A Cheering Word Iron Kennebec. A friend of education, a man of democratic Instincts, and a practical patriot, at Kent's Hill, having occasion to send us a private let ter, Indulges in a few reflections, the tone of which so well pleases us that we take Uie lib erty of transferring the following passages to our columns: I see that you are about to advance the subscription prije of the Press. Well, it is right to do so, and your subscribers can but feel that “necessity is upon you.” I am a subscriber to the Daily Press, and shall continue to take it while it supports the government that has protected me and mine, until the present day. I made a tour to the eastern section of the State in October, and beard the Press spoken of in very high terms. Success to you friend Gilman, and to the Press that you edit, so long asyou,aud the principles of your paper, sustain tile constitu tion and laws of my bleeding country. I love my country, and have laid my first boon upon its aitar; and about twenty young men who have been members of our school, are now in the army and navy. Now, dear sir, I care not by whom deliver ance come*, if our country can bo saved.— McClellan was a good general, a good patriot, a good man, and a good Democrat—so is Burn side. McClellan did ail he could, I think. I hope BurnBlde will accomplish more. If he conquers a peace with the sword of the na tion every good and true patriot will rtfoice. If he fail*, all will mourn. His politics make him neither better nor worse. Why all this talk in the papers about the polities of our Generals What do the people care about it What do the soldiers care about it? The would be great men ami leaders in po litical matters could be spared from the com munity, and the public would breathe the freer, and the nation would be in a more healthy condition. Fardon me for writing so much, for I in tended merely to speak a word of encourage ment, and ask for my bill. [From the New York Commerdal Advertiser.) The Blockade ofl Charleston. A naval officer of the squadron employed in blockading the port of Charleston, recently addressed a communication to tlie Times, showing some of the peculiar difficulties con nected with tlie service, and poiutiug out facts that show the blockade to be far inure efficient than the commanders on the station and the Navy Department receive credit (or. He com plained, aud we suspect not without justice, that, “much is said aud loud complaints are mode iu the papers when a vessel successfully runs tlie blockade, but people seem rarely to hear of the blockade when prosecuted with vigor and success, aud when valuable prizes are being frequently taken.” He adils: “I have now been off here sixty days with this steamer, forming oue of the blockading squadron, aud during that time not a vessel has got successfully in; and but one vessel, the steamer Hero, has got out, which happened iu a dark, foggy night, when it would have taken fifty instead of twelve vessels to have success fully blockaded Charleston, for one couldn’t possibly see the distance of a quarter of a mile. “You may recollect that in the war of 1812, when the harbor of New Loudon, the mouth of which is not more than a mile across, was blockaded by the English squadron, under Ad miral Hardy, that Biddle, in the sloop-of-war Hornet, under sail, successftilly ran out through the blockading squadron, as close as they were anchored. JBb thick and dark was the night that the Hornet, as she passed the Admiral’s ship, coaid hear the sentries call the “All’s well,” and yet the vessels could not see each other. “The entrance into the outer roads of Tou lon Is not more than two miles across, yet the French line-of-battle-ships, with.their sails set, and as big as four story-houses, used to run the blockade of the English ships even when guarded by the siiarp eye of Nelson, and his active, vigilant subordinates.” How Rothschild Brought the “Old Lady of Threadneedle Street” to her Manners. An amusing adventure is related as having happened to the Bank of England, which haa committed the great disrespect of refusing to discount a bill of a large amount, drawn by Anselem Kothschild, of Frauklort, on Nathan Rothschild, of London. The bank had haugh tily replied “that they discounted only their own bills, and not those of private persons.” But they had to do with one stronger than the Bank. “Private persons!” exclaimed Nathan Rothschild, when they reported to him the fact. “Erivate pensons!” I will make these gentle men see what sort of private persons we are 1” Three weeks afterwards Nathan Rothschild— who had employed the interval in gathering all the £5 notes lie could procure in England and on the Continent—presented himself at the Bank at the opening of the office. He drew from his pocket-book a £5 note, and they naturally counted out five sovereigns, at the same time looking quite astonished that the Baron Rothschild should have personally troub led himself for such a trifle. The Baroii exam ined one by oue the coins, and put them into a little canvass bag, then drawing out another note, a third, a tenth, a hundredth, he never put pieces of gold into the bag without scrupu lously examining them, and in some instances trying them in the balances, as he said, “the law gave him the right to do.” The first pocket-book being emptied, and the first bag full, lie passed them to his clerk, and received a second, and thus continued till the close ol the Bank. The Baron ltad employed seven hours to change £21,000. But as he had also nine employes of his house engaged in the same manner, it resulted that the house of Roths child