OBITUARY..

MRS. JUDITH GRIER MASON. fourth
daughter Of JAS. II. and CAROLINE BRIT
TON. was born July 9th, 1928 was married to
@. T. MASON January llth, 1852, became a
member of tho Presbyterian Church in 1853, and
died April 10th, 1870.
The subject Of this notire moved through the
quiet and retired scene Of domestic life with con
scicntious and unostenta,ious faithfulness. She
circunscribed o circo Of intimate friends and
neur relatives, and especially thclittle sanc-
tuary Of home, filled tho full measure of her
aspirations in this world, calling firth those
deep and tondcr emotions which give life its only
substantial value.
She knew what friendship meant She put the
largest lawful estimate upon the tender ties Of
kindred. Sho found enough to fill her heart and
occupy her hand, for the most part in tho society
Of him with whom her lot hnd been associated by
tho tenderest Of oil earthly ties and in acoiionate
maternal caro- Of those dear ones whom God had
given to their especial guardianship.
Religion, so essential to nll, but so peculiarly
attractive in the female, was, with hor, no empty
profession, no partisan affair, no external sbow (;
but s"leinn reality pointing to God, tho grave
und eternity. Like lIor Divine nmster, she wns
without guile. She possessed "the ornament of a
meek and quiot Spirit" lie who knew her best
and loved her most, uttered her grcntost praise
when he said: "She road her Diblo not for con
trovcrsy, but for instruction."
But, "She il not, for God hath taken herr
lie hns taken her from lfe's duties, lifc's cures
and lifes relations, to a higher holier, happier
sceno Of active existence, in tho midst Of tho
panionship Of Heaven, to bo forever with tho
Lord"
How strange that she for whom NO weep,
Is crowned with radiant light
Tint she whose Dyes arc closed in death,
Views Christ aud angels bright?
How strange! that joy is full with her,
Whilo we nre snd below,
What eho would by far prefer,
Thnt all should TO just so
o true IL is, we dimly geo,
. Those glorious things on high
But Jesus Lord to be with thee,
Wo ccnse to weep and sigh.
D'ED, in Sumter County, on Wednesday
morning, 3rd Of May, NATHANIEL F.
SPANN, aged a. years. lie had been membor
Of the NJ. f. Church South, for about tw.nty
five years, md most of that time q professor Of
religion. Ho suddenly removed from
earth, by tho nnture of his ciscase, that We hnvo
nothing FROM him when passing through the
"vallcy and shadow Of death - but we earnestly
hope, TINT through tho infinite merits, of Jesus
Christ, he rests in Heaven. lie leaves behind nm
affeetionatc wife and four children to mourn his
loss.
May God's blessing rest upon the hcrcaved
widow and fatheross children. and may lie raise
them up many friends, to holp and cheer them
through life's wcarisomc pilgrimage.

commission FROM the NortAsru Metho.
dist Church seeking reconciliation and
union.
r The following communication va.
presented by Bishop James aud read BY
the Secretary:
Dear Brethren /: By the action and
authority Of tho General Conference oi
the Methodist Episcopal Church, held
in Chicago in May, 1858, the under
signed were appointed Commission in
behalf Of said Church, to treat with a
similar Commission from auy other
Methodist Church, on the subject Of
union.
The Bishop. Of the Methods. Epis.
copal Church, who also constitute part
Of this Commission, in May, 1869,
communicated to the Bistops of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, South, the
fact that such commission had been
appointed, and expressed to them the
conviction that the Commission would
be happy to meet similar one from tho
Methodist Episcopal Church, South, for
the purpose contemplated 70 its appoint
mept.
Alta meeting of this Commission, held
in Philadelphia, November 23rd, 1860
resolution was unanimously adopted,
approving the aforesaid action CT the
Bishops. Nevertheless the Commission
as such, aud as constituted by the Gen.
eral Conference, being dcsirous Of dis
charging its duties in the fullest and
most acceptable manner, deemed it
proper to make further commnnica-
tion on this subject, addressed to the
Bishops and General Conference of the
the Methodist Episcopal Church
South, to meet in Memphis, iu' May,
1870.
Tho fact that the General Confer
ence Of the Methodist Episcopal
Church appointed this Commission,
shows TINT, in the judgement Of that
body there are now no sufficient reasons
WY "u'ou ibuy uol w chcCtcu vi
terms equally honorable to all, and
that tho realization of such
union is very important and desir-
able.
Hoping that you may see this subject
in tho same light, and it may be your
pleasure toappoint a similar Commission
to confer with us previous to the
meeting Of our next General Confer.
encc in 1872; and praying that you
may be prospcred in oil that pertains to
the welfare Of Christian Church, and
desiring your prayers in behalf of the
Church wo represent, that we may share
like Prosperity, we are, dear breth-
ren.
Yours in Christ Jesus,

CAUSES OF SUDDEN DEATH.-V cry few
of the sudden deaths which are said to
arise from /" disease of the heart" do
really arise from that cause To ascer.
tain the real origin of sudden deaths, ex-
periments have been tried in Europe, and
reportedcto a scientific congress held at
Strasbourg. Sixty six cases of sudden
deathwere made the subject of thorough
post norton examination; in these cases
only two were found who had died from
disease Of the heart. Nine cut of sixty
six had died from apoplexy, while there
were forty-six cases of congestion of the
lungs-that is the lungs were so full of
blood they could not work, there not be-
ing room enough for sufficient quanti-
ty of air to enter to support life. The
causes that produce congestion Of the
lungs are, cold feet, TIGHT clothing, costive
bowels, sitting till chilled, after being
warmed with labor and rapid walk, go
ing too suddenly from a close heated
room into the cold air, especially after
speaking, and sudden depressing news
operating on the blood. The causes of
sudden death being known, an avoidance
of them may serve to lengthen many val
liable lives, which would have otherwise
be lost under the verdict of "heart com
plant" That disease is supposed to be
inevitable and incurable; hence many
may not take the pains they would to
avoid sudden death, if they knew it lay
in their power.

course
" We ask no one to support an incapable

nomination. On the contrary we urge
every voter to strike from his ballot every
name which he knows to be that OF dishon.
est or nnft man, no matter for the conse.
quences. ouventionsa and ! wire workers
must be taught that such nominations will
not answer, and this is the way to teach
them. Do not ask US to particularize and

the inquiry, and scratch of every bad man 8

Immediate consequences may be disagreeable,
