and per contra, small vote is the prcmon.
itory symptom of a Wing defeat. The recent
ELECTION in this State came under the latter
category, while the election of '3s, 80 and

have re ceived returns, there is n considerable
decrease in the Loco-Foco vote and vas,
diminu,ion of the Wing vote since last fall.

In this village, on the Oath ult. Mrs. SOPHIA
FISK, in the SD year of her age. BY this dis.
pcnsation of Providence, her children are de-
prved of pions, prudent and afiectionae mo-
Their, and her husband Of tried and faithful
helper The disease which terminated life so
important to her family and so useful to the
world, by its bright reflection Of the light of en-
permental religion, was consumption. For
several years she had suffered much from i'll
health, though in the intervals she strove to be
able TO superintend the interests Of her family.
All her sickness and affections she bore with
exemplary patience and meek submission to Il C
will of God.
Her life we believe was truly that OF a chris.
tian, humble, benevolent, exemplary, and eyh-
biting uniform and unfatering trust in her Re.
deemer. Amid all the changes and trials Of life,
no one ever heard her complain. She was the
child of praying parents, and was by those pa
rents devoted to God in infancy. She was
hopefully converted at the age of fourteen or
fifteen. She united with the Church of Christ
in Orwell, in her early youth, and from that
time has adorned her profession, and manifested
the temper and enjoyed the hopes of christian.
The closing scene of life furnished what an in
telligent christian loves to find in the chamber
Of death, viz natural love of life overcome
and swallowed up by the attractive beauties Of
the Saviour and by the revealed glories of a bet
ter world and deep sense of persona sinful
ness, coupled with calm and joyful confidence

McLRoDs trial is in vigorous progress in NJ Y city
The labor OF the counsel for the State seems to be ex
cuslvely directed to the point, that Mcleod was en-
gagged in the destruction ofthe Caroline while the de-
PENDANTS counsel is pleading that is matter of no

government not himself should be held answerable for
the outrage. This argument is weakened greatly by
The circumstance that the two nations were at peace

applied to the question The position of the British

For the Herald.
A NEW DOCTRINE,

Ii Is common and trite saying that "a man can gd
good living by mnding his own business" Thu"
perhaps, may be true. Yet l think the opposite Of
this may also be true, that is, that man, or woman
either, can get good living by not mindng hs
own business This may seem, at first a startling
proposition. What can man get good living BY
not minding his business 1t may be a new doctrin
to some persons, and perhaps they may condemn m.
for bringing forward doctrine so directly opposIs
to their established opinions. They may say that hey
have lived in the world for half century and never
knew an individual who believer in this doc.
.rne, and prac,ised it, who obtaneda good living
But this doctrine is not strange than true and in
support Of it am willing to its upon facts
those stubborn things, which cannot be disputed and
! doubt not that the community will Judge according
to the facts and testimony, and decide correctly
When see person going from part Of the
neighborhood to the other, in the character of Cos,
sip, scattering round the seeds Of strife and contention,
exclaim here is positive proof Of the truth of ny
doctrine Yet this person would not say anything to
injure the character wound the feelings Of any n
dividual and would have what he has said reveal
ed to any person "for the world" but the savings and
doings of Mr.. Gossip scattered about with repeated
alterations and additions TO the manifest injury Of tho
individual concerned; Notwithstanding this he M
Gossip gets good living by not mindng his own bu
other people. When individual envying The
happiness Of others because those persons have
ed upon of conduct that Will most assureJr
command tie respect Of the world, and also using then
influence to prevent the advancement Of those ndyd
uals IN society, say here is proof that a mar
can get good living by not mnding his own business.
for they are wealthy. But whether they obtained hef
property by mindng their business or by attend
ing to other peoples affairs is the question issue
That they do not make their money by paying aiten'
ton to their own affairs is proved from the fact thai
they do not bestow sufficient attention to them maze
money in that manner.
II must therefore be evident that is through then
iaithiuness in laborng for other people, that they are
enabled TO amass wealth. The time devoted to the bu-
sness of other people far exceeds that which is d.
voted to their own, that cannot but conclude that
this is the great secret Of their prosperity From tes
facts, and more which might be named, we are led 70
believe that "a man can get good living by not mind
ing his own business IRoscrs.