had drawn £210,000 in gold from the Bank, and that he had so occupied the tellers I that no other person could change a single note. Everything which bears the stamp of eccen tricity has always pleased the English. They were, therefore, very much amused at the lit tle pique of Baron Rothschild. They howev er laughed less when they saw him returh the next day at the opening of the bank, flanked by his nine clerks, and followed this time by many drays, destined to carry away the spe cie. They laughed no longer when the king of bankers said with ironic simplicity, “These gentlemen refuse to pay my lulls'; I have sworn not to keep theirs.” “At their leisure— only I notify them that I have enough to em ploy them for two months!” “For two months I” “Eleven millions in gold drawn from the Bank of England which they have never possessed!” The Bank took alarm.— There was something to be done. The next morning notice appeared in the journals that henceforth the Bank would pay Rothschild's bills the same as their own.—[Boston Post. Feigning Death.—Vo sooner did the prin ciple or life insurance begin to find favor than ingenious knaves found here a Held for their operations. The first known fraud occurred in I8d0. In that year in an abscure part of Lon don, lived a tall middle aged man with a young woman about twenty, reputed to be his daugh ter. They lived respectable though poorly and being very quiet, made few acquaintances, and no friends. Suddenly one night the woman was taken ill. A physician was called—thought it a slight attack, and left a prescription. But almost immediately afterwards the patient grew rapidly worse, and before the doctor could be called, died in great agony. He came, felt her pulse, placed his hand on her heart, shook his head, intimated all was over. She wTas buried in due form; the sorrowing father presently claimed and received a considerable sum which had heen insured on the life of his daughter, and disappeared. JNot very long thereafter an old gentleman and his daughter took possession of a respect able house in the neighborhood of Queen Square .where #iey soon attracted attention by receiving much company, keeping a generous table, and opening parlors to somewhat high play, at which it was afterwards remembered, that though the old man did not engage, no one ever won the hand of the young woman. But a stop was soon put to tiie amusements. The lady was taken suddenly ill, spasms of the heart soon convulsed Iter frame: several phys icians were hastily sent for, while the man hung over his daughter in apparant agony of spirit. One physician only arrived in time to see her imitate tiie appearance of death; the others,satisfied that tiie life had fledjtave their certificates and pocketed their fees. Tiie coffin was again put into the ground, and again the bereaved father received many thousand pounds from various underwriters, merchants and companies with w hom he insured Uie life of the departed. Again—this time a few years later—these two able actors appeared oil tiie same stage. This time tiie scene was at Liverpool; the man a ship owner of reputed wealth, with whom lived his niece, an unmarried lady, owning considerable lauded property in her own right. Tills was the report assiduously spread and generally believed in the Change, whe re he came to be much respected by those who dealt with him. His house was open, and his niece dispensed his hospitalities in a most graceful manner. Presently it was rumored that unsuccessful ventures had occurred, to Which he frankly owned, mentioning gradual ly that his affairs demanded ready money, which he would be forced to borrow. To do so and secure his neice's property, it became necessary that he should insure her life for about two thousand pounds. As this was not a singular transaction, he fouud no difficulty in getting underwriters. To save his credit he asked that the matter should be kept secret; and under the cover of this secret lie succeeded in effecting iusuance with no less than ten different merchants and companies in London and elsewhere. Once more tiie game was in his hands. In a few (Lays the. lady was taken ill. Tiie physician summoned found her in convulsions, administered a specific, was re called during the night, but came too late, as death had apparently set in, and in the morn ing all Liverpool knew that the merchant's nieoeldied suddenly. This time, no hade was made about the fu neral. Tiie lady almost lay in state for sever al days, and was visited by numliers: tiie phy sician certified that she died of a disease he could hardly name; the grave received tiie coffin, and tiie sorrowing uncle went about his affairs; he seemed to suffer much, careless about his business, and in no haste to claim the insurance, most of which stood for months after it becuuie due. lie had selected his men with care, and knew that they would pay. Fi nally, conceiving a dislike for a place where lie had suffered so much, he removed for a change of air, mid w as heard from no more. Some time after Ids final disappearance, suspi cious were aroused, and on comparing notes and descriptions, the life insurances were for ced to the conclusion that they had been vic timized by tin- shrewdest and most audacious of villains. He was never heard from after wards, and no doubt prudently enjoyed, in i some distant country, the fruits of his suc cessful swindle. It is difficult to account for the repeated success of so bold a fraud, and it is generally supposed that tiie young woman possessed the power of simulating death, of which we read remarkable cases lu the rec ords of various times.

