Mr . Gilbert Mace . June 30 , aged 22 , Gilbert , the sou of John Mace , Esq ., of Tenterdeo , Kent , of a decline , after passing with exemplary patience and fortitude the general course of that almost invariably fatal disease . It is so habitually the practice , m cases of this nature , to dwell upon the amiable

But possibly obituary notices would be more useful by a serious call upon the young in general to fill up worthily aud well this early period of their existence , as their best preparation for future usefulness , should life be continued , or their most acceptable sacrifice to heaveu ,

should their days be shortened by that Being to whom belong the issues of life and death . With the most encouraging prospects of future respectability and eminence in the station they may have been designed to hold in society , the loss of young persons , even in these circumstances ,
appears to be little felt by the world . Jnstauces of early mortality are repeated , and we fear , as repeatedly , in many instances , forgotten .
