A brief announcement was recently made in
the Journal Of the decesse, by apoplexy ,af James
Chase, Esq, of Lvermore, al the advanced age of
SS years and months. Mr.. Chase was one of
the Oldest citizens OF the town OF Lvermore, and
during his long and useful life an active par
tic pator in all the relg ious, moral and political
enterprises of his time. His connection with the
Baptist church WAS of long and honorable stand
ing, and hlS entire religious life was governed by
the strctes principles of practical faith ami duty
lie frequently visited his and daughter in this
city, DE-. J. +. Chase and Mrs. VIM. Wilson, and
the time spent with these families and among his
many friends in this vicinity, was improved in
dispensing spiritual benedict ions, whose impress
can never be etlaced. The last time the writer of
this notice met Mr.. Chace. he as at his home IN
Livermoie one bright October day, last season,
when the beautiful tints of autumnal foliage, en-
comprising hilltop and valley, expanded into
panorama of loveness and splendor seldom wit
messed, even in New Eng land. Mr.. Chase stood
erect in the vigor of manhood, and gazing
upon the beautiful sulrosndi ngs of his much loved
home, seemed to catch beatlfc vision of his
Heavenly mansion and refer red with almost pro-
phetic assurance TO the time when his enrsptured
senses would revel in the glores of the New Je-
rusalem," whose gates were evidently sjsr to his
exalted vision.
Mr.. Chase was always an active politician, in
the pure sense OF that term. When the Wing
party hesitated to take advance ground on the slav
cry question, he was among the vcrv first 10 this
State to aid in forming the old anti slavery party
and "yoted as he prayed, without reference to
popularity or personal aggrandzeDent He
served in the State Legislature as an islavery
member, though at that time decidedly in the mi
nOrity. He had the satisfaction, however, of lv-
ing to witness the adoption OF bis principles by the
republican party, with which he was after
ward identified. Mr.. Chase leaves an aged wild
ow, three children, and large circle Of other rel
atves and friends.
We learn that another attempt was made to
force entrance into the store of A. X. F.
Grover on corner of Water and Acadamv streets,
in this city on Thursday night last. The bur
glsr was disturbed 10 his movements by the night
Waterman, who sent bullet whistling after the
retleating thief, but failed to make a capture
as the fellow made fast time in q southerly di-
rection. Justice will overtake him, however, at
distant day.
We learn that Rev. Mr.. Emmons will preach
in the South Congregational church in this city,
to morrow forenoon, At the usual time of service.
Remember the Reform club temperance meet
