[Couiiaunicatod.j Oslin Lodge, No. 348,1 O. G.T ) Clarke county, April 20th ? 1878. ) When friends grow sick and lan<_er- ish; when hopes are crushed, and beat ing hearts are stilled; when death enters a household aud takes a much loved one away, how sweet iu such bouts of saduess to feel that “earth hath no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.” To look beyond the dark present to the future where all is bright, blessed, thrice blessed is the Christian’s hope which brings earth’s darkest clouds with silver linings, glittering with the bright radiance from eternity’s snore". In hours of human desolation it is so sweet to pause and think that a kind father “ doeth all things well,” and though we sigh for loyed ones, whom we shall see here no more, yet by the grace of God, and trust in Jesus we shall nut-, them again in the sweet by and by.” Whereas, our pinch loved brother Cranford Alexander was called from earth’s labors on Alarch 3.0th, 1878, and taken to his h’cuveuJylmme.

Court was iu full blast, His honor Judge Rice on the bench, with the usual; amouut of lawyers ou.tbe inside, and an unusual amount of newspaper agents and politicians on the outside. Clarksville has some improvements going on. We notice a new hotel, the Alegany House,, undergoing repairs, and uo doubt will be kept in splendid style for summer boarders. Miss Clifford A.
