glory of this happy child. Faithful and numerous are their promises, that they will visit them again on the day when his ears are to be graced with the ponderous rings, and when the barber is, for the first time, to perform his important function. And so sure as they are in the land of the living, will they go to the same place, and talk over all the events to that period of the young man's life. They have, however, another promise to make; they will be with him on his bridal day; they will then come to celebrate his praise. Absent on such a day! they will never be so ungrateful as that! When that period has arrived, again these squalid and clamorous guests make their appearance. "Bridegroom, five for ever! May your strength never wither! May your bride be like Lechimy!* May she bear you numerous sons!" A person would pose they had now done with their benefactor: but not so: they have another wretched hope; they may live till the time when his bones shall be carried to the place of burning; and on the eighth day after that event takes place, they may be found again in groups around the same door. And as long as there is a wife, a son, a daughter, or a friend, to perform the annual rites to the manes of the deceased, will they yearly resort to the same place.

American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions.

DECEASE OF THE CORRESPONDING SECRETARY.

ACCORDING to the appointment of a wise and sovereign Providence, the Board is again called to mourn the death of its Corresponding Secretary. The Rev. ELIAS CORNELIUS, D. D. died at Hartford, Connecticut, on the twelfth of February, in the thirtyninth year of his age.

After the most diligent and prayerful consideration of the subject, attended with much anxiety lest he should mistake the path of duty, Dr. Cornelius decided, early in December, to accept the office to which he was appointed at the last annual meeting of the Board, and early in the following month he arrived in Boston, to enter upon the duties of it. His health was not then good. While in Boston his mind was much occupied in making arrangements with his associates for conducting the labors at the Missionary Rooms, and by various plans and measures adapted to give increased efficiency and extent to the operations of the Board, with other cares incident to the commencement of a new course of duties. Besides these, he was almost daily engaged in preaching or making addresses on missions in Boston and the vicinity, and preparing for an agency of four or five months, which he contemplated in the Middle States. During this time he often spoke of being ill. He left Boston on Saturday, the fourth of February. On Monday he arrived at Hartford, quite exhausted and in much pain. He, however, attended the Monthly Concert for Prayer, according to a previous appointment, and addressed the audience, which was the last of his public labors. He was immediately confined to his bed; and notwithstanding all that medical skill and the kindest attentions of friends could effect, his disease, an inflammation on the brain, hastened rapidly to its fatal termination, and his soul took its departure on the following Sabbath morning. During his sickness he was exercised with much pain, and at intervals, during the last twenty-four hours of his life, his mind was affected. The pain he bore with exemplary patience, and resting firmly in Christ and his atonement, he spoke of his death, and met it when it arrived, with perfect composure. The funeral of Dr. Cornelius was attended at Hartford, Feb. 15th. An appropriate sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. Hawes, from John xvii. 24.

At a meeting of the Prudential Committee, held on Monday, the 20th of February, the following minute was ordered to be entered on their records; which, although it has not been customary in similar cases heretofore, it is thought expedient to publish.

It having pleased the wise and sovereign Disposer of events to remove from his earthly labors the Rev. Dr. Cornelius, a member of this Committee, and Corresponding Secretary of the Board, who died at Hartford, Connecticut, on the 12th instant,

Resolved, That the Committee desire to be solemnly affected by the repeated strokes of God's afflictive providence, with which they have been visited during the past year, and particularly to notice with humility and submission the recent death of the Rev. Elias Cornelius, D. D., lately a member of this Committee, and Corresponding Secretary of the Board; who, immediately after entering on the duties of his office, has been suddenly removed, in the vigor of life and in the height of his usefulness: and while the Committee mourn their own personal loss, and the loss which the Board and the cause of Christian benevolence generally have sustained by this event, they would acknowledge with unfeigned gratitude to God, the piety, the unwearied zeal and public spirit, the enlarged views, the sound judgment, the industry, the amiable and affectionate disposition, and the other qualifications for his office, possessed by their late beloved associate and brother, by which he secured universally the confidence and affection of the Christian community, was highly successful in labors in behalf of the Board and other benevolent institutions, and promised eminent and continued usefulness to the missionary cause.

Resolved, That the Committee affectionately tender their condolence to the bereaved widow and family of the late beloved Corresponding Secretary, and pray that this heavy affliction may promote their spiritual good, and that the consolations of the gospel, which abounded to him in his life, and sustained him in death, may be their comfort and support under this and every other earthly trial.
