Mr.. Chasrman :-lt becomes my painful and
melancholy duty, to announce the unex pected and
mysterious, and dreadful death of an honorable
member of our Bar, and much respected citizen,
ANDREW CAMPBELL, Esq. Mr. Campbell is no
more. He has been suddenly cut off in the
bloom of youth, and Just as he was commencing
a career of usefulness.


Death, sir, in his mildest forms, and whom his
victim expires on bed of affliclion, surrounded
by his friends who smooth the pillow, and render
every office OF kindness, is always monster suf.
fcientiy terrible. Youth, middle ago, and even
the aged, all shrink from his grasp. But when
the dart is sent from the quiver of Death by an
assassin, concealed in ambush, in an unfrequent-
ed spot, chosen by the murderer for tho occasion,
but least suspected by the slain, the grim monster
is more awfuIly terrible. Such was tho fate of
our unfortunate friend, whose memory we have
met te. commemorate.

best, know that there were none who owed him
harm or malice. If he had faults they were
such as will be forgotten, while his good qualities
will survive in memory only to grow brighter and

Il is just three years since Mr.. Campbell como

no means of making friends, excep, such as his
purity of purpose his industrious habits, and en-
ergies of character, were calculated to win.-
These qualities, with integrity, and degree of
punctuality rarely equalled, and never excelled,
could not fail to secure him friends and business
among generous spirits.


This is not the most proper place to pronounce
an eulogy on his character. But my relation
with the deceased, requires that should do some,
thing more than merely announce his death. lie
