The Portland Advertiser finds niattei serious enough in the letter published in the New York Evening Post, and written by a prominent supporter of Governor Chamberlain in Portland, to demand ex planation. The faeetiotisness with which it treated the idea that the Chamberlain movement meant treachery and disorgan ization to the republican party, has all vanished before the frank avowals to the contrary In this letter of Chamberlain's friend. The effrontery which enabled it to pile falsehood upon falsehood, and sneer at suggestions that tiiis movement was “independent of party," has abandoned it in the face of the fact that the charges made by us and other republican papers against Chamberlain are proved to be true from this letter written by one of Ids bosom friends. Tiiis writer says that Chamberlain will have, if necessary, the undivided support of the “Democratic nu mbershe also says “the movement of Chamberlain is quite independent of party, and will not be subjected to the rules of political rings and partisan cau cuses it is going to be a joint operation between the democrats and hamberlain republicans. And what explanation does the Advertiser make to these assertions of Chamberlain's friend, no insignificant or irresponsible man either What can it say It pronounced Mr. Paine of Han ger, “indiscreet" lbr only referring to the coalition, but when the correspondent of the Post, one of the leaders in the Cham berlain movement, lets out the whole scheme, the Advertiser crouches like a whipped puppy, ami says the letter only “gives out hasty impressions 11 Tiiis is not all, in the attempt to explain, the Ad vertiser plunges into the same pit with the Post writer, declaring its opposition to a legislative caucus, and thus casts adrift from party usage and swings off into the independent, Democratic-Chamberlain movement by its own announcement. Why should it undertake to apologize for its friends in Portland and elsewhere pay ing no attention to caucuses in the late election and joining the democrats to elect representatives, when it declares it self against Tl legislative caucus? We fail to see. The writer in the Post told the truth the Advertiser covered the movement with a eioak of fasehood as long as it could, and now it stands by its own words an avowed supporter of the infamous coali tion with the democracy. Its mysteriou utterauces about “a new plan,” and the for mation of a “party within a party,” meant what has been expressed more fully and clearly in the Chamberlain letter referred to. Such a coalition could have hut one result—complete surrender of Governor Chamberlain and his friends to the demo cracy. This scheme, however, is to be a mag nificent failure. Thanks to the Argus and Advertiser, the Democratic State Conven tion, to the Roberts’ and Chamberlain tickets, to the Chamberlain hollers in va rious towns, and to “indiscreet” Chamber lain men like Paine of Bangor and the Portland correspondent of the Post, the character of (lie movement is well under stood, and that is enough to kill it. We have a dislike to kicking a dead body, but if the friends of this Chamberlain move ment have not sense enough to understand and realize the condition of their pet and remove it. while they may decently do so, they must he accountable for all the rough treatment it receives between this time and next January, when the republican doctors will pronounce it dead! dead!! dead A greater political swindle was never undertaken in the State; a more complete defeat than awaits it is not re corded in our history. There is not a re publican honestly elected, of those claim ed as Chamberlain men, who will go an inch outside of the republican legislative caucus to support the Democratic-Cham berlain coalition notone. This being the ease, the scheme utterly and contempt ibly fails, and Us epitaph is the next thing in order,—to which pious task we com mend the Advertiser and the big brother letter writer of the Evening Post. ATTEMPT TO GET CLEAR A LIME ROCK RAK'K RUBBER, The New Vork Herald gives the following account of an attempt to get clear one of the Lime Hock Bank robbers. It has not beer successful, however, us the trial of '.lie eul prit has commenced or is about to commence The authorities of the State of Maine, ai well as the officers of the United States con scientiously engaged in bringing violators ol the law to punishment are considerably exer cised over the now well known fact that Dis trict Attorney Davis is actively engaged in endeavoring to procure the release from jail —where he is at present confined on the charge ot bank robbery—ol “Charley Adams,” alias .John A. Stevens, alias Lang dom The robbery perpetrated by Adams ana bis gang upon the Lime Hock Bank