The band of death in wanton mood Hath plucked, and left thee wither'd there. .Tis vain to mourn o'er hopes thus fled Sweet hopes that sleep in voiceless death! Tis vain to mourn thee o'er whose head Hath swept the dread dark angel's breath. But nature claims yet one fond tear To fall upon the new-made mound, Where the dear child that cheered us here Lies sleeping in the cold-cold ground. A father's, mother's tenderest care, And friends that watched her couch of pain, All could not keep within her there The wasting breath--No, all was vain! Time only round our hearts can weave Its sil'vry chain that calms all grief; But that green grave at twilight eve Will still be fresh on mcm'ry's leaf. We lay thee 'neath the old oak tree, The bright stars watch thy last long sleep; And winged angels mournfully About thy grave their vigils keep. Farewell, dear child! Sleep gently there, Far from the cold world's angry frown! - Farewell, our hope! I'll ever wear Thy little heart beside my own. OBTiAR 0BITUA R Y, DEPARTED, this life at his own residence in Edgefield District, WILLIAM CULBREATH, in the Seventy-third year of his age. The deceased, was the subject for years before his death, of painful affliction. For a long while, a frame, once robust, had been bowed by disease, and the loss, within a recent period, of a son of his old age, and of the companion of his bosom, for both of whom he cherished the warmest affec tion, imparted to his latter days a more than full measure of bodily pain and mental anguish. But he bore all this with exemplary fortitude and true Christian resignation. He was descended of Scottish ancestry whose family gave the name of Scotland to a section of * this District near the Saluda River, and some of whom were active partieipants in our struggle for independence. These were a fine race of men stalwart in body, of strong, vigorous minds, lofty and independent in their bearing, with traces of that high, proud spirit, characteristic of the na tion from which they sprang. The subject of this notice intermarried with -BEERSHEBA ABNEY, a widow of -ABNEY, and whose maiden name was POPE, a sister of the late SAMPSON POPE of this District, by whom he had two sons and a daughter, two of whom now mourn the loss of one of the best and most devoted of parents. WILLIAM CULBREATH was one of those rare characters, among the old-school gentlemen of our country, who possessed, without much parade or show, many of the highest and most estimable virtues. He was a most exemplary citizen, neigh bor and Christian: whose life presents mary stri king points for emulation-who lived as one hav ing no regrets for the past, and full of hope for the future-in whose bosom shone so conspicu ously the gentle graces of our nature, that it may safely be said be left not an enemy behind him. In all the relations of husband, father, friend, lie exhibited an affectionate kindness, a just forbear ance, a constant fidelity and a manly frankness, which made him at once the steadfast friend and faithful counsellor of all his neighbors. He ws the first to arbitrate and adjust all matters ofd ference among his acquaintance ; and it was se domi that strife, discord and contention failed to give way under the guidance of his prudent coun sels. lie was essentially and practically a peace mnaker. His mission was one of love and friend ship; and his conduct securedifor him the appro *' bation of all good men. " A man he was to all the country dear." for was a shining member of the Baptist Church frmore than fifty years, and died a communicant .and Deacon of Chesnut Ridge Church, within a short distanCe of his dwelling, of which Church he was one of the founders. As lhe had lived a Christian of deep piety, performing all his life the works of charity, so in his death the bright faith of the Gospel was beautifully illustrated by the heroic fortitude, the smiling benevolence .of soul he exhibited amid his dread hours of suffering and pain. It is said, that " the good men do, lives after them." How many will continue to bless the memory of this aged father, and hold up before their inmagination and the eyes of their children his many striking virtues as guides for the forma tion and improvement of future character. Whten a good man thus passes from his earthly pilurimage! it is fit that some tribute should be publicly p~aidl to his many excellencies of character. That here offered to. WuILLIAM Ct;LBREATU is very far beneath his intrinsic merits-but it may serve, in some die gree, to keep alive virtues, the very remenmbrace of which must have a salutary effect on the minds of his countrymen. A. M. DIED, 8th of June, at her Fathier's residence in this District, Miss ELIZABETH M. DEAN, aged 16 years and two months. The sufferings of the deceased were of short duration though most excruciating in character, which she bore with the characteristic fortitude of an humble Christian ; and though not a member of the Church militant yet, in her last lingering hours she gave abundant evidence that she was going to join the Church triumphant. Her earthly career, though short, was one of marked amiability and morality. 11cr last nmo - ments were spent consoling her parent with the happy thought that she was going to Heaven, where she would greet them, upon their arrival, in company with the holy angels, if they were butfaithaful to the end. A gloonm of sadness will linger about those whonm death has bereaved, yet whoen it is disarmed of its terrors, by the Prince of Peace, the Christian has great reason to praise him who gave, and has taken away. " And the parents gave in tears and pain, The flower they most did love; They knew they would find her safe again, In the fields of light above." ANNA. DAVIS' PAIN KILLER, This will certify, that about four years since, I was attacked with hoarseness at the lungs, a hard cough, and raising blood, with pain in the center of my left breasL: I was almost discouraged, but hearing what wonerful succcss friend D~avis met with in cering colds, coughs, pain in the sides. &2., I was induced to giv, his Pain Killer a fair trial. I was thent rai sing b~loodl from two to three times a day, and had been about six weeks. withotut cessation. I folloawed the directions, and to my satisfaction, my citughi soon gave way, the bleeding eenised, my pami remnovedl, and now I am enjoying a comfiortable degree of health: no pain about me. no cough. no 1bleedimg. and have a good appetite, Fleep sound, andt tindl my strength gaining and my flesh also inercasing : andi now. wheth, er I live long or not, I want everybtodyv to know what this invaluable medlicine, through the bilessing of Clod, has done for mec. I hare used it with eqlual success in my family for many other complaints for which it is recomended, and would most cheerfully reconmmend the above medicine to those who bave coldtannd coughs, espeilly those of long standing-never heg discour aged anid say you cannot be cured, until you have given Davis' Pain Killer a fair trial, as I have done.

