DEATHS.

Died, Friday evening, after a long and painful illness, Mr. JOHN COLLINS, a native of county Limerick, Ireland.

Peaceful be thy silent slumber,

Peaceful in the grave so low;

Thou no more shalt join our number,

Thou no more our sorrows know.

Yet again we hope to meet thee,

When the day of life is fled;

Then, in Heaven, with joy to greet thee,

Where no farewell tear is shed.

Never more will we caress thee

With our heart's deep yearning love;

Blessed now enfold thee,

In thy heavenly home above.

His funeral will take place from his late residence, No. 3819 Sixth street, Port Mayo, SUNDAY, January 4th, at 2 o'clock P.M.  Friends of the family are respectfully invited to attend.

Washington, Portsmouth, and Arkansas papers please copy."
