[From oor Regular Correspondent.] Letter from the Backwoods of Maine. No. 4—From Eineo to Eatahdin. Drab Press :—A living, breathing moose, with the lake before him and his own wild woods behind him for a reftige, is a far differ ent animal from the stuffed skin we see in Museums or from the stupid, sluggish brute in the Menagerie. As we approached the one re ferred to in my Ikst letter, he turned and raised his head, from the alders near which he was feeding, and gave a sharp, quick look at the canoes drawing near him. His head was lean ed a little to one side as if he desired to con firm his suspicion of our errand by catching some noise of warning. But our stillness gave him no such hint, and as we came so slowly and silently along, he seemed assured that he had no reason to be alarmed, and then he re sumed his feeding. Three or four times he raised his head to study our object, and after each survey returned to his water-grass and leaves. We had now drawn so near to him that we could watch every motion he made, and see distinctly his great mouth and nostrils, The rich brown hair was glossy from the water clinging to it after his recent plunge in the stream, and, had it not been for the unsightly hump on his back near the neck, he would have been called a beautiful creature. Strange to say he had no horns, and we thought his motions were consequently more rapid than they could have been with huge antlers on his head. But I have been told by hunters that the largest moose, with horns of the greatest size, can easily find their way through thick growth and with such rapidity that the noise of their going is like the crash of felling trees in an old forest. During the painful silence in which we dared not move our bodies in the slightest degree, or even whisper to each other our admiration of the strength and beauty we saw before us, and while we were waiting for the time at which a bullet would do its work the best, we felt the canoe turn a little to the right. Harldv had it swung round twenty de grees before we heard a low whistle from the guide and, ia an instant the moose gave a frightened look and raised his head on his long neck to its greatest height and moved it quick ly from side to side as if he was at once watch ing us and looking for some way of escape. As he stood before us he was of the height of an ordinary horse or perhaps a little lower, and of nearly the same form, with the slight excep tion of smaller legs and different hoofs. He had also a broader nose and wider nostrils, al most flaring. But in the hasty glances we had at his beauty and strength there was no time to mark with accuracy, the points of resem blance or difference, for the sigual from the guide was enough to send the sharp crack of the rifles echoing through the woods and two bullets flew into the side of the animal. Wounded but plucky yet. Good stufTin that moose; for see how he gave a quick plunge up the steep bank and passed through the alders into the woods behind. A chase for us all now, and let it be a rapid one, for there is no time to reload the rifles and one must be on his track. The crimson stain an the veratrum and the blue-joint grass was a trail easy to follow, for no hand could hare marked a path more unmistakable. And what of moose-meat Will it not be too much like telling hungry Tantalus of the delicious fruits just beyond his reach? Around our camp-fire, that night, there were many wishes that the rich viands could be •hared with the Mends at home, for we could not believe that the severe labor in the canoes gave to the moose-steak a relish which was not its own. Halfway between a tender sirloin beef-steak and roast pork, the moose-meat lias a character of itself, a peculiar grain. This grain is finer than that of beef and much coarser than that of pork, greatly resembling the venison of Eastern Maine. Our repast was none the less Inviting because it was eaten off the dull tin plates of our camp, for tin has a silver ring in the forests of pine. Who can blame us for then remembering that some where among our bulky knapsacks was a bob tie of currant wine which a Mend had given to us as a stirrup-cup not to be drunk at our parting,but in the pleasantest part of the woods. What wonder that our guides became commu nicative beyond their wont and told us hunt ing stories, each one harder to believe than the last, till one by one, we sought our blankets and slept dreaming of modern Arabian nights. The great fire at our feet burned on till morn ing, when at three we woke. It was not yet sunrise, but still the cold, ear ly dawn, when we cooked our breakfast and were again satisfied that there is nothing like moose-stsak. Our course for the day was a difficult one. On our route we should have two miles of “carrying” across “Mud Pond” portage. The louth end of this carry Is on Umbarooksus Lake, while the other is at Mud Pond, near Chamberlain. Preparing to cross this portage, our canoes were removed from the water, and the load for each one was se lected. Taking a load of considerable weight, I think a couple of firkins, one of flour and one of pork, my knapsack and several pack ages of paper for preserving plants, I set out on the carry. The guides good-naturedly ad vised me to start with less; but no, I was equal to the task. After a hundred rods of mud and water, now and then stepping into a miry place of one or two feet depth, I thought it expedi ent to leave one of the firkins among the bushes for a second load, when I should have got used to carrying. With a mnch lighter load, I stumbled along over the muddy path, till the firkin of pork became heavy enough to support our party for a couple of months, at least; and this was likewise deposited in a clump of alders. The two miles were six at the shortest computation,by the time I reached an opening. Here was the other end of the portage! No signs of water, though; and where was Mud Pond A tree at the side of the road explained all; 320 RODS. x uau tuiuc jUBi iimii v*»> i Where could I find a better place to leave the presses and paper till that second journey Now the way seemed easy enough,for we were going on higher land before descending to Chamberlain. Before reaching the end of the carry, we were deep in mud and in the study of the habits of the musquito. AH good things come to an end, and so did the long, tiresome portage. In front was a shallow lake of sev eral miles extent, and this was “Mud Pond.” On the shores of this water I deposited my knapsack, fully convinced that a set of muscles differing from those commonly used in the gymnasium, had been called into play, and I concluded to accept hereafter the advice of guides. While rubbing sundry aching places under my arms and on my shoulders, I saw a nondescript craft coming across the pond.— One of the guides had just come up, having found my two firkins in the thickets, and had brought them along, lie said, “I thought you wouldn't care much about seeing such a carry twice.” As he looked up he saw the canoe approaching, and remarked, “Dirty Donnel, as sure as I’m alive. Now,” said he, “it will be just as well for you to sit here with the things till we get them all over, as old Donnel will take care of them if you don't.” The canoe, in which the worthy representa tive of the “Great Unwashed” was nearing us, was a “spruce-bark,” and a spruce-!>ark is in describable. It is made of the bark t urned in side out, and bent up at the ends, very much after the manner of a boy’s soldier-cap; and braced with ribs of cedar. “Donnel” was standing in this canoe as it came near the shore, and a strange sight it was. With no ex ception, his clothes were a patchwork of parti colors, now sewn with black thread and now with white; and, altogether, be presented a most outre appearance. As he landed and drew up his canoe, he turned to me and said with a “humph,” “Sacking?” On my giving an affirmative answer he amid, “Yer be ant much used to It, like?” With his sharp Scotch shrewdness he had seen in a moment that I was not used to “sack ing,” as they call carrying; and this remark in a broad Scotch brogue told his disguised na tionality. When he found I was waiting for others to come across the portage, he began looking at our traps, one after the other, say ing nothing at ail. Curious to learn something of the strange old fellow, I ventured to ask him a few questions about the facilities for hunting on a certain one of the northern lakes, but nothing would he say except now and then he would give a dissatisfied Indian grunt, and move further off. At last, despairing of learn ing anything about him till the guides came up, I said to him, “Our party are now coming trom Chesuncook.” He turned round and said in a broad voice, on a high key, “Where else could ye coom from, this gate?" He had given me a damper, but 1 again said, “Are you going down to Chesuncook pretty soon?” He growled out, “Yes, I’ll be going down to ‘Suncook the day, I’m out of tobacco.” Of course what little of the weed I had, was forthcoming, and I gave it to him. He put it in one of the numerous holes in his coat, but it tumbled out though in a twinkling, and he said as he picked it up and tried to find a bet ter place for it, “That's the deevil of having sae mony pocks in ane’s coat; there’s nae tell ing where on airth things gae to.” Saying which he placed the tobacco in some out-of the-way place or other, and sat down in quite a sociable way. “I’m building a birch up van, and this,” pointing to the spruce-bark, “is to get down to 'Suncook in.” A jug in the bow of his canoe readily showed what he was go ing down to ’Suncook for. “Was it wet on the carry, yon “Oh yes, I believe there’s always a heavy dew on Mud-Pond Carry, isn’t there?” “lou're richt, me freen, but there's pree cious little mountain-dew ever falls in my gate, now!” A shout from the rest of the party, who had been more judicious than I, and had walk ed more slowly, showed that the carrying is almost over, and we shall soon be on the wa ters of the Kast Branch Penobscot. “Dirty Donnel” is recognized by both the guides, and from his radiant countenance after his with drawal with them just out of sight.it could be seen that he had found a little Chesuncook pretty near home. A little mountain-dew had fallen in his path. While we are packing our loads in the ca noe, Donald is wondering why we are in a hurry. “Why can't we stop and talk a bit?” Our guides know better than we do, and so, bidding an affectionate adieu to the unlaved, we are sailing for Mud-Pond outlet.

