PALME It, Com. SILAS BURNS. Died at his residence in Sampson co, X. C. on Sunday evening, April 2Gth, 1857, Mr.

Samuel Johnson, aged 70 years, 7- months, 14 days. Mr. Johnson had been a member of the M. E. Church for 40 years having joined in the vear 1817, under the ministry of Rev.

John F. Wright. He was exemplary iu his I deportment, and strictly upright in all his dealings; he was truly pious, possessing the life and power of religion. The power of saving grace was his theme, by day and by night, at home and abroad; to saint and to sinner, would he speak of the wondrous love of Jesus. He was a man of faith walking in the straight and narrow way that leads to i life, while the undying affections of his heart were given to God; his his work.

EjeritUville, N. C. Dec. 12, 185G. 50 cial Communication of the Reasons of England for Rejecting the Central American Treaty, tfr.

The departure of Mr. Robert J. Walker for K-usas fixed for Monday, the 11th, and his advent in the territory will, with out doubt, be hailed as an assurance of continual tranquility and prosperity. The territory is now open to the peaceful influence of pursuits which will necessarily supercede the late agitation. The acting governor, Mr.

Stanton, has made a good impression in Kansas on all parties. Some of the elements of discord have disappeared before his firm and conciliatory policy. It is now very probable that the free state party will take part in the June election for the convention without fuither I guarantees than the existing laws afford. I It was stated iu some of the New York I papers that the correspondence between Mr. Dallas and Lord Clarendon, respect- ing the extinct treaty, was brought by the Europa, but this proves to be a mistake.

But nothing is wanting, nor expectea, as a further explanati of the reasons which influenced the British government to reject the amendments which this government had proposed. The British minister, Lord Napier, has communicated them to the government, and in a much more conciliatory manner than that in which they were first presented through the official organ of Lord Palmerston the Morning Post. They are, as has often been stated, the refusal of the United States Senate to couseut to the conditions upon which the Bay Islauds were proposed to be transferred to Honduras. It is remarkable that the treaty made last August between Great Britain and Honduras, was not before the Senate in an official form, when the Dallas and Claren don treaty was under consideration. The Senate, however, obtained a copy as it had appeared in ttie newspapers, and found that the proposed transfer was clogged with so many conditions that it amounted to noth ing.

A large majority of the Senate was hostile to the acceptance of the treaty on these conditions, even if they were to be i considered independently of the clause excluding slavery from the Islands It is fortuuate. however, that ths Senate did not go blindly into the convention between Great Britain and Honduras, for, if they ha I giv. their assent to the treaty as it was. it would have proved to be a source of vexation and irritation to both parties. Ion.

The Church of England. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council of England has given its decision, on the first appeal, in the cae of the churches of Sc. Barnabas, Pimlico and St. Paul's, Knihtslnidge. This determin-s finally the question in controversy, which related to church ornaments ami the arrangement ef chancels for ilivine worship.

The decision turned upon the constructions to be to sundry rubrics and ac's of Parliament. The points declared are as follows: Crosses in iv be u-ed in the interior as well as on the exterior of churches. The hu ge wooden cross in the liancel of St. Barnabas is ace -nlingly permitted to remain. II.

Stone altars, fixed in the body of the church and immovable, are prohibited. Altars, or communion tables, must be of wood, and movable. The stone altar of St. Barnabas, which rests on the foundation of the church is to be removed. III.

The communion table must be capable of ing covered. Change of altar cloths, as bl ick tor Lent, white for Easter, are permitted. IV. Super-altars, or woolen ledgers over and behind the altars, are permitted. V.

The brazen chancel screen or gate, separating the chancel from the body of the church, is permitted. VI. Credence tables, or preparatory altars or tables, on which the elements are placed before consecration of the Holy Communion, are permitted. VII. The oldeu candlesticks standing on the super altar, at St Paul's, are permitted.

This decision overrules the de2ision of Doctor Lushington on all points but that of the stone altar. On that point it coincides wtth the views of the Evangelical party. On the other points, it sustains the practices of the Tractarians as rubrical. MARRIED In Greensboro', on Tuesday morning, the 5th by Rev. N.

He was indeed a good shunning evil and rebuking evil in his companions. He was without an enemy, and his early death mourned by all who knew him.

AL1 fJPHE HAIR. How few people consider the iin- portance of preserving their Hair, and how many would give thousands of dollars could they regain it, after it has been lost irreparably. The hair should always be kept clearof dandraff by the use of sound cleansing preparation, and none has been found equal to the Oil cf Bay Leaves prepar ed from the leaves of the Bay tree, so famous among the ancients. This Oil possesses exeiting and tonic properties, which is j.u3t what is needed when the hair is falling off from disease, it excites the scalp to action and cmses the hair to spring forth with renewed vigor. Eor ladies' toilet, it is rich and highly perfumed, it prevents the hair from falling off; by brushing or combing imparts to it a fragrance superior to the groves of Java, ami renders it more soft than.

In his death the Church has lost one of its brightest irnaments, the community a worthy citizen, his children a kind and affectionate father, aud his servants an indulgent master. May those who knew him be stimulated by his esamplo to prepare for the hour of death. M. P. O.

Captain David W. Cannady, the subject of this brief obituary, departed this life on the 2nd of February, 1857. Death produces sadness and pain, under almost all circumstances but more especially, when he suddenly and ruthlessly snatches away the young and enterprising, the promising and generous he causes a deeper sadness to pervade the community, and a more excruciating pa to vibrate through the souls of the friends and relatives. Capt. Cannady ed of yellow fever in Martinique, West Indies, in the 2oth year of his age, respected and lamented by all who kuiiw hiin.

Far lrom his native land and dear relatives, his mortal remains now sleep under the sod ot a distant island, where the solemn music of the sea will sing his perpetual requiem, until the gentle voice of the Son of God shall bid him arise. But his chief excellence consisted in his piety. lie 'counted all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus our He professed religion in '51, and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church some time after, of which he was a worthy aad valuable member to the day of his death. He filled the office of steward in Franklin circuit very acceptably. lie felt much interest in the affairs ot the circuit, and was ever ready to advance its interests.

He was a young man of much promise to the church and the community of which he was a member. Around him clustered the fondest hopes of relatives and friends, in anticipation of the bright and happy career of usefulness that opened before him but alas alas our hopes are crushed, and we have to mourn his early death. How inscrutable this afflictive Providence But, we know, Lord, that thy judgments are right, and that Thou in faithfulness hast afflicted us. Let, we pray Thee, thy merciful kindness be for our During ths last illness of Br. Benjamin, he frequently spoke of death, and assured his friends that he was ready and anxious 'to depart and be with Christ, which is far He said to a friend, 'I thought that I should have been privileged to enter Heaven on tha Sabbath.

In this respect, he might have had some momentary disappointment but ere the next Sabbath came, he had entered upon a. Sabbath that has no end. He requested that the writer should preach his funeral. In his death a devoted mother loses one of the principal props on which was leaning as she goes down the bill of life bis brothers and sisters aa affeeii mafe and devoted brother, many other a tried friend, and one of her bright est ornaments. But since our loss, though great, has resulted in suuhJrtfinite and eternal gain to hiin, we the more cheerfully acquiesce in the will of our Heavenl Father.
