Death of Rec. Mr.. Habbard.

On Friday morning our citizens were shockeu
and pained 10 learn Of the sudden death OF the
pastor Of the Calvin Baptist church in this city,
l,ev. John Hubbard, Jr. lie arose as well as
usual and went out early to spade his garden
On coming in he remarked to his wife that h'
was afraid he had oyerworked himself as he fell
pressed for breath. Lying down he almost In
stantly expired.
On Sunday the funeral services took place
On the altar lay the remains Of the beloved pas,
tor whom we shall see no more, in front Of thai
pulpit, where on that very day he was to tel
the people Of "The power Of Jesus over the
Grave" and where he had so long and Offer
urged the people in fervent and eloquent words
to drink Of that water Of life which, IL man
drink he shall not thirst any more, and whert
he had 80 often and so winningly repeated the
words Of Jesus-"I am the resurrection and the
life; he that belieyeth in me though he wert
dead yet shall he live" And so, forcibly did
his people that day believe, as he lay in Their
loving midst, that when the bridegroom came
their pastor went forth TO meet Him with his
lamp well trimmed and burning, and they
mourned most Of all that they should see his
face no more.
The Sunday services at all the protestant
churches in the city were dispensed with and
the various ministers acted as pail bearers. AZ
ter brief services in the forenoon at his late resi-
denec, the body was removed to the Baptis
church, where hundreds availed themselves o
the privilege Of looking for the last time upor
his familiar features. beautiful even in death
At o'clock the services commenced with I
chant "Thy will be DONE" a prayer by Rev
Mr.. Darrows Of North Berwick, with whom
Mr.. Hubbard had arranged an exchange, fol
lowed, a hymn was read by Rev. Mr.. Algel
(Episcopal) and sung by the choir standing a
the head and foot Of the casket. The congrega
ton then proceeded to the Congregations
church, which is much larger, where an impress

(SIethodst), after which appropriate remarks
were made by Rev. Messrs. Barrows Of Nortt

THE MORDAUNT CASE.
From the N. Y. Tribune.

from the N. 4. ITf0une
A public not unused to sensations has been
so thoroughly nauseated with the details of
the Byron scandal that it may well be spared
a surfeit of the complicated disgusts of the
Mordaunt case. But there is a line of judg-
ment with respect to this wretched affair
which is not to be avoided. AS in the post
humous fate of Byron, we have the instance
of man of beauty and of genius doomed by
several correct women to be the hero in all
mems eyes of a chapter of damnation and
nothing less, so in that of Lady NIordaunt we
see beauty and aristocrGcy and fashion given
over by men to devils. Poetry and beauty in
man or woman do not, if these cases have
been truthfully told, save their possessors
from crime. Crime, on the other hand, does
not save society from the contemplation of
its duties and responsibilities, especially when
committed by poets and bellies. The hber-
tinism and intemperance of SO many children
of fortune cannot be dismissed with self
satisfied sneer or a shrug of disgust; for they
convey terrible pleas as we'll as terrible con-
formations. They ought to be warning to
all who write nastiness and sell 1t, and GER
tainly they ought to give us grave thought of
that mutual responsibility of the sexes which
is at the root of chronic wars and miseries.
We shall not dwell upon the particulars OF
the Mordaunt affair Up to the birth OF
child, Sir Charles Mordaunt and his wife
lived happily, till in fit of remorse, excited
by the peculiar troubles of her situation, the
lady made reiterated confession that the
child was not her husbands, but Lord Coles;
and similarly overpowered by remorse, made
the unsolicited declaration to her husband
that she had been guilty with three or four
other persons, including the Prince of Wales;
Afterwards, with the infirmity of historical
woman, she endeavored to undo the mischief
of her confession, and, calculating upon the

THE CAPTAIN OF THE BOMBAY.

