Sudden death of a Baltimore Minister.

--We clip the following from the Baltimore Clipper, of the 16th instant:

‘ Yesterday morning we witnessed a melancholy affair in St. Mark's Episcopal Church, West Lombard street. While the services were being conducted, the minister, Rev. Mr. McFarland, was observed to turn deadly pale and fall into his seat. Several members of the congregation hastened to his assistance, when it was found that he had received a paralytic shock. Mr. McFarland was removed to his residence on West Fayette street, where he expired shortly after. The deceased was an eloquent and most able expounder of the Gospel, and his sudden death has cast a gloom over his congregation and a large circle of acquaintances.
