The citizens of Syiingtield will have reason 

 to remember long and ci-aiefally tiieir shy and 

 Bileut lowusman, who met his death so sud- 

 dranly and tragically, in the quiet of his own 

 chamber, last Monday morning. William Mer- 

 rick has builded a nobler memorial for himself 

 in his native city than any man who has gone 

 before bim. He was a wise and careful hns- 

 handmau of bis iiiberiiabco, and has left it, in- 

 rreasud an hundred fold, in a way that will in- 

 sure lasting beuelits to those who stand in need 

 of help. Ilis will is to be commended not only 

 lor its generous provisions but for its clear and 

 sensible form.
