EDWIN &ARGAN. At a regular church meeting of the Etenrzer Baptst Church, the following remarks and resolutions were offered 1 y Dr. J. H. Blackwell, and unanimously ado ted: Brother Moderator and Biethren: I rise to peform a solemn and affecting dntv. Solemn, in consequence of the nature of th se reflections which the occasion ne cessarily calls up; and affecting, terause the subject of tliese remarks had wound himself around the hearts of us all. Since our last church conference, it has pleased an all-wise Providence to lake fibm our little circle a beloved brother. In 'In* death, of brother William Edwin Dargan, each member of this church, each memter of this community has sus tained an individual, an irreparable loss. In the vigor and bloom of manhood, in the midst of a life of iTseiiiliiess, surroun ded by those whom he lovt*d and cherish ed, whose purse and person, and whose every energy were devoted to the service of our God, he has been suddenly lakon Irom among us. Leaves have their time to fall, And flowers to wither at the north wind's , breath, And the stars to set: But all— Thou hast all seasons for thine own, O death! To our eyes, which cannot penetrate the dim vista of futurity, nor comprehend the mysterious dealings of God with his creatures, his death may appear prema ture; but a Christian cannot die tefore his time; the Lord’s appointment is the servant’s hour. And God, who overrules the destiny of his own church, hath chas tened us in love, and doubtless bath vis ited us with this calamity for our good.
