-JJ. For the Camden Journal. A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE. BV LAirRIE TODl>. Id New York, in 1796. my store was in Maiden Lane, within three doors of the store of John Mowatt, an extensive dealer in shoes. His Foreman was John I'elsue, who sat behind the counter stitching shoes and waiting on customers as they Kteppcd in. One day a corpse was fiund in the dock, at the foot of the sheet . The?Coroner took Ihe jurymen from the neighliorhood, and atuong them, John Mowatt and his Foreman. John I'elsue. The corpse lay on a table in the centre of the room. Some of the jurymen remarked that as soon as John I'elsue looked on the corpse, he started, turned pale, and looked as if going to | f?int. He rallied, however; but his subsequent movements occasioned some curious remarks. ' The jury having rendered a verdict of death by ^ drowning, were discharged. Mowatt turned round to look for ftis Foreman. Behold he was not there. We 8tep|R*d out of doors, and saw him high up the street, 011 a half run, when he quickly turned a corner. All sorts of inquiries were made, but nothing could be heard of him. This, with his turning pale at the first view of the corpse, occasioned some strange surmises among the jurors for tuauv days hence. John Mowatt was a bachelor of thirty-five, and I'elsue had seen about thirty . cummers. On a certain day. al?ut one month thereafter, a lad^ in deep mourning stepped mm .uhiv.iu s store and asked for a pair of shoes. While John was trying how the shoe fitted! the lady enquired, " You, had a man in your store, John lVlsue by name?what is Itecome of him F " Yes," says Mowatt, "hut what has become of him I would give a pood deal to learn." lie then related the | story as above stated. "Strange!" replied the ladv. "And you have not seen him since J" "No," replied Mowatt; "I have not seen him since."? * \ es, you have seen him," replied the lady. " I 1 certainly," says Mowatt, " would not contradict a ^ lady of your appearance: but I have not seen him to my ,k no fried ge." " Well, then," says she, " I am John Pelsue: and that subject on whom we held the jury, was the corpse ot my husband. My , family name is Randall. I was born in Philadelphia. I married (against the wishes of my parents) John Conner; a sober, industrious man, by trade a shoemaker. We lived happily for two years. He took to drinking, neglected his busi- j iiess, and once struck me, while in liquor. We j had no family; so I resolved, while we were stitching eho*? together, to learn his trade and leave him. ,1 soon made a passable shoe, when I assumed,the male attire, came to New York, and you gave me work as journeyman. The rest you Know?" John told tin? present narrator, some days *4fter, that on hearing this, he was dumbfnvndrd. "Well, madam,"says John, " what are your plans for the future?" Savs she. "I have not f>rme<l aiiy plan." " Well,* says John, " I liked you as journeyman, ami when my foreman. I was pleasedr?suppose now we go into partnership for lifer Iu fouty-eight hours thereafter they were married. She was a fine looking woman, and mitrht Tiave passed for twculy-five. Tliis, perhaps, is the first instance on record of j a woman's sitting as Coroner's juryman on the corpse'.of her husband. The above is a simple tale of truth. I was witness to all the facts. GRANT THORBURX. Camden, March, 1850. ' TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. At a regular meeting of Wateree Division, No. 9, held ou Thursday evening, 14th inst., the following Preamble and Resolutions were otFt red by Bro. J. B. Kershaw, W. P., and unanimously adopted, the brethren all standing. Though Death is incident to all, and of too frequent recurrence to find man at any time entirely unprepared for his advent in some loved quarter; yet there are occasion* when blank and terrible dismay must follow his announcement. When the closed bud of infancy is plucked from its stem to unfold its beauty and fragrance in celestial air, the parent stalk may bleed for a time, but the wound is soon healed with the gentle dew distilled from Heaven. When the aged and withered trunk has exhausted the fountains of productiveness, the more genial clime of another and a oetter worm, aione can revive us expansive oner-1 gies: And though the young scions which rejoiced 1 beneath its sheltering boughs may droop the while, they are soon refreshed with the gentle showers I and tenipered-winds of mercy. But when a noble. flourishing, far-reaching, deep-rooted and produci tive tree, around" whose strong branches many a clustering vine and clinging tendril, entwined for ' life, for protection and support, is suddenly hurled j from its deep foundation, snapping in a moment J all the strong cords which bound it to a s; h 're of j' incalculable usefulness, for many, many s-asons, |( the withered, torn and blighted throng of depend- ! ants cannot be healed, though the same storm I wnicu lore it away iroin meir ioihi enioraoe i ore ; it straightway to the celestial garden to flourish forever in perennial grandeur. Such are our emotions under the afflicting bereavement to which, in his impenetrable and mysterious wisdom, it has pleased Almighty God to subject us by the removal of our Dear Friend and Brother, James Robert MrKain, from a position of great usefulness, in this Division and in this com- ' muiiity, over which lie presided as its Municipal ' head. Plunging from the hunting deck of the Orline St. John, he lost his yfe in the vain effort to rescue . from the waves, his aged' Mother, who perished J with her devoted son on the olh instant, in the Alabama River..