GRACE-February 1st, ISIS, at sharpsv lie, Penn,
Aaron Grace, father of WilmOt Grace, of Belden-
vile, Wis, in the 5Sth year of his age,
Fifty-three years Of his life work was done in and
around the small and unpretending village OF Mill
brook where he had no enemies bat many friends.
Among those of his own age his name was a house
hold word. The monuments Of his industry and
toll, as seen on the farms and among the mills OF
Wolf Creek, remain Way-marks to those who
survive him and will be spoken of by generations
to come. At the time Of our first acquaintance
with him he was in the strength and prime of man
hood. Amable and courteous III his transactions
with his fellow men, he was genial companion, a
a kind husband, beloved father and atfectionate
brother. He never sought any mask to cover him,
but was Just what he appeared to befull Of truth,
eandor and humanity. In all his pursuits be knew
no path but the fair and direct one and would have
rather failed of than attain it by dishonor
able means OF him it can be truthfully said, SIZE
was an honest man, the noblest work of God''
Five years ago be removed to Sharpsville, where
he remained until called by death to that bourne
from whence no traveller returns. During most OF
his soourn in Sharpsvlle he was great sufferer,
his Affections being both of mental and physical
nature. While making his last visit in the place
of his BIRTH his friends noticed with sorrow that
disease was preyng upon his manly form and
feared lest reason should be driven from her regal
empire Although his suferings severe and
constant, he submitted without complaint, being
resigned to the will of Heaven. For some time
prior to his demise he took great pleasure in the
Contemplation and study of Gods word, assuring
his family and friends that he was prepared to
de having committed his soul to God as faith
full Creator, believing that the Judge Of all the
earth would do right. Among his last requests
was that his little daughters should sing to him of
the "Home over nere,' remarking as they sang,
II shall soon be there'' and thus friend and
brother passed to the eternal world his end being
peace. The funeral discourse was preached by
Rev. II. Westlake on sabbath last at MlIbrook,

Does Prof Earthman mean to convey the
idea to the readers Of the JOURNAL that gold
is going to circulate as money If he does
can assure him there are but very few of them
who believe any such thing in this part d
the country, at least. Now If the bankers are
going to keep the gold in their vaults and is
sue paper bills to represent that gold, what
better than the greenbacks are those paper
bills? One depends on the ability of the gov
eminent to pay and the other on the honesty
of the bankers. The existence of one shows
confidence in the government; the existence
OF the other shows that somebody else, who
may, be two or three thousand miles away,
has your money Ii the rank and file of the
bullionists have any idea that gold is going
to circulate they may as well divest them
selves of the idea al once, for the leaders have
no such idea. This is merely my opinion.
