t)iod, in Putnam Cos., at the residence of i
Joint Rousseau, Scn’r., on Finlay morning
the twenty-fifth of July 1845, Andrew
Jackson Cowan, of inflammation of the
brain* Infant son of Fraklin Cowan, of
Stewart Cos., Ga., aged fifteen months.
Hied, at her residenco in Putnam coun
ty, on the 22d instant, of an affection of the
lungs, Mrs. Elizabeth Underwood, sister
of l)r. James Tinsly, in the 68th year of
her age. Mrs. Underwood was the (laugh.
tei of Rev. David Tinsley, a Baptist minis
ter, who emigrated from Virginia to Geor
gia, when Mrs. U. was quite young, and
settled in Columbia cqunty. She inter
married with Mr. Underwood, and shortly
alter settled in Putnam county, where they
lived together, in great harmony and con
nubial affection, forty years; raised a fami
ly of children in great respectability, and
died lull of years, endeared and beloved by
all who knew them. Mrs. U. was a pious
and consistent member of the Baptist
Church for near fifty years, and adorned the
profession which she made by a well ordered
walk and a godly conversation. Her piety
was of that silent and unobtrusive charac
ter, which strongly impresses the beholder
—*vrw tteruiicur or tnc
bumble disciple of the Savior, and won for
Iter the enviable distinction of an Israelite,
in whom there is no guilt. She died, as
site had lived, a firm believer in the doc
trines of the gospel, and with bright hopes
of a blissful immortality beyond the grave.
“Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the
death of II is saints.”
“ The soul of our mother it gone
To heighten the triumphs above ;
Exalted to Jesus’ throne,
And clasped in the arms of 11 is love.”
Died, in Muscogee county, Ga., on the
lath of July, Mi. Edmond Kelly, in the
45th year of his ago. Hu had been a mem
ber of the Baptist Church at Bethel, Mus
cogee county, about 11 years, during which
time lie was a pious and devoted Christian.
His aflliction, though short, was very dis
tressing, yet he bore his suffering with
Christian patience and resignation to the
will ol God ; and, as his dissolution (hew
near, his faith seemed to be strengthened
in the Lord. He was blessed with a con
sciousness of his acceptance with God; he
told his dear wife that ho could not stay
with Iter, but she would soon come to him:
ho called his children to his bed-side, ex
lnnlud them to try to meet him in heaven,
and took ‘lie two eldest by the hand anti
asked them if they would promise him to
try to be religious.—He has left an affec
tionate wife and eight children to mourn over
llioir loss, but their loss is, as we humbly
trust, his eternal again. May the bereaved
wile bo enabled to feel, through life, that
the Lord God is a sun and shield, and that
lie will give grace and glory—and no good
thing will lie withhold from them that
walk uprightly ; and may the children of
our departed brother seek the Lord while
’ lie may be found, and call upon Hint
while hois near, that they may all meet in
heaven, where parting will be no more, is
the prayer of the humble writor.

Died, in Houston county, Ga., at the resi
dence of 11. Hargrove, Esq., Auoi'stink,
daughter of Adon and Elel'are Scarborough,
some 21 or 22 years of age. The parents
of die deceased reside in Pulaski county,
and she left home (the house of her father)
probably on the 21st day of April last, ac
companied'by her uncle and aunt, Mr. and
Mrs Hargrove, at whose house she died,
and with whom 3he expected to remain
some few weeks longer, and then return
home to the loud embraces of her honored
parents. Isut alas ! she is gone ! Her
earthly house of this tabernacle having been
dissolved, she has a building of God, an
house not made with hands eternal in the
heavens. The deceased was taken ill on
Thursday evening, the 3d instant; and on
Tuesday, the Bth, at 0 o’clock, she fell
asleep in the arms of her Savior, wl'.oui she
was not ashamed to own. She informed
her friends, some little time before her exit,
that she should die and go-to heaven*. She
was somewhat troubled in mind, fearing
that she should not seedier father and moth

