Departed this lift', on Monday evening 1 <3th July, at his Futhc-rs residence in Anderson District, Major Joux Jamks Non kik, aged 25 years 0 months 27 days, of typhus fever, by which ho wns confined to liis chamber about three weeks. Previous to this attack, he was almost on entire s1 ranger to disense of any kind; and his prospect for a long and prosperous life was doubtless equal to any he left behind him. Having seen him several times during his illness, I saw but little appearance of a change, till within u short period of the closing scone; then his noble, manly form, began to undergo a rapid and striking change?the strength of manhood, and freshness of youth, gave way to the feebleness of the dying, and paleness of the dead. What is human lift; ? "It i? a vapor that appeaveth for a little time and I hen vanishcth away." lie was a high-minded, honorable ypung man. lie was ardent in his affections, sincere in his attachments, attentive to the wants find wishes of his parents, beloved by his friends, and highly f*espectcd by the large circle of his acquaintance. The day of lib funem! will not soon be forgotten ; the multitudes who wmv. sis. i Komblcd to pny the last tribute of rcspcct to bis memory, while they looked upon him, for the last time, cold and silent in the arms of death, felt the fountains of their grief stirred within them. But this stroke fell with peculiar weight upon his bereaved parents?all the other children having left the family mansion-?bis vacant scat at the table, and at the fireside will often remind them nf rnwiftwwu (J'V of their loss. It might appear strange to shortsighted mortals, that one, with such blight prospects before him, should be cut down in tho morning of life. But "God's thoughts are not our thoughts." "What I do, thou knowest not now, but you shall know horeaf^p^.' Though his untimely departure may be painfully felt, and long remembered by bis friends, tbe evidence, thnt their loss will be his gain, should dry up the fountain of their sorrows. While bo enjoyed vigorous health, when no danger was nigh, he remembered bis Creator in the days of his youth ; and gave himself away to God in an everlasting Covenant, by making a public profession of faith i" Christ, Hefore his disease had assumed any alarming symptoms, in a private conversation with the writer, lie spoke of his affliction, as ''designed of God for some wises purpose." At n lator period he expressed a belief that through the grace of Qod his sins were pardoned and all would be well. Death to him had lost its terrors. Looking upward he said* "Heaven, sweet home, I shall soon be at home in heaven." Then taking each of hi.? friends present by the hand, bade them a calm, deliberate, affectionate farewell, exhorting each to meet him in heaven. He said, as he was young, he would like to live a little longer, but resigned himself wholly to the will of God. In death his countenance was calm, sereno. nnd composed, exhibiting a mnnly independence and self confidence, which seldom appears in life. Having no foars at to his own safety, hr: manifested dejp solicitude for the salvation of his friends; and offered up most fervent prayers, that they may be prepared for their latter end: and with the earnestness of a dying man, urged upon all n round him, to seek the solvation of their souls. On Sunday ho appeared to possess an unnatural strength, while in clear sad distinct tone?, ho pressed th<> FQlemi)itios of eternity upon the consideration of those about him. Jiyit before he ceased to speak, ho said, "friends weep not for me," then clasped bis hands and said, "0 death whore in thy stinir! O crave where is thy victory!" What ft lesson to young men "lo seek iirnt the Kingjrtoifi of God aw) his righte* pusncss!" P- WL mmammrnmwmtMmmm* - ? iwu?JH? i I^II mnwj FOREIGN NEWS. 13Y THE EUItOPA.
