We have before us to day, my Christian friends, inclosed in that quiet coffin, the remains of the first President of Marshall College, Dr. FREDERICK AUGUSTUS RAUCH. His death took place at Mercersburg, on the morning of the second day of March, 1841, now eighteen years ago. He was buried on the fourth of March, with large funeral attendance, in the corner of a retired grove belonging to the College grounds, which was then first set apart for cemetery purposes. It was a bright, sunny day; in notable contrast, I remember, with an uncommonly rough storm of snow toward the close of the same week; a day, which was made memorable for the nation at large, by the inauguration of Gen. Harrison as President of the United States—a most brilliant political occasion, destined to be itself dismally overclouded, a very short time afterwards, by the mournful intelligence of his death.
