{ Bishop Wilmer

p The sudden and unexpected death ot
the Rt. Rev. 2. B. Wilmer, Bishop of the
diocese of La, will bring mourning to
all who knew. him, and desolation to the
Episcopal church in this State, OF which
he WIS the faithful pastor. He had only
numbered sixty six years, but they were
years SO full of general usefulness,
marked patriotism, and broad charities,
that his life makes portion of the his
tory Of the whole South, and does not
belong to any special section OF it.
His place cannot be easily filled. for
men like Bishop Wilmer seem to be
tue outcome of all the good and gra-
cious elements of human nature, sub
lined by the loftier principles of pure
christianity. OF his learning, el"quence
and patriotism, it is useless for me to
speak, for other pens have taken up the
subject and deseauted upon those quail
ties which appeal most strongly To pop
ular favor and admiration. But his
humble child-like faith his broad char
ity which covered the faults and failinsS
Of others with compassion his love t.
his fellow creatures, his special tender
ness to his flock, are felt so sensibly by
all who We're brought within the sphere
of his influence, that the very leses
among them cry out '. who will ever, bs
tous What the l,elosed Bishop has been.
Yes that il the waal which best ex
presses tile pain at our loss, aud hi
special virtues beiored by all who knew
him-hy all whom he has strengthened
in trials and comforted in atflictions ails
they make an army of witnesses to ties
tify to the faithfulness of this servan
of the Lord who has entered into hi
rest.
None Of us will forget his last sermon
delivered here fortnight ago. Whel
we listened with reverence to his word
SD full oi holy fervor and persuasive
tenderness and looked at his benign
peaceful face, little did we foresee
that before the New Year dawned, h
would have entered within the Gates o
Life and trodden the streets of tina
Eternal City, which his last word
painted for us with unmatched eloquenc
