 We insert the following obituary notice, from the Cleaveland (Ohlo) Herald, inasmuch the deceased had, by residence of three years the Female Acad- emy in this village, endeared hersef by her amiabe and correct department, to large and respectable acquaintance in this part of the country.

 DIED Tn this village, ,on Tuesday the 25th ult Miss MARY, daughter of Mir. Noble H. Merwin, in the 17th year of her age. This affective event of Providence cannot fail to impress on the mind deep conviction of the uncertainty of earthly enj"yments and earthly hopes. Possessed by nature of good mind, which had been highly cultivated by enjoying the best priv- leges which country affords, she seemed qualified to move in elevated sphere on the stage of human life. The world held out gIittering prospect before her. A prouson of earthly comforts were always at her command. Having spent nearly three years at of the best Female Academe in country, and completed her education the entire satisfaction of her instructors and friends she returned to her fla thers m June ast more to enjoy the society of her early associates. How bright her prospects, and how distressing the reflection, that much pains should be taken in cutvating flower so early to be cut down by the frosts of death Truly, man com eth forth like flower and is cut down he feeth ale so like shadow, and continueth not.'' Soon after her return her health began to decline; medical aid unavaing. The efforts of an indugen father and the unwearied attentions and kindness of one who ad mirably sustained the place of mother, could store health to her sinking frame. After languishing with alternate hope and fear, momenary relief and keen suffering, for several months, which she bore with uncommon torttude and patience, she closed her eyes in peace with strong hope of immortal Iife- During her sickness her mind became deeply interes- ted in the subject of religion She felt her need of pardoning mercy, and found forgiveness and peace in he Saviour of sinners. Her last days were days of extreme suffering. and of triumphant hope in God.- When told that it possible she might yet recover, she replied. "I have not the least wish to live."- When struggling with death, her ministe, asked her if she still hoped in God She replied 6" feel that he is with me every moment" At another time when thought to be dying enreated her minister to pray that she might die soon and be released from her suf- fcrings. Her reason continued to the last, and the faculties of her mind seemed invgorated by the near approach of death. At last, after great suerngs she was released from her misery, and is gone. as we trust, "where the wicked cease from troubling, and the weary at rest"
