DIED, in this place, on the 29th instant, Mrs. SARAH A. McGINTY, wife of our esteemed fellow-citizen, M. B. McGinty, aged 27 years.  She was a member of the Methodist E. Church South, and died as she had lived—in the faith.  She leaves behind an affectionate husband and three little children to follow after her.  They mourn and bewail her departure, but they mourn not as those without hope.  She cannot return to them, but they can go to her.  Gold bless and protect the little children, whom thou lovest, and may this sad dispensation be sanctified to the eternal weal of the grief-smitten husband, and may her demise from this vale of tears and low-ground of sorrow to the mansions of the blessed, prove an additional attraction to the loved ones she has left lingering on the shores of mortality to draw them to her embraces again, in that happy home where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are forever at rest.  So mote it be.
