Some years ago the writer was favored with the perusal of a genuine autograph letter, written by the revered Daniel Webster to his son Edward ahont the time the latter eommeneed his studies at Phil lips Exeter Academy. The following is a verbatim copy of the letter: Washington, June 23,1834. My Peak Sox Fletcher wrote me from Exeter, the next day after your arrival, and informed me that you had been so fortunate ns to be received at Col. Chad wick’s, and was commencing your studies. I am glad you are so well situated, and trust you will make progress in your studies. You are at a most important pe riod of life, my dear son, soon growing up to be a young man, and a boy no long er, and I feel great anxiety for your suc cess and happiness. I beseech you to be attentive to your duties, and to fblfill every obligation with cheerfulness and punctuality. Above all remember your moral ami rrligious concerns. Be constant at church and prayer, and every other ap pointment for worship. There can be no solid character and no true happiness which are not founded on a sense of relig ions duty. Avoid all evil company, and every temptation, and consider that you have now left your father’s house, and gone forth to improve your own character, and prepare your own mind for the part vou arc are to lead in life. All that can lie done for you by others will amount to nothing, unless you do much for yourself. Cherish all the good counsel which your mother used to give you, and let those of us who are yet alive have the pleasure of seeing you come forward as one who gives promise of virtue, usefulness, and distinc tion. I fervently commend you to the blessing of our Heavenly Father. Congress rises, as we expect, one week from this day. I believe I shall go direct ly home. Your mother and Julia, I sup pose will he in Boston before me. We shall all go to Marshfield, where you will ot course join us when your vacation comes. I happen to have two small Mass, bills, they do not go here, and I inclose them to you, to he used if you should have occa sion. to buy a book, or spend a dollar for any other article. i wish you to make my best respects to Hr. Abbott, [the Principal of the academy] and remember me to Cel. and Mrs. Chacf wick and their family. If I do not hear from you sooner, I shall expect to find a letter from you when I reach Boston. Your affectionate father, DANIEL WEBSTER. hltWARD EBSTKR. P. S. Since writing this, I have rec’d y’r letter, and am very glad to hear from you. (live my love to your friend Uphuu. I remember the great tree, and Iknow ex actly where your room is. ('harles sends his love. The original of this characteristic letter was, and doubtless still is, in the posses sion of Mr. (ieorge S. Shute, of Rxeter, and its full text has never before been in print, a few extracts only having been published in the Hoston Traveller some 10 or more years ago. The friend Upharn was George T. I'pham, of Portsmouth, who entered the academy in the same year with Edward Webster—18:14. Daniel Webster entered the academy from Salis bury in lT'.Hi, at the age of 14, and to the thorough practical education he there re ceived is doubtless due in a great measure the distinction to which he attained in later years.

A PROOIiAMATION £XEC'1'T1VE Col N( II. I HAMBW^ Aioista, November 17, 1#79. S By the advice of the Executive Council, and l» compliance with eMablij'hed usage, 1 hereby appoint THURSDAY, the 27th Inst., to be observed by the people of thU State a* a 0.000; while the managers of the Exchange found the easiest way to raise goOO.tiOO for the purehnse of adjoining prop erty ami the improvement of its buildings to be to create forty new seats. For several days the market has been te verish aid unsettled. Speculation paused, and seemed doubting which way to turn. On Tuesday the market abounded in wide fluctu ations, in sudden falls and quick rallies. Fit der the pressure ta realize profits prices be came weak; with orders to buy from those eager to make another turn they again be came strong. Yesterday the tendency to low er prices became more strongly marked, and during the morning hour the Stock Exchange became the scene of wild excitement. Large speculators who had been prominent in stim ulating the former advance appenred to be at raved on the “bear” side. Many who had beeen thought to be extensive hold ers of general securities were found yesterday to be entirely out of the market. With one or two exceptions the strong est speculators in stocks arc believed to have sold at the recent high prices. Money, which hail been comparatively easy for a week, became dearer, and borrowers were compelled to pay in several cases a small commission. The arrivals of specie from Europe, which