; A TRUE MAN GONE;
Die, at bis residence, near this place, on
Saturday night, at 1 o'clock, tho 10th mat.;
Daniel Hoke, Sr., in the 83d year bf his age.
Tlic deceased was baptis'ed'.an'd confirmed in
the German Reformed branch of the Christian
Ctnrch, and without ostentation, tried to load
the christian's life, in the faithful discharge of
ail his duties to God and his neighbor. He
if TElct! "in Lt6aring III 0" Holy Scriptlires rea
alodd to him. after his sight - failed him even
until he was too weak to raise his head. A
short time before his deathwith several mera
bers'of his family, be bad the satisfaction o
partaking of the Holy Cramunion of the
Body, and Blood of our Savior. Conscious tha
his earthly career was drawing to a clos, he
would calmly and freely converse upon the
change that was shortly to take place eyer
trusting in tho merits arid atbnerOenl 'of Him,
who died that" we might live acd who is now
at the right hand-of God, our intercessor and
advocate. . ,
For several weeks, without any acute pain,
his physical powers gave way, so suddenly
that the falling off could scarcely be discerned.
Ilis mind and memory, with an unusual stea
diness of his nerves, remained to the last. He
recognized bis children and grand children,
even after those around him, believed his eyes
closedfor the last time: So calm, so-gentle,
were his dying moments that none could tell
'when be breathed his last. - Death seemed to
approach him unarmed with any of his usual
terror?; he died without a single struggle, and
the placid smile as it lingered upon bisclos
M.ps,;ga.ve evidQaco to all that it is sweet to
sleep in a, Ban'or's arms.
, Daniel Hoke, was born at York, in Penn

he was a boy, .bis mother, three elder brotheia
a sister ; and himself, disposed ef their farm
and removed to: Lincoln county, N, C.wlien

The loss of two dutiful and exemplary sons,

The Highest Mountain in the "Worud.
The principal topb of conversation at
Oalcutta is the discovery of tha bighest'moun
lain, in-the world. At a meeting pf the.At-
Iatic. Society of Bngal, on the 9tb August,
Major huilliet announced that Col. Waugh
purveyor Ueneral of India, had completed, his
computations in the positions and elevations
of the beaks of the Himalayas.. The. result
f was to depose the mountaiur Kanchinjinga
from its throne as the highest' point on the
earth 's jsur face. That distinction belongs for
the preent to a peak 100 miles from Kan
cninjina, and between that mountain and
Kanmandoo. This peak is ascertainad to be
I 29,002: feet above the sear level, Kanchinjin!
