the continuation of physical identity and |
the certainty Of the constant changes OF
mortality. Two more mortals at humani- |
" have passed from physical animation,
from our village. The compound that
formed the entity Of human beings to be
chemically or scientifically dissolved, the
component parts again to be separated and
passed hack into the unseen elements from
which they were composed, still filling
that immortal place In the grand economy
OF natures law that permits of no loss or
gain in the transfer, although passed from
the vision and identical knowledge ofmsn,
vet the tact ofthe immortal existence can
be 10 less real and established truth than
when an existing entity in a compound
state or organized body. Nature declares
dividuality the tax assess upon you must
aud shall be paid each and every day, and
you can gather from my bountiiul store
house, in ~ crude form, from which you
can extract through the process of my
law, to reinstate the deficiency OF my de-
mand, and when you cease To comply with
this liberal offer, or have drawn your al
lOted portion, will take the broken frag
mcuts or worn out machine to myself and
recast into other forms for my further use.
Nothing shall 90 to waste. or lie idle tor
one moment in the rigid economy of my
plans, and the unliquidated debts or viO-
lation of my laws shall follow from gener-
alton to generation, without let or hind
rance, until paid with interest, hence the
premature deaths ofmiddle age and early
youth, totulfll that sentence that cannot
he commuted and no living mortal knows
when he or she shall pay the Same penal
ty tor their own transgresSons or heredi-
tary taints, that none can escape under the
economical law Of physical existence. In
the present case Mrs. Alspaugh and
daughter of Mr.. Alex. Tressler, of your
city,, was one of the victims, in the bloom
oflife, a highly intelligent and respected
neighhor, leaving three motherless in
fants, the youngest but few weeks old
| to be cared for by father and friends. The
other bright and pretty little daughter of
| the widow kershner, but four years old,
little bud snatched almost without warn
! ing from an unfavorable turn Of the
measles to appease the unerring law Of ma
turc. And thus we seelall ages are called
upon to drink the dregs of the bitter cup
and sooner or later the supplies of the
great warehouse OF nature will be cut OIL,
and we too must lay down this physical
form to emerge into the realms of hidden
mysteries, from whence none have re
turned to tell the tale.
Rev. w. p. Burnell, a Universalist min
lister from Cleveland, is in town soliciting
aid for the liquidation of the debt hang
ing over Bulchel College, of Akron, Ohio,
and expresses himself with the sanguine
expectation OF final success in the effort
the more liberal and advanced minds rem
dering assistance to that end.
| Later-Rev. Burnell delivered two very
interesting and elevating sermons Sunday
afternoon and evening, to good audiences,
in Grange Hall, on very short notice.
The entertainment given by the Band
boys and lady assistants, was attended
with success financially, the house being
well filed, notwithstanding the inclemen-
| ey of the weather and almost impossible
roads in the country the hadSome sum of
| fifty dollars was realized.
! Old Jack Frost is reaching his uuruly
fingers among the wheat roots, trying
their tenacity of lie, and to the farmer
who keeps his eye out for mischief, the
old fellow is an unwelcome guest, and
cause an indigo cOuntenance and friendly
expression, bnt the aspect of affairs may
soon change the elOnyate phisiognomist
to their wonted appearance, the husky
declamatiOns to song of joy, and the
hideous nightmare of the present vanish
away like the dew before the suns rays Of
4 June morning. So mote it be-
! Our schools close the present term this
coming week. the principal and subOrdi-
nate teacher acquitting themselves with
honor and general satisfaction to pupils
and parents. The short acquaintance with
the principal, Mr.. Cuff is of decided in
teresting character as teacher and gentle
man, and his intention of becoming per-
manent citizen and to share the general re-
sponsibilities OF our good character de-
termined by the intelligence honor and
true dignity of its citizens, we bid him
welcome. WATCHMAN.
