Samuel Rutherford, aged ] l years, 5 months and 4 days. Our Saviour said: “Suffer little children, and forbid them not., to come unto me, for oi such is the kingdom of heav en;”— and, in thus taking this child from its parents, the writer can but feel that it is to transplant it from this worid of wickedness, of vicissitudes and trouble, to a brighter and happier home, and to add another to the angelic hosts around our Saviour’s throne. It is true this child was remarkable for its amiability and sweetness of character, its thoughtfulness and affectionate disposition, solacing and consoling its parents, since first it learned to understand and love them—it is true, that young as she was, she not only loved her Bible, but read it to oth er children of her age, white and black, and attempted to instruct them in teaching, thus giving much promise of use fulness—and the hearts of all who knew her warmed to wards her as she came about them, and it seems hard to give her up, yet “the Lord gave and the Lord hath ta ken away, blessed be the name of the Lord.” Yea, “far be it from God, that he should do wickedness; and irom tho Almighty, that he should commit iniquity.” DIED, m Chattahoochee county, Ga on the 13th instant, Mrs. Ann, wile ot Isaac King, in the 20th year of her age BY AUTHORITY.

A portion ol ihe Road has been finished, equipped and put in operation, but there exists a large amount of indebt edness which must be provided for, or else suits will be in stituted against the Road at the March Term of the Rus sell Circuit Court, and judgments rendered at that Term, under which all that portion of tne road now finished, with its equipment will be sold, and pass into other hands and become a total loss to the present Stockholders. Yon are aware that the late President, Judge Iverson, resigned on the first of January, and that Maj. John H. Howard was elected to fill the vacancy. He has not yet accepted the office, and will not until arrangements are made to pay the debts and progress with the Road to Un ion Springs. He and others are making every effort to obtain additional subscriptions, and it is hoped and believed that a considerable sum will be obtained, but it is well as certained that a sufficient amount cannot be thus raisc-d to accomplish the objects desired. Something, therefore, must be done by the present Stockholders te prevent the loss of what has already been invested and expended in the road. .YVe therefore earnestly invite you to meet at the depot in Girard, on Thursday the first day of March next, at 10 o’- clock, A. M., at which time a full exposition will be made ol the past transactions and present condition of the com pany, and when, it is hoped, some plan will be adopted to relieve the road from its present embarrassments ami pro vide for its further progress.