The Doctor's Disagree. The political D. Ds., (Doctors of Democra cy,) are far from agreeing In relation to their pet schemes of fault-finding, and the grounds on which they assail the mode in which the war is prosecuted for the suppression of the re bellion and the restoration of the Union. Last winter at Augusta. Mr. Gould labored through seven mortal hours to oppose the majority of the House of Representatives, contending at all points that, under the “War power” of the Government, the President could confiscate slaves or anythingelseand In fact.that he could do almost unlimited acts. So nearly omnip otent did the authority of the President ap pear to Mr. G., under the liar power, that he exclaimed, “Thank God that Abraham Lincoln is an honeri man He was perfectly satisfied with confiscation of rebel property, slaves In cluded, i/it were done under the “War pow er,” while he seemed to see only a category of horrors in doing the same tiling by authority of Congressional action. Mr. Bradbury of East port was understood to take the same view, for lie emphatically en dorsed the entire speech ofMr. Gould, anil thus adopted it as his own. If we do not greatly misrecollect, our esteemed fellow-citizen, Col. Sweat of this city, took very much the same view, in the Senate. But how does this “doctrine of the fathers” of the Maine Democracy stand in the blazing light of Cooper Institute, under- the illumina tions of Fernando Wood and t he Journal of Commerce? Let one of the resolutions of th4t recent great meeting, which the paper referred to says “was without dispute one of the graiul “est demonstrations ever made in the coun try,” answer: Resolved, That m the proposition to erect a War power above the Constitution, for the purpose of abolishing slavery by its means, we find another plan to subvert the American sys tem. Thus differ those who talk so loud to prove their loyalty, and their desires to put down re bellion, while finding fault with and carping at almost every proposition or movement which contemplates an effective blow. They would encourage the President, support him in all Constitutional measures to carry on the war, but no matter what he does, unless he will dis criminate iu lavor of slavery and slaveholders, and avoid collision with tills Infamous system of oppression, and put on rubbers every time he kicks a reliel, why then he don't act Con stitutionally1 We have no patience with such quasi treason. They talk about “honest Old Abe,” and extol him as against his Cabinet, and proffer support of him in his Constitution al measures, but they mean anything but a frank, manly and cordial support of an efficient war policy. It is the sugar coating of rebel restoratives—the kiss that disguises the knife —the velvety sheat h of a poisoned poignard, We distrust all loyalty that hegins or ends with an “If”—we suspect all proffers ol aid to the President, in an hour like the preseut, that hinge on “but*” and proviso*. The country demands the full heart of every Union-loving man; no half-way or half-and-half sacrifices. Like a woman’s love, the country spurns all reservations, and demands unconditional de votion, and regards all that falls short of this as little better than open treason. He that is not for the country—first, last and all the time— beyond and independent of all condition*—is opposed to it. in tne remarks here submitted we express no lack of confidence in the loyalty of men simply because they have their own peculiar political notions, or because they have been heretofore, or an* now, democrats. No truer men live than many who are found in the dem ocratic railks, but their organizations are sadly Infected by a treasonable atmosphere. (}od forbid that we should utter a disparaging word against men whose breasts are hared to the en emy's bayonets, and whose faces are blackened with burning gunpowder and smeared with blood. We are not the one to set any fires in their rear. If they fight manfully in the field we will fight as manfully to protect their hon or and their good name. But for your mere caucus warriors, the shallow-pated expound ers of Constitutional law, who will stop and look up precedents before disarming a rebel or despoiling him of his property; who so con descendingly propose to support the govern ment if it wBl crawl on its knees before their party gods; who proffer kid-glove sup|xirt of the President if he w ill agree to steer the ship of State by their old faulty charts, and their compass whose needle always points to the Southern Cross instead of the North Star:— with all such persons we have neither patience nor sympathy. Let the country be sustained, say we, though every party idol tumbles from Its pedestal, and though the last vestige of negro-property be lost iu eternal oblivion. A Very Proper Suggestion. The Baltimore correspondent of the New York World says: “In my hmnhle Imt sensilde notion, every male sympathizer with the South should lie compelled to light against the South. 1 aui in favor of catching every carcass of them and sprinkling the army with them, say two or three to a regimeut, and compelling them to pay for their base ingraitude in the peril of their dlsgraceftil lives.” Wre learn that a very common impression pervades the ranks of the “Peace Democrats” of this State, that the language of General Order No. 16, which speaks of forming regi ments “by detachment or detail,” was not used without its peculiar meaning, and this mean ing is, as their fears suggest, that the loyal officers will “detail" none but Danaites, thus compelling those who have set their faces against the war, either to smell gunpowder or to pay $50 each! If there is any “constitu tional” way in which such u “detailing” may lie made ojierative, it would not lie a bad idea to “try it on.” One vicious horse iu*u team of six can be managed—or made la choke; a few platoons of rebel sympathizers could lie worked up in cac4 regiment In the same manner. Let them be required to fight—or skedaddle. The Spirit that Will Conquer. Cheering is the spirit that is uprising from the hearts of a patriotic people. It is the sign In which rebellion is to be conquered. At a public meeting in New Haven, a short time since, the gallant Commodore Foote, of Island No. 10 celebrity, was present, and a corres pondent of the Journal, referring to his re marks, says: He did not know but some expected him to make some statement of his agency in the af fairs on the waters of the West, but Inland his audience had not come together for any such purpose, but rather to confer on what can lie done to assist in raising troops to defend the national banner, from which he hoped nut a single star would ever be obliterated. (Ap plause.) He paid a deserved tribute to Secre tary Welles, under whose able administration of the Navy Department we have seen our naval |Hiwer so wonderfully developed. He now feared no foreign intervention. (Tremendous applause.) Our distingnisued Com. Gregory is now superintending the const ruction of such a number of Monitors as will give the English and French a suggestive admonition ifthevdare to meddle in our domestic affairs. (Great cheering.) Commodore Foote then read a note from Com. Gregory, which said as follows: Excuse me to my patriotic friends, as p am obliged to go. Tell them I am just now mak ing up some pills. (Monitors) esjiecially intend ed as a preventive, or cure, for one of John Bull's (cheers) chronic diseases—hostility to Republican Institutions. The “old gentleman” may tindthcin too big to swallow, and too hard to bite. His cun1 w ill lie certain if he ever takes them. I shall sustain the Government, right or wrong, in crushing this rebellion.— My keel was laid on Union blocks, and my course will be true to the Union always. The following extract from Gov. Spague’s proclamation shows the spirit of “Little Rho da:” __r_i. j t__ l.ij and unprincipled enemy in the field, in great strength, who, with almost barbarian ferocity, makes war on our government and our institu tions who would destroy our liberties, and re duce us to tile condition of serfs of a military despotism. To triumph at once over this law less horde of rels-ls. and to restore peace and 1 ro perity to our now distracted country, the government absloutely requires an augmenta tion of our military force. Kin Hie Islanders! you will readily and joyfully res|>ond to this call. Let no consideration stand between ns and tile duty we owe to our country. Let no sacrifice be thought too great to bo offered ou the altar of our country. Carry out the gd work you have so nobly begun, and so nobly prosecuted: and by all means let us give to the great and glorious cause all the aid the ex igencies demand. The following is from the Governor of Ohio, a whole-souled, patriotic Democrat: There is work for all to do. The aged can stimulate the young; the wealthy contribute to the wants and necessities of tile destitute; and the ladies, who have already done so much, and whoso kind heart will prompt them in tiie continuance of their good work, can encour age, by their noble example, both old and young, in the |>erformanee of this great duty. What is w ealth, or even life, worth, if, to preserve either, we have to confess to the world that we are unable to maintain our glorious government. The Baltimore Correspondent of the X. Y World says Xo sucli bastard loyalty as tliat of the Fer nando Wish] meeting has any sympathy amongst the Union men of Baltimore. 1 have heard it angrily denounced by Maryland slave holders ami warmly aplauded by Maryland reb els. One of the latter said in my hearing, “Its the best symptom 1 have seen this many a day. Tiie above extracts will serve as “specimen bricks” to show the material will) which our ruptured and battered national edifice is being repaired. Correspondence ot the Press. Kendall’s Mills, July 11,1802. Messrs. EditorsYou ask "Will the peo ple respond The question is one of great interest to even,- patriotic heart,—to everyone that loves his native State, and feels that her honor is his own. We wait with anxiety its elucidation. BecruHing offices in this section are almost as plenty as recruits, but it is cer tainly to lie hoped that Maine meu have too much patriotism, to allow selfish, or, indeed, any other considerations,to keep them at home at this juncture. In an interview with the (iovernor, on Tuesday, 8th inst, he assured me that unless the ltlth, 17th, and 18th regiments were made up in fifteen days men would be drafted. The fact that the country now needs the services of all her sons should be sufficient to induce every true man to enlist at once.— This is probably the last communication you will receive from me from this place as 1 Intend to practice what 1 preach. The i>eopIe of our village have responded nobly to the call of the Sanitary Commission for necessaries antf comforts for sick and wounded soldiers. On Sunday last a meeting w*as held, at the close of the forenoon services, in the Methodist church in this place, the pas tor. Bev. W. II. Strout, in the chair. A com mittee was appointed to collect money, and other articles. On Monday, the spacious hall of the Fairfield House, which was freely thrown open for that purpfce by the patriotic proprie tor, Mr. Hogan, presented a lively scene. Sev enty-five ladies, old and young, were present, all busily engaged in the work of cutting and basting garment#.picking lint, and makingand rolling bandages, their chatting accompanied by the clicking of some half-dozen sewing ma chines. Many thoughtful and some sad faces were there, for there were mothers, wives, and sisters, whose sons, husbands and brothers are with the army before Richmond, and by asso ciation, the work upon which they were en gaged called up visions of loved ones suffering with ghastly wounds, or lying stark and dead u|H>u the battle field. i ITmr tivfitl (a thiv eoliRlIlon __. j history in tears, and hlood and broken hearts, and how awful the responsibility, how terrible the retribution for those who have caused it.