have furnished fuel to the speculation, appeared to have fallen off. After the receipt on Saturday of 6255,000 nothing had been received. The arrival yos terday of 61,657,500 by the Algeria, and of 6*00,000 by the Gellert. was announced too late in the day to affect the market. Every thing united, apparently, to depress prices, and speculators hurried to seek shelter from the storm which seemed about to burst. The excitement on the Exchange became intense. A decline in prices led only to a greater de sire to sell at any price that could be ob tained. Free sales resulted in still greater depression. A panic seemed imminent. As on Tuesday, the opening prices were generally the highest of the day. The de cline was not confined to merely speculative stocks; the soundest dividend-paving securi ties felt sensibly the force of the fall. Toward the close of business yesterday the decline was followed by a sharp rally, and part of the loss was recovered. This added greatly to the excitement of the day, and the probable course of the market to-duy was the subject of eager and anxious conversation among brokers and speculators long after tin1 Exchange was closed. The streets near the Exchange were filled w ith groups of excited men and Delmnnico’a was crowded with well known operators and brokers. Opinions varied with the interests the speculators hud in the future course of the murket. Many asserted that the leng-looked-far break in prices had come, while others were confident tlint the final rally was indicative of renewed buoyancy to day. Great interest was expressed by til in the opening of to-day's market. A powerful ef fort hud been made, it was said, to rally prices at the close. The Volunteer Soldiers. Cot.. Robert G. Inoeksou.'s Speech Before the Society of the Army ok the Ten KK8HK.E. Following is the response of Col. Robert G. Ingersoll at the dinner of the Army of the Tennessee, in Chieago, on Thursday last, in rcaponse to the toast: “The Volunteer Sol diers of the I'nton Army, whose valor und patriotism saved to the world a ‘Government of the people, by the people, and for the peo ple.’ “When slavery, in the savagery of the lash, and the barbarism of the chain, and the in sanity of secession, [applause,] confronted the civilization of our country, the question, ‘Will the great Republic defend itself!’ trem bled upon the lips of every lover of mankind. The grand North, filled with intelligence and wealth, the products of labor, marshaled her hosts and asked only for a leader. From the people a man, silent, thoughtfully poised, and calm, stepped forward, and, with the lips of victory, voiced the Nation’s first and last demand—unconditional and immediate sur render. [Applause.] From that moment the end was known. That utterance was the first real declaration of real war. and in ac cordance w ith the dramatic w riters of mighty events, tlie soldier who made it received the final sword of rebellion. [Loud applause.] “The soldiers of the lit public were not seekers for vulgar glory, neither were they animated liy the hope of plunder or love of cruel conquest. No no, never. They fought to defend the homestead of liberty, that their children might have peace. [Ap plause.] They were the defenders of human ity. the destroyers of prejudice, the breakers of chains, and, in the name of the future, slew the monster of their time. They finish ed what the soldiers of the Revolution com menced. They have relit the torch that fell from their august hands, and tilted the world again with liaht. They blotted out from our statute-books the laws passed by hypocrites at the instigation of robbers, [loud applause.] They made it possible for judges to be just, for statesmen to be humane, and for politicians to be honest. They broke the shackles from the limbs of slaves, from the souls of masters, and from the Northern brain. They kept our country on the map of the world and our flag in heaven. They rolled the stone from the sepulchre of prog ress and found tlierin two angels clad in shin ing garments—nationality and liberty. [Loud applause.] “The soldiers were tlie* saviors of the Re public; they were the liberators of men. In writing the Proclamation of Emancipation. Lincoln, greatest of our mighty dead, [ap plause.] whose memory is as gentle as a sum mer air when reapers sing amid gathered sheaves, copied with the pen what the grand hands of brave comrades had written with their swords. Grander than the Greek, no bler than the Roman, the soldiers of the Re public, with patriotism as careless as the air, fought for the rights of others, for the nobili ty of labor, and battled that a mother might own her child, [loud and prolonged applause.] that arrogant idleness should not sear the hack