ROASTING AND B AKING. But the novel—the peculiar feature oi the MODEL COOK—that which distinguishes it from all others— is the addition of a Ventilated Roasting Oven withil the body of the stove aud in front of the tire; so ar ranged that it can tensed separately for roasting, or (by the removal of a simple plate) in connection with the larger oven for baking.

THE DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND MAINE

Friday Morning December 5, 1862.

The Portland Daily Press has the largest regular circulation of any daily paper in the city. Demands or Union Men South. While much is said at the North of the dan ger,by radical measures, of alienating the “bor der states,” and while northern papers are la boring to prove that treason has effected no change in the rights of rebels in arms under the constitution, and that they, equally with loyal men, have a right to look for protection of property uuder that constitution which they have Ignored, and are laboring to destroy, it Is refreshing to hear occasionally from the real Union meu of the south, and find that they entertain views more in accordance with the suggestions of common sense. Among this class is Judge Geo. W. Lane, of Huntsville, Alabama, a Union refugee, who has recently written to the Secretary of War, remonstrating against the treatment tneeted out to the Union men of the South by our mil itary commanders,and tlirir mistaken leniency towards rebels. He says: ‘The guilty are ever tbe first to appeal to the law for mercy. Rebels were the first to sue to Gen. Mitchell for protection. Thosj who were Union at heart did not ask for that which was their due, amt thus ail the protect ing powers were granted to the disloyal.’ The policy recommended by Judge Lane is as follows: ‘X trust, sir, that the administration of which you are so powerful and important an officer, has another poliev for the future, for justice demands that another course should be pur sued. Justice demands that the officer now leading our troops to the re-occupation of Northern Alabama should announce before hand that the disloyal are guilty citizens, and are to be punished as such. The army of Gen. Rosecraus goes with power to push far into the interior of Alabama and Georgia, and it should be preceded by a proclamation from Gen. Rosecraus or the President, announcing that those guilty of aiding the reltellion by word or deed must keep beyond the lines ot the army or be punished. The oft-broken oatli of allegiance should no longer be a refuge aud protection to them.’ Census Statistics of the North and Sooth. The classification of the last census as made by Mr. Kennedy, shows that the area of the seceding states (not including Kentucky, Ten nessee and Missouri) is 681.948 square miles. The population of whites 4,622,681, slaves 8,245X91. The number of white males is 2, 877,639. The value of agricultural instruments manufactured iu these states in 1860 was $1, 664X43, while the state of New York that year made $3,429,087 In value. Their steam engines and machinery made, were valued at $4,760, 80S, while Massachusetts alone of the free states made $5,131,128 iu value. In cotton goods, they had 118 factories, with $8X73,921 capital, employing 166,920 spindles; while lit tle Rhode Island has 135 factories with $11X00, 000 invested, and employs 766,000. The Confederate stnes produced in I860, leather to the value of $2,955X56. and Masdfchu sett* produced $10X54,066, and New York $60,766,017. The value of real and personal estate of these states was $4,708X62X16, while the lour states of New York, Ohio, Pennsyl vania aud New Jersey reached the sum of $4, 921X57X61- The cash value of the farms of New York, Pennsylvania aud New Jersey ex ceed that of all the above states. While they have 50,194 acres of improvad land, they have 128X63X67 acres unimproved; aud It Is one of the cheering aspects of thts bloody aud costly war, that the “barbarism” that lias left tills land uu'inprovad, is to be crushed by the mil itary necststle* of this war.. Correspoiiuei ce of the Press. Letter from Washington. Washington, Dec. 1st, 1882. The handful of brave determined men who colonized New England have left their mark in many respects upon the whole country. The church, the school, institutions essentially free .or these inestimable things we are more indebted to them than we may have been ac customed to think. Nor least among the ben efits cenferred by them is that annual festival for which all the land is rising up to Mil them blessed. Thursday last, Thanksgiving was observed here very much after the time honored fashion. In thecamp the day was one of genial festiv ity, though many a poor fellow must have sad ly missed tlie paternal board, the brothers and sisters, the wile and little ones. One Color-el expended twelve hundred and fifty dollars In providing his boys a dinner; and another offi cer as I happened to know sharing in the general arrearage ol pay, pawned his gold watch rather than that the turkeys should full short. In the City the most noticeable events were banquets to the invalids in hospitals, a feast iu the 12 St. barracks