Though a (sash and) blind man, Mr. C will undoubted ly see that all the duties devolving upon him j are fatthfdlly performed. The Arm with which 1 lie is connected are worthy of extensive pat milage, deserving it by their honesty, prompt ness and skill. Yours in haste, T. Z3F D is wonderful how sensitive some democratic editors are at the Idea of having men of dark skills aid in quelling the rebellion. We suppose if one ot them should have a child fill overboard, he would object to having it catch at a line thrown to it by a colored man. j it w ould disgrace the child for life to accept I salvation on such terms. Various Items of Interest. A despatch from Memphis, July Oth, says ‘•the business of this city continues to revive. Northern merchants, wit It new stocks ol poods, are opening stores which are freely patronized. The mails are sent North daily, but are re ceived irregularly, owing to the delay at Cairo. Six thousand letters were stmt North on Mon day. Several secession sympathizers haveheen ar rested. and yesterday were passed South. A negro was arrested yesterday w ith a large mail from persons In tin; rebel army to their friends here. The seeessioinsts of Warrentou are glory ing overthc news of the battle near Richmond, hut acknowledge that if McCiellon gets rein forcements enough to take Richmond, the war would be over. A scouting party found a mill in full opera tion some miles from Warrentou, making army cloth, one thousand yards lieing ready for de livery. The owners of the mill and operatives were notified that they would be held respon sible w ith their lives should it Ik; sent away. Col. Mulligan, the hero of Lexington, who has been engaged in guarding prisoners at Camp Douglas all winter, is now entrenching himself at Harper’s Ferry, overlooking Boli var Hights. He has a splendid fighting corps, some of whom were In the Crimean war. Hon. Jere. Clemens of Alabama, is severely denounced by a Georgia rebel paper because he has expressed his loyalty to the United States Government, and pronounced the South ern Confederacy a failure. Ux-Goveruor Seymour of Connecticut, it is said, is about to raise one of the five new regi ments required from that State. He has much fame as a soldier—having, as is well known, distinguished himself greatly in the Mexican war, and, no doubt, could bring large numbers speedily to his standard. The latest accounts from the army of the Potomac state that ourioss in killed, wounded, and missing in the late battles will not exceed eleven thousand men. Hon. Rols'rt J. Walker, it is said, will short ly publish the first of a series of letters in w'hich he will sustain at length the gradual emancipation policy of President Lincoln. Letter from Dr. J. F. Day, Jr. Dr. J. F. Day, Jr., of this city, Assistant Surgeon of the 10th Maine Regiment, at pres ent the Superintendent of York Hospital, at Winchester, Va., ami late a prisoner, has writ ten a letter to his father, from which we are permitted to make the following extract: I have been unconditionally released though the provost Marshall demanded my parole." I refused to give it and told him in the presence of the other Surgeons. I would never sign any paper that would prevent me from adminis tering to the wants and comfort of the sick and wounded soldiers, wherever I might find them. He said “then- sir, I shall take you to Richmond.” I told him he might take me to Richmond or to a hotter place, but I never would sign any such paper. He concluded on the whole to leave me. and all the other sur geons with me to take care of the sick and wounded. 1 have received from the soldiers who have l»een under my care, a handsome sash, as a testimony of their appreciation, and regard for my services in their behalf since my release. I have been detached from the Regi ment. and appointed by Gen. Siegel, .Supt. of the York Hospital, at Winchester, and the ap pointment has been confirmed by Gen. llanks. 1 have had plenty of cutting to do since the battle, and operations of all kinds to perform. I have been very successful in all my opera tion. and some of them have been very critical and dangerous ones. I find ipiite a difference between theory and practice, am more than ever satisfied that it is only by practice that a man can ever practice surgery successfully. A large crayon picture of Dr. Day, taken while a prisoner at Winchester, may be seen at the Window of Messrs. Lowell Seuter, Ex change Street. Aid for Sick and Wounded Soldiers. Mrs. Goddard gratefully acknowledges the following list of supplies, as the result of her solicitation in Ix-half of the Hospital at Har per's Kerry: Ladles’ Comittee, Portland, 1 box. Saco, 2 boxes.