of patient toil, [cheers,] and that our eountrv should not be a many-headed monster made of warring States, but a nation, sover eign. grand, and free. Blood was water, money was leaves, and life was only common air. until one flag floated over one Republic, without a master and without a slave. [Pro longed applause and ringing cheers.] And then was asked the question. W ill a tree peo ple voluntarily tax themselves to pay a na tion's deht? The soldiers went home to their waiting wives, to their glad children, and to the girls they loved. They went hack to the fields, the shops, the mines. They had not been demoralized. They had been ennobled. Mocking at reverses, laughing at poverty, they madeja friend of toil. They said ‘IVe saved the nation’s life, and what is life with out honor! [Loud applause.] They worked ami wrought with all of labor's royal sons, that every pledge the nation made might he redeemed. [Cheers.] And their great lead er, having put n shining band of friendship, a girdle of clasped and loving hands around the globe, came home to find, and finds, that every promise made in war has now the ring and gleam of gold. [Enthusiastic cheers. “There is another question still. Will all the wouads of war Ve healed? I answer, yes. [A voice, ‘Good.’] The Southern people must submit. [A voice, ‘Thank God.’ 1 Not to the dictation of the North, but to a nation’s will and the verdict of mankind. [Groat ap plause.] They were wrong, nnd the time will come when they will say that the-people are the victors who have been vanquished by the right. Freedom conquered them, and freedom will cultivate their fields, will edu cate their children,will weave robes of wealth, w ill execute the laws, and fill their land with happy homes. [Frantic applause.] The sol diers of the I’nion saved the South as well as the North. [More applause.] They gave us a nation. [A voice, ‘With a big N.'] They gave us liberty here, and their grand victories have made tyranny the world over as inse cure as snow upon the lips of volcanoes. “And now let us drink to the Volunteers, to those who sleep in unknown and sunken graves, whose names are known only to the hearts they loved and left, of those who oft in happy dreams can see the footsteps of return. Let us drink to those who died where lifeless famine mocked at want. Let us drink to the maimed, whose sears give modesty a tongue. Let us drink to those who dared and gave to chance the care and keeping of their lives. Let ns drink to all the living and to nil the dead—to Sherman, and to Sheridan, and to Grant, the laureled soldiers of this world [ringing and lasting applause.] and last to Lincoln, whose loving life, like a how of peace, spans and arches all the clouds of war.” General News. A first-class horse exchange is to be organ ized in New York. The Brooklyn folks are starving diphtheria to death by robbing it of its nourishment, foul drains and sewers. In Quebec, on Monday, several large blocks of rock fell from a cliff into the street at the spot where Gen. Montgomery fell. John O’Glec, of New York, went into a Boston saloon on Monday, and requested to he served with a dinner as quickly as possible as he had only ten minutes to live. After partaking of the meal. he drew a revolver and shot himself, probably fatally. A water spaniel recently followed his mas ter into a machine shop in l'ulaski, N. Y., and while wagging his tail briskly got too close to an oily, sticky shaft, which was mak ing 130 revolutions per minute. The hairs were long and were wrapped once around the shaft before the dog got ready to wag his tail the other wav. Immediately there was yelp ing. The shaft made H71-2 revolutions in 13 seconds, and the dog likewise, before his mas ter discovered bis predicament and shut the gate. After his adventure the spaniel was very much out of breath, hut was not serious ly hurt. A number of medical students in Indianap olis recently undertook to make a victim of a professional “resurrectionist.” They told him that they hail secured a body and asked him to rernore it from its hiding place. The supposed corpse in the tiag was a live medical student. The students pointed out the spot where the bag was concealed, and the professional threw the hag over his shoulder and set out for the college. The corpse, with no knowledge of his whereabouts, straight ened out just as his bearer was crossing the canal. With rare presence of mind the in-' tended victim of the joke heaved his burden over the bridge into the water and calmly walked on. Had not the companions of the unfortunate fellow rushed to his rescue there would have been a “sure enough” corpse in the party. There is a strong movement in favor of holding the next Ucpublican National Con vention at Saratoga. The increase iu receipts of the Grand Trunk railway last week,' on freight traffic alone, was $23,000 over the corresponding week of last vear. Ex-Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, says that State is just as alive as it can be, anil full of prosperity, uiul that the iron men cannot be gin to fili their orders. Senator Windnm says Minnesota is siiaring in the general prosperity and increasing in population, althongli this year's crops are less than those of a year ago. The Court in New Jersey decides that a man lias a right to interment in his own lot in a Catholic cemetery, notwithstanding his contumacy in dying a Free Mason. