The deceased lady was in her usual health and had been reading from the Bible and conversing with her husband about the resurrection when she suddenly raised ho hand. to her temple, oomplaining of a pain there, and almost immediately after expired. So suddenly and quietly had the end Dome that her family could eoaroely rea- lize that she was dead, and to those who knew her devout Obrietian oharaoter her death appeared to be a veritable falling asleep in her risen Saviour. The deceas- ed was born in Bristol, England, and was a daughter of the late Benjamin Scott, who subsequently removed to Philadelphia. She was 'about 70 years of age and had been married 47 years. During the past 12 years she had resided with her husband, Dr. Gunner, in Listo• wel, who for several years was pastor of the Congregational Morrell in this town.

Below you willread of the success of one of his pupils when put to the test. About 19 years ago one bright Summer afternoon, on the old Cricket ground in the town of Clinton, there were met together. a number of sports and after a friendly game of cricket a dis- pute arose between J. M. and T. J. over wrestling, whereupon a youth whose trips were learned at school on the 5th Con., Morris, stepped forward and threw five men (one after` the other) every one heavier than himself, and then Jamin you rushed about cheering lustily for Sandy, then of the Manchester House. But before the contest was over how anxiously you watched the Black- smith, whose name is forgotten, but he then used to work in T. Tipling's shop, how he tried to avoid the Joseph John England Trip, but finally made up his mind to take the risk --conse- quence was he came down like a thousand of brick.