Z3T' l" reference to tlie state of the mar kets of last w eek, the Price Current of Satur day says:— The past week lias been characterized by much excitement on many articles of trade, es pecially on such us are subject to import du ties. The continued extraordinary upward movement in the premium on gold', and tlie consequent unprecedented high rates of for eign exchanges, have had the effect to advance the prices of all articles subject to duties, as the premium paid is equivalent to so much in crease of the actual duties. Sugars of all grades have materially advanced, and tlie market is excited and prices unsettled. The same may also lie said of molasses. Spices are tending to higher prices. Coffees and Teas an- held lirinlv and the market is buoyant. Flour ha' advanced, and prices are fluctuating. Provisions and Produce are steady at former prices. Tobacco is in steady active demand, j and dealers are looking for a further rise in prices. Hay and Lumber meet a steady in quiry at our quotations. Reckittino for the 18th at tin East.

Sweat made the speech of the evening. The report of it is spun out longer than that of any other speaker, uot excepting Gen. Howard’s. We graut it was the speech— the unfortunate speech—and we say this in the exercise of only a kind spirit towards its author, whom we respect as a man, much as we may difler with him on questions of policy or of right. JJr he editor of the Adfcrtiwi had occa siorf to w rite the phrase—"Tito Democratic I Party and the War,” ami his printer made him say Bar instead of War. We arc glad Bro. Case has made the correction, for we didn't know but lie intended to charge our Demo crat ie friends with more practice at the bar than comport* with a tetotaler's notions of so briety.

Ey Unpleasant rv|iorU are circulated rela tive to Gen. Mitchell, by officers of his divis ion in Northern Alabama. Ills personal eon duet Is complained of as erratic and unsoldier j like. The Louisville Journal says his course has been “disgraceful to humanity.” By express this morning eight cases of Hospital Stores were sent forward to Mrs. Goddard, for the hospital at Harper’s Ferry; donations for this hospital front the towns in I this vicinity. Z.W Mrs. Goddard of the General Hospital at Harper’s Ferry, will leave the city for her pol l of duty to-day.

Pope's Proclamation—M tine Prisoners al Richmond—From James Ricer—Arri val of Sick Soldiers—Rumored recapture of Raton Rouge. Washington, July 14. Gen. Tope has issued the following procla mation To the officers and soldiers of the army of Virginia:—By a special assignment of the President I have assumed command of this army. I have spent two weeks in learning your whereabouts your condition and your wants, in preparing you for active operations and placing you in position from which you can act promptly and to the purpose. These labors are nearly completed and I am about to join you in the held. Let us understand each other. I have come to you from the West where we have always seen the backs of our enemies—from an army whose business it has been to seek an adversary, and beat him when found—whose policy has been attack and not defence. In but one instance has the enemy been able to place our Western army in a defensive attitude. 1 presume I have been called here to pursue the same system and to lead you against the enemy. It is my purpose to do so, and that speedily.' I am sure you long for an opportunity to win distinction. You an- capable of achieving that opportunity I shall endeavor to give you. In the meantime I desire you to dismiss cer tain phrases I am sorry to find much in vogue amongst you. I hear constantly of taking strong positions and holding them, of lines of retreat and bases of supplies. Let us discard such ideas. The strongest position a soldier should dcsjre to occupy is one from which he can most easily advance against the enemy. Lot us study thc la ware.