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided that the law is unconstitutional under which eight thousand trade-marks have been registered at the Patent Office. The demand for wool lias been larger than ever, und the sales are large. One house sold 1.000.000 pounds, and two others sold 760,000 pounds each. There has been an ad vance of about 3 cents during the week. The democratic party in Maine seems to lie bent in precisely the same direction as the supporters of Governor Kent were said to be. It is probably just as well for the republican party that they should go ahead.— Tribune. Henry S. Howe, Esq. of the Pocassett Mill Full lliver, will retire Jan. 1st. It is report ed that he Ims accepted an offer of the super intendeney of the Laconia and Pepperell mills of Hiddcford. Maine, at a salary of $10,* 000 a year, and will reside at the mills. Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll. who nominat ed Blaine in the last republican National Con vention, lias told him mind to the Indianapo lis Journal. He Is still for lllaine. “First of all. lllaine is certainly a competent man of affairs—a man who knows what to do at the time; and then he has acted in such a eliivalrie way ever since the convention at Cincinnati that those who opposed him most bitterly how have for him nothing but admir ation.” Business Nolen. The beet crop in France is a failure, and, in cousequencc, sugar is advancing in price. The Southern rice crop promises to be ten |ier cent, larger this y ear than it was one year ago. About a dozen Russian cotton manufactur ers have lately gone to Egypt to buy raw ma terial and to hire all the largest plantations 'on lk« balk* of the Nile. Fashion Halva. The New York Mail suggests that ladies over five and twenty years of agewhowiar men's Derby liats on the streets have no one but themselves to hlame if they are insulted. The bat is only suitable for young girls. In the new sealskin steqnes the front is double-breasted, and is fastened by strips of seal, held bv loops; the hack, which is with out centre seam, is shaped more to tho figure, and a broad reverse collar clasps the throat. It is reported that a retail millinery house in New York is offering Derby hats at ten cents apiece, to colored persons only, hoping thereby to render this style of hat unpopular with the better class, us a Derby requires little or n» trimming. The new changeable velvets nre used f r rich bonnets in quaint contrasts of color, trimmed with a scarf of cnshmere-flgnr d silk in which are many gold threads; others are trimmed with plush-striped ribbons that change in different lights to show contrasting colors. Feather tnrhans are in favor nt the present time. A soft crown of silk, velvet or of any material that matches the costume i« sur rounded by any of the handsome breasts or wings that are worn this winter. More ex pensive turbans have the large flat crown covered with jet. For dress bonnets white brocaded satin with sometimes embossed velvet figures is used for the crown, while the brim will he plain velvet of a contrasting color. The softest curled ostrich plumes resembling willow feathers are used on these, also the heads of birds with closed eyes as if asleep. The novelty for the head is the toque, which is really a Imt, but is worn as a bonnet, with strings or without, according to fancy. The crown is small and quite round, and the brim is enlarged in a curve all araund it just like a bowl, somewhat in theshapeof the helmet hats worn hy gentlemen. It is very handsome when made with a satin crown, and the brim covered with plush with deep pile like fur, or else real seal-skin, beaver, or otter is used. Contrasts of color am) picturesque csrsages copied from old paintings are other features of imported evening dresses. Worth com bines lavender satin with yellow brocade in a very rieli dress, while a white satin waist and train have the flat front breadths of silver brocade strewn with roses; the waist has sharp points front and hack, with nrnior puffs at the top of the sleeves. Other sleeves