of Hoekland is ot too recent a date to require any rehearsal. The robbery was shrewdly planned and bohliy executed. A large amount of money and bonds were taken, fot which Adauis ami several of his fellows in crime were arrested, since which time they have been confined in jail at Belfast, Me., ^waiting their trial. Among the most prominent of his many vill .iuous transactions may be mentioned tin daring and successful robbery of the Concord Bank, at Concord, Mass.; the Amcnia Bank in Dutchess county, K. V.; the Woltborc Bank, at Woliboro. hi. it. aud u host ofothel like nefarious depredations. But justict seems to have at last overtaken him, and tin raward of his long career of crime is si suit ti be meted out to him. There are those, how ever, who have undertaken to procure hi ri b ass- through the instrumentality of thi government, and are actively engaged in at tempting to gain the cur and obtain the aid o the United States Treasury officials to efi'ee their object. The man so assiduously labor in* on behalf of Attain* is William IV Wood x-Chief of the United (States detectives hacked bv the ex-golicitor of tlic* Treasury Jordan. Jordan, however, lias little influence in government circles in Washington, the Secre'.ary of the Treasury and the Solicitor or the Treasury being opposed to compound 1 ipg felony in the manner desired by Mr. Wood, the robber Adams and bis unscrupu lous friends. Yet, notwithstanding the oppo sition of the Treasury officials, it is qu.tc possible that Adams may escape the conse quences of bis villainous transactions. His discharge is sought by ex-Chief Wood on novel grounds. Win n. in 1MU7, a large num ber ot seven-thirty bonds were stolen from the Treasury Department. Wood captured a plate which he said must have been the one from which the seven thirties had been print led; hut the plate was so badly battered that 1 no trace of the engraver could be found. The discovery of the plate led the authorities of the Treasury Deaprtmcnt to declare spu rious the seven-thirties which had been sto len. llut it is said that those found corres ponded in the numbers and svrics with the issue recorded on the books of the Depart ment. A reward of $15,000 was ottered for the discovery of the “counterfeit plate." hut it is not known whether it was paid. Mean time a number of hankers of this city who had ri ccivcd the seven-thirties, and who knew them to be genuine, began suits in the United States Court against the government to recover $70,000, the amount of their ag- j gregate loss, and the cases are yet to lie tried. Ex-Chief Wood now says that the no- torious burglar Charley Adams, alias I.ling don Moore, can swear that the plate was the i one from which the seven-thirties were “struck that the bonds were spurious, and that he can save the government tiie amount for which it is sued if he is brought lrom the Maine State I’rison and pardoned for his late crimes. There are facts in this case which deserve mention and call for official inquiry. When Adams’ friends failed in their application to the Secretary of the Treasury and the Solic itor o( the Treasury application was made to District Attorney Davis. Whatever in lluences were brought to hear in tiiat direc tion, certain it is that Mr. Davis wrote to the authorities of the State of Maine to postpone the trial of Adams in order that he might lie a witness for the government in the case of the $70,000 suit. Should Mr. Davis be suc cessful in obtaining Adams’ release from the State I’rison of Maine the rescue of that no torious robber from his merited fate would be an easy matter. That such is the intention of the'Distriet Attorney, who, of course, un derstands his position, and of the friends of the notorious robber Adams, the boastful declarations of ex-Chief of United States De tectives are a sufficient guarantee. A few days will decide whether the United States authorities will consent to compound a felony for $70,000 without the chance of bringing any of the parties to the several robberies of Adams to justice, or whether the administra tion of justice in tile federal departments is not corrupt. G EX ERA L XE If,S’. The business of the Freedman's Bureau at the south has been closed, w ith the exception of that connected with educational associa tions. The Navy Department has issued full or ders for despatching two parties to Sicily to observe the total eclipse of the sun next De cember. The products of the Lake Superior copper mines, so far tins year, are estimated at 1,000,000 tons. The Presbyterians of Ithaca, N. V., are considering the question of woman's right to vote in church councils. The trade in adulterated milk is not profit able in the old country. An offender has been sent to