DEATH OF GOVERNOR nORR.

The New Bedford Mercury announces,
On the authority Of private letter, the
death Of THOMAS w. DOM, al Providence
Rhode ISLAND, on the 21st inst A cor
respondent Of tn N. Y Ereaing Post who
visited the deceased during his illness thus
speaks Of him:
"Passng through Providence, the 9TH
err day, | took an opportunity to call On
Gov. Dorr, who, am sorry to say, is Iy-
ing very low. His diseass has become
a confirmed jaundice. He has been
great sufferer, except at short intervals,
during and since the tina Of his confne-
ment in the Bastile of the Algerines of
Rhode Island. His cell was upon the
ground floor, cold, damp, and badly ven
,lIated, every way calculated to operate
most destructiveIy upon q constitution
like his.
1t is source Of deep regret that one so
worthy, should meet with no better fate.
But it has been ever thus. The world
has always crucGed its best friends, and
afterwards built monuments to their re-
nown. 1t will be so with Gov. Dorr.--
His name will be recorded, in ali time, as
the friend and defender Of popular liber-
ty. 1t will be engraven with those Of
Sidney, Hampden, Williams, Lafayette,
and the host who have sacrificed friend
ship, reputation, and life, upon the altar
Of liberty and equal rights. And like
theirs, his name will become a Watchvord
throughout future years, to arouse pa
triotism to resolute action in defiance of
danger"
Weekly miners' express. (DuBuque, Iowa) 184?-1849, 1847-09-15

and manifest IN anxiety to act so as to-
meet his approval. His irankness and
sincerity have made impressions upon
his friends and associates, which a stran-
ger will readily notice.
"Mr. Wright lives in the same plain,
simple, unostentatious style Of the farm
ers Of this town, any one Of whom is al
ways met with the cheering smiles Of
welcome at his hospitabIe threshold. In
dress he is uniformly plain. At home it
IS not dislinguishable from that Of good
farmers. His agricultural labors, doubt
not, have essentially contributed to his
continued good health. During my long
acquaintance with him, have never
seen the least particle OF irritation, or
any manifestation of petulence or ILL.,
temper. The most violent assaults of
political enemies never disturb him. He
is at all times, and on ali occasions, ,he
same calm, dignifed, respected man that
he is in the Senate of the United States.
An unkind word never escapes him. He
wounds the feelings Of no one.
"Mr. Wright WIS married at Canton,
in the fall Of 1888, to the daughter Of a
gentleman, in whose family he had al
ways boarded when there. A more at
tentive, kind and af1ectionate husband
does not exist. A cross word, or even an
unklnd look, has never passed between
him and his wife. Mr.. Wright, we veri-
lysbeieve, has not a personal enemy in
the world. He cannot be said to have
any amusements. although when time
permits, he may sometimes be seen with
fishing rod in hand. His neighbors who
chance to differ with him in politics, es-
teem and admire him as man, in all the
relations Of citizen, neighbor and a
friend. They feel proud Of him, and
sincerely rejoice at his success, and but
for the strength :of partizan ties, would
vote for him for any office. Not a re-
spectacle citizen in Canton, ever speaks
disrespectfulIy or unkindly of bim.--
When he returns from Congress, you
will see the old aud the young, the rich
and the poor, hocking to see and welcome
him home-to congratulate him and to
communicate their good wishes and pray
ers for his prosperity and happiness
bonaParte was never more beloved by
his soldiers. than is Mr.. Wright by his
neigh bors With them he is the stan
dard Of perfection. Their good opinion
is fast spreading over the land, and in due
time his private virtues as well as his
public. fame, will be cherished in the ma
ton, as they are now in Canton and ST..
Lawrence"