are gathered at the elbows, and trimmed there with rosettes. Large square table mats and tidies ef silk plush in bronze, green, 1‘ompeiian and pale blue sections are the newest things in fash ionable taney work. They are ornamented along the seams and edges with feather and brier stitching in bright contrasting colors of embroidery silk, and with panels or bands of ecru-colored silk canvas worked in quaint ilesigns with snmple stitches. The edges have also a fringe of tassels of embroidery silk matching the colors of the embroideries on the mat. Pcvsonal. Col. John Hay, President Lincoln's private secretary anil constant companion, takes his place as Assistant Secretary of State to-day. Miss Josephine Meeker, daughter of the murdered Indian Agent, will become a clerk at Washington, and her sisty a corre spondent as broad-shouldered, gray-liaired, clean-shaven, muscular and fresh in color. He is exceedingly athletic, being famous in Wilmington as a pedestrian and a boxer. His manners are frank and kindly, and his ways of speech quick and earnest. Tsulag spas a Bed ef Agony, Tortured in every joint with Inflammatory rheuma tism, It a prospect which may become a melancholy fad if the twinges of the dread disorder are not checked at the outset. Persons of a rheumatic ten deucy find Hostetler's Stomach Killers a useful rem edy, nor do they encounter the risk In using ‘it they do from resorting to that active poison Colchicum, w hich Is often employed to arreot the malady. The use ol llie Hitters is equally as effective in its results, and Is attended with no risk. There Is ample teatl-' inony to prove that the medltlne possesses blood de purating qualities slf no common order, besides those of a tonic and general alterative. It stimulates the action of the kidneys and promotes the removal from the system of impurities which develop disease, and are fraught with serion, danger. Fever and ague, dyspepsia, debility, nervousness, constipation, Ac., are remedied by It. I strongly recommend the use of Fellows’ Compound Syrup of Hypophosphites to all who suffer in any way from disease or weak ness of the Lungs, Bronchial Tubes, or gen eral Debility. J. H. W.

The meeting of the Reform club, Sunday afternoon, was one of unuiual interest. Quite a number of the reformed mtn spoke at the beginning of the meeting, after which, Hon. Joshua Nye gave some verv clear and profitable instructions relative to the human stomach, as represented on Dr. Sewell's charts, of which the speaker had eight, show ing the effect of alcohol in various stages from the moderate drinker to the victim of delirium tremens. Mr. Nye explained four of these charts Sunday, using the words ef ])r. Sewell. Next Sunday he will take the remaining four. This is a matter that ought to interest every one. _ _ _ Quite a number of the members .of the Au gusta Reform Club met at their hall on Sat urday evening, and from there proceeded to the home of Mrs. Ueorgie Rideout, on the east side of the river.

Immediately after the promulgation of this order Messrs. Baker Baker, counsel for Senators ami Representatives elect, addressed the following letter to Chief Justice Appleton Acocsta. Me., Nov. 22, 18711. Hon. .John Appleton, Chief Jutttce Supreme Court of Maine: Since you issued notices on the petitions for mundamus to show cause why Senators and Representatihes elect should not be al lowed to examine the official returns of their elections, and since the Associate Justices of the court have unanimously consented to meet with you at Augusta on Tuesday next, to hear those petitions, we are informed that the Governor and Council have passed the enclosed order. It is the undeninble right of our clients under the laws of the State to examine the election returns to-day, us it has been every day since the Governor and Council deelaretl hv formal order that the returns were open, and then persistently refused to exhibit them. Our cli ents will moreover insist, at the proper time that the twenty days assured them by law for upplieation for correction of returns, shall not begin to run against them until the re turns nre actually and practically open to their examination. But assuming that the enclosed order of the council thus publicly issued will be carried out in good faith by affording our clients full opportunity to examine the rctuins on and af ter Dec. 1st, we do not deem it our duty to press a hearing on the petitions on the day or dered. hut will make them returnable at the December term of your court for the county of Oxford, which begins Tuesday, December 2d, 1871*, a« that is the earliest term of the court that will he in session in the State, and respectfully ask a new order of notice, re turnable accordingly.

