      (Too late for last week.) Death of Mrs. John Bierman. - It becomes our sad duty to report this week the death of Mrs. Jno. Bierman which took place on Monday of last week. The news comes as a sudden and unexpected shock to the many friends of the family, as it had not been generally known that the deceased had been ailing, much less that she was so near death's door. The cause of her death is given as premature childbirth, accompanied by convulsions. That her death was most unexpected will be understood when it is known that the deceased milked a cow on the morning of the day of her death, and attended to her, other various household duties as usual. Dr. Armitage was sent for at noon, and he expressed his opinion on leaving the house that Mrs. Bierman would recover. But internal cramps seized her in the afternoon, and she was soon beyond all human aid, breathing her last about 8 o'clock in the evening. Her end was peaceful. Thus are we snatched suddenly from life unto death. The late Mrs. Bierman (whose maidea name was Trussler), was 33 years, 11 months, of age, and had been married to Mr. Bierman for 17 years. She was the, mother of six children, only three of whom survive her. One of these is the prematurely born infant, which is said to be thriving well. The others. are little girls of 9 and 4 years of age. The bereaved family have the heartfelt sympathy of a large circle of sorrowing friends, who respected and admired the departed for her many gentle and Christian qualities..

      Servant of God, well done
      Thy glorious warfare's past;
      The battle's fought, the race is won,
      And thou art crowned at last.

      In condescending love,
      Thy ceaseless prayer He heard,
      And bade thee suddenly remove
      They they complete reward.

      In ecstasies of praise,
      O, happy, happy, soul,
      Long as eternal ages roll,
      Thu see'st they Saviour's face.
