There, indeed, his memory will live, associated with the purest and most grateful recol- lections, till these hearts shall cease to beat ; and then, departing ourselves from the employments of time, we hope that these affections will be again renewed in the associations of a blessed eternity. This, my friends, is one of those affecting instances in which God destroys the hope of man, by taking away those who were useful and revered, whose talents, services, example and virtues rendered them a p...ublic blessing, and wiio made the world better by living in it. It is also one of those solemn events which justly excites our anxiety — for " the righteous are taken away from the evil to come ;" removed by a dispensation, gracious to them, but alarming to us, from the more awful judgments of heaven ready to be inflicted on a degenerate age : in which we are not to weep for them, but for ourselves and our children. In these uncertain and unquiet times, when the world is up in arms, and the affairs of human beings wear a troubled and threatening aspect ; when the 13 whole moral and political hemisphere looks lowering and dark ; when we hear of nothing but wars and rumours of wars, and all seems perplexing and dis- couraging, it is a consoling consideration thai there is peace in the grave.