Wlvaiirt Debt. An informal meeting of the bondholder* of the town of Wiscasset, was held at 275 Washington. St., Boston, Thursday. The call for the meeting was addressed to all the town's bondholders, but the most of those who were present are residents of Boston and vicinity. The financial condition «f the town is a« follows The bonded debt amounts to **3fi,*00, and'Rs nyw arranged is payable as follows: $10,250 each year from 1880 to 1884, inclusive: $14,250 in 1885; $10,250 each year from 1880 to 1888, inclusive; $15,250 in 1880; $4250 in 1800; *30,050 in 1891; $11,550 in 1892; *4250 each year from 1803 to 1899 inclusive; $43,500 in 1902. Beside* the above, there is a floating debt consistingof notes overdue, unpaid orders, anil miscellaneous items, amounting to 825.841.51 making the total debt *201.841.51. The proposition of the town, to pav 50 cents on 81—payment to be made in municipal bond* of the town in lieu of the bonds now held, the bonds to pay 4 per cent, interest, and the interest to be paid annually or semi-annually —was discussed at the meeting and con sidered at considerable length, and the pre vailing sentiment seemed to be that the prop osition of the town should he accepted, anil that measures ought to be taken to insure concert of action in the matter on the part of all the creditors. Joseph Tucker, a former town treasurer of the town, wns present at the meeting, and he and another Maine party, who was present at the meeting, are to see that the official authorities pf Wiscas set also take whatever action may be neces sary on their part to bring about the prompt adjustment of the town's affairs, domination* by the liovtraor.

Indies the NUtrmruU off the Iftoaton tdobt about Hruurbrc County. (fAKhINKR. NoV. 22. Mr. Blaine's home and hopes are huried beneath the following statement of a Globe Correnpondent of the 10th Kennebec county, the home of Mr. Blaine, was, as may be imagined, not entirely exempt from the met boils employ «*d in other portions of the state. We present a part of the report from one of the men who travelled through that region shortly utter the election. Told briefly, the pi..in story is as follows; It. A. (Goodwill of Piitstou was greenback candidate Ibr councillor, lie is authority for the statement ihut L. M. (joodspeed, a tiial justice, induced Henry •I. o. Jackman, a youth of nineteen, to register anil vote. This Jackman did, but subsequently, fearing trouble, be left tow n. Jackman bad a brother-in-law by the name of ray,ul»o of the age of nineteen, sim ilar inducements were tried to obtain Ids vote, but they failed. Kdgur James of Pittston, a greenback er, was arrested for stealing a watch and fined to the amount of §23, including costs. Some friends of his and members of the greenback party were asked to pav Ids line, but they declined. However, the tine was paid in some mysterious wav, and lie got out of ids trouble and voted the republican ticket. Mr. J. II. Crowell ol Pittston is said to have been threatened with a foreclosure of a mortgage upon bis place if he did not vote the republican ticket. This fact is stated by T. Fred Could ol North Pittston, who stood by and heard the conversation. Wesley Harden of the "same town declares that he wa* offered money for Ids vote by the republicans, ami Lewis II. Dudley is said to nav e actually received §2.h fur Ids from a man w hose name is given by responsible parties. Hiram Coy of Hardiner, i- ready to swear that a republican offered him §15 to vote us be wanted him to. Howard Norton wu« offered a toa of hay and §4, aud Ids brother, Sum Norton, was offered §10 ami a situation at the state house for Ids ballot. Fred Norton iiad an equally magnanimous proposal made him of $15. John Polland, William Hanson, Alexander Hanson and n Mr. Bluke were actually paid §5 each to stay aw u\ from the polls altogether. A man by the name of ilall was threatened that he would be turned off the place which be hired If he did not vote the republican ticket. It Is related that Henry Tyler received §10 from one man aud §5 from unot her as an incentive to vote the republican ticket; and the stalwart papers may now have a chance to howl over the fact that Tyler went hack on both of them ami voted the greenback ticket. A debt of a man named Paige, In south China, was cunrcllcd in consideration of one republican vote, and Ids sou boasts freely of bow easily the debt was discharged. In China "two men named Keller and Farris were also paid §2 each to absent themselves from the (Mills. Joseph (iurney has declared, and will nckmiMledge