The high Calvinism of the one , or the dogged Unitarianism of the other , will be accounted , however , by the mind which surrenders itself to the purer influences issuing from these * master-spirits of this age , ' rather as their excrescences than their energies , as * the nodosities of the oak rather than

OBITUARY .
Untitled Article
Miss Mary Roe . 1830 . Oct . 23 , at Norwich , after a long and painful illness , Mary , elder daughter of Mrs . John Roe . The death of one so young and so promising is one of those dispensations which speak to every heart , more particularly to the young , and tell us by what uncertain ties our strongest affections here are bound . She had looked forward to life with
" golden hopes" and bright anticipations , but at the age of twenty-one they were shrouded in the grave ! So has it pleased a mvsterious but all-wise Providence , and the reason for recording her humble name in these pages , is the hope that should the eye of the young glance for a moment on this frail memento , penned by the hand of affection , it may prove an
incitement to them to be " ready also . Worn by sickness and pain , she at length longed to " be released from her earthly sufferings , and it pleased her heavenly Father that her release should be met by her with as bright an intellect and as ardent a hope as ever she had enjoyed in her days of health ; the terror , the ' ¦* % ting of death" appeared to be taken
away ; and leaving those she loved , to use her own expression , " she wished only to die ! " Thus were the anxieties of tho § e who most tenderly suffer this bereavement alleviated , and her parent , under this consoling feeling , has " not to earth resigned her , but to God , ' * in humble hope of a happy re-union , when the shades of this life are lost in the brightness of immortality !

dress was delivered to the friends of the deceased by the Rev . T . M . Williams , of Macclesfield ( late of the Presbyterian College , Carmarthen ) . To a bereaved and sorrowing parent it affords no small joy to reflect that during the short space of human life allotted to his son , were evinced those traits of piety and virtue which held out a fair promise of
usefulness and respectability of character . And that these pleasing expectations should have been thus blighted by death , he conceives to be among those events which puzzle human reason satisfactorily to account for , but which will hereafter be found , like every other part of the divine proceeding , of all possible courses the wisest and the best .
