-In New Orleans, on the 24th of Kebru- ,

year of her age.
It is a sad thing to record the death of one
we loved so dearly, yet such is life in the
hands of our Father who does all things well.
She was of a sweet disposition and a true
friend, confiding and unassuming in her man
ners, yet such was her purity of Christian
character and amiability, that to know her
was to love her; her death a triumphant one,
notwithstanding her sullerings. When the
angel of summons came with the rustling of
wings, she obeyed tho call and calmy passed
from earth to heaven.
“She has gone to heaven before us;
Bat she turns and waves her hand,
Pointing to the glories o’er Us,
In that happy spirit land.”
From iier mild disposition and exemplary de
portment, she had a place in the affection of all
who knew her. She is now safely moored to
that bright spirit land where lovely seraphs
are her associates. Our grief and eulogy ■
cannot reach her novy, hut her counsel we can j
keep, while her memory wi 1 long be green in
the hearts of those who loved her.
“Slie’3 gone in her beauty,
In silyiice to rest,
Like snow drops we folded
Her hands on her breast,
She lies like a statue
Of some Grecian nil,
With cheeks that are pallid
And a cold hushed heart.” _ M. S. B.