to uny one, that lie was offered §4 if he would not vote ut all, and he also says that another man offered him half an acre of land if he would vote with the corrupt crowd of radicals, but he refused. Much more remains to be recorded of this county which will appear In due season. The truth was ascertained by your corres pondent to be as follows I he Jackman here spoken of, represented to Mr. (ioodspeed that he was a legal voter, and, when asked, joined the Republican club; further than this Mr. G-hail nothing to do with him. This simple statement supported by R. A. Goodwin's word—mentioned above as the authority for the whole statement— that lie did not tell the Globe reporter that Goodspccd induced Jackman to vote, should be sufficient. Here it might be well to say that Mr. (ioodspeed. in company with the writer, visited Mr. Goodwin, and showing him the article quoted from the Globe, asked him if he was correctly reported as the au thority for the statements. At first he denied that it was a fair representation of w hat he said but later stated that lie and Mr. Dunton, the greenback candidate for representative, were interviewed shortly after the election, but only told the stories that were currently reported on the street. “I," he said, ‘‘stated nothing ns a fact, excepting that James a»kcd me to help him pay his tine." To the ques tion whether James promised to vote the greenback ticket, provided he would pay the tine, Goodwin answered “Xo.” But I thought that was what he wanted, since I wasn't be lialdcn to him in any way. Xow ns regards this James, whose tine was so mysteriously paid, the facts are these His trial was held before Judge Palmer of Gardiner, and not before (ioodspeed. as the article would lead the reader to suppose. Judge Palmer gave the prisoner his liberty, but placed in the hands of City Marshal Berry a mittamns to collect the fine. Mr. Berry says he threat ened to arrest James if he did not pay, and should have done so had not Capt. I.inseott stood surety for the criminal. The fine has not yet been paid, and w\ll not be until the Capt. returns. Mr. (ioodspeed doe* hold a mortgage on J. II. Crowell's farm, but the affidavits of which I give you a copy will dis prove the Globe’s statements of any threats used by the mortgagee: Affidavit of A. II. Crotvell. To whom it may concern I, Janies H. Crowell of Pittston, in the county of Kenne bec, State of Maine, do declare on oath to the following, viz: that no person or persons at tempted to influence or induce me, directly or indirectly, by bribery, menace, willful false hood, or any other corrupt means, to disturb or hinder me in the free exercise of the right of suffrage at (lie election held in Pittston, in said County of Kennvbcc, on the eighth of September, A. 1). 1X79, and I further declare on oath, that I.. IV. Good-peed, Trial Justice of Pittston, in said county, did not threaten in any way whatever, to foreclose mi a mort gage that ^c holds on my property if I did not vote the republican ticket at said election. (Signed,) J. H. Crowell. Kennebec ss. Pittston, Xov. 21, 1X79. Personally appeared the above named Janies H. Crowell, and made oath to the above by him subscribed, to be the truth, before me, A. C. Clark, Justice of the Peace. _ S Affidavit of Fred B. Mould. To whom it mny concern I, F. B. Gould, of l’ittston, in County,of Kennebec and State of Maine, declare on Bath us follows t That I never heard any one. especially L. \V. Good speed. Trial Justice of Pittston, in said conn ty, threaten Janies 11. Crowell, that if he did not vote the republican ticket at the election held in said Pittston. on the eighth day of September, A. 1). 1879, he or they would foreclose on a mortgage said Goodspeed held against said Crowell. (Signed,) F. B. Goixd. Kennebec ss. Pittston, Nov. 21, 1879. Personally appeared the above subscribed F. B. Gould, and made oath to the above statement by him subscribed to be the truth. Before me, Baiihbtt II. Cox, Justice ot the Peace. Furthermore, Crowell voted a split ticket —part of it included greenback, and part re publican candidates. “Illrani Coy of Gardiner, is ready to swear that a republican offered him 811, to vote as he wanted him to." If this is so, Hiram's mnrket value rose amazingly after the effort he made to sett his rote to a republican for f2. This is the truth, and cun he substan tiated on oath. As regards the names im mediately following Hiram's notice—Howard Norton. Sam Norton, Fred Norton, John Po land, William Hanson, Alexander Hanson and Henry Tyler—which one would suppose