g ai * A FRIEND.
Died, in Morgan county, on the 25th in
stant, Mrs. Eliza A. Gunn, consort ofMr.
Daniel G. Gunn, in the 31st year of her
age. Her attack was sudden and violent,
(as she lived a little over fifty hours only
aftei its invasion,) which displayed itself
with frightful and potentous energy. Phy
sicians were soon summoned to her: they
were alartred at her danger, and were assi
duous in their attentions—hut they had to
mourn the iiripotency of their resources,
and the imbecility of their art. When
Death, commissioned to destroy, stretches
forth his sceptre, and demands his victim,
vain aTC all human means in this unequal
conflict. Like the vessel, gallantly speed
ing o’er the booming waves, Ire glued with
the rich productions of every clime, on
which the destructive typhoon comes to
| burst its fury, over whelmed with the surg
ing deep—no skill of the pilot can save, or
i the brave exertions of her intrepid crew
l aveit.
Mankind have vainly striven to reverse
the immutable decree of corruption that has
been pronounced upon bis earthly taberna
cle, by which it is doomed to the dust.
“ Dust thou art, and to dust thou shall le
nmi,” is me irrevocable sentence from
which no mortal lias found immunity. In
voluntarily we shudder at the giavethat
closes our earthly career, as though its
gloom was irradiated by no light bursting
through the portals of another world. That
we thus rebel against our fate and war with
our destiny, is from nature. Science and
religion in vain inculcate that Lite exanimate
frame is but as the clod of the valley, and
that the remembrance of the world is the
emptiest of vanities. We cannot at once
forget that the lifeless corpse was the cen
tre and object of our love, of our hopes and
fears, our pains and pleasures, our tender so
licitudes and affectionate anxieties. We
cannot at once divorce it from our hearts,
and dismiss to forgetfulness, tearless and
without emotion. The memory wo cher
ish, and the virtues we revere, we endeavor
to rescue from the oblivious wave that
sweeps o er the myriads of ihchuman race.
We bestow no unjust eulogy on our de
parted friend, when we say thatshc wasan
affectionate and devoted wife, mother, sis
ter and daughter. Her heart was the cen
tre of all that lent a charm to this life.
Having adorned the religion she professed,
we cannot doubt that her immortal spirit
has been transported to a purer and better
world, where theic is joy unceasing and
never eliding.
She left a disconsolate husband and five
small children, an aged mother and other
relatives, to mourn her melancholy loss;
hut they “ mourn not as those who have no
hope.” y.

29th of June, at 13 minutes past 10 o’-
clock in the morning, Mrs. Elizabeth
Ciiivers, widow of Joel Olivers, formerly
of Wilkes county, Ga., in the 78th year of
her age. Sister C. was baptized more than
10 years ago, at Philips’ Mill, by the Rev.
Jesse Mercer, and most eminently udorned
the profession which she then made. She
was permitted, before her death, to witness
the hopeful conversion of every child she
had, and welcome each as a mo in he t of the
household of her faith. Her last illness
was short, but characterized by unusual
strength of faith and joyful manifestations.
Her exhortations and prayers can never be
forgotten. The death-bed of sister C. has
given to the world another bright example
of thu reality and power of the Christian
religion. She was truly a praying Chris

The Suspicions Disciple.
A. How did you like that sermon last
evening?
B. Not at don’t want to hear such
preaching as that.
A. Why not?
B. Why not? why, because I don’t.
A. Because you don’t is no leason, you
know. What objection had you to the ser
mon?
B. What objection ? Why, l’tn sure
any body might know that I’d dislike such
preaching,
A. Well, but why did you dftlike it? I
saw nothing to dislike in it—l was much
pleased with it.
B. Perhaps it might have pleased you
well enough, but 1 hate such kind of preach
ing- S
A. You don’t give tnc any reason for
not liking the sermon,
B. Well, do you think a minister has
any right to abase one in preaching ?
A. Abuse one? To be sure not. But
what do you mean ? The minister did not
abuse any body yesterday, did he?
B. Yeshedid; he meant me. “c
A. Meant you? How so? I don’j
understand you.
B. I know well enough how it is. Our
minister told him about me, tlu*
reason lie presetted “about family prayers, j
A. Yes, yes—l understand now ; I see
thro’ it. You have been neglecting the
family altar. There is the trouble with
you.
B. Well, suppose I have—lie ought not
to be so personal.
A, Personal ? I’ve no idea lie meant
you in particular. The fact is, your con
science dondcinoeti you. You have ne
glected duty, ami have become cold and
backslidden; and now, instead of being so
suspicious that every minister who ex
changes with our pastor prepares his sef
mons particularly for you, I would advise
you to try to improve from the preachdd
word. You must think yourself a very
important man ; for yon say tlrat our pastor
lias you in view in at least half of his ser
mons, and every minister that exchanges
with him, preaches ono scimon, ai any
rate, for your special benefit. Now I tell
you what it is—just drop all your suspicions
at once, and do your duty, and act life
Christian, and you will get along nuteft
better than you now do.— Ch. H utch.
A Dialogue.
Minister. —My dear sir, you have beet
living for forty years in irrel'igion, do yoi
not think it is high time to he making sonn
preparation for an eternal world ?
Parishoner. —f can do nothing of my
self, I must wait God’s lime.
Minister. —Then, I presume, you in ;
tend lo remain perfectly satisfied with yoiflt
impenitent condition, until what you cal
“God’s time” conies J
Parishioner. —Undoubtedly sir, fcandi
nothing else.
That night the Parishioner was takf.ti
sick, nigh unto death, and being- terrified
at bis approach to eternity, lie sent a ines-j
senger in all haste for the minister, when’
the dialogue was resumed.
Minister. — Why this alarm* Convin
ced of your inability to do any thing, are
you not satisfied to remain quietly until
God’s lime shall conic?
Parishioner —Oh, sir, fit was a mere
excuse, f [always flattered myself ihat
when I should come to die, I would repent
and turn to God. 1 never really felt my
inability until now, and conscious that
less God shall help, I shall forever perish ;
my soul is in agony, and I wish you to help
mg supplicate t+m Almighty to aid me in.
this kwful hour.
The minister prayed fervently ; the par
ishioner in agonizing ‘petitions besought
the Lord ; their prayer was heard, and
sinner was not only saved, but he lived to;
tell his fellow sinners, that if. They eeafly’
fell the inability w-hk.li iney so readily plea
ded as an excuse for their itnpenitency,
they would he terrified at their condition,
and plead with God for inercy in strong
cries and tears.
Behold he Prayeth.
Mr. M. addressed a man whom lie found’
near his house, in a kind manner, telling,
him the object of his visit, but met with a
cold insulting repulse. Alter the first vol-|
ley of abuse had passed he requested per
mission to converse with his family.* The

