On Monday morning, at two o’clock, little Walter, son of Mr. and Mrs. T. H. Paschal, died after a short illness. Os him it can be truihfully said, none knew him but to love him. He had entered his 13th year and possessed a most amiable disposition, together with those traits of character which indicated to human appear ances a life of usefulness. But the cold hand of death has blighted the cherished hopes and fond anti cipations of parents and loved ones, and little Walter, we trust, has gone to join the myriad harp ers on the other shore. To the grief-stricken parents m this try ing hour we tender our heartfelt sympathies.

Now a few words to the mem bers of the Harlem Church, you who have not paid your assess ments will please attend to it at once; call on your steward and settle up in full, and by so doing you will be happy and your steward will be happy, and you will re lieve your pastor of all embarrass ments, and he will go on bis way rej dicing and the cause of Christ will be advanced Now unless you attend to this matter soon,the oppoitunity will close, and your preacher will leave for the annual conference with a sad heart, em ; barrassed and distressed, on ac i count of not being able to meet his obligations, and you will have the remorse of conscience of knowing that you were partly to blame for it, and perhaps you may not see him again this side of the judg ment. Now you have the oppor tunity, avail yourself of it, act promptly receiving God’s bless ing for duing your duty, and be happy.
