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

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 friend very soon after they were uttered; and
truly was his own death triurnphant and "glo.