The Right Man in tiie Right Peace.— A tall, noble 8|>ccitnon of the down east fanner lad, from Somerset Comity, popped into the composing room of our office at 5 o'clock, yes terday morning, and with an air of concentra ted amazement and curiosity, surveyed the action of the steam power press, as it threw off its accustomed burden of “light and intel ligence.” There was something so peculiar in his ap pearance, that we ventured to enter into con versation. “You’re a stranger, perhaps, in this place,” said we. “Kayther,” returned our friend, “I belong to the town of Solon, in this State. I heard the noise of this printing consara, and I thought I'd come up and see it. You’d jest as leives as not, had’ut yerT” “Certainly,” said we, “but how long have you been in town t” “Come last night, about two o'clock in the mornin.” “By what conveyance?” asked we. “Shoes,” answered he—“1 footed it all the way clean from Solon.” “Somewhat tired,” we asked. “More hungry than tired. I forget what grub looks like.” Having assured him of the certainty of a breakfast that morning, he became more loqua cious. “Well, r II tell yer what I came for. I can’t stand still and be drafted, so I thought I would list. There's a ’cruiting office, about here, aint they We gave him the necessary information, and the noble lad's eyes brightened up as he look ed forward to the future, and said he, “I’ll see some of them fellers,” mrauing the rebels. “I shot crows once, and I guess I can shoot other carrion.” The last time we saw him, he was trying to effect an entrance into a furniture shop in his search for some “grub.” Tu* Good Wokk Continues.—We visited the committee rooms of the Soldiers Aid Soci ety yesterday morning, and were glad to notice the continued and strenuous exertions being made for the relief of oar wounded and sick soldiers at the South. Six large cases were received yesterday morning by the committee, four of which were from the good people of Brunswick. We would therefore remind the citizens of Maine, of the importance of early, prompt, and generous attention to this matter. We cannot speak of it too often, neither can the people give too freely. The following arti cles are earnestly called for. Sheets, shirts, drawers, stockings,bandages, lint, loose gowns, and in fact anything which may be a comfort to the sick. Let, then, every man, woman and child of the Forest City and Pine Tree State, give something towards ameliorating the sufferings of those who do our battles. Let us not be merely content to sit at home and read of what they have done, but rather let us show to the world what we can do. “Freely ye hare re ceived, freely give.” sad accident.— 1 esternay ailernoon as the cars of the Grand Trunk Road were pass ing through Commercial street, an employee named Michael Me Shea in jumping off to change a switch, fell under the wheels, which passing over both legs nearly severed them from bis body. The sufferer was immediately conveyed to his residence and every aid tha medical skill could devise was promptly afford ed. The limbs were crushed one above and the other just below the knee, his sufferings terminating in death, at 6 1-2 o'clock, last eve ning. The unfortunate man was alxiut forty years of age and leaves a wife and family to mourn his loss. In the midst of life we are iu death.” The Christian Hero and the Sabbath Schools.—General Howard's addresses be fore the Sahbath School children, on Sabbath evening last, were received with the highest feeling of satisfaction and pleasure. The Gen eral is a thorough tactician, inasmuch as he has won for himself by this last effort of his, a gallant abiding place in the memories of the parents through the hearts of the children. Portland Comi.no to the Rescue.—We were informed yesterday afternoon, by the gentlemen connected with the Recruiting Of flee at No. 4 Fox Ulock, that inen are now of fering their services much more readily than at any former period since the opening of this office. We are informed also, that the men al ready enlisted have been those of good charac ter and teni|>erate habits, many of them bring men of liberal education, who, iu the desire to •enre their country, have left lucrative situa tions. Parents have brought their sons to this company, feeling assured from the moral stand ing and character of the officers, that no belter company than this can be found. Young men men of this city and vicinity desirous of ad ding their names to the roll call of this com pany, are requested to do so immediately, be fore the ranks are full. A Load or Barrels.—Whenever we see a load of barrels we are forcibly reminded of the, old and homely expression, “When you see a load of barrels, lie sure it will rain.-’ So also will come Christinas. But enough. The at mosphere pervading every nook and corner of our city yesterday, was of that sultry, murky nature from contact, with wliirh mankind shrink and ideas wilt. A mass meeting upon such a day, to “devise ways and means,“would not be of a very enlivening character; and we liavc even noticed public patriotism to be at a much lower ebb on a warm day than upon one of our clear, bracing Northeast winter days. Gaki'IS Fruit.—Now that the gardens of our residents are being graced by rich clusters of red ripe rurrants, would it not be a kind act for the ladies to preserve a few, and for ward them to the Union hospitals for the beni flt of our soldiers t Who will send the first jar to the Committee Rooms at the New City Ilali? Keep Cool!—A vicious animal, attached to a wagon, loaded with refrigerators, Ac., start ed off through Middle street, yesterday, upon a dead gallop, scat taring his wares in nil direc tions. He was finally secured without having done material damage. Our friend, Dr. L. C. Gilson, Druggist, in Market. Square, has been Imposing upon us recently In a manner which, added to the ex cessive heat of the weather, has made us puff profusely, and in order to show proper resent ment for such treatment, we here declare that if Gilson’s medicines are as curative as his ci gars are delicious, we should feel great confi dence in the general good health of the com munity. John B. Hudson, Jr., 175 Middle Street, has on exhibition at hisstudio some very choice specimens of his art, particularly of a local na ture. We would recommend any one who would spend an agreeable half hour to visit this gallery and view for themselves the beauty and finish l« which his work lias been brought. One painting which wc noticed deserves par ticular mention—that of Beaver l’ond at sun set—a most magnificent picture, of large size, and one that calls forth universal admiration. 13T The O^ean In mi ranee Company have declared a semi-annual dividend of six per ct.

