OBITUARY. q "Mark the perfect man. and bkhold the up e right, for the end of That man is peace." d On Tuesday the 10th Instant the Res JOHN M. BOBE.RTS died at his residence in Greenville Village, aged 43 years and 9 day. With those who knew the deceased, the 1mere Annonneement of his name and Isis deati s would suggest the most eloqueut onlogium ans a most affecting emotions. To do justice to hi t haracter'in a brief paragraph were impossible Again and again does the eye meet with writei n tributes to the-dead, and often the most high 0 wrou t are only the offpring of too partia s friendhip or proud afflction. SEuch cannot be i the present instanee. With Mr. Roa-rs, hi life was even betterthan Isis fame, good as tha ' was, and his character higher than any praise d we can bestow, huweivis warm anJ devote lmal n be-our an'etion. Mr. RossaTe had been for many years a pion member of the Babltist Church, and an ordainer d Minister of the Gospel. He walked worthy lib . "high calling;" distinguished for a remarkable 8 memory and strong judgment, his preaching ap plied with faithfulness and instructive fore- the Slessons of the Scriptures to the practical dutie C, of his fellow men. He taught by example a well as precept. being "fruitful in every good Sword and work."-"not a hearer only, but a do. or of the word." lie was liberal of his means 0 never refusing-a just call on his purse or his timi a for the bene~t of his fell ow men. He was "giv n en to hospitality." He was meek and humbi< in spirit, but at the same time "steadfast, im movemble, always aboundinig In the work of thi *, Lord." is life was not that of the seclude< . hermit. The relations ho bore as a husband brother, friend and citison, were adorned witi dthe brightest christain virtues.. A large portios of his I fe was connected with the mieroantili )- business, which he conducted witis such judg y ment and probity as to realise from it a hand some competency; and at the same time win the it highest ccnfidence and esteem of his cnmtome, tand the community generally.--Mr. Rossar never permitted passion and prejudice to govera e his better judgment, and hcnce the utmost defers >. once was paid to his opinions, and he wan oftes scalled on to adjust the business transactions o his friends, and in responding to these numeron calls the high qualities of his head and heart wers aseen and felt. Conscientiousuess sat suprems arbiter when the decision was made. *Mr. Roesars has been fur more than twelvr r months in declining health. is. disease waa . such that he sufered no pain, for which hi g thanked God on hisedying bed. For a few weekj it beoehis latday he was confined to his bed He beae aware, some days before hiss death -- that his final hour was near, and ona Saturday hr d seemed particularly impressed, end deliberatal3 d called fer his near relatives and friends to assm e ble around his bed. His vigorous and heal~h1 mind was nevermore bright nor his temper more calm. Hie desired, as he said, whilst strengtt it remained, to say a few words to those aronum him. After addressing the most sensible anc * feeling language to his wife, to his brothers, sip e toe and other., appropriate to each one, he ox. c laimed, "It is a solemn thing to die!" and ther n pausing a moment, with a brightened eye, anc more forcible emphasis, he added, "strr rr ii A or~oazous imlEs ro al-solemn to the mar who has nothing to look to, hut glorious to hsrr -who is looking to his Saviour Jesus Christ-I itrust I am looking nowhereselse. I leave thu *r world writh confidence. I have for a long timei endeavored to withdraw my affections from it My heart is content wish what I have enjoyec of it. Death i a glorions thing If you oar only die right!" These words were penned by a friend very soon after they were uttered; and truly was his own death triurnphant and "glo. S rione." He afterwardis, from inoreasing weak ri ness. never conversed except to answer briefi) a question, but seemed to retain hIs senses. He finally died without a groan, and apparent' S ly without apng ortuge. 1) On Wednesday the b of Mr. Rosarm iwas borne to the Babtist Chneh, where thi funeral srvicse were conducted lgy the Rev Mr. Nloraras, Pastor of the Cherch, assisted - by the venerable SAnuar.
