A good photograph is equivalent to an examina tion into one's conscience. It places under the eye more than one secret foible, that we are loth to ac knowledge. That man of fifty, or sixty If you choose, it lie be sincere, does not murmur when looking at his photograph, "Gracious heaven how old 1 am How. nil these wrinkles mine!” “What, this sad. worn, furrowed face belong to me One i» stupifled, and this is increased in a very disagree able manner when showing this picture to some friends. One hears them exclaim: Oh, how per fect. It is yon. Now you have a portrait that looks just like von.” Thunk you. Although we may believe ourselves to be sensible aud philosophical, and despite all our endeavors to pluck from our hearts all .ts illusions of vanity, yet we always have in uie of us a portrait of ourselves much finer than the reality. Tne inner man is always young. Do we come across an interesting book, and feel the same enthusiasm as at twenty? Does a touching story bring tears to our eyes? Does a beautiful face charm u» as it did at twenty Then we believe that wo are only tvventv. 1 am sure that w? cu the old men of Troy standing up before Helen, crie i out, f,How beautiful she is!'} they forgot their age: thev believed themselves to be young. Be advised by me, have your photograph taken. Go to A. W. Kimball’s, 1Q6 Water 0t.» maybMtl __AUGUSTA, MK Cucumber Wood Pumps A.ND TUBING.

Augusta, July 2d, 187*. W. M, Til AYE II *fc HON. CAB MANNERS The English ideas are prevailing, that a man’s fare entitles him to a seat, and that railroad companies, and not passengers, must furnish sittings to their customers. For this change in public sentiment, the ladies have only to thank themselves. It is the rarest thing for a New York woman to thank a gentleman for yielding his seat. It is accepted with an air of impertinence that seems to marvel at the impudence of a man for sitting down at all. Two wo men will occupy three seats, though the man is standing who yielded his sitting to the new-comers. If a lady comes into a car with an associate, and a gentleman 'gets up to make room for her, she will watch her chances and smuggle in her male friend, leaving the polite gentleman to hang on by the car-strap. Men tire of this; and, tired by their work and anxious to read their papers, the great majority keep their seats to the end. It is a com mon thing for mothers to take a four-vear old in their arms, and enter the cars,'con fidently expecting that no man will be brute enough to see a woman standing up with a child. The seat yielded, the child is slapped down in it, and the woman looks around f or somebody to give her a seat. These li tl; tricks are well understood, and, after standing a few blocks, the mother will sit down and take the child in her lap. Nobody yields a seat in an omnibus nor at a table. Gentlemen don’t give up their state-rooms because ladies have to sit up; and there is growing a feeling that if pas sengers cannot find seats in one car they must take the next.—Pen and Plow.

