Five vacan cies frr -a Worcester were filled with Dem ocrats. uy a majority of from one to four. It appears by he report of the Joint Committee forcounting votes for Governor, &c.. that the whole unmber of votes were 1yy.8V)2. Marcus Morton, 56.491 John Davis, 54.939 Samuel E. Sewell, 6382 F.

The New York Courier, (Whi-) says: "There is now very little doubt thai Mar cus Morton will be elected Governor of 31assuchvsetts, as there will he a clear ma jurity in the Legislature. It depends on only one contingency. If the House of Representatives should choose toAend the names of Gov.

Died, at the residence of her husband, in Sumter County, Alabama. on Sniur day, the 24th of September last, Mrs. MAIr.% N. HIDBLEa, aged 34 years 3 months and 8 days. Mrs. If. was the daughter of Mr. W m. Shivers, Sen., of Hancock Count). Ga. For years she was a consistent and useful member of the Baptist Churcb. 11er Piety was s:rictly emagetical. Sensible of her moral defile. ment, and deeply conscious or her total inability to obtain justification by the deeds of the law, the grand doctrines ofjustifien tion by the imputed righteousness of Christ, and of the divine influence were what she most cordially embraced. adhered to and delighted in. Most fully did she award to Immanuel, tho name by which she claims to be known "The Lord our Righteous neas." Her's was not a presumptuous de pendence upon God. No! She obeyed the Scripture injunction and committed the keeping of her soul in -fell-doing-" tier re!igion was built upon principle, hence it was nctive and unifhorm. it did not 'jurst forth in sudden and rapturous flights. but burned with no equal and steady flame. All whose privilege it was to know Our departed sister, iill testify that she walked with God, thIus eviucing that she was an heir of a blessed immortality. As might be expected, she died in Christian triumph. When first apprised that the physicians thought her sickness unto death, she seemed somew lint surprised, but not at all terrified; after a few moments spent in mental prayer, she observed, "i believe my terrors are all this side of the tomb, the thought of beink so unexpectedly sepa. rated from my dear husband is rather pain ful." Again closing her eyes for a few moments, she added "but much as I love my family antd friends, I can cheerfully resign them to be with Christ in Heaven." She spoke frequently of the preciosucss of the Saviour, and for some hours previ ous to her death, she was in great ecstacy, trequently exclaiming how precious is the Saviour now. Sister's If's great zeal for the welfare of the Church of which she was a member was always extraordnary, but as she drew near the "General Assembly and church of the first born." her interest seemed to iicrease fur the dear Brethren and Ststers whom she was leaving in the wilderness. She took her little daughter about eight years old by the hand and presenting her with a bible made a few very happy re marks on the use she wished her to make of it. then taking her little son about three years old on the bed, in the most solemn and impressive mantiner she besought God o- take him and make him a useful Mis sionary among the. Heathen. Next in turn after some tender admonition to her husband, she bade her pastor an ael'ct ion. ate farewell. most earnestly exhorted him to "feed the flock." Thent each of the Deacons separately (one of them her wcep ing husband.) charging eacti to till his or lice well. She next called tier servants to tier. (some 15 or 20 of whom .re mzembers of thte church.) unid gave euch a word of encouraigement :nr wyarning as she thought adopted to their case. To one she would say, ' w as so rejoiced whetn you joinied the church, but I have wvept for you since. Oh! remember that nothing but a Iir'ing Faith will enable you to die as I do." To another, "I believe yout love the Saviour. we will soon meet again in his prescnce."I Those of them wvho were impeuitent she would pat hetically ex hort to prepare with. out delay for death. Oh! we all felt that day, that angels were ini the roott and God was there, nod that it was "bectter to be ing the house of maourning than in tihe house of feasting." H aving hid all aroundl her an affectionate farewell, she fell asleep in Christ. without a struggle or a groan. Sister H. has left an affectionate hasbar,d. three children, and ntumerous friendls to mourn their loss. S. S.