Burnside. Hamburg, July 15, 6m 27 TO FEMALES. DEBILITY AND PROSTRATION OF SYSTEM, NERVOUSNESS, PAIN IN.BACK AND LOINS, bc., &c. As a remedy for weak and deliilitated Females, there are few, if any, equal to BLI4S' DYSPEPTIC REMEDY. Its action is prompt and effectual, and unlike nearly all other tonic preparations, such as iron, bismuth, acids, bark, &c., whose action is at tended with more or less of irritation and excitement to the system, is purely a tonic, and entirely free from any irritating qualities, and, from thidfact, is peculiarly applicable to those cases of long continued debility, so frequently met with among females. It will be remembered that nine out of every ten of those cases of long continued debility, arise from dis ease of the stomach. Debility, loss of strength, lan guor and prostration of system, are mere symptonie of disease, a disease which in a great majority of cases, is in the noucNs membrae of the stomach, and to this membrane should remedial treatment be directed, that the cause may be removed, and with It the prostration of system. It is very frequently asked, How long must I take the Remedy ? How long will it take to cure me ? These are very hard questions to answer; for the du ration of treatment will depend very much upon the patient-her temperament, condition, and state of the system. It should be remembered by every female that the disease which they look upon as "general debility " and prostration of the powers of the sys tem, has been growing upon them perhaps for years, and of course time must be allowed for the system to grow back uagain into a state of health. The system, under the influence of this Remedy, will very soon recruit itself; but miraculous cures must not be looked for, even if it is Bliss' Dyspeptic Remedy they are ta king. It would be too much to expect of this or any other Remedy, that a disease which has been growing upon the patient and taking deeper and deeper root into the system, year after year, shall be cured in a few days, or even in a fewr weeks. .Although its good effects will be experienced in a very short time, yet the restoration to health is always a slow and gradual process, for an entire changa..has to be wrought throughout the whole system,-the impoverished blood must be implroved both in quality and quantity--all suppressed and deficient secretions restored-tone, strength and vigor given to the muscular system--the vervous systeia, braced up; and to bring about all these changes, not only a good remedial agent must be made use of, but time must necessarily be had for the system to bring about such great and important changes. Let these facts be remembered by all pa tients, whether they take Bliss' Dlispeptic Remedy or any other preparation-let it be remembered that time is absolutely necessary to the system in bringing about so munch chanuge, and thme restoration to health. Let it lso bec remnemabered in the taking of this Remedy that there should be in perseverance and regularity, and as meh of the auxiliniry treatmnent carried out as cir eummstnees will admiit or. If this is done, the patticnt mty rest assured that there will be a gradlual und1 steady improvement; the debility and prostration, and the whole categotry of little pains and aches, pains in the back, loins, thee, head, &c., wilt all gradually. subside. I am very frequently inquired of whether it would not be well to titke some of the preparations i con junctioni with the Remedy. No; take nothing, for youi ned nothing else; and besides, thme prepiarations of iron, bismuth, &c., would, in a great many cases, produce only an additional irritation of the stomnch, the very thing that you are trying to get rid of; and not only this, those p~reparations would do no good, for they wouhld not be takeni into the circulation fronm the closed state of the mouths of the hactacl vessels, which I have already described in my previous adver tseents. In conclusion, let me once more assure every female, that by a steady and persevering taking of the Remedy. she miny have every hope of recove ry; but unless, when its use is conninencedl, there be a determination to take it regularly, I woubil not adlvise the trial of it, as neither the proprietor, nor those having it for snle, desire any one to take it unless they do so in good faith.
