Amongst the best gifts of Gods provi-
dence is the life and example of a good
man. Abstract conceptions Of the slmpll-
city and harmony and beauty Of Chris
,ian character, ill our minds with gene
I al admiration of an ideal condition of
human existence; but the presence OF
Christian virtues. and their daily cXhibi-
ton in the practical concerns oflle,when
exempliicd in the person of one going
in and out amongst us" teaches most
cmphaticallv the important truth that re-
ligIon should regulate the heart and mind
in every station, every duty, and every
| relation of man.
When in the mysterious dealings OF
that infinitely wise Being "whose ways
are past finding out" we ale called to
witness the departure of such man. and
while the keen and bitter shafts of anguish
are piercing the souls of bercaved rela-
lions and friends, it may be allowed to
mingie with their Iaboring grief rnd smoth-
cred agony, the brealhings of spirit
that would lead our thoughts in gratitude
to the author of all mercies, who for "A
time. though brief, vouchsa ed us such a
| blessing.
The death of General JAMES SEwALL,
| which occurred on The 2Sh OF January
last, al his residence in Elkton, MARYLAND d,
has ocessiuned these reflections.
He was born of respectable parcntage.
and received the education then usually
furnished b, the academies of the day.
At very early age he became deputy
IN the Clerks Office of Cecil county, in
which station he remained until the resig-

of steel" did his generous nature cling to
"A suffering friend. and never did he more
truly than in such case exhibit what he
really was, a noble, splendid specimen OF
his race.
His home was his earthly paradise.
With sensibility alive to the tenderest
and most delicate Offices of conjngal, par
entail and iilial love and duty, which give
to the domestic circle its sweetest charm,
he acknowledged and adored the unboun-
ded goodness of that Being who made his
cup to overflow with rich and abundant
blessings.
The hand Of friendship itself, however
must touch hut gently those more sacred
ties which made him husband and faith
er-they vbrate with pang that none
can know but widowed rclct and all Or
phaned cfid.
The carly choice of his affection is
brokcn-llcarted widow-no-her heart is
not broken-it is s,aid upon One that is
able and willing 10 supply grace in exact
proportion as lie requires its exercise.
Long taught to know that "aillictlnns
spring not from the ground" and that ull-
erring wisdom and unmiXed love arc con-
cealed in all The mysterious dispensalions
| Of Him who sees not as man seeth, she
has now witnessed the power of the 'laith
as it is liz Jesus" to calm the fears, and
IA innate the hopes, and speak peace to the
soul of a dying Christian; and in humble
and holy hope may say with the Psalm
list, II shall 90 to him, but he cannot
come to me-" The deep-toned anguish
of two lovely daughters and an only son,
responding to the silent tears of a heart
stricken widow, testify how deeply and
tenderly every affection of their souls was
entwined around that object OF their love,
who now sleeps the sleep Of death, in the
dark and silent vault. Afflicted souls!
| May that God who tempers the storm to
the shorn lamb, send his angel Of mercy 10
soolhe your sorrows. to upraise your
thoughts and hearts to him, to show you
the vanity of human life and human hope,
and to fix your faith and trust, where no
time nor chance can sever the bonds Which
bind the Christian with the chords of love
to heavens God and King.
The object of your fond affection is in
the bosom of his Lord--no more to SUI
| fer pain or toil-no more to die
In the bright mansions of his Father
and his God he warts your comlng-the
steps he trod are before you-Iollow on
in the good old palh-and soon will sor-
row and signing lee away, and all be
peace and joy and love for ever and for
ever.

time ago that an individual, who abused us
through the columns of the Gazette, and
who we ''paid back in his own coin,"
had reported TO some of his friends that he

heard the same thing from several sources.
and the Susquehanna Advocate, "a paper
with which we spara little occasionally

Now in the matter of the report, refer

it, whoever he may be, we pronounce 10

INDIcrMENr OF Coz. WEBB.--The

the following account Of the termlna'
ton of the proceedings against Col.
Webb: "His Honor. after an exami-
nation Of the Indictment declared that
there WIGS no count in the indictment
charging the defendant with any
crime against the statute of this State.
That the indictment merely charged
that the defendant left the State with
intent TO give or receive a challenge;
but did not charge that the defend
ant had either giUeR or received a chat
lenge-or fought a duel; thatno Court
under the law could infict a punish
ment for mere intent. when that intent
was not charged 10 have been carried
out by any act that was punishable
by any law of this State. Col. Webb
was therefore discharged from further

official information has teen received
that the Mexican General, Adrian

On the 3lst, two superb battallons

numbered in all 1000 men.
There are 5000 men in Jalapa,
which is the number of the second

Much enthusiasm prevails among
them. The expedition will sail hence
the day following the arrival of the
troops from Jalapa, which will be a.

Accounts from different parts of the
country agree in stating that a fall in
the prices Of live stock has taken
place to a considerable extent. That
a still further fall is confidently an.
ticipated, may be gathered from the
terms upon which Government have
just concluded their contracts for
beef and pork for the use of the
navy.
Prices have declined for most de-.
scriptlons of produce during the past
week, very extensive parcels having
been pressed upon the market. The
home demand having been good, and
there being still several export or.
ders for various Of the leading CONT.

TO speculate in articles where prices
rate low, and stocks are moderate.