where one thousand con trabands ate for the first time a Thanksgiving dinner in freedom, uud a sermon delivered by the Rev. Dr. Sunderland for which every lover of the country and of human rights has rea son to thank him. Friday and Saturday were busy days at tbe Capitol. While witiiout the workmeu were raising, one alter another, the beautiful Corinthian columns on the eastern front of the Senate extension, other arrange mehts were going forward within. On the for mer day Powers’ noble statue ot Franklin, re ceived from Italy a few weeks ago, was set upon its pedestal, and on the latter Walker’s painting “The Battle of Chepultepec” was placed in the grand space allbrded by the stairway to the gentlemeu’s gallery of the Sen ate while in a corresponding positiou in the other end of the Capitol Lent’s splendid paint ing “Westward the coarse of empire takes its way,” was for the first lime opened to the pub lic. At noon to-day both branches of Congress met iu their respective hails. A quorum was present iu both branches, though the Senate seemed somewhat fuller than the Bouse. Af ter the credeutiuls of the new Senators from New Jersey uud Rhode Island had been pre sented, and they had been sworn in, a recess was taken, iu the Senate, until one o’clock, during which time friendly greetings were ex changed among the members. At half past oue the President’s annual mes ■age was received, aud listened to with pro found attention by Members of Congress aud galleries crowded to overflowering. Its con tents need not be stated. It is enough to say that its views and recommendations are wor thy of a statesman and a patriot. Never before has an American Congress me^ under circumstances so calculated to task and try its utmost energies. It is to be hoped that it will draw no precedent from those tie lays which have heretofore been so common, but enter at once, and with all its might, upon the dispatch of business. The merest glance at the mighty Interests which must almost cer tainly be decided during this short session, is enough to excite, iu every reflecting mind, the gravest anxieties, l.et the true and loyal people of the country close up their ranks, aud support with heart and soul those whom they have set iu the fore front of the buttle, for so only can victory be secured, T. S. P. M———————————i—— Thanksgiving Services at Chestnut Street Church. Among the eloquent ami patriotic discourses delivered in our city on Thanksgiving day, was one by Rev. Win. R. Clark, pastor of the Chestnut Street Church. We have listened on various occasions with much interest to his pulpit and platform efforts, hilt seldom with more pleasure than on lids. The Methodist itinerant system has supplied this Church and congregation with pastors of first class talent, and without disparagement to previous incum bents we may safely say that tile parish is ex ceedingly fortunate in securing the services of a man so active, earnest and eloquent in ev erything pertaining to religious and patriotic effort. The sermon Thursday was based on 1st Tliess. 5th, 18th: “In everything give thanks,” 4c. Paul said this, writing from Athens.while the subject of ridicule, surrounded by dis couragements, hut with a noble purpose in view and faith in his success, he stood firmly against all opposers, possessing a grateful spir it and encouraging it i.: others. We need the same spirit and faith in the providential signi finance of present events. Private and public bereavements make us sad, but in all, if prop erly viewed, we may see more of sunshine than of shadow—the darkest clouds have a silver lining. The thunder slonn, though terriilc and destructive, purifies the atmosphere—the sur geon's scalpel though inflicting pain saves the lile ol the patient. We should l>e self-possess ed and grateful, though the times are dark and sorrowful,—Uod is in the whirlwind, and the right will prevail. Iii August lGGy, a Dutch man-of-war enter ed James river Virginia,with a cargo of slaves, for sale. In December Hi20, another vessel landed a colony of heroic, expatriated chris taiu men and women on Plymouth Rock. These were the germs of two antagonistic for ces as widely separated as the antipodes in their objects, aims and tendencies, and which have culminated in the gigantic rebellion and civil war, now desolating our fair land. The currents of national life they separately gener ated, could not flow on harmoniously forever. The principle of a free Democratic Republic with Christian institutions, now the glory of the Xorth, governed the noble spirits ill the Slay Flower,while Virginia took to her bosom a vile and loathsome raptile. Some northern States followed her example, but soon shook off the serpent as Paul did his at Melita, but ull over the sunny south he was seen fattening on the blood and sinews of sable victims till he became the terror and dread oftliis nation. For more than a quarter ol a century not a Presi dent was elected without a pledge that the ser pent should not be molested. Congressmen went into the halls of legislation with pistols, bludgeons and bowie knives to defend him. Only an occasional speech