On the 19th Day of July, 1798, Died, much regretted, the Reverend & Venerable Samuel Buell, D. D., who was born at Coventry, in Connecticut, Sept. I, 1716, and died in the 82nd Year of his age and in the 57th of his ministry. He was installed Septr. 19, 1746, as the Pastor of the people in this place. He caintinued regularly as their minister till his death. On the Sabbath but one before his Death he preached from John 17th, 3d, "Instead of fearing he longed for the hour of Dissolution." Thursday, July 19th, at about I o'clock P. M., he obtained his release from the cares & sorrows of mortality and entered, as we have the fullest rea-

son to believe, into the Joy of his Lord. His funeral was attended the next day by the neigh- boring ministers, his own congregation, and a large concourse of people from the adjacent towns, with the most "Solemn Decency & Respect."
"Leaves have their time to fall,
And flowers to wither at the north winds breath,
And stars to set-but all,
Thou hast all reasons for thine own, oh Death.
Youth and the opening rose
May look like things to glorious to decay,
And smile at thee-but thou are not of those
That wait the ripened bloom to seize their prey.
We know when moons shall wane,
When Autumns hue shall tings the golden grain,
But who shall teach us when to look for thee-
Is it when Springs first gale
Comes forth to whisper where the violets lie? Is it when roses in our paths grow pale?
They have one season-all are ours to die."
" It is a serious and unfortunate error of people in general to sup- pose that events familiarized to themselves by fireside repetition will be uninteresting to others and that efforts to preserve them will be con- sidered as either triffling or arrogant."

others, who, like us, shall be driven awhile by hope and fear, about the surface of the earth, and then like us, be lost in the shades of death.
It is not from this world that any ray of comfort can proceed to chear the gloom of the last hour. But futurity has still its prospects ; there is yet happiness in reserve, which if we transfer our attention to it, will support us in the pains of disease and the languor of decay. This happiness we may expect with confidence because it is out of the power of chance and may be attained by all that sincerely desire and earnestly pursue it. On this, therefore, every mind ought finally to rest.
Hope is the chief blessing, of man, and that hope only is rational, of which we are certain that it cannot deceive us.
" Death to a Saint is everlasting gain."
Jerusha Buell, daughter of the Reverend Dr. Samuel Buell, De- ceased, departed this life September 29, 1829, in the 41 year of her age. In recording her death, it is proper to remark that in the latter part of her sickness, she was peculiarly favored with the comforting, joyified presence of the Great Shepherd of his people. While wasting under the ravages of a disease which she was sensible would terminate her earthly career, she experiencd that blessed tranquility of mind which flows from the enjoyment of the divine favor of love. Numerous were the expressions of triumph & joy which fell from her lips in her last days. The consideration that " the Lord reigneth " was a source of un- speakable consolation to her soul. She rejoiced to obey the will of her heavenly Father. The closing scene of her life was one in which christian fortitude rose superior to the sufferings of body & the agonies of disolving nature. Christian faith triumphed over the power of death & the grave & Christian hope cheered the immortal Spirit, when it took its flight, as we have reason to believe, to the mansions of ever- lasting rest & glory.
