has now followed him to the believer's rest. A companionship of more than forty years was allotted to them. Most pleasantly do their images rise up before us. One path through the College grounds will always recall to us those images. He was a man of rare candor, of great gentleness of speech, and of an excellent spirit. He had a frugal home, yet always a crowded table. With a quiver like that of which the Psalmist speaks (Psalm exxvii.), alike remarkable for its fulness and the character of its contents, his family also embraced for many years a very large number of students. His dependence upon his partner, therefore, was such as to engage all virtues and all good energies in a wife. She was equal to her station, and worthy of it. The impression made by her calm and faithful spirit, her friendliness and wise care, endeared her to those who were members of her household. She was uniformly respected by all who knew her through every period of her life, the close of which, though somewhat sudden, was attended by many mercies, and met by a spirit resigned and prepared for death. Died in Quincy, Sunday, September 1st, 1850, aged 77, MRS. ELIZA SUSAN MORTON QUINCY, wife of Hon. Josiah Quincy, late President of Harvard College. So respectful and affectionate are our remembrances of this most excellent woman, that we could scarce refrain from expressing our sense of them after her departure from the earth, even if the many almost public stations which she occupied and so much adorned did not require such a commemoration of her. Her refined and dignified features, her gentle and courteous address, her modest and sincere form of speech, come up impressively before us, and remind us that only a most delicate memorial can befit the graces of her character. It is now more than a score of years since as a young guest we were first privileged to see her in her own home at Cambridge. We recall readily, for we have never forgotten, the impression which we then received from her benevolent greeting and her friendly words. Each subsequent interview or visit, with an increased ability to appreciate excellences of character, and a better instructed estimate of its highest and most difficult virtues, has led us to regard Mrs. Quincy as one of the most admirable examples of her sex in every thing that refines, softens, and elevates the best human sensibilities, while natural endowments, and ladylike graces, and true Christian acquirements, completed the engaging whole. Her politeness was uniform and natural, and without a trace of art. Her judgments were always most kind and generous. Her interest in those who were brought into incidental relations with her made friends of those who would not have been slighted if they had been left to be strangers. Her pure and hearty love of every thing that is benevolent or Christian, not only proved, but illustrated, that "the law of God was in her heart,' and that she had the precious ornament of "a meek and quiet spirit." Always upon "her tongue was the law of kindness." She was in every respect one of those pure and elevated persons, whose characters and death make it easier for us to believe in such a state beyond the grave as our faith promises to the good. The highest test which we can apply to any character is to ask ourselves whether its translation from the earth makes heaven nearer and more real to us. That test is tried and commended to us by the decease of Mrs. Quincy. Mrs. Quincy was the youngest daughter of John Morton, Esq., a disVOL. XLIX. - 4TH S. VOL. XIV. NO. III. 45 tinguished merchant and banker, of New York, whose death in 1781 committed his daughter to the care of her brother, the late General Morton, of New York. She was married in 1797, and since that period has shared the public honors and responsibilities of her distinguished husband, in the succession of eminent offices which he has filled in his long career of services to the nation, the State, the courts of justice, the chief magistracy of the city, and to the College of which he was the President and the historian,—all of which he has passed through only to make them more honorable to his successors by his unstained integ rity and his fidelity. How much of aid and strength he must have derived in many arduous and anxious labors from his late companion, her own full sympathy with him can alone afford the estimate. During the sixteen years of Mr. Quincy's Presidency over the College, Mrs. Quincy won the warm esteem and love of the members of the successive classes, and was never named but to be honored. Died in Milford, N. H., on September 3d, Rev. ELIJAH DUNBAR, aged 77. Mr. Dunbar was born in that part of Stoughton, Mass., which now forms the township of Canton. He was graduated at Harvard College in 1794, in a class which had a somewhat singular notoriety in College, on account of a half comic and half satirical poem, called "Classology," written by William Biglow, a member of the class. Mr. Dunbar was afterwards a Tutor in Williams College, and was ordained, October 23, 1799, as pastor of the church in Peterborough, N. H., where he continued to preach till February, 1827. He remained in the town, with the general good will and respect of all who had been his parishioners, till two or three years before his death, during which period he resided in Milford. After his decease, his remains were carried to Peterborough, where funeral services were performed by his friend and neighbour, Rev. Levi W. Leonard, D. D., and his successor, Rev. Liberty Billings. Mr. Dunbar was a man of a most genial nature, as simple, credulous, and unsuspecting as a child. He was reputed a good scholar before his settlement, and had a memory of remarkable tenacity; but his circumstances, and especially his trying domestic relations and afflictions, were not favorable to intellectual culture. He belonged to the Arminian school, and at one period of his ministry advocated very strongly the doctrine of the annihilation of the wicked. His life was one of many and great trials; but few men have gone through the world with a more unsullied character; few have preserved so entirely the sweetness of their affections, under sore and repeated disappointments, and few are remembered by those who knew them well with more unmingled satisfaction. We love to dwell on his memory, as that of a thoroughly good man, who had in his composition no admixture of bitterness or guile. Achilli, Dr., 308. A. Bulfinch, Rev. S.
