On the 4th inst., Mr. Alexander McPherson, aged about 65. His disease was consumption. Fully aware of its nature, and the certainty of its consequences, he had been for two years looking for his speedy dissolution. He had become familiar with thoughts of death, and seemed willing and even anxious for the hour of his departure. His last hours were full of comfort, Christ being precious to his soul.