prison four months with hard labor for adulterating milk with water. The French-German war gave Italy her long-looked-for opportunity at Rome, and Russia appears likely to make it the occasion for pursuing her ancient designs against Tur kcy. Washington county, Iowa, has no jail, and so the supervisors have imported a couple of iron cages, which can be placed in any room, and hold criminals very nicely. The Pension bureau has lately sent an agent to each pension district to examine and select surgeons for duty in connection with claims of pensioners. Arrangements are perfecting on behalf of I the Common Council of New Vork for the i funeral of Admiral Farragut. It is expected that the ceremonies will take place on the 1st J day of October next. The summer watering places have made more money during the past season than at that of nny previous year. I A private letter from Mobile, dated the middle of last week, says that on the day of writing there were thirty cases of yellow-fever in the city, and the disease was spreading. Three-fourths of the pictures hitherto exhi bited in the Museum of the Louvre, at Paris, have been carefully packed up and sent off from Paris to an unknown destination. There now no longer remain any but pictures of the French school. It is reported that the weevil in wheat in St. Clair county, Indiana, is unusually nu merous at present, and that sad havoc is be ing made in wheat in the granaries and also in the flour mills. Some of the millers have stopped buying wheat for the present, in 1 consequence of this tact. Wilhelmshohe, where Napoleon has been directed to take up his residence, is one of the greatest palaces in Germany. It is situ ated near Cassel, and with its celebrated park, adjoining chateaux, and horticultural won ders, is an abode fit lor an emperor in the acme of his prosperity and greatness. 1 Of the troops sent last summer to North I Carolina, it lias been decided to leave three companies on duty there and order the rest north at once. One company will lie sta i tioned at Halcigh, one at Graham and one at Yanceyvillc. The United States Court is j taking voluminous testimony in regard to all the features of tile late disorder, which is printed as fast as given. Governor Holden’s friends claim that it fully justifies his use ol the military to repres disorder. Here is a Western obituary poem: “Grim death has taken darling little Jerry— The child of Joseph and Syrena Howells;— Nine days he wrestled with the dysentery, And then expired in his little bowels.” THE IRON-CLAD CAI'TAIN. From the statements of the survivors of the English iron-clad Captain, it appears that at about midnight on the Oth instant, the ship was in company with the Channel fleet, about forty miles ofl' Cape F'inisterre, cruising under double reefed fore and main topsails and fore-topmast staysails, and mainsail and foresail hauled up, there being at the time a very strong breeze and heavy sea. The starboard watch had been called at 12 o'clock and were mustering when the squull t struck the ship on the port side, causing her to give a heavy lurch to the starboard. As she did not right herself, Captain Uurgoyne, 1 who was on the bridge, gave the order to I lower the fore-top sail, hut in consequence of the yards being braced sharp up, the ship at the time being on the port tack, it did not come down. Orders were promptly given to let go the Ice-biwrcs, and man the topsail down-hauls. Hut by this time the ship had been again struck by a heavy sea, and she was completely on her beam-ends, with water pouring down the tunnel; and she then turned bottom upward, ami gradually sunk, stern first. From the time the ship was first struck to her going down, only from five to ten minutes elapsed. The number on board at the time was about 520. When the Captain was first lost sight of it was thought that she bad missed the fleet, w hich is not an uncommon occurence on a dark night and when it is blowing bard, and no one imagined she had gone down. Hut alas! the sad fact soon bacame apparent when flr.'t was picked up a boat, then a spar, and subsequently one of tlu* men, who bad lashed himself to the grating, but did not succeed in saving his life. On the morning of Thursday last, the Monarch, a turret-ship. Captain John h. Co m me re 1, which had been searching around the coast, b'.ought intelligence to the flagship that one warrant officer ami seventeen men had landed from the Captain. The Monarch went back and picked them up fl Cape Finisterre, and they were transferred to the Vo 1 ago. James May, gunner, says that he was aw ak cned about 12 o’clock at night on the fith by some marines making a noise outside his cabin, and finding the ship more than unusually un steady