was made whose authors did not look anxiously at his flery eyes. Powerful corporations heard his hiss above the buzz of their spindles—ermlned judges shaped their logic by his slimy trailpmd demagogues their course by his dictation— speculators were dazzled by his glossy scales, —and while Southern doctors ofdlvinity threw over him the mantle of the patriarchs, north ern ones wrere blinded by “south-side views” of his graceful folds, and the religious press alternately flattered and terrified by his syren charms and forked tongue. At length it pro duced a nest of traitors and conspirators at the Capital, who, with the low, sneaking cunning and cowardice of their progenitor, deliberately plotted the overthrow of the Federal Govern ment. The serpent had coiled around our standard and was thrusting his deadly fangs in to the vitals of our eagle, when twenty mil lions of freemen rose as oue man to shake off the hellish viporand crush it beneath the tread of their armed battallions. This serpent should have been strangled In his early growth as our fathers designed and expected, but he was not, and now we have no alternative but to let him suck out our life blood and transform our glorious temple of liberty into a shrine in which he may be pet ted and worshipped by the present and coming generations; or, rise in our might and launch into him the thunderbolt of war. The strug gle is terrible, but the result not uncertain. In the spirit of sacrifice and effort made by our fathers, we should preserve what they have bequeathed us. Though It may be hard at times to see it, yet the object is worth the blood and tears, and treasure it will cost. Our worthy and honest Chief Magistrate has taken a stand that challenges our admiration, and will hencefolth shape our national course; freedom is to be nationalized and not slavery. The friends and apologists of the “sum of nil villinrles,”as American slavery was termed by John Wesley, have committed a fatal mistake by their persistent purpose to extend It in definitely. Coming generations will rejoice in our struggle and bless the memory of the pres ent loyal actors in this terrible tragedy. The Rev. gentleman will excuse us for this brief and imperfect report of his remarks, so replete throughout with soul-stirring pathos and hopeful encouragemeut to every loyal heart. Isolated must be the individuals who will not fully respond to the noble utterances put forth. Events are developing right re sults, and the Union with its untold blessings will be the heritage of our children. [For the Press.) From on l'. S. Engineer. St. Alotsuis Hospital, 1 Washington, D. C., Not. 80, 1802. Editors Press Here I am at last, after following McClellan to the Chicahomiuy, und back to Antietam, iu the above named hospit al. I have had some little experience, as an engineer, in building pontoon bridges, and other service pertaining to our department.— We did not expect to do much fighting, but our company had to support a battery at An tietam, with the "leaden rain and iron hail” coming down upou us briskly, but I escaped without a wound. Washiugtou is a perfect city of hospitals; around the suburbs, and in ev ery vacant lot, are hospitals. I understand that in one there are no less than 3000 soldiers 1 1 It seems hardly creditable that so many can be accommodated under one roof. The one I am in is about half a mile from the Capitol, and near the Douglas Hospital. It is a Cath olic one, und is carried on by the Government, and taken care of by the Sisters of Charity, who walk arouud amoug the sick with their black dresses and veils, and white bouuets, with a white bandage over the front part of their head, so that you do not see the color of their hair. Some of them are quite handsome, and when you address them you say Sister. The oue who takes care of me is called Sister Rosa. We celebrated Thanksgiving yesterday, having three good meals, with bread and meat for breakfast, bread and soup for dinner, and j bread and coffee, with a few oysters, tor sup per; and we dreamed of turkey, chickens, &c. I was able to make a visit to our 25th Maine regiment at Arlington Heights, to-day, and saw there a good many Portland boys I knew. They are in good health generally, but they know little of soldiering as yet. I think the -•'th will get rid of any lighting, as they will probably be permanently assigned to their pres ent position during their term of service; but they will have rather a cold time of it iu guarding Long Bridge. They are busily at work now, building log-houses for barracks. Ill regard to the relative merits of McClellan and Burnside, the opinion is about equally di vided among the officers and men. Some go in for Mac, while others place more confidence in Burnside. I am. llurnside. I expect that many like the change. Poor Julian Day, (of Portland) of our corps, died at Warrcnton. He ought to have been discharged long ago. lie died in the Unitari an church there, which was fitted up as ahos j pital. He had all that he could have under the circumstances. lie was one of our best I boys, beloved by all the corps. Peace to his ashes. Mixer.