The Republicans of Augusta arc requested to meet at GRANITIC IIALL, On Friday Evening, September 11th, at 7K o’clock, for the purpose of nominating two candidates for Representatives to the Legislature. Per order of PAUL P. HALL, 1 DAVID CARGILL, I H. 8. OSOOUD, M. M. SIONE, y,,„„ COLUMBUS COTTLE, I Lomm.ttee. T. W. FOSS, 8. S. BROOKS, J KENNEBEC~SENAT0RIAl7N0M [NA TION. The Kennebec Senatorial convention held yesterday nominated Dr Albert G. French of Fayette as a candidate to fill the vacancy occasioned by the withdrawal of Mr. Mayhew. The nomination is a sterl ing one. Mr. French is a practising phy sician in Fayette, where he was born, is a graduate of Waterville College and regu larly educated to his profession, lie com menced the practice of medicine in Fair field, but subsequently removed to Fay ette, his native town. lie is in the prime of life, able and popular in his locality. He has been Chairman of the board of selectmen in Fayette nine years, and though a firm republican, receives regular ly the full vote of his town as selectman. A few of our usually reliable exchanges were led into the error last week of attrib uting the difficulties In the South to the imagination of northern electioneering agents. We imagine they are convinced by this time that they were greatly de ceived. Even the conservatives of the South admit the outrages committed, while endeavoring to excuse them. It is prob bable there will be peace for a while in the South, occasioned by the presence of na tional troops and alarm at the leeling man ifested in the North, but we may be sure that white and black republicans will not be free to vote and talk until they are more fully protected than at present. Some one has sent us as a cfirhxity a copy of the caucus call of Dr. Snow’s lit tle party at Winthrop. The lime of the caucus is to-morrow, and the principal ob ject is to make war upon Senator Hamlin. The manifesto is loud, but we imagine 'this is not a good time for Dr. Snow’s par ty, and that it will melt away in the Sep tember sun never to be heard of again. POLITICAL. A movement hat been set on foot for a eon vention of southern republicans, to meet in Atlanta, Ga., to promote the cause of recon Struction. Tlioughout the country the democrats have again put on their butternut clolhea, and are marching once more in the old paths. Speaking of a Western artist, a Cincinnati critic aaya, sadly “He possesses some merits aa an artist, but it is hard to say whether it lies in landscape or marine painting; you never esn tell his cows from his ships, except when they hare their tails exalted, when the absence of spars betrays their character. Even then they may he mistaken for schooners scudding under hare poles.” FLECTION NEXT HONDA Y. The annual election in Maine or State and county officers, also the election of members of Congress, will take place next Monday. The name of Nelson Dingley Jr. leads the republican ticket. The pres ent members of Congress arc all renomi nated, and the county and senatorial tick ets have been nominated with general unanimity. Thus far all is well. But the duty of bringing out a full vote at the polls yet remains to be performed. Within a few days circumstances have occurred that create an interest in the re sult of our election which at the opening was not anticipated. We refer to the fearful outrages in the South against black and white republicans, the recital of which brings to mind the days of Border lluflian ism and the heroism of Old John Brown, and impresses upon all thinking republi cans that the mission of their [tarty is by no means ended. The vote of Maine must show to the country that the republican party is as vigorous and determined in the cause of Equal Bights as ever, and correct the opinion prevailing in some quarters that it is disunited and weak. It is reckoned by tlie best authorities that the vote of Maine is a fair test of the average judgment of the country. If our vote shows republican gains next Monday, it will he a sign that the party will come successfully through the fall elections, keeping its strength in Congress undimin ished, and warning the Ku-Klux that they must desist from their bloody work. Upon the legislature to be chosen de pends the election of a United States .Sen ator next winter. See that the candidates for representatives yet to be nominated are true republicans, and then give the ticket the united strength to which it is entitled. The campaign lias been quiet, anil there fore there is the greater necessity for work from this time until election in order to poll a full vote. Bring every republican to the polls. Vote the whole ticket. See that it is correct before you cast it. Look out for split tickets. Watch the ballot box on the day of election. Be deceived by none of the lies and inventions of the enemy, and roll up as large a majority in every city and town as possible. liepublicans of Maine, be true to your selves and the importa interests depend ing upon you in the election next Mon day The country looks to you for a de cisive victor}-. STATE ECONOMY. Although the war debt has increased taxation in the State, the management of our State affairs will bear comparison with their management at any period since the State was formed. The growth of our State institutions for charity, humanity and education lias nearly all taken place since the republican party came into power. The Hospital for the Insane, though commenced beiore the republican party, has been much enlarged and more fully occupied since the State has been in re publican hands. The Reform School, Ag ricultural College, Normal Schools, have all been established since that period. An Industrial School forCirls is now build ing. Formerly there was no educational department in the State, and the State raised no money to support schools. Now the State has an educational department, supports Teachers’ Institutes, and raises money by tax for the support of the com mon schools. But after deducting what the State pays for interest and reduction of the principal of the war debt, and what it pays for the support of education, our expenditures are more economical than in democratic times. The State tux in 1 HAG was one and three-fourth's mills on the valuation in 1871! the tax was five and a half mills on the valuation, but of this four mills on the dollar of valuation went to pay the interest and reduce the principal of the war debt and for educational pur poses. leaving the tax for other purposes only one and a half mills against one and three fourths in 1850. Recollect that there was no war debt in 1850, and at that time the State raised nothing by tax for schools. This shows that for the ordinary expendi tures common to the government at both periods, 185G and 1*75, the expenditures in the latter period were less in propor tion to the valuation than in the former year. As mi example of democratic manage ment, let ns look at the State Prison. There was a loud call last winter for an investigation into the affairs of this insti tution, against which charges of gross cor ruption, fraud and extravagance were al leged. An Investigation was made by an able committee, of which a democrat was chairman, the result of which was to con vince the legislature without distinction of party that the Prison was ably and honest ly conducted. In the course of the inves tigation a comparison was made of finan cial results in the ten years that the Prison had been under Warden Rice, and the ten years immediately preceding his assuming ilia Wardenship, while the Prison was conducted on the old democratic system. The following were the facts brought to light; Cost of tlie Prison to the State from 1863 to 1803 $83,671 Paid to the State by the Prison from 1803 to 1873 322.249 Difference in lavor of pres ent management as com pared with the democratic system. S105 920 In plain language the Prison drew from the State Treasury the first ten years $83, 671, for which the people were taxed; while for the last ten years it paid into the Treasury $22,249. A portion of the time the first ten years the Prison was in repub ean hands, but it required time to get rid of the old system of management and i abuses fastened upon the institution by the democrats, and the reform was not com-1 pleted until the present Warden was placed in charge. Were we to go back 1 another period of ten years, from 1813 to 1863, we should find the evidence in lavor I of republican economy greater still. A TRIP TO THE AROOSTOOK.

