To the Editor OF the Herald
The sad intelligence has iu0t reached las that
little Minnie. only daughter of our very dear
friend Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Z. Nreeland, Of
your city, Is dead. II is hard for us to re liza
that IL con be true, 50 full Of HE md promise
was sha when last we saw her. Strange and
mysterious indeed are the ways and dealings
OF Providenos with the children OF meal
Though separated by nearly two thousand
miles, desire 10 lay flower eftruest and
tendorest affection upon her grave. Seven
years and more have sped away since first We
looked down into the calm depths Of her soft
blue eyes--it gems but yesterday.
1t was our first visit TO tho deigh'fr' home
Of her father and mother as their pastor.
Minnie Wa then q wemanly little girl OF only
five summer -as tiuo and fragile as a lily.
We though. then that abe was one OF the
loveliest litte buds Of promise" we had ever
beheld. so pretty, gentle and motest was
Minnie, the pet snd prize ofthovlIlsga.
AS the years rolled on hsr steadily develop
lug loyeliu,ss eli dlspositiOn and depor.Mont
fully ooudrmsa cur iirEJ iulpressions. Erory
body loved her.
10 patdra' wselaees Of face, sprlshuiuess
Of mimi, wtfr added thoge Giial graces OF a;-
fiction and obedience that mGto yosth beauti-
full a"d constitute, in uf,er year, the orss m
jewel Of character. Her reverence for God
ana religion from infancy was marked aud
prominent. Her little heart was as pure SIS I
snow flake. SHE ieemed to know not that
there were such things IN the world as guile
and sin. Life seemed to stretch out before her
ono long, bright fuuuy day, beneath skies un-
ilecked by single drift OF cloud, promising
this full fruition Of the high hopes Of Il fond
father and devoted mother. Had she lived,
Minnie Vreeland would have shown regplend-
ant in any circle Of which she had been o
member. But sas, alas for human oSpeca-
tior. Like rbrest rose, just beginning TO un-
fold its white petals and diliu'e its fragrance,
tipped By the .frost's Hntlmely breath, the
angel of death has borne this precious little
bud away to that realm wherO the sunlight
never dies sud tina fearful blight OF sin never
falls upon flowers that h0om in perennial
beauty. 1t 10 only for alItte whiloG at longcst,
dear brother and sister, that you have to wait
until the grand reSniou shall take place in the
Kingdom OF God,
Hard rs it Is to feel rScsnci'e ed to your great
loss, yet 1t is right; asd you shall zee and I'M
derstand it all pIter awhile, Only walt, work
watch The shadow shell dissolve sud all DO
made plain.
"With patient mind Thy cour'e Of duty run g,
God nothing dos, nor suffers to he done,
But thou wouldst DO myself couIdst thou
but Gee

May our Father, all moro mi AID kind, give
you, the dear hoys and your precious Minnie,
gone before, a happy greeting a. last in the
laud OF eloraNi life.

PERILS OF BALLOONlNG.
A LADY AERoNAUT's NARROW ESCAPE
IN NEW YORK.

A LADY AERoNAUT's MARROW ESCAPE
IN NEW YORK.
Carlotta, the lady aeronaut who made
a balloon ascension from the Chenango
County, N. Y, Fair Grounds at the re-
cent fair, found herself in rather an I'M
pleasant situation before she reached
the end OF her ride. She trst landed on
the farm of Simon Turner, in Preston,
some five miles from Norwich, after a
trip OF about half an hour. during which
she reached an elevation of two miles.
Encountering a cloud of rain, she threw
out ballast, and everything in the basket,
but the balloon became heavy from rain,
and, descen ding, dragged upon the tops
of forest trees, finally lodging on the top
of a Eastwood tree 80 feet high. A party
of men who were out hunting discovered
her perilous situation, and proceeded to
the rescue, which was no slight task. A
long ladder was procured, and upon as
cending the tree it was found necessary
to cut limbs from it, and. the lady was
with difficulty rescured after remaining
in the tree-top for an hour and half
in a drenching storm.

DEATH FROM HYDROPHOBIA

John Roberts, a colored man en-
ployed on farm near Bordentown, N.
j., died from hydrophobia on Friday.
He was bitten by dog fortnight ago
On Tuesday last he suffered greatly
from pains in the head and neck, and
experienced great difficulty in swallow
ing food. When going to a pump
next day he was seized with violent
spasms and commissions at the sight
of the water, and was so violent that
it took three strong men to hold him
in his bed. He banked like dog and
foamed at the mouth and continued te
suffer the most frightful agony unit
his death. The dog which bit Roberts
was shot shortly after and it was moi
known then that the animal was Attic
ted with rabies.