The Maine Eighth—Recruits—Compliment ed—New rifles—Negro regiment a perfect success. Camp of 8th Maine Yols., Beaufort, S. C., Nov. 27. Messrs. Editors:—We have been greeted with the arrival of three parties of recruits for our regiment lately. Splendid looking fel lows, and nearly every one of them In good health. They come to us in the most favora ble time for themselv.es. They find our regi ment in flue condition, splendidly located, with a camp which Gen. Braunan last Sun day said “hud no equal in this Department.” Our meu are living well, have many comforts and conveniences that formerly we could not get, and our duty is pleasant und not severe, j Last year we did much hard,excessive duty’. Now we reap the reward in being put to more agreeable employment. We have just drawn new rifles. A portion of them are of the Whitney pattern, with sword Iptyouets. I tested one of them, and found its accuracy and range surprising. At one hundred yards it hit accurately; at seven hundred it curried splendidly; and then, again elevating the range, at upwards of a half mHe the very first shot w as a successful one. The gun is light und small. Our Enfield and Springfield rifle muskets are very effective weapons. Gen. Saxton, military Governor, pronounces the 8th Maine the best regiment in the Department. He is a veteran Regular officer, and his opinion is worth having. Sev eral of our recruits have been appointed ser geants and corporals already. Capt. McAr thur returns to Portland immediately on re cruiting service. The negro regiment is a decided success. Gen. Saxton estimates the amount of proper ty it has already captured from the enemy its sufficient to pay all its expenses for one year. It is officered by whites. About a dozen of its officers were taken from enlisted men of the 8th Maine. They now hold the rank and pay of Captains and Lieutenants. Their last expedition was to Doboy river, Ga., where, af ter a sharp skirmish with the enemy, in which the blacks fought well, they captured and brought away two cargoes of seasoned sawed lumber. While the blacks have shown no dis- position to be bloodthirsty, veteran officers have been surprised at their coolness and bravery under fire in both of these expedi tions. Very respectfully, Henry Boynton, Captain Co. D. The New South, a paper published at Port Boyal under the auspices of the federal army at that place, in a brief article on the “removal of McClellan,” says: The most important item which reaches us in our budget of new s from the North is the re moval ol Maj. Gen. Geo. B. McClellan, from the command ol the army of the Potomac. Alter along trial the judgement has at last come like the writing on the wall, “Mene, me- ne, tekel upharsin.” It is needless to say that i this news is received with very different feel ings by the army aud people at'large—still the most stauuch adherents und supporters of Geu. 1 McClellan cannot but feel that the Adminis tration w aiied a long, very long time, for some thing to be accomplished; aud the alternative was at last presented of a change or a discon tinuance of the war. No General in history ever assumed eonunand of so large and so well appointed an army under brighter auspices than did Gen. McClellan. He was lauded to the skies by the entire press and possessed the confidence and sympathy of the whole people, even before he had drawn his sword or assum ed his rank. Having failed to fulldll all the bright hopes entertained of him, the time has come when his firmest friends—without abut- j ing a jot of their confidence or esteem—can I yield to what must appear to every patriot the best interests of the country. We cannot forget that Gen’l McClellan was i made Coinmander-in-Chicf of the army almost at the beginning of the war, when the need of tile country was calling peaceful and useful citizens from their quiet avocations into the ranks. Our army composed of this material, was at that time without order or discipline. His remarkable skill and energy quickly turn ed this crude material into well drilled and effective soldiery,and for this the country owes I him a debt of gratitude. ORIGINAL AND SELECTED.

It is high time a relbrni should commence. Newman of the Hallowell Gazette sug. gests that the abolition of slavery at the South “would put back civilization for centuries, and inaugurate of system of rapine and murder at which humanity would shed bitter ters of an guish.” No doubt it would, the kind ot civil zation of which he is the fitting type. A dispatch from Washington to a New York paper, dated Dec. 1, says that the Presi dent, the War Department and Gen. Burnside are united in the opinion that the army must not go into winter quarters, and also that the delay in moving is only with the view of giv ing overpowering force to Ihe opening of the campaign. BY TELEGRAPH -TO THE EVE.\I.\G PAPERS.