Claremont Commandery Knights lemplar of Rockland, passed through the city in yes terday afternoon's train, on their way to Skowhegan, where they are to he entertained by Do Molay Commandery. They were greeted at the depot by several Sir Knights of Trinity Commandery. Mist llanscom, a first class artist, whose work will speak for itself, is to open a studio at Weeks’ Hall in this city, on Tuesday af ternoon next. It will be remembered that during the summer, specimens of her work were shown at Pierce's Periodical store, and met with general commendation. Two curiosities brought into this r fflee yes terday—two apples plucked from a tree in the lot of that veteran gardener, Mr. John Mar tin, which are closely united, in thu style of the Siamese twins j and apple blossoms and the ripo fruit growing on one ami the same twig, presented by Mr. J. N. Wade. D. W. Sawyer of Boothbay takes great pride in the collection of curiosities of various kinds. He lias recently secured the shackles with which John Brown w as bound the night before he was hung. They were brouglit to Boothbay by Rev. Mr. Atwood, who had them of an old negress at Harper's Ferry. We see that another and probably the last excursion of the barge ■‘Yosetnitc,” is adver tised to take place on Friday next. The barge will go to Boothbay harbor. A fine brass band will accompany the party. It is de signed to make this excursion as enjoyable as any which have preceded it. The Augusta and Uallowell passengers will take the train that leaves Augusta at 7 :30 and will be re turned by special train from Gardiner im mediately on the arrival of the barge. The barge will be towed on this occasion by the very fast tug “Knickerbocker” which was built last year at an expense of §10,000. A correspondent writing .from Bowdoin ham, says that the young and promising stallion Dreadnaught received the first grand premium over all stallions at the recent New England Fair, and Vermont Abdhalla 2d, who showed great speed, has trotted a trial private without skip or break in 2:23 and is entered in the great stallion race at Mystic park New York, Sept. 13th. Dreadnaught was turned a quarter of a mile in 30 seconds by two of the committee, Mr. Hayes of Boston and Kimball of Dover, and this was done to road wagon. The first time the committee marked they all marked first for Dreadnaught, this famous son of old Fcarnaught. Col.

Bell and Dillingham— despaired of his recovery. But his friends and relations rejoice that the symptoms of his disease are for the better, although he is still in a very critical condition, dependent now in a great measure upon quietness and good nursing. Dr. Williams’ friends all, up and down the Kennebec, and the Homoeopathic profession of which he is a leading member, will hail the announcement of any hopes of his recovery with joy and relief. Having been in constant service during his residence at Gardiner for several years, and not pos sessing a very robust constitution, his recov. ery must be slow. Osi r. a Week.

After a fine din ner, which the visitor, partook of with the seminary students, the Professor announced that si at? had been provided for the young ladies upon tlie ball grounds, and stated tliai those who might desire to witness the game Could do so, and the consi quence was that an array of beauty such as is rarely seen upon a hall ground, greeted the boys when they ap pear! d upon the field; and no cluts ever had such impartial judges as these young ladies appeared to be tor their applause was never confined to one club, but was generously ex tended to both. The game was called very soon after din ner, and the Kennebec's having won the toss, si nt the Pine Tree's to the bat, and were un able to retire the third man until one had reached the home plate. On (he Kennebec side, by some errors ol their opponents and some heavy Jiatting, they succeeded in scoring seven before tlie last man was out. Both sides were retired for blanks in the second inning, but in tlie third ihc Hallowcll buys scored four, and were again lucky enough to “choke” their opponents. At (his point the Seminary boys met with a severe loss, as Cottrell, their plucky little catcher, was struck with tlie ball and bat severely in the face, which so disabled him that he was retired from the game, Lombard being substituted in his place, and a general change about in their field was the conse quence. The game throughout was distinguished by fine fielding displays, the Kennebec's fortu nately getting the "hang "of Patterson’s pitch ing, and by their safe and heavy batting, suc ceeded in winning the game.

At the regular meeting of the city council on Monday evening the usual routine business was attended to, but nothing of special inter est to the public excepting the passage of au order for the establishment of a street gas light on the northwest corner of Second and Union streets. Another order was passed concerning keeping the streets in safe condi tion, and providing for drawing funds from I any unexpended appropriation for that im- j portant purpose, the regular appropriation having been nearly exhausted.