Tlic President has submitted to Congress a brief message, enclosing the draft of a bill to compensate any State which may aladish slav- j ery w ithin its limits, and respectfully recoin- mending its passage. The following message from the President was delivered to Congress to-day. Fellow citizens of the Senate and House of Hrpresrntatiees: Herewith is the draft of the bill to eotn|>en sate any State which may alsilish slavery w ith- in its limits, the passage of which substantially as presented, 1 respectfully and earnestly re commend. (Signed) Abraham Lixooi.x. lie it enacted by the Senate and House of Jh presentatiecs, in Conyress assembled That w henever the President of the Coiled States shall be satisfied that any State shall have lawfully aliolished slavery within and j throughout such State, either immediately or j gradually, it shall be the duty of the President, assisted by the Secretary of the Treasury, to prepare and deliver to each State an amount of six per cent, interest, bearin- bonds of the United States, equal to the aggregate value of dollars per head, of all the slaves within such States, as reported by the census of 1800. The whole amount for any one Stal«* to Is- deliver ed at once, if -the abolishment be immediate, or in equal annual installments, if it be grad ual, interest to begin running on each bond at the time of delivery and not lieforc. And lie it further enacted, that if any State having received any such Iannis, shall at any time afterwards, by law, introduce or tolerate slavery within its limits, contrary b> art of abolishment upon which such bonds shall have been received, said bond so received by said States, shall at once be null and void in whose- ever hand they may la-, and such State shall refund to the United States all interest which j may have been paid on such bonds. The House Select Committee on cmancipa tlon in the border States will probably report main this sullied to-morrow The following is an extract of the bill passed by the House to-day ini|iosiiig an additional tax on sugar produced in the United States: On all Muscovado or clarified sugars produced directly from sugar cane, there shall lie levied, collected and paid under this act, upon all such sugars produced in the United States, a duty of one cent j>er pound and such addi tional duty and the duty specified in the act aforesaid,shall lie levied, collected and paid on "II such sugars not manufactured for consump tion in the family of the producer or nianu farturer thereof, on the day of the approval of this aet by the President. Section 2d provides that this aet shall not apply to to sugar manufactured from Sorghum. l'lte members of Congress of the border States met, but did not conclude their busi ness to-night. It seems, however, that while they will. |K-rliaps, with a half a dozen excep tions, not eudorae the President's emancipa tion scheme, they will, nevertheless, propose it to the respectful consideration of their respec tive States. The Committee of Ways and Means has a recommendation before them urging the ne cessity of Congressional legislation to relieve the sjieeie market. Col. Krank lllair has gone lo Missouri to raise his brigade. The President has refused to sanction the removal of the siek and wounded Pennsylvan ians. The reeent removal of 17(H) from York town to Rhode Island, was against (lie orders of the Surgeon General. No hospital accom modations were provided and the men arc now suffering. The Navy department has received dis patches stating that Lieut- Ilraine recently larked up at sea in an open boat, eight con trabands from Little River Inlet. S. G.. from whom information was obtained that two schooners w ere preparing to run the blockade, laden with cotton and turpentine, and that the cargo was already in a warehouse near the wharf, ready for shipment. An expedition was sent up, but the town was found deserted. Tlie vessels were not considered worth bring ine away, and they were burned, together with 200 bbls turjientinc, 60 bales of cotton, and 53 barrels resin. From Fortreaa Monroe. Fortress Monroe, July 13. A rebel spy was captured yesterday after noon by some telegraph men. Our gunboats have been shelling the woods along the hanks of the river. Only one gun was seen fired by tile rebels. A schooner was seized at Harrison’s Land ing ye t Tday, by order of (Jen. McClellan, ni:d sent to Baltimore with all her cargo. She had liquors on board and belonged to sutlers. There was a skirmish at Williamsburk on Friday, between the federal and rebel pickets, in which :i of the latter were killed and 7 captured. From California. San Francisco, July 9. Letters received from Lucon to the 7th of Juue, report that Captain Fritz of the Califor nia volunteers had arrived at Lurson on the llllh, with 20 rebels captured at the Patazmoro Silver mines. Among them was Lieut. Mow ry, charged with furnishing ammunition and supplies to the enemy.

The prisoners will be brought to Fort Yuma. (Jen. Carlcton was returning to Fort Yumn. Part of his command have moved towards Messilla. The army is in good health. The whole busness portion of the town of St Louis in Sieria Count was destroyed by Are yesterday morning. July 11.

The steamer from the northern roast yester day brought 200,000 dollars in gold from Ore gon. British Columbia Recounts on the whole are encouraging to believers in extensive mining regions. The season is not sufficiently advanced to permit much developement of the Carribo mines of British Columbia. Interesting from the Soutn. Memphis. July 11. Arkansas refugees report that (Jen. Curtis attacked and cut to pieces 500 Confederates, under Col. McNeil, thirty miles east of Bates ville. on the 4th. The (Jrenada Ap|>csl states that a foraging party, numbering 1100, of (Jen. Curtis' army, had been attacked by the Confederates and nearly all killed. Few were captured alive.

The same pajier says the Canal at Vicks burg is progressing, 5000 negroes being em ployed on It. The ilis*.issippian states that (Jen. Butler visited Baton Kottge on Saturday. (Jen. (Jrant has issued an order requiring th» families of all persons connected with the con federate army or government to leave the city within 7 day* or take an oath that they have not and will not furnish information to the enemy, This sweeping order is in consequence of communication between rebels and their friends here. It causes considerable excite ment. Enthusiastic War Meeting. Tai nton, July 14. A large and enthusiastic citizens meeting was held this evening at the town hall. Hon. K. H. Bennett, chairman. Stirring and pat riotic addresses were made by Judge Bennett, f'apt. Janies Brown, Hon. S. L. Crocker, and others.

Cincinnati, July 14. The Gazette's special dated I.cx'uigton, says that Gen. Ward assumed command last night. The city is under martial law—no man is to ap|iear without Ids musket, under penalty of being shot down. (icn. Ward's proclamation orders all the citizens of Fayette eounty to prepare forthwith for military duty. Tlie Commercial's special, dated Frankfort, says that Morgan with less than 10,000 men crossed the Kentucky river this morning, and moved north to Verseilles, where now is a force sufficient for the protection of Frankfort and Lexington. Since Saturday night the city has been great ly excited. A thousand rumors are afloat.— Meetings have heou held, and citizens in large numbers have volunteered special service at Lexington. Over one hundred of the city po lice wlmt fully armed. Many citizens are yet anxious to go, but their services will not be accepted until further uews is had from Mor gan. The Affair at Murfreesboro. Nashville, July 14. A prisoner of Hewitt's battery, who escap ed from Murfreesboro, says that their battery and the 3d Minnesota had surrendered. CaL DutHeld was mortally wounded. Gen. T. A. Crittenden, of Indiana, is a prisoner. 11c reports the 1st, 2d and 4th, Georgia reg iments. the 2d Kentucky, and Texan Hangers, in all about 0000 men, as advancing on Nash ville.

The commissary and quarter- j master’s departments were recently replenish ed w ith new clothing. &c. There is great excitement here and many families have left. The Louisville cars wen' crowded this morning with alarmed cotton 8]>cculators and adventurers. It is reported that the rebels have l>een within fifteen miles of Nashville nfter forage. Col. Lester is falling back towards Nash ville, and reinforcements are arriving for pro tection of the city. War Facta and Rumors. Hai.timokk, July 14. The American of this afternoon says, we learn of Mr. Airey of this city, who escaped from Kiehinond on Tuesday last, that the reb el troops in and around previous to the recent tattles, were estimated at from 217,000 to 220, 000. I,argc reinforcements from the direction of Petersburg had been arriving for the pre vious 10 days and nights, which were said to l>e from the coast, but our informant could not ascertain whether any portion of them were of Beauregard's army. They arrived by railroad, and were marched during the night towards Hanover Court House. Uen. Beauregard hail lieen in Richmondsev- I eral weeks, suffering from a severe attack of fever, and was still at the Spottswood House ronttned to his room when Mr. Airey left. Gen. McCall and Keynolds were neither of i them wounded, and after remaining a day at the SpotswiMid House they were taken to the officers' prison. A guiilsiat on the plan of ttie Merriinae, though much smaller, is rapidly approaching completion at Hicliniond, though great diilicul ty is experienced in obtaining iron for her ar mor. The obstructions in the Janies rivet were considerably weakened by the recent freshets. One of the sunken vessels had so swung around that the Tenzer was able to pass through, and was soon after captured. Fort Darling has been greatly strengthened, and the batteries are iron clad. A whole division of the army had crossed the James river on a pontoon bridge, to assist in its defence against any land force. The bridges destroyed by (Jen. McClellan in the vicinity of Hanover Court House have not peeu reconstructed. The forces of (Jen. Jackson had moved off,it was thought towards Fredericksburg, anil it was said he would again strike a blow in the valley. The Maryland rebel regiments were with him under Gens. Love and Hradlev. Johnson had suffered terribly in the fight with Fremont—one regiment was cut down 700 to 200 men. The greatest confidence was felt at Rich mond among the rebels in their ability to de stroy McClellan's army, and those who had previously sent their families were bringing them back again. The Union men, however, were confident of the final capture of the city. The. cannons captured during Uie recent bait ties were ail brought into Richmond. They numbered 28 pieces, some of them howitzers, and 3 army rifled guns. They were all light pieces, and with the exception of the how itzers and one English gun, were sent to the foundry to be recast, the rebels having no shells to fit rifled cannon. Xot a single Beige piece had been captured, and much surprise was express ed that McClellan had succeeded in carrying them all olf. The falling bark of the rebel army towards Richmond had caused considerable dissatisfac tion, as it was given out that (Jen. McClellan would be attacked in his present position. New York. July 14. Mrs. President Lincoln and her two sons accompanied by Col. Sweeney,Col. Howe,Col. Murphy, and several lady friends, made an ex cursion in the harbor to-day. in the revenue steamer Wyandote. They visited the steamers City of New York and Great Eastern, and were received in line style, amid cheers for the President, and the playing of Hail Columbia and Yankee Doodle by the bands. The guus of the big ship gave the customary salute. riiii.AnEt.PHiA, July 14. Steamer Emily, captured on the 7th near Charleston, arrived this morning in charge of a prize crew. Stock Market.

