We announced in onr last number
the sad intelligence of the great loss,

the sanctity, therefor.*, of auy circle, j mid t« the iwoole that always treated
of trenching in any “
inanity also had sustained, when
Henry Oobia was called away.
We then mourned hoping—we
now tflonrn full of joy and comfort.
The Lord has done it; He removed
His servant at Hi* own chosen time,
and though we have lost, he has
gained, and wc are benefitted through
hie gain. Heaven and earth are con
sorted 5 the church on earth and tbe
church in heaven are one. W# aud
the saints in glory are brethren.
Qur brother died as Christian dig
ciples love to die. He died in the
full assurance of faith. He died
with gfory in bis sonl, with heaven’s
bright fields aeen with his soni’s eyes,
while heavenly hallelujahs were
floating around him.
A fellow-believer wrote u* the
other day: “You have heard of the »"<> the conviction that the
heavy loss our church has sustained e *® rc “* of th,w am " lli,ir " ! ' houl ‘ 1
in the death of Mr. Cobia. It i* a
mysterious providence involves
much—there ia a solemn pause—
who at this juncture can supply his
place. Yon have heard, doubtless,
of his triumphant end—he preached
Christ hs a dy ing believer only could
preach. Hut invocations to those
around hiae—bin utterances of the
peace and joy that Billed his soul in
spired those aronnd him with a feel
ing almost akin to wonder. God
grant that such a testimony to the
power of religion to sustain and
elevate may not be lost in the gloom
which his removal creates. May-
God teach ns to trust, when we can
not trace.”
We see it, we grasp it through faith.
Is it not written : “Precious in tlie
night of the Lord is the death of his
saints.” Aud so will the death of
this saint be, We feel it, we are con
fident. (for Brother works for
Christ and tho Church nearer tbe
throne.
Throughout tho Church in South
Caroliua, foe Minted brother was
well knows. Pnr yesrs be and his
aged pkstor attended together tbe
meetings of Synod. Many there
learned to kuow, to esteem, and love
him. Wc say to them: Live as be
