Died, in Muldlcburg, (Va.) on Sundav, the
4th inst after a few days’ illness of <m arlet fever,
Thomas Kobrins, infant son of the Rev. Tho
mas L Dorset, (Minister of the Methodist Epis
copal Church,) aged 22 months. Trutv, *• in
the midst of life we are in death ” Hut a few
days since, and this interesting, lovely little bov
was the subject of his affectionate paren’s’ fond
cst hopes.-—But, alas! m an evil hour, I’eath,
dread monarch, hurls the relentless dart, and
lays the loved little or.* cold and lifeless at his
feet—and now the insatiate jaws of the dark
' uinb have closed upon him forevei!
But on thinks I hear a voice.
Shrinking from th** colj har d of death,
1 n w have gat red up m> feet;
1 n v s* ign tLi. fl. t ting breath —
I die- my fa diet’s tud to meet:
Grieve not, m.v father, - g- oie no more:
No more your boy to p*m i» given:
Now, from ;h* Destroyer’* grasp secure,
tie rests a’ <eace, above in licuren.
Veep not, m; mother,—dry thv tear«.
Altlio’ tliv prsttier’s voice must cease,
Fonv’cr, to grt et thy listening ear*,
Yuui bay, with angels, rests in ;>cace.
Th.‘ manly finnness and Christian fortitude
evinced, on tins occasion, by the loud and affec
tionate father of the subject of these remarks,
merit the highest commendation. Feeling it in
cumbent upon him to prosecute the glorious call
ing id his Divine Master, in’whose service he
had -ecently so pre-eminently distinguish* d him
sen in toe various sections of the circuit over
whu h lie presides, he had left home, on the Sa
turday previo *-v, to attend a Quarterly Meeting
some ‘wenty-five mife3 distant, leaving his af*
tin .<d babe in the hands of that over-ruling Pro
vident who had so abundantly blessed his labors.
But Oh! the *• insatiate archer,” in his ruthless
ravages, had mil ked him for his vi> tim: and ere
the fathei s return, on the following day, the
sweet little innocent was fast locked in the cold
embrace of Death. To return, only to preside
orcr ‘he funeral obsequies of his dear little Hup,
n ijuiied no ordinary degree of energy; anil yet,
behold him, with Christian meekness and calm
resignation, bowing to the Almighty fiat of the
gieat I AM
AUo, died on the following morning, of tlysen
tery, Mahy Thomas, in'ant daughter ol Tiio
mas W. Dorman, of Middlebu rg. (Va.) aged
about fourteen months Again the monster ho
vers over the abode of quietness and peace, and,
at o: fell swoop, the house of gladness becomes
the house of gloom. Again the mother’s hope,
the fatli.r’s joy, is suddenly s itched Irom theirs,
and cla-ped iif the cold arms of the Destroyer.
She was beautiful ami lovely in life; but no
less beautiful, even in death.