*. ; Born in Camden on the third day of Nov. 1811, _/ 4. j j _ 4i* n. i) 4'. i* . ...i. ?i - i:r. pi rr^jM citm aim rciiiniiiur i tirriii.^ ihn \\uoir iiip was passed in our midst, and we well knew its ! . value. Success in business attended his untiring indns- . trv and energy .'"and enabled him to illustrate his j life by an active but judicious benevolence ofs which many can practically speak. A firm and uncompromising discharge of all his dutjee, public and private, rendered him a most { valuable citizen and characterized his administration of many offices of honor and usefulness to which lie was called from time (u time by the People of Camden. He was an unobtrusively pious and consistent ' christian, and a inemlier ofthePrcsbyteriaii church, of Camden. lie was a most exemplary and devoted Son of Temperance, one of the principal founders of this Division, and its second presiding officer?a member of the Grand Division, Deputy Grand Worthy j 1'atriari-h and Grand Treasurer, find wielded irrent i pifluence in the counsels of that body. Hut rcrently called upon to part from the Ix-lovfd wife of his bosom, he leaves six young orphan piiildrm. an aged Father, a Brother and Sisters to lament hj,s joss. With them it become.* us to mourn. Be it there- j fore Rctolrcd, That this Division I sustained an < irrenarabjp I06S in the death of Bi . James Robert , Me Kain. Resolred, That in respect to bis memory the members of this Division will wear the usual badge ^ of mourning for thirty days. RcsoIt'J, That we tender our respectful sympathies to the family of the deceased and with them deplores common calamity. * Renolred, That a page of our R'-cord book be inscribed wjth this tribute to his worth. That t? be published in tlie Camden Journal and the So. Carolina Temperance Advocate, and that the R. S. enclose a copy to the family of the deceased. Front the Minutes." Z. J. DeHAY, R. S. Council Chamber, March 9,1850. At an extra meeting of the Town Council of Camden, held this evening, present, Wardens, Rosser, Dunlap, Kennedy and Sutherland, on motion Warden Rosser took the Chair. The following Preamble and Resolutions were offered by Warden'Kcjiinedy, which were unanimously ado]>ted, after which the Council immediately adjourned : PREAMBLE. Convened in our accustomed place of meeting:, the jTown Council of Camden have heard with most profound regret, the calamity which has befallen this community, in the removal, by a sudden and appalling death, of the head ol this Corporation, our able Intendant the Hon. Jamf.s R. McKain. Closed for aver is that eye which beamed intelligence. Cold that heart which beat with every noble impulse that adorns our Nature. Ever watchful of the interests confided to his keeping, he presided with a dignity, and administered the laws with an impartiality that commanded otir admiration. Elevated to the position he occupied by the confidence of his fellow citizens he took a warm and active concern in whatever tended to promote the welfare of the Town ofhis nativity. As a Magistrate he was indeed a terror to evil doers, and a praise to them that do well. Possessing in a remarkable.degree the confidence and esteem of the community we deplore his untnnely death as a public loss?leaving a void which few can fill. Recognising as we do the Hand of God in this sad bereaveufent. who does all things after the counsel of his own Will, we humbly bow with submission to his Providential dealings while we offer our sincere condolence to the afflicted family. lie it therefore. Resulted 1st. That the members of the Town Council of Camden have heard u hh the most poig naut regret ot the death of our lntenaaut me not:. i Jas. R. McKnin. That we view his demise as a public loss. 2nd. Resolved. That we will ever bear in grateful recollection the urbanity and kindness which characterized his official intercourse with this body. 3rd. Restored, That we offer our most sincere condolence to the immediate family, and pray that the blessing of Ileaven may rest upon his orphan children. 4th. RtsoUfd, That a blank page on our Rook of Record, with the name, age, time, place, and cause of death, of our departed friend, be dedicated to perpetuate his memory. 5th. RcsnUnl, That the members of Council wear the usual badge of mourning thirty days. 6th. Resolved, That a copy of the above Preamble and Resolutions be conveyed to the family? and published in the Cauiden Journal. From the Montreal Transcript, July 22, 1813. We think it but due to f)r WiKtar that we should but add our testimony to numerous oilier* n.i to the extraordinary merits of hi* medicine in certain cures, particularly where the patient lias complained of pin in the !?idef or in cases of tin axthnialiral character. We are personally actpiainied with many persons who have experienced immense relief from the use of thin medicine, when laboring under the disease* nbove mentioned : and a* the changeable climate of Gunnda these di'eases nre more than usually common, any medicine calculated to counteract them must he of value. We arc aware that it has a larg' nnd still increasing sale, and lias been very generally and beneficially tt?cd since its introduction into Canada three years ago, and the very fact of its having' stood the test of three years' experience is proof of its value. We a.e not in the habit of rccoinm*nding ptent medicines unless the benefits conferred by them come under our own ijtservation; but in the present inslanbc wc can recommend WlKTAll'S BALSAM of WILD G'HKRRV as a medicine worthy of the confidence of the public in diseases of the chest and side, and in many cases in this city severe Coughs have yielded toils iufiuenrc.
