DIED, Died, in thin village, on the 8th instant* Miss LOUISA J. ALLEN, in the 21st year of her ago. This young lady had been for several years a member of the Presbyterian Church, lieing possessed by nature of a sweet and gentle temper, grace fast approximated in her its perfect work. Her piety was deep, her life holy, and her example a lesson to all. She endured a painful illness with exemplary patience, and beheld the approach of death with calmness and even longing, having "a desire to depart and to be with Christ." She entered the dark valley ill triumph, and with linll^l..!nl.? I " =- " ,.~.w va> iivi ii|;c. 1 X'UUUS III till* eight, of the Lord is the death of hid saints." She luis left a widowed mother and n large eireleof near relatives and friends, wlio mourn lier early death ; but they "sorrow not as those who have 110 hope," for tliey have the blessed assurance that "for her to die was gain." This mournful event made a profound impression 011 the community, as exhihted in tlie suspension of business while the funeral cortege passed through the streets, in the large assembly gathered at her obsequies, and in the solemn countenances, tearful eyes, and saddened hearts with which the last rites were performed. No one there present* or who is informed of tho unearthly glories which crowned the last scene in her life, can have failed to reiterate the praver of Balaam. "Let il!/? ti>? i> of tile righteous, and let my Inst cud he like his." 11. Cut down in the bloom of youth, bv the band of violence, on the 2d day of April last, FELIX GLENN LIVINGSTON. He had just attained his 18th year, yet in him were happily blended the dignity of a man with the gentleness of a boy. He was unassuming, courteous, generous and brave. Deeply indeed is ho lamented by a large circle of friends and acquaintances, and bis untimely and melancholy fate has cast the deepest gloom over our little village.?Madison (F/a.) Messenger.