he dressed himself to go on deck, and see if the guns were all right in the turrets. When he got up into the turret, the ship gave a heavy roll to starboard, and continued in that position, gradually heaving over more and more until he found water coming into the port hole on the top of the tunnel, through which he crawled and then found himself overboard. He, however, succeeded with five others, including Capt. Burgoyne, in reach ing the steam pinnace, which was floating bottom uppermost, and observing the launch passing w ithin a few yards of them he cried out “Now jump, men, this is your only chance!” He and three others did so and suc ceeded in getting into the boat. They in vain endeavored to regain the pinnace to save the captain, but the sea was running so high that it prevented them from fulfilling the task, and in the attempt they were struck by a heavy sea, nearly swamping the boat, and wash ing one man, George Meyers, overboard. They then determined to let the boat run be fore the sea, as land was known to be leeward of them. About two o’clock they sighted a light on Cape Finisterre, and afterwards ob served land. They made for it. and succeed ed in landing about noon of the 7th at Finis ter re. Domestic Xclus. The l’ress says the numerous friends of Hon. Writ. P. Haines of Biddeford will lie cheered to learn that there is now a prospect of his eventual recovery. Though yet unable even to sit up in bed. or to see any but members of his immediate family, no dangerous symptoms have been manifest for about two weeks. During the ten weeks of confinement his mind has been entirely calm and clear. The politi cal and financial disturbances in which he had such personal and pecuniary interests have been carefully concealed from his knowledge. The Argus is glad to notice that Messrs. Chisholm Co., have added another branch to their extensive Railway and News agencies viz: The Portland Kennebec Railroad. This firm by the complete management ol their business have gained an extensive and favorable reputation as Railway News agents. Their employees on the P. K. Railroad will be dressed in a uniform similar to that in use on other roads under, their control, which will enable the travelling public more readily to recognize them, who are always supplied with a complete‘stock of the latest novels, periodi cals guide books, papers, &e. The Bridgton News announces that Mr. S. C. Andrews, and others, of Buckfield are making arrangements to establish a factory fur the manufacture of shovel handles in Bridgton village, and that a building is being erected opposite Perry Taylor’s saw milh for their accommodation. The foundatior for the building is already laid, and the build ing will be pushed forward to completion as soon as the lumber can be made ready. Tin business will give employment to fifteen 01 twenty men, and will make a valuable addi tion to the manufacturing interests of the town, One of the most interesting sights at tin State Fair was Mr. R. S. Terry's colony ol bees. The docility and politeness of the indus trious little insects indicated that they had beer pupils of a proficient trainer, and seemed almost wonderful to the spectator. Mr. Torrey is General Manager of the United States Bee Ilive Company, and receives and fills orders for the celebrated “United States Bee Hive.” His address is Bangor. He also had on exhi bition some superb honey. Mr. Torrey prob ably has no superior in the country as a man ager of bees, and has the best patent hives. F. Shaw Bros., builders of the great tan nery at Winn, builders and owners of tanner ies at Jackson Brook, Forest City, Vanccboro and other places, have purchased llinkley township, Washington County, and propost to build a tannery on Grand Lake Stream, the the famous fishing ground for Schoodic sal mon. The purchase includes the stream fron the outlet of Great falls," a distance of om mile. The sad news reached Bath Monday fore noon, that Charles W. Owen, son of Capt Chas. Owen of that city, was just alive a New Orleans, and that there was no possibh hope of his recovery. No particulars wen given, but the Times thinks he has undoubt edly fallen a victim to that terrible scourge yellow fever, which has been so depopulutinj that city. The Watervillo ilail says the bouse of Mr A. J. Shorey, about a mile and a half cast o the West Village, was burned, on Thursda; afternoon last. The family were absent at th time, and lost everything but the clothes the; had on. Loss about $400—no insurance Cause of tire unknown. The installation of Uev. Edward V. Hincks as pastor of State Street Church in Portland will take place October 18th. The Press say Prof. Barbour of Bangor is expected to preacl the sermon on the occasion.
