SAMUEL Fl. sIMONTON.

Died, February Gosh, in Baltimore, Md, Ssmu
eli 81. SimOnton, Of Columbia, s. c., 10 the 22nd
year Of his age.
The deceased was known intimately to the writer
who bears cheerful testimony to his noble traits of
character. He had been a member of the church
for nearly FIVE years. He had been connected as
clerk, with the Mission and Sustentsion work of
the church for nearly four years. He had been
from childhood dutifIl and affsctionate son and
brother. 10 all the relations be sustained to the
Church and the world, he fulfilled his obligations
cheelfIy, faithfully, and intelligently His death
was sudden aud unexpected to himself and his
friends Although he had been delicate for some
months and his weakening health had given pre-
montions Of an early decesse, it was thought that
he had before him many months OF loving service
ere be would be called away. But it was only a
few days after he was corfled to bed, before the
fatal disease consumption which had Frustrated
him, terminated his useful career. D1Tiug his
sickness he had every attention which Christian
kindness could bestow. After his death, every
mark of respect which could be desired was shown
to his memory, both in Baltimore and Columbia
whittier his remains were borne for interment.-
Had it been the will of God that this noble young
man should enjoy long life. it may easily be pre-
dioed that 1t would have been full of the fruits of
piety, intelligence and love- As it is, his work is
done and he rests fom his labors, which were ear
ly begun, faithfully performed, and are now hap
ply ended, Never has the writer known one of
any age, in whose Christian character and hopeful
death, he had more entire confidence. And this
judgment is based upon a knowledge of him,
gained 10 several years of daily personal inter
course, and under circumstances in which there
could have been no disguise. He was pure, gen
tle loving, earnest Christian and day by day found
his happiness in the performance of his duties and
especially in contributing to the comfort of his
widowed mother, who was chiefly dependent upon
him for support A more aft sctionate and careful
son, perhaps never lived, and although she who
gave him birth, deeply mourns his loss, doubtless
she is cousoled when she thinks of his unspotted
aud sef-deuyiug life, and that he is released from
It's cares and tolls aud is present with his Lord,
wbom,he loved and served. r. NJ.

AN APRIL SONG.
BY EDWIN P. LEWIS.


Sweet April. when you try, with your sunshine
and your sky,
Your wind breathing low and your birds that
sing together,
Your misty blue that fills the hollows Of the hills,
You can make day Of most enchanting
weather.
But on this lovely morning you have for your
adjoining
The presence of my only love. my darling, my
dear
SO You have no need to try, with your sunshine
and your sky,
To make this day the day of all the year.
Yet, April, do your best with soft wind from the
west,
With sunlight on the springing grass, and
tender blue above
Let your singing birds sing loudly, and your
flowers look up proudly
So may you serve the lady of my love
0 month of changeful mien-your days may be
serene
Or your sobbing east wind may be bringing
rainy weather.
Each is welcome day, for it takes me nearer
May,
When my only love and 1 shall be together 4!
