OBITUARY.
Amid tbe gloom ami solemnity of the mid
night hoar, when all Natme was hushed in re
pose and no sound was heard save the fitfol
aighing of the Wintry blast and the snbdned
murmurs of those surrounding the couch of
death—tne spirit of apioos and venerable lady
winged ita flight from this "vale of tears" to
“fairer world* on high,” borne thither by sis
ter spirits singing as they went anthems of
praise to Him who liveth and reigneih forever.
And there in that “beantifnl wonu"the Sartour
whom she loved so well has placed upon her
angelio brow the glittering diadem of immortal
ity, studded ail over with every Christian grace
and Godly virtue, far out-shinning in dealing
1 astro the paltry trinkets and petty banblea of
earth.
On Wednesday, the 27th day of December,
1878, at a few minutes before. 12 o'clock at
night, all that was mortal of Mss. Sabah Leon
Dasfobth ceased to exist. The expiring saint
died aa calmly and peacefully as she had lived,
a faint sigh and feeble gasp alone attesting
that ahe was no more, and although her last
illness was protracted and exceedingly painful,
no murmur escaped from her lips; but her
great anxiety seemed to be not to get well, bnt
rather to depart and be with her blessed Re
deemer. exhorting those about her to be pre
pared to meet her in those bright realms
above.
The “sweet hour of prayer" was, to our dear
friend, one of ineffable delight. Oh, with
what gushing rapture would she pour out her
soul at the Lot of the cross in devotion to the
God that created and the Saviour that redeem
ed her. Mbs. Dan forth embraced religion
at an early age, uniting herself with the Meth
odist Episcopal Church, and frem that moment
to the hear of her death, extending through a
period of nearly three score tears and tea, she
never for an instant faltered in her faith, but
illustrated from day to day, as she trod the
pathway of life, not always strewn with flow
ers, the .bean ty and holiness of the religion she
professed. Next to her love of Christ, God-like
charity was her most cherished virtue—it wss
interwoven with her very nature—every fibre
of her soul was imbued with it—it pervaded
her entire being, net manifesting itself in re
gal displays of munificent benefactions, for
that was not in her power, bnt from the poor
and needy, no matter how lowly, the “widow’s
mite” was never withheld. As she lay repo ing
in her unostentatious coffin her face seemed to
beam with heavenly effulgence—so peaceful,so
happy, that death was not only divested of its
terrors, bnt really appeared lovely, almost
creating a desire to exchange places with the
silent sleeper, and eheit the exclamation of
“Oh death, where is thy sting.” That serene
countenance was the reflex of the Christian
faith and religions hope that adorned her char
acter in life and beautified her features in
death, and the snow-wh'te robes that envelop
ed the beloved form were fit emblems of the
pnrity of an entire life onmarred by spot
and unstained by blemish. Thus lived and
thus has died one of the besi and purest and
holiest of God’s creatures, A FRIEND.

HAPPY INFLUENCE OF A GREAT
SPECIFIC.
For the preservation or recovery of
health and strength, the diet should be
wholesome and nutritions. When it
happens that the alimentary processes
are disturbed by improper or half mas
ticated food, the best remedy for the
evil resalts of abusing the digestive or
gans is Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters, a
most agreeable, prompt and gentle
remedy for dyspepsia, and for the bil
ious and evacuative irregularities which
result from it. The liver and bowels,
in common with the stomach, experi
ence its benificent influences. The re
fuse of the system is carried off through
its natural outlet, a healthy flow and se
cretion of the- bile is promoted, and a
powerful impetus is given to assimila
tion in oonseqnenoe of its nse. It
healthfully stimulates the bladder and
kidneys when they are inactive, and by
its tonic and regulating action fortifies
the system against malaria.

dnly celebrated at the

This year in a peculiar manner, as the thou
sands of customers who weekly throng this es
tablishment for supplies, in Groceries, staple
and fancy, can testify. The proprietor calls
especial attention to the fact that choice and
reliable stocks can always be obtained here at
reasonable rates, and peculiarly is this the case
with Christmas at our doors. The ‘'Little
Folks’’(can alwayß get lust what they want, in
Fireworks, Candy, Toys and French Candies.
Older ones nsually find no difficulty in being
suited with our Fragrant Teas and Aromatic
Coffee, and if in days requiring any addi
tional stimulant we can fnrnish a pure and
wholesome article of Choice Wines and Liquors
—fit to be set before a King. We hope any who
are in want of these will call soon, as we ex
pect to close out our liquor stock with the
holidays. So, friends, drop in and stay long
enough to leave me an order, so you oan invite
all your friends to gather around the family
board. with all good cheer, as in days of “Auld
