DIED--On the 19th instant, after a lingering disease of some months continuance, in the meridian of life and usefulness, Daniel Barry, President of the Sparta Academy in this county. He was a son of the Emerald Isle. He had taken a conspicuous part in her politics on the side of Liberty, and when the storm of power and persecutions arose, he fled to the sanctuary of the persecuted man -- to America. With and intellect, vigorous and inexhaustible fount of science and solid learning, he became a profitable instructor of youth and many of the rising professional characters of the day, who were his disciples afford simple testimony of the success with which he reared the tender thought. In politics, Sidney; and in morals, Addison, was his model. In generous, sincere friendship, his heart was warm; and in every situation he was manly and independent. He had left a large and respectable family to mourn their irreparable loss and the Genius of Literature will long weep the ruin of a favorite votary. Enough.
Peace to the manes departed worthy!
Can thy feeble eulogist recall thee from the tomb?
"Can storied urn or animated bust
Back from the tomb recall the fleeting breath?
Can Honor's voice provoke the silent dust?
Or flattery soothe the dull cold ear of Death?"
Oh! No, 'tis impossible, I will then venerate thee.
Tho' thou art gone, and strive to imitate thy worth,
The best monument to thy memory.