MISCELLANY._ Anderson the Wizzard Sold by a Yankee. Professor Anderson was once accosted by a raw Yankee, thus:— “I sav I are you Professor Anderson, eh “Yes', sir.” “Wal, you’re a tarnation smart man, I hear. You ain’t got that ’ere bottle of yourn with ye —have you “No, sir.” “Wall, I’m from Down East, having been raised in Maine, and I should like to purchase a duplicate of that ’ere bottle, as I am going out stumping for-. 1 gess if I had vour bottle, or its twin brother, I’d swamp the Scotties, without talking politics either. ”1 never cany my bottle with me, nor have I a duplicate ofit.'’ Sorry for that, sir,” said the-stumper “However,” he continued, “I was once taught a trick when a boy, but 1 almost forget how the thing was done, now. I’ll tell you how it was, stranger, as near as I can. I used to take a red cent and change it into a ten dollar gold piece.” “Oh!” said the professor, “that is quite sim ple, a mere trick or sleight of hand.” “Wal, I know it’s not very difficult, but ss I forget how, will you show me at the same time handing a cent to the Wizard. “Oh, yes, sir, if it oblige you. I will show you in a moment. Hold your hand hard,” said the Wizard. “This ia your cent, is it not “Yes, sir.” “Close your hand.” The Down Easter closed his hand IhaL “Are you sure you have it said the Wiz ard. “I gess 1 have,” said he; “and I’ll bet a dol lar you can’t change it into a ten dollar gold pieceA “Done!” said the Wizard. “Now hold faat!” “Yes, sir 11 reckon I will—but stop I down your dollar? here’s mine!” said the Yankee. The Wizard covered his dollar. “Are you poaitive you have the cent,” asked Anderson. “I ain’t nothing else!” said the Down East er. “Changer said the Wizard. “Now, sir, open your hand.” He did eo. and to his utter astonishment he held a bona flde ten dollar gold piece. “Well, sir,” said the Wizard, you have lost your dollar.” “I guess I have!” said he, handing over the two dollars. “Now,” said the professor, “I'll bet you an other dollar I’ll change the cent to your hand again, much quicker. “No, you don’t I” said the gent from Maiue, putting the ten dollars in his pocket, and but toning it up tight.—“ I’m much obliged to you professor, but I reckon I’ll leave it as it" is! Good morning, old hoes,” said be, walking out of the office, and, turning round as be reached the door, he placed his digitals in cloee approximation to his proboscis, saying: “I guess there ain’t any green about this child!” and left the professor in utter amazement at hit coolness. A Paragraph for ladles. Mott of our fkir readers have a decided aversion to that part of their duty which falls under the patching and darning denomination. They are of opinion that a rent may be the ac cident of a day, a dam premeditated poverty. But if they only knew how pretty a well-exe cuted piece of repair looks, when you see in it warp and woof of the bright threads of ecnn-' omy and independence, and womanly thrift, crossing and re-crossing one anoiher, they would lay aside embroideries and crotchet work, and take up, instead, the mending bas ket. We rode down town the other day, and the only occupants of the stage were a young gentleman and a lovely girl of, we should' think about eighteen. She was the prettiest, fresh est looking girl one would want to see—there were no traces of midnight parties and head ache mornings in those peach-blossom checks, and clear, bright eyes: and all the numberless little items of her dress were as fresh and trim as she herself—from the pink bonnet strings down to the neatly tltting gloves, and delicate gaiter boots. If we had been an old bachelor, or a young one either, we should cer tainly have fhllen in love with that girl, par ticularly after we had discovered she was as industrious as pretty. And how do you sup pose we found ont The handkercheif that lay in her lap told us so. The neat litle darn, elaborately executed in its comer, with its small white stitches and skilful handiwork, had a tongue quite audible to our ears. Time and patience and wise com|tany had been there. The gentleman sitting opposite saw the little token also; we noticed his eye turning from the handkerchief to the blooming face and back, and back to the handkerchief again, and we knew perfectly well what he was thinking of—the good wife the yong lady would make, and how neat the husband's cravats and stock ing^ would be. Poor fellow, the edge of his ahlrt bosom was a little frayed, and one or two buttons were missing, whose detection the ar rangement of bis cravat-ends could not con ceal. Perltaps he had a wife who didn't be lieve in mending and darning—perhaps he had none at all. However that may have been, his admiring eyes appreciated the darn on the handkerchief more than if it had been the richest and most sight-destroying embroidery —not for what it was, but for what it betoken ed. Girls I don't shrink from a mending place as if it were a plague spot; the longer your old last, the better able you will be to have new ones by and by. Sensible people read character in little tilings; and nobody will think the worse of you, whatever may be yout station in life, for the exercise of economy and thrift. A stich in time saves nine, and some times it saves a good deal more than that.— English paper. Pleasures of Aerial Navigation. The Boston lYanncript of Thursday gives the following account of a pleasure excursion, which came near having a tragic termination: “The balloon Star Spangled Banner made an ascension from the Common, yesterday after noon, notwithstanding the storm. Mr. Samuel A. King, proprietor of the bal loon, was accompanied by J. B. Stearns, Super intendent of the Telegraphic Fire Alarm, Wil liam McCormick. Mr. Luther L. Holden of the Herald, and Thaddeus Page. The balloon took an easterly course, passing in a line down Summer street, and immediately over the har bor. There was a fog at the time over the wa ter. and it was decided to make a descent as soon as possible. The gas was allowed to es cape, and the balloon, it was supposed, could be landed at Fort Independence. But this was found impracticable. It first struck in the wa ter a little southwest of Kainsford Island. The balloon again arose, and went toward Long Island. It was thought a landing could be ef fected here, but this expectation was not real ized. In the meantime, several boats, and the steam-tug Huron, Capt. Scolley, were endeav oring to follow the aeronauts. Lines were thrown out, which were caught first by a sail boat; but this proved inefficient The balloon continued to go up and down by turns, dash ing the party beneath the water. The Huron finally got a purchase ii|ion it, but an inch rope was broken as if it had been only a thread. A second time it was attached to the tug, but so great was the power of the balloon, that the nteamer was drawn three-quartern of a mite, when the passengers made their escape on board. Mr. Stearns was thrown into the water, but by great exertions was recovered. Mr. King was the last to leave the basket, which he had no sooner done than the rope parted, and the balloon shot off into the clouds at a fearful rate. It was valued at $800. The party got on board the Huron about half-past eight, and reached the city an hour later, thoroughly drenched, but in good spirits. It was a very narrow escape from drowning.-’ The Advantage or vbing Tobacco.— The following was communicated to Com. Wilkes, of the exploring expedition, by a sav age of the Feiee Islands. He stated’ that a vessel, the hulk of which was still lying on the beach, had come ashore in a storm, and that all the crew had fitllen into the hands of the island ers. ‘•What did you do with them?” inquired Wilke*. “Killed ’em all,” answered the savage. “What did you do with them after you had killed them!” “Eat ’in—good,” returned the cannibal. “Did you eat them all asked the half-sick Commodore. “Yes, WC eet all but one.” “And why did you spare one “Because HS TACT? TOO MUCH LIKJ£ TOBAC CO. Couldn’t eat nohow.” If a tobacco chewer should happen to fall Into the hands af New Zealand savages, or gei shipwrecked somewhere in the Feqjee group he will have the consolation of knowing thai he will not be cut into steaks, and buried m th bbl.

