c TUESDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 6. 1877.
REV. ROBERT TAYLOR BERRY.

This gentleman was born in King George
county in 1872, and died in Winchester at
che residence of his youngest son, Mr.
Holmes Berry, last Friday, about 5 A. NJ,
after short illness. For many years his
health had been bad, but up to few days
before his death, he had seemed to be better
than usual and was expecting with unusual
confidence and interest to attend the meeting
of his Synod in Alexandria this week.
His remsins were brought to this place
last Friday evening, and were buried from
che Presbyterian church Sunday at the usual
hour Of morning worship.
In 1888 Mr. Berry, then recently licensed
to preach, was married to Miss AMMO
Frame, daughter of DR.. Lee Grigss, of this
place, who died some twenty years ago, leaving
four young sons. OF these one-a noble young
nan-was killed Oh picket in Fairfax county,
early in tho war Of 1S6l-5; the other three
survive to mourn tender fathers loss.
Mr.. Berry was gentleman in an eminent
sense-au accomplished gentleman of most
engaging manner, of raro, social and intellec-
tual cukurc, of tender sensibility and true
refinement, sincere cordial and Trustworthy.
He was most highly esteemed minister of
the Presbyterian Church for about forty years,
an excellent preacher, and had occupied i'm
portant pulpits in Virginia and Mississippi.
He had been pastor of the churches in Front
Royal and Salem, in Virginia, Martins
burg, in West Virgini,, and in Georgetown,
D. G. Suffering from i'll health for many
years, and finally disabled, he had retired
from the active ministry for some time, but
was to tho day of his death highly valued as a
counsellor in all church matters. A large
number of his ministerial brethren would
have been pleased to join in paying their
tribute of respect to his memory on Sunday
last but most of them were prevented from
doing go by duties in their own charges.
Rev. j. A. Lcfevre, D. D., of Baltimore, was
present, however, and paid touching tribute
to she memory of his deceased o-Presbyter.
The Rev. 4. 9. Hopk ins, who preceded DR..
Lefevre in his remarks, also eloquently and
fttingly eulosized the departed minister. A
largo congregation attestcd the kind affection
and high regard in which he was held in tho
community. Mr. Berrys life was for many
years retired and quiet, and his end was
peace.

THE MAN VINO STops HIS PArEn.-
Philip Gilbert Hamilton, in his admirable
papers on "Intclectual Life" thus talks to
the man who stopped his paper: "Newspa>
pers are to the civilized world what the daily
house talk is to the members of tho family
they keep our daily interest in each other,
shey save US from the OWLS of insolation.-
To live as a member of the great white race
that filed Europe end America aud colonized
or conquered whatever territory it has been
pleased to occupy, to share from day to day its
thoughts, its cares, its inspirations, it is me-
cessary that every man should read his paper.
Why are the French peasants SO bewildered
and at sea? 1t is beaouse they never read a
newspaper. And why are the inhabltance
of the United States, though scattered over
. territory fourteen times the area of France,
so much more capable of concerted action, so
much more alive and modern, SO much more
interested in new discoveries Of all kinds,
and capable of selecting and utilizing the
best of them? It is because the newspapers
penetrate everywhere, and even the lonely
dweler on the prairie or in the forest is not
intellectually isolated from the great currents
Of public life which flow through the tele-
graph and press.
