Mr. Lively left the following which
was wiitten scveiul days before the
final act.
“G, d bless my children, may Gotl
lake care of them and preserve them
1 can do nothing moie lor them, my
course is run and I am undone. May
God have mercy on iny soul I I* have
comnmlid many sins, sonic through
ignotance and some wilfully, and no
doubt crimes are imputed to me.
1 urn not guilty of; that is my pre
sentiment at this time and hangs
over me at like an Ijiris Fatuus,

mitul is strained all Ihe time till

I am sitting here iu the world in
pd'lt-ci terror, all abustd. 0 ! thou
giver of good, take iny children in
thy ciue and keep them, let not my
sins rest on them. I wish to forgive
everybody for every wrong done ine
under the bluff, uo relief of mental
agony no hope of relief! Ann has
been a good girl, 1 want her ;o keep
the three children together. '1 hey
all love her, and 1 want the children
to be good to her and mind her.
She has been u mother to them.
And may God pour his richest
blessings on tin rn, to try to be good
and get to Heaven at last.
To begin when young and hold
out to the eud. 1 want every child

1 would like to say more, but let
my name be forgotten us soon as
possible anil let the grave cover up
my many sins that I have committed.
Into thy hand do I commit my soul

It seems that the gubernatorial

MISERY.
When one man has nceive l a
kindness, a series ol kindnesses it
may be, and the man so rec iving
the benefit injures, or attempts to
injure his benefac or, then comes
the culmination of human miseiv
Mn earth. Tins is the exact material
perdition is made of. A tnan thus
acting, it takes him years to get back
the feeling ol a gentleman. The re
sult is, lie hates hid bentfuc or and
would murder him il he had the
Courage. But few instances ol this
Character ol a large s z •, are met with
during a iifo-tim . But thousands
are seen and felt too, in little tilings,
in ihe daily traas ciions of life.
A PRESENT.
Mijor S. F. Walla e of Jasper,
mean ted us lor the Canton Bapiial
church one dozen a >ng and tune
books, last Wedneslv. Tnis adds
another witness to the truth of adage
that, “a lriend in need is a friend
indeed.’’ We ntedeil these books
just exactly at this tune.
We assure Major Wallace that we
appreciate tide gift and in Dehall ol
ihe church we heartily thank him.
