DIED,—In New Buffalo, of Typhoid I fefver, on the 18th inst., Harriet, wife of j Osee Cook, aged 26 years. She leaves a , husband and four children, besides other friends and relatives, to mourn her loss. She seemed to be fully aware of the ap- j proach of death. She was willing and j prepared for the great change. For 12 j years she has been a member of the Me- j thodkt Church, striving to live in accordance with the will of her Lord and Savior. Oh, what a consolation to those she has left behind, to feel that while they j are weeping she is rejoicing in an eterni-ty of bliss. Only two months have passed away since she witnessed the death of a dear brother; while but one short month has rolled around since, with a' griefotricken heart, she was called upon to' follow her aged father to the grave. And now they three are lying side-bv-side; ' add we trust they are enjoying each oth-1 erj aooiety in a world where parting will j be no more.iAlar, hew frail, the juju of earth, iAnd oh r how sure to dio; ;Had we no other theme than mirth, j* How aoon would all pa** by.When we am called to hid adicn jTo thorn we loved below,III turn* our heart*, fair heaven to view,^, And there w« long to go, j» Farewell our friend, we hope to coma i- * And join thee in that land of reat; 1Jt is'th* weary Pilgrim** home jIt it the home where all are 1R.
