohibited from aay
judicial action in all cases now pend
ing in that Church. The Presbytery
of Philadelphia is, also, restrained
and prohibited from any action aris-
ing from the same case.
DR. Mcleod presented reasons for
veting nay on Stuart's case, after hav-
ing so strongly advocated his suspen-
sion.
Mr.. Stuart has the sympathy of the
entire community Had his health
permitted a public meeting would
have been held togive expression to
the feeling.
