A Sad Death. Sadness and sorrow ivigns in the home of Mr. and .Mrs. W. .1. Morgan, whore only a few days past all was happiness and joy. That grim mon¬ ster, Death, has entered their home and plucked from their midst their bright and amiable daughter, Miss Hello, while in her 19th year. She had been suffering with typho-malaria fever for two weeks, and last Mon¬ day morning she quietly passed away into that unknown realm beyond. When only nine years of age, with child-like confidence, she gave her young heart to (hid, was a consistent member of the New Allen's .Method¬ ist church. By her daily walks in life and Godly conversation she proved to those around her that that confidence in Him who ruleth all things was never for a moment weak¬ ened. Perhaps the crowning char¬ acteristics of her young life were in the home circle. That proud and erect form which now lies cold in death never grew too weary to ad¬ minister to the wants of those around her. As a daughter she was obedi¬ ent, submissive, and true; as a sister the love which she bore must have been a symbol of love in heaven; as a friend she was noble, generous, and true. Weep not, fond parents, for your darling child, for her soul is forever free from sorrow and pain; weep not stricken hearts of brother, sister and friends, for she is not dead but sleep- cth. Farewell, dear young friend! We will not forget you, but will follow you beyond the grave. As the abid¬ ing hue of the evergreen so shall thy memory be. Amidst a large crowd of stricken- hearted relatives and friends she was laid to rest in the cemetery at New Allens church to await the coming of Him whom from childhood’s earliest days she had placed her trust.

L irriNCO TVS MA ga Z./A'E. with its varue. and excellent contents, is a library in itself. // was indeed a happy thought to print an entire novel in each number. Not a short novelette , but a long story such at you are used to get in booh form and pay from oue doll :r to one dollar and a half for. Not only that, but with each number you get an abundance of other contributions , which gives you a good magazine besides the novel. It does not follow in old beaten paths,—which is an easy lash,—but is perpetually discovering Hew and pleasant oner, and following them too. The ringing blows which have been struck on the gateway ofpopular favor , have resounded through¬ out the entire land, and to day Lippincott's Maga¬ zine stands in the front rank ifmonthly publications, and is the most widely-read-and-talked of publica¬ tion of its kind in the world.