PROSPECTUS or THE PORTLAND DAILY PR ESS: EDITED BY JOHN T. GILMAN, recently of the Bath Times, aed JOSEPH B. HALL, of the Aroostook Herald. The Portland Daily Press it intended to be an enterprising, rigorous and live Daily Morning Paper, containing the latest and fullest news by mail and telegraph. THE MAINE STATE PRESS Is a large, well-filled, carefully edited, and neatly printed weekly paper, intended specially for general circulation throughout the State. Both of the above named paper* will labor to inculcate, in no dictatorial spirit, sound political prin ciples and to promote the material interests of the State, and of the City of Portland as its interests twine with, and are inseparable from, those of the State. Politically, the Press will give an earnest, cordial, and generous support to the administration of Abra ham Lisools, who in little more than one year, has indellibly impressed himself upon the nation’s heart as an incorruptible 'patriot, an inflexible Chief Mag istrate, and an honest man; the ability of whose ad ministration is most signally exhibited, not'only in the matchless operations of our army and navy, but in the unparalleled fact that, in the midst of this gigantic rebellion,' onr Government securities are selling at a premium. It will zealously labor to ex hibit and defend sound Republican principles, and, inasmuch as political organizations have become a necessity in carrying into effect great principles of political economy, and inasmuch as ,tbe Republican party which, in the brief chapter of its history already written, has successfully refuted the allegation of its enemies that its designs and tendencies were sec tional, and triumphantly vindicated its claim to a Just and liberal Nationality, has remained steadfast in its devotion to the Union while other organizations have so generally become infected with a disloyal spirit, and iuasmuch as it is the only party which at present seems competent to conserve the great prin ciples underlying all free Governments, the Press will cordially sustain the organization of that party, not with a design to foster a mere partizan spirit, but in the full coniciousness that it embodies the true principles upon which our government rests, and af fords the ody available means of accomplishing such results as a lofty patriotism imperatively demands. It will neither seek nor endorse any compromises with men in rebellion against the laws of the land, but will inculcate loyalty to the great central idea of all true democracy—that the majority must govern. Upon the exciting question of Domestic Slavery, it may be proper to say, that while the Press will sanc tion no interference with the constitutional or legal rights of loyal men, it will neither apologize for an evil which constitutes the foulest blot upon onr national character, nor attempt to resist the tide of events that seems destined to sweep from existence an institution which is the greatest anomaly in a free government. The emancipation of slavery in the federal Capital, the co-operation of the Federal with the loyal State governments, to secure gradual eman cipation, as proposed by President Lincoln, and all other constitutional measures looking to a peaceful removal of our greatest “moral, political and social evil,’’ will find in the Press a generous and hearty support. n mi” loui uwuiicut ■nii'iuncinr uif general course proposed for the Press, and intending that, alike in war and in peace—in our country's peril snd in its triumph, it shall speak with no uncertain voice, we do not lose sight of the fact that true men have hon estly differed. and that, coming by different routes they now find themselves travelling parallel roads; and, instead of seeking to widen the differences be tween those who are required bv a common patriot ism to act in concert, the Press will labor hopefully to encourage unity of purpose and harmony of act ion among all loyal men. Aside from its political department, the Press will be earnestly devoted to the advancement of the best Interests of the city and State. Its Local Depart ment will in no case be neglected. Particular atten tion will be given to the Commercial and Maritime interests. It will be the aim of its conductors to make it an indispensable institution of the State, and a ge nial and welcome visitor in every work-shop, count ing-house, and fiunily circle. The Editors, not un known to the people of Maine, will give their undivi ded energies to the work before them, and labor to make such a paper as the city of Portland, the State of Maine, and the exigencies of the times demand— one that shall be true to the popular instincts. The Portland Daily Press is printed with en tirely new type, on a sheet as large as that of any daily in Maine, and issued every morning, (Sun days excepted.) at 86 per annum. Subscriptions for less than sfx months, 60 cents per month. The Maihe State Press, large, neatly printed, and well filled with the news of the week, and orig inal and selected Political, Agricultural, Literary and Miscellaneous reading, making it specially adapted to the Family Circle, wiirbe issued weekly, at 81.60 per year, idvariably in advance.

CAUTION.—It has been estimated that over two hundred thousand dollars are paid to swindling quacks annually, in New England alone, without any benefit to those who pay it. Most of this sum comas out of a class of persons who are tbe least able to loee it. but once paid then con never get it back, and they are compelled to suffer the wrong in silence, not dar ing to expose tbe cheat for fear of exposing them selves. All this comes from trusting, without inquiry, to men who are alike destitute or honor, character, end skill, and whose only recommendation ia their own false and extravagant assertions, in praise of themselves.