AhI OhA AhAAN w LAAAb DOHADhNs
From the NJ Y. Sun,
The horrible calamity of the Oneida is
enough to sioken a brute. But is any one
weak enough to suppose that it viii cause the
adoption of measures to prevent like trage-
dies-we cannot say aocidents-in future2
Further particulars will fix the blame where
it rightfully belongs. Meanwhile can we
wholly exculpate the public men Of maritime
nations, whose duty it has been ever since
the introduction of steam into navigation, to
enact and strictly enforce proper laws to pro-
tect life on the ocean, Three-fourths of the
globe is international domain, yet there is no
international law to govern it. How easily
could such code be established National
interests, for once, instead of conflicting,
would be identical; and the number of the
contracting parties would bring an increase
of experience and intelligence to aid in
enacting nautical common sense and common
conscience into explicit tes, backed by
severe and inevitable penalties.
The first clause of such an enactment
should declare the precipitate abandonment
of one colliding vessel by the other to be
piracy, and its punishment death by hanging.
There is no radical distinction between the
captain who kills seafarers for positive gain
and him who kills them in order to avoid the
loss of money or reputation in which the iden-
tifcation of his ship and consequent legal in
vestigation might result We speak from
knowledge when we say that the sea swarms
with such pirates, and also from knowledge
when we say that probably the United States
furnishes an unduly large proportion of them.
The practice of abandonment is by many
considered ''smart, and we know what that
| means.
We must not judge conclusively of the cap
tain of the Bombay before his side of the
| story reaches us. Yet we can safely assert
that whether he heard the hailing and the
five great guns, or heard them not, has no
bearing on the case. 1t is sufficient that his
ship struck another hard enough to let star.
light through her, and that he stood on his
course without knowing whether she needed
help. Yet let us not grow warm over this
single affair. The practice is common at sea-
there is no adequate law to prevent it, and
politicians are, in all countries, too busy with
private schemes to unite upon such law as
is necessary for the general safety.

AN APPEAL TO Pennsylvania.

from tHe NJ ]. WOTII
We all remember the time when the De-
mocracy of Pennsylvania was an element of
vast and concentrated power in our political
atmosphere. When it struck, it was with
vigor and effect. Its discipline was perfect,
ats organization thorough and complete. 1t
made Presidents, and whoever had its support
was always winner. OF the ten after Wash
ington chosen by the Electoral Colleges, the
vote of Pennsylvania was given for no less
than eight, all Democrats; the other two,
Harrison and Taylor, being exceptional. Such
was the power of Democratic Pennsylvania
down TO the disastrous schism of 1860, when
the great party which, as we have said, made
Presidents was shattered to its centre, and,
the friends of one candidate generally desert
ing to the common enemy, the Republican
abolitionists, and those of the other placed

THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT AND
THE NEGRO VOTE.

THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT AND
THE NEGRO VOTE.
From the NJ Y. Herald.
According to our special advices from
Washington bill will shortly I've passed by
Congress to enforce the fifteenth amendment
in tho several States aud Territories. The
subject was brought up before the Judiciary
Committee of the House the other day, when
Mr. Bingham argued that the only object
sought was to overcome the local laws of the
States, so that the negroes could vote, and to
enact penalties against all persons conniving
To prevent the negroes from voting, in con-
travention of the fifteenth amendment. This,
he said, was accomplished by his bill, and
such bill, he contended, was necessary, be-
cause the amendment itself did not carry any
punishment with it to persons who might
choose to evade or defy it. Judge Davis, of
the committee, did not think the bill referred
TO sufficiently explicit, and so on; from all
which we may, safely assume that law Will
shortly be passed to enforce said amendment.
What, then, will be the effect of this negro
vote in the several States in which the negro
is wholly or to o great extent excluded from
the ballot box is the question we are called to
consider. It is estimated that under this new
amendment the black vote of the United
States will not be less than eight hundred
thousand. The bulk of it is in the late slave
States. 1t is strongest in the cotton States,
surprising the white vote in several of them,
and is a formidable element in all of them.
The anti-Re publican forces in those States
Democrats or conservatives as they may be
called, will probably win over large portion
of this black element to their side in the in
terval to their election for the next Congress-
but the Northern and Southern border State
Democracy have as yet made no signs, except
those of continued hostility to ''the blasted
Niger"
Yet it is possible that the Northern and
Southern border State Democracy may lose
half dozen States or more by this foolish
policy of hostility to the negro on the old
Democratic ground of the Dred Scott deci-
sion. According to the census of 1860 the
colored population in the States named was
