Mr. Editor:—It is with deep regret : that we chronicle the sad and sudden | death of Dr. D. 41. Brown’s little four-! year-old son, Dean, which occurred last Saturday at Sharpsbnrg. It appears that the little fellow, in company with some of his playmates, was playing in a heap of cotton seed in the yard. They would dig holes in the heap and stick their heads down, hut withdrawing theirs immediately. Little Dean, it seems, inserted his head to such a depth that he was unable to withdraw it, and suffocated before assistance could reach him. Tin* mother was the first to reach tin: scene, but too late, unfortunately, to be of assistance. It is said that the shepherds of olden time, in order to car ry the parent sheep to the mountain heights, were wont to take the young lambs in their arms and climb the mountain sides until the top was reach ed, from which the constant bleating of its young would entice the parent ani mal to follow. So the bereaved parents should remember that their Heavenly Shepherd may bear away and up to the heights of glory the tender offspring, in orde.ri.hat they may have afresh and burning desire to reach the mansions which the Good Shepherd has prepared for them. Be comforted by this thought, stricken hearts, and cease thy sorrowing. Though two little forms, of the same family, now sleep side by side in the Sharpsbnrg cemetery, we have no right to question the wis dom of that inscrutable providence which saw fit to take them away. Rev. Mr. Sanders, of the Turin cir cuit, preached his farewell sermon at this place last Sunday, and will leave in a few days to attend the annual confer ence of his church. Bro. S. is a good man and has been a most acceptable pastor. Delias done good work since he came into our midst, and it would he very gratifying to the people of this vi cinity to have him returned another year, if conference will so order.
