At a meeting Of the Presbyterian Com
mittee OF Publication. held on the morn
ing of the death of the Rev. j. Il. Gam

The Committee OF Publication, before
the transaction OF any other business. at
this, its first meeting since the death
OF the Rev. William r. Richardson, ID.
d., desires to place on record Its deep
sense OF bereavement in the loss OF one
of its most valued members, endeared TO
them by 80 many attractive Christian
virtues. and so eminently qualified to adj
vance the work for which this commit
tee was organized.
'Dr. Richardson's excellent Judgment
with regard to the religious literatur ,
most needed by our people, his extensive
acquaintance with the best authors, sn-
Client and modern; his discriminating taste
as an examiner of the original produc-
lions submitted to the committee for
publication, as to their style. adaptation,
and intrinsic merit as well as his esti-
mate of che standard works most worthy
of republication, made him safe ana
wise counsellor In all that department OF
the work OF the committee.
His experience, also, IN business ar
fairs qualified him TO be a judicious adj
wiser in all the financial interests or the
committee, while his uniform courtesy
and gentleness OF manner rendered his
advice all the more welcome. and en-
deared him personally to every MEM
Der OF this body"
In the act Of giving expression to Its
sense OF bereavement In the loss OF DIR.
Richardson, the committee is almost over
whelmed by the tidings OF the death OF
another OF its beloved members, received
only few moments ago.
"Our dear and honored brother. Rev. j.
T. Cannon. has Just departed this life.
and no time is afforded US adequately to
portray the qualities which drew him to
our hearts and which now cause US 10
mourn that we shall see his face no more
at these meetings, where his attendance
was SO regular and his services so appre-
ciated. Unostentatious, sincere, tender
hearted. a lover Of good men, loyal
and devoted servant Of his Lord, In this
department OF Christian work, as wen
as I'm the ministry Of the Gospel, we
deplore our loss. and under this double
bereavement, we humble ourselves under
the Christening hand OF our Heavenly
Father, and entreat His grace to enable
us to show the same diligence to the
end ant to be followers OF those who
by faith and patience inherit the prom
ises.'" n. NJ. GILLIAN. Clerk.

form. and the election OF the Republican
candidates, with a confident belief that
united action will result in triumphant
victory at the polls.
whereas, the young men In every