From the Army—Bumora of an Early Move ment Enlargement of Gen. Burnside’s Bowers—Change of Position by the Hebei Forces. New Yoke, Dec. 4. The Herald's Washington dispatch contains the following: Everything remains perfectly quiet, and there is no prospect of au immediate move ment. The rebels have about fifty batteries, large and small, sume of them mounting heavy guus, hearing ou the uo(tk hanks of the Kappukau liock. It is said that our pontoon bridges, ou being carried to the posiliou where they are to be used, passed nearly the whole distance along the river roads in plain sight of the enemy, and this fact induced the belief that a desper ate light will ensue ou au attempt ou our part to cross the river. Yesterday Lieut. Col. Myers, Assistant Chief Quartermaster, visited several corps to inspect the amount and condition of supplies. All were lound abundantly supplied w nil good ra tions. A large amount of fresh vegetables have been oruered lor Gens. Sumner’s aud Frank lin's old corps, the scurvy having made iu ap pearance among them. A Falmouth letter of the 2d says there are rumors aud other indications of au early movement. If made it will probably be a mere change ol position, though involving, perhaps, a considerable engagement. The ob stacles to a general aud final advance of the army still exist. A special dispatch states that the 8th Mas sachusetts Battery, from Boston, numbering 18o men, uud commanded by Capt. E. ii. Cook, w ere mustered out of service yesterday. The Times' dispatch contains the following items: Gen. Hooker has solicited from Secre tary Stanton a command in his grand division lor Gcu. Slone. Xu reply the application was endorsed. Xt is now grunted that all the stories to the effect that Hie army of the X’olomac will go into winter quarters are sheer fabrications. Xt is proper to state tiiat Gen. Burnside never possessed tiie confidence of the government more than at present, aud this confidence has resulted iu a very great increase of his powers and iris liberation lrom many of the restrainu under w hich he lias labored. Our advices from Falmouth and Fredericks burg confirm the iiilbrmutiou lately received that Gen. Bee is removing a large portion of his forces southward, aud concentrating them iu such a maimer as to he able to march eitiier to the relief of Kichmoud in case of an attack in the fiauk, or to act as a reserve iu case of ussault ou Fredericksburg. News from the South. Fortress M ox roe, Dec. 2. Gen. D. R. Jones is sick iu Riehmoml, uud not expected to live. F. li. Hatch, formerly Confederute Collector at New Orleans, has opened a collection office at PouehatouD, uud is doing a regular busi ness. The steamer Kilki was run into and sunk oil' the Bahamas recently. She was built iu Scotland lor miming the blockade. The Raleigh (N. C.) Progress of the 27th ult., says that iluj. Geu. G. VV. Smith is iu eo uuiuud of sufficieut force at Petersburg to protect an approach to Richmond iu that di rection. The Richmond Examiner of the 29th ult., says the next session of the Confederate Con gress will meet at Richmond on the second Monday of January. The Charleston Courier of the 25th says the enemy have Horn ten to tilteen wooden vessels lying iu sight of that city, where they have been allowed to lay fur mouths, notwithstand ing our haviug means for reaching uud sinking every one ol them with perfect safety to our selves. Mr. Muliory is waiting for all of Mr. Lincoln’s ironsides to he tluished. Supplementary Message Expected. New York, Dee. 4. The Times’ Washington dispatch says the opinion seems to gain grouud that the Presi dent designs sending to Congress a supple mentary message, when it shall he ready to proceed to business, and that there are many reasons why such a communication can be made more satisfactorily at that period than at present. Becotinoisance from Harper’s Perry. New York, Dec. 4. The Herald has the following: Harper's Ferry, Dec. 3.—A recomioisanca in force was led from Bolivar Heights about H o'clock yesterday morning by Gen. Geary. They came upon a party ol guerillas near Charlestown. The rebels tied hut were over taken by our cavalry and one of them killed and liis horse taken. Washington Humors. New York, Dec. 4.

MATTERS ABOUT TOWN. Municipal Court—Dec. 4. John Powell, a lad of twelve or fourteen years of age, was brought up for the fowl of fense of purloining three hens, the property of William Pittee, Jr. The evidence in the case hardly sustained the complaint, and the Re corder gave Powell the benefit of the doubt, and discharged him. McCobb Kingsbury for the defence. Martha A. Mayo was convicted of the lar ceny of two [sounds of butter from the store of Elisha P. Nason on Washington street. Martha went into the store and purchased half a pound of butter, and while Nason's atten tion was attracted by other customers, she “hooked” two pounds extra. For this the Recorder sentenced her to thirty days in the county jail. This case would not have been brought be fore the Court but for the impudence of Mrs. Mayo. After Nason )iad found that she had stolen the butter, he sent her a note stating that she had better return it. For this he re ceived abuse from her; and a lawyer was found who brought an action against him for slan der, in consequence of sending the note to Mrs. M., and his stock was attached to the value of $100. The lawyer reduced his de mand to $50; then to $25; and finally offered to take $5! Nason refused to pay any amount whatever, and took out a warrant against the woman. Margaret J. Cunningham, for the larceny of a shawl from Mrs. McAlmon, as mentioned in yesterday’s Press, was sentenced to two months imprisonment in the county jail. Mechanic Association Debate.