SOUTHERN BANNER: MARCH 5. 1878. « The Mill Will Never Grind Again.” Listen to the water-mill, all the live-long day— How tho creaking of the wheels wean the hoora away! Languidly the water glides, useless, on and still, Never coming back again to that water-mill; And a proverb haunts nay mind, as the spell is cast— The mill will never grind again with the water that has passed. Take the lesson to yourself, loving heart and true, Golden years are passing by, youth is passing too— Try to make the most of life, lose no honest way; All that you can call your own lies in this to-day, Power, intellect and strength, may not, cannot last— The mill will never grind ogoin with the water that has passed. Oh, the wasted hours of life, that have flitted by! Oh, the good we might have done— lost without a sigh! Lova that we might once have saved with a single world, Thoughts conceived, but never penned, perish ing unheard! Take the lesson to your heart—take, oh, hold 4 fast! The mill will never grind again with the water that has passed. The Dead Pope. BISHOP LYNCH'S PANEGYRIC AT PIIII.A- HKLPHIA. [From the Philadelphia Press of the 22.] Very solemn and imposing were the services yesterday morning at the Cathedral for the repose of the soul of the late sovereign Pontiff, Pius IX. The interest was heightened by the announcement that the most Reverend Archbishop \V ood, who has recently recovered from his severe illness, would be present to participate in the ceremonies, and would" be assisted by a number of distinguished prelates from this and neighboring cities. Though the services were not to commence until half-past 10 o’clock, the doors of the sacred edifice were besieged at an early hour, and by 9 o’clock the pave ments were completely packed with men, women, and children, who were anxous to gain admittance, and. diffi culty being experienced by thooe en tering the Episcopal residence, it celebration of the Mass the altar boys, acolytes, and clergy all held lighted tapers. Bishop Lynch, at the conclusion of the muss, ascended the pulpit and proceeded to deliver the panegyric, which in substance was as follows: Is there anything more solemn, more touchirg, and, to an intelligent mind, moro suggestive than t u e grand fact which the world those days is witnesss? Two hundred millions of the children of the church in every land and clime under the sun, gathering around their hundreds of thousands of altars, raising their chant of mourning, sending to Heaven > their prayers of grief and supplicatiou rfor their spiritual father, taken from I them all; one whom they revered as the vicar of Christ, and loved with a tender love as if he were their per sonal relative. It tells us—it makes us feel—the grand unity of faith and of charity, of mind and of heart, which actuates the world-spread Catholic Church. Who is lie whoso death so moved the world ? Thirty- two years ago he was elevated to the Pontifical Throne, and the world re joiced ; and from that day down his life has been a public life. His words were heard and his acts seen of all men. He welcomed all, as a common Father. Who, whether Catholic, Protestant, Israelite, or Infidel, who has ever knelt before him and re ceived his holy blessing, hut remem bers to-day the sweet blefs'ng of that old man ? The speaker then sketched the life of the late Pope from his in fancy to his death, and said that Christian kindness, charity, and for bearance characterized him through' out. In summing up, the distinguithed G eorgia oconee county—mereas James M. AVellonghby and Harbin G. Hardigree apply to me for letters of administra tion on the estate of David Willoughby (late of said county) deceased. These arc therefore to cite end admonish all concerned to show cause (if .any) on or before the firet Monday in April next, why said'letteni should not be granted.
