DIED—At the residence of Dr. E. Robbins, on the 10th inst., Rev. S.S. Bascom of Lafayette county, Ill, aged 75 years. He was an uncle of Mrs. Robbins, and came here from Dixon Springs, MO., where he had been for his health, but it seems that he received no benefit, and when he arrived here the fatal disease had too strong a hold upon him for medical aid to be of any avail. He was a Christian gentleman fully prepared for the change.