—The Library room was crowded last eveuing to listeu to the debate upou the President's proc lamation. The measure was supported by Messrs. Beal, Walton, Foster and Blanchard, and opposed by Messrs. Emery and Kimball. We have copious notes of the debate which we may publish to-morrow. When the hour for adjournment arrived, Mr. Emery move to lay the question on the table, to be taken up for discussion at the next meeting, expressing a desire to reply to the remarks of Messrs. Foster and Blanchard. Mr. Plummer thought time enough had been spent in discussing this subject. There were but five mouths al lowed for these meetings for debate, and one fifth of that time had been taken up with this debate. He wanted some other questions brought forward. Mr. Foster hoped il any gentleman wished to speak upon the subject an opportunity would be given him. The Association voted to lay the resolve upon the table to be taken up next Thursday evening. Androscoggin Railroad.—A meeting of the first and second mortgage bondholders of the Androscoggin Railroad was held yester day, and it was voted to accept the report of the committee appointed to see what arrang20 offered at any bank in this city on and alter Monday next. »-No business was transacted in the U. S. District Court yesterday. The Court opens at 11 o’clock to-day, at which time the docket •'will be called. That 30,000.”—The thirty thousand rebels taken piisoners at the light at Black Water, as telegraphed to the evening papers Wednesday, turns out as we expected—it was 30! The manuscript, as put into the hands of the Boston operator, read “30 odd,” and he telegraphed it 30,000, and repeated it upon be ing asked if the number was correct. cr- The Bangor Whig learns that is pro posed to start a printing office at Pensacola, where many of our troops are stationed. Lt. Warren C. Plummer, of the 15th Maine Regi ment is to be editor of the paper which it is proposed to publish. Lieut. Plummer was formerly connected with the Aroostook Pion eer. tr The London papers which have been most abusive of the American government, the most in sympathy with the south, the loud est to denounce the war, am^foremost to pre dict its total failure, such as the Times, for ex ample, are now the most denunciatory of the removal of McClellan, and the most forward forward to regard it as the crowning disgrace of the government. Such developments are calculated to deepen the conviction of loyal men that the removal was mude none too soon. w- It seems to us the conductor of the Ilome Journal at Gardiner is needlessly sensi tive in relation to Gen. McClellan—so sensi* tive that he flares up at a mere pleasantly. e have no doubt Gen. McClellan smiled him self at the boquet rndtto of his lady friend, which referred to his “slowness to anger,” and his being “greater than he who taketh a city.” As Gen. McClellan had taken no cities, we think the motto in exceeding bad taste, and for the very reason that it would suggest what was not intended! BY TELEGRAPH. TO THE Portland Daily Press.

Checks Burnside Busleed Phillips Drafting in Boston on Monday Mercan tile Library Association—Modem Im provements—Napoleonic willow—Revenue. Boston, Dec. 3d, 1862. To the Editors of the Daily Press: Ofcpper currency has obviously drelined, since the Journal and some other dailies have risen in price to a postage stamp each. In other wortls, we can all make even change now W’itli a red stamp, instead of having to wait to receive an old, dull cent, or a dingy blue stamp in exchange. The reason that we are all conlined to the use of postage stamps, in stead of postal currency, for making change in this city, probably is the texture of the pa l>er of which the 10 and 23 cent chocks are made. The checks are made on such flimsy paper that, after passing through a week’s ser vice, they resemble in appearance a piece of parchment soaked in acid; they are yellowish brown, crumpled and torn at the edges. So that one feels pretty sure that the checks of the present issue must soon become one of the things of the past, and each tradesman seems to be hoarding up the few he can get hold olj as curiosities to hand down to his children.— In future centuries this, which we hoped should be called the second cycle of the gold en age, will be termed the age of postage stamps and cobweb checks. Last night there was considerable excite ment in ceratin quarters, because of the ru mor in the “World,'’ that Burnside had been dismissed. Men in the basement of the Old State House said, “we told you so, they are making way for ‘J. C. F.,' Burnside was only a make-weight for the time being,’’ A.c. Ac. But this morning there is great confidence ex pressed everywhere that the “World.” for the thousandth time, is mistaken, and that “the source not likely to be deceived,” was sold by somebody. But we shall see. Bustced gave a splendid lecture at Tremont Temple last night. It was a production rel ished highly by those who admire quiet disser tation instead of spread eagle splurge. Ilis subject was “Knowledge'! where does it come from, and what is it good for?” He deemed the press to be “more than a common carrier of news; it is the great public mind.” Phil lips speaks next week. Of course it will be upon the last acts of the Administration. The great wheel at Faueuil Hall will begin to