GooDSPEED was married July 2d, and died October 29d, following. ■* O what is beauty's power ? It flourishes and dies ; Will the cold earth its silence break, To tell how soft, how smooth a cheek Beneath its surface lies ? Mute, mute is all o'er Beauty's fall, Her praise resounds no more when mantled in the pall."' Thus perish our jo^s — -thus death strikes down our friends.— Husbands and wives are separated in a moment ; children see their parents die ; parents see their children, the plants th...ey have nurtured and watered with tears, wither from their dwelling. Our possessions and joys are constantly exposed to thieves and murderers ; they have all our keys and we have no bar, bolt or weapon against them. We lie down in pride and dream of our wealth, our friends and sources of comfort. We avi'ake bereaved of all ; while we slept the gourd perished. Who does not some- times tremble and even weep to see every thing going from him or dying around him? Who has not a friend in the grave.'* But does death check the ambition and the hope of the living.'* Does he pile up the dead as an impassable barrier?