61 emigration will set thither with great ra
pidity ; and it is peculiarly important in the
origin of settlements to lay a good founda
tion for their future prosperity. To meet
the wants of this important field, there is
needed, and there will be needed, a
increase of faithful ministers of the gospel,
who are prepared to endure hardness as
good soldiers of the cross; and a great en
lafgedness of heart in the churches of the
land, with a correspondent increase of lib
erality, that the fruit of their bounty may
appear in the extension of the kingdom of
Christ with the extension of our territory.
There can be no doubt that the Piopu
gunclu at Rome are prepared to make a
vigorous effort to plant and extend there
the principles of their corrupt faith. And
shall protestant churches look silently on
without moving a finger to counteract their
designs? The subject appeals strongly to
our Board of Domestic Missions, and to all
our churches, to furnish that Board with
the means necessary for the proper occtt
npney of the land.
t Northern and Southern Men. —There is
much truth in the following contrast drawn
by a Macon correspondent in the Southern
Cultivator :
“There is this essential difference in the
habits of a Northern and Southern man:
The one, whet Iter in Connecticut or in
Georgia, if he removes here permanently,
thinks in the first place of making himself,
as Baillie Nicol Jarvic says, “wbat he calls
comfortable.’’ Then he looks out as keenly
as other men for the ways and means of
getting rich, but he must be comfortable
while he is doing it. Every thing must be
; neat and tidy about him. The other, with
, out any systematic economy, is indifferent
about the present, and lives altogether in
the hope ol realizing a fortune in the future,
when he expects to live as he pleases : and
when thaj.time nrrives, habit has grown to
be second nature—and as to the enjoyments
of life, lie is no belter off than when he be
gan, “Always to be, but never blest.”
Frequently careless even in his personal at
tire, and always slovenly in the arrange
ment of his house, out-houscs, gates, fences
and grounds.
‘J\> Preserve Milk. —At this warm sea
son it may be interesting to some of our
readers to know wltal Johnson, in his Ag
ricultural Chemistry, says : “Aneasy way
of preserving milk or cream sweet lor a
long linte, or of removing the sourness
when it has already come on, is to add to it
a small quantity of the common soda, pearl
ash, or magnesia of the shops. Enough :is
added, when a little of the milk poured in
to boiling water no longer throws up and
cjtrd. If milk be introduced into bottles,
be then well corked, put into a pan of cold
water and gradually poised to the boiling
point, and after being allowed to cool, be
taken and. set away in a cool place, the
,milk may be preserved ncrf<ii-.ily sweet for
Upwards oThalf a year.” He says, anoth
er mode is. lo evaporate it lo dryness by a
gentle heat, and constant stirring, fly this
means dry mass is obtained which my lie
preserved for a length of time, and which,
when disssolvcd in water, is said to possess
all the properties of the most excellent milk.
It is known tn Itniy by filename aUutteina.
.dn Antidote for Red-bugs. —Take a
quantity of whale oil, and about the saute
quantity of lard or tallow, simmer them a
few minutes together, so they wilt mix.
Apply the mixture with a feather or a line
hush to the crevices and joints of the bed
steads, and these vermin will not only de
setl the bed, but leave the room. Try it.