referred to citizens of Gardiner. Mr. Wads worth, the city clerk,will certify that no such names appear on the voting list of the city. If the sole effort of these statements was to prove the character of either Mr. Goodepeed or the Globe, they w ould be unnecessary; for any ons who is acquainted with the gentle man, would readily say, without the use of affidavits, that the accusations are inconsis tent with the man, and no one surely would require affidavits to establish the falsity of any political statement in the Globe. Its character was too well established when it was an organ for Ben Butler, uml since it hus stooped even lower, to' associate with Pills hury, who can be so obtuse as to question its morality? Yet, amidst all these broad and general statements which that paper has made, it has here and there located a few specific cases of fraud, but the prompt and emphatic manner in which these statements have been met and refuted, show the weak ness of the Pillsbury-Glohc plan. For this reason it is a pleasure to nail one more false hood of these minions, and show that the re puted author of these stories refuses to fhther them.

The treasurer, regarding the withdrawal of the U. S. treasury from the New York Clear ing House Association, said the matter never had been under consideration, hut in conse quence of the rapid change from currency to coin going on in public funds, be had thought proper to call attention to the possibility, near or remote, that the department might be compelled to make larger disbursements of silver at New York, which would necessitate a change in the rules of the Clearing House, or withdrawal from its membership. He recognizes the great advantages in that rela tion, in self collection of innumerable checks payable to and by the New York office, and in the rapid transaction afthe immense busi ness at that point, ami would he reluctant to disturb it. The question of withdrawal, how ever, will probably never nrise, as the Clear ing House will likely muke a necessary change in the rules that the government may be put to no ineonveniene in making settle ments. The Trade Mark I.aw. Since the announcement of the Supreme Court's decision adverse to the constitution ality of the National trade mark law, the Commissioners of Patents have received let ters demanding the return of fees received by the Patent office for registration of trade marks, and many other communications in quiring wlmt course to he pursued in regard to pending or future application for registry of trade marks, presented on behalf ot per sons who desire to avail themselves of the present registration system for the purpose of making a record of evidence with a view to possible future legislation on the subject, or for use in suits between residents of different states, which, in the opinion of some of his correspondents, might still be maintained un der the Supreme Court's decision. All in quiries will be answered by the following circular. Tlie Supreme Court, having adjudged the act of July 8, 1870, relating to the registra tion of trade marks, to be unconstitutional, action on pening applications will be sus pended until further instructions from appli cants. Trade marks will hereafter be regis tered, on pending or future applications, only in favor of those persons who, with fktll knowledge of the decision af the Su preme Court, shall request such registration. Fees heretofore paid in trade mark cases cannot be refunded without further legisla tion by Congress. (Report of Secretory of War. The annuel re|iort of the Secretary of War he given out to-morrow for publication 'i "n In v morning. Referring to the Ute out break, the Secretary will eipecially commend (’apt*. Payne end Dodge for tbeir gallant conduct, and will take the ground that the government •Imuld insist in ita demand for the surrender and punishment of the Indiana responsible for the Meeker massacre and the trecherous attack upon Thornburg’* com mand. The Secretary will recommend the sale and abandonment of certain military posts, and concur in (Jen. Sherman’s recom mendation that the force ot army be fixed at 25,000, exclusive of those on detached ser vice. HU argument in support of tbe recom mendation it it understood is brief though vigorous. He hat reduced the engineer’s estimates for river and harbor improvements for the next fiscal year, from about $14,000, 000 to $5,000,000, ami also made a reduction of $3,000,000 from estimates (aggregating about $10,000,000) which were submitted for all other public works under the War De partment.
