Certain Southern Democratic paperp, having editorially started tho idea of capturing Gen.

The Bepnb- licans will be furnished with no more campaign thunder in the shape of foolish utterances of excited oratory addressed to backwoods audiences at home rather than to the intelligence of Congress and the country.

Married In October, 1B69, she removed to her husband's residence in Ma con, transferring her qonnexon to the ciuroh of thst city in April, 1870, and re maining in that community and chnreh greatly useful, honored and beloved, nutil oailed into the inheritance of “them that are sanoiifled in Christ Jesus.” „ . , la its duration hsr lire was, lik» thst of all, “even a vipor, that appeareth for a lit tle time and then vanishe.h away;’’ but a vspor oolored and glided with rare beauty by the fight of those solid, gracious, eternal ro» aliilef, out of waichit sprang, andlnto wh.oh it vanished away, with a vanish'ng resem bling more a translation than a death Hsr na utal o laraoter wail emlaentlylova- trie, remitting to the end those qualities whxh constitute tne petuliar ohaim of early child- houd, tender .affectionateness, ready trusts fulness, uncoESCionaness of self, simplicity of heart, and cordial frankness of spirit and manner—qualities whioh, while they render ed her utexpreseioly dear to her family and intimate friends, strongly attracted even cas ual acquaintances, and won that affectionate regard which expressed Itself in the general sorrow at her death Her lot In life was that which, wnile in itself a good, and to be re ceived with thanksgiving, yet affords very strong tsmptation to human perversity and pride.

Bat the crowning beauty of her life was holiness, the power of sanotifyiog grace, seen in it all. The covenant made in child hood with her Saviour King waa to her no UQme&ain^ tiling the aoiciaa delibor&to adoption of a controlling principle aud af fection. In response to his csli, Give me thine bear;, she gave it, and thenceforth in creasingly manifested that she hid Vest her affection above, where Ubriat aitteth on the r«ht hand of Qo J.” Even among her World ly acquaiataoeea it was understood thee she was a decided Christian, carrying principle into practice; and she hsd the joy 1 of know ing tost, in instances not a few, she was the instrument ef leading such to seek hoc Bov- ionr for their uwn. as she grew in knowl edge of the gospel, whatever ahe discovered in her spirit or conduct open to the,charge of conformity to tha world was at once xe- uounoed, and her whole inflaecco made tot tell in favor ot vital godliness.

When the bpdily and mental powers are greatly wasted and broken by disease, It is so easy to consent to die, that many, even ox the nnspiritual, are able to do it, and mis take this passive assent to the inevitable for holy acquiescence In the divine will. Often, too, the circumstances of death are such that genuine Obristians have little opportu nity to manifest what they possess or the tjav.out’a grace. Not so with her.

The pres- enee and ministrations of beloved relatives and friends, tha visits of her pas.or wiih his reading uf the word, and ptayer, the pro longing of har days to meet Some dear ones wnoss faces she had not sxpeoted to behold again in the flesh, the kind attentions and sympathetic inquiries relative to her condi tion of the sorrowing outer circle not admit ted to her bedside, all these oailed forth not only lively gratitude to them, bat heartfelt thanksgiving to Him who vonchiared euoh merries, a cbeerfnl loving smi« met every anxious tender glance of those who minis tered to her, transformed hsr stok roam into a chamber of pesos, and attested that she had cut herself with all her bnidens open the Lard, and frit hit sostslri eg presence and power.

Nbw Yobk, November 8.—The Herald says it ia still doubtful which party has carried the State. It looks at present as if Potter and Seymour were elected by small majorities, but the vote ou the State ticket from Lieutenant Governor down ia eo close that it will probably take the official returns to determine it. The Herald oomfludeB that New York is still doubtful. The Sun says the votes for Lieutenant Governor, Secretary of Btate, Comptrol ler, Treasurer and Attorney General Is very oIobo. Both parties oonoede thst the returns are made with provoking alowBess, and from only a few counties be out down to 35,000. There is little doubt, however, but that it will he be tween tbeso numbers. Ths Sun’s returns give a majority of 2,162 for Potter. These figures may be diminished by the official returns, bnt the Democrats claim Potter’s election with seeming good reason. The election of Horatio Seymour, Jr., Democrat, as State E jgineer and Survey-, or, eeams lobe conceded by both parties. Tne test. that can be said of the oth er candidates is that the vote is in doubt, with the chances in favor of VT ads worth’s eleotion as Comptroller on the Hepublioin ticket, and Ward a3 Attorney General. General Carr’s friends nrge that he is tanning enough ahead of his tioket to in sure his election as Seoretary of State.