The great Temperance Campmeeting commenced here to-day at 3 o'clock this afterno?n. Tho weather is fine and there is a fair attendance for the opening. Targe delegations arrived from tho Gardi ner club, David Potter president, Frycburg club, Dr. Fowles president, Augusta club, Dr. Brickett president, Brunswick club, postmaster Crawford president, and the Port land club, Capt. Cyrus Sturtevant president. Among the distinguished temperance men present were Gov. Dingley, J. Horace Kent of Portsmouth, president of the New Eng land Reform Association, Francis Murphy, president of the Maine State Reform Clubs, J- Colon ot Boston, Henry Wordsworth of Providence, Hon. J. Gallagher of New Haven and Horace Hildreth of Natick, Miss Emma Willard, president of Womad’a Temperance Association in Chicago, Mrs. I. M. Denman, president of New Jersey Woman's Temper ance Association, Mrs. Mary C. Johnson, president of Brooklyn Woman's Temperance yssociation, Mrs. Mary E. Hart, secretary of the same, Mrs. Moore of New York, Messrs. H. W. Adams, editor of the Christian at work, G. W. Mooney of Brooklyn, E. E. Johnson of Brooklyn. Rev. W. H. Boole, and Miss Oliver, the Ohio temperance orator, will arrive to-day. J. Horace Kent, President, called the meet ing to order, stating that the meeting was held conformaiory with a suggestion made by president Murphy of the Maine club at the annual meeting of the New ICngland club in Providence, August 1st, for the purpose of a week’s interchange of views on the subject of temperance. He then called upon the Rov. I. Luce to lead in prayer, after which a hymn was sung. A committee was appointed; Gov. Dingiey was then introduced. He wel comed the representatives to Maine, spoke of the evils of intoxicating liquors, causing suf fering to th.e Anglo-Saxon race, especially to the Yankee branch. He thought the progress hitherto made in suppressing it should serve to encourage to renewed efforts to advance the cause. It is less than seventy-five years since the first pledge was signed, only sixty six years since the first temperance society was organizad, only fifty since the subject was generally and seriously considered, onlv forty since the first national temperance con vention was held, only twenty-three since the first Maine Law was enacted, so that practi cally the movement is but forty years old, and its success in that time has been truly marvelouss. lie said that halt a century ago drinking habits were almost universal, the sale of liq uors as unrestrained as necssaries of life, and drunkenness so common as not to cause remark To-day drinking has ceased to be fashionable, tippling shops are prohibited, and outside of a few cities rarely encountered. Drunkenness is rare in rural districts which comprise three-fourths of the State, and a large portion of the people are total abstain ers. That this progress is real, that secret drinking has not simply taken the place of open drinkins, is shown by the fact that an encampment of nearly .a thousand volunteers of State militia has been held within a few days near one of our largest cities for four days, and though visited by thousands, less than a dozen cases of intoxiertion have arisen in or near the grounds. He spoke at length of the work necessary to be done, saying that temperance work will always be needed just as Christian work is; that it must vary with the different states and different circum stances. Let all work be encouraged, wheth er through the church, the reform club, the crusaders, open or secret organizations. Gov. Dingley was followed by Messrs. Os good, Camp Meeting John Allen, Francis Murphy, Capt. Sturdivant, Rev. Dr. Carru thers, Ex-Gov. l’erham, and Rev. I. Luce, in short and spicy speeches, interspered with singing, then a season of prayer, aud closed with benediction. A meeting was then held to make up a pro gramme for the remainder of the session. This evening a meeting is being held in the Biddeford tent, for prayer and pledges, nnd for any general business which may arise. Speaking to-morrow will be by Mr. John son, Mrs. Hart, Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. T. R. Lawrence of Boston, Ex Gov. I’erham, Rev. Dr. Nichols ot Biddeford, J. 1C. Osgood of Gardiner, and Rev. Mr. Luce.

A correspondent of the l’ress at Holster's Mills writes that Clarence Skillings of that village was accidently shot and instantly kill ed on Saturday. He and a young man nam ed Mahlon Chute, left their homes to go to Norway in an open wagon together, taking with them a loaded gun. When about one and a half miles trom Norway they saw in a pond beside the road a muskrat, and Clarence sprang out of tile wagon and hurriedly took hold of the gun at the muzzle dragging it along the bottom of the wagon, when the hammer struck the crossbar with sufficient force to explode the cap. The muzzle was nearly opposite his heart and when the dis-1 charge took place young Skillings placed Ins hand upon the wound and fell lifeless. Ilia 1 body was conveyed home, where was his1 mother almost distracted with giief.

I faifir Juniukf fmtntal A Welsh Calvinislie minister, well known in his day as “Sammy Ilree/e. ”jwas called upon to preach, amongst others, at one of those periodical gatherings popular amongst the Welsh, which are, as it were feasts of sermons—two. three, or even four preachers succeeding each other in the pulpit—perhaps in Welsh or English alternately. The young man who imme diately preceded Sammy had taken his text, “lie that believeth not shall be dammed,” but “begged pardon" of bis audience for the strong language he was tuing. Sammy got up after him and read the same text.—“liretheren,” he said in his honest Welsh-English, “Onr young friend has been ferry foine, and I am not polite; but I will preach a little bit of gos pel to you, ‘He that believeth not shall be t irmued,’ and I begs no pardons.” An umailing remedy prepared iroin the best known (roots and herbs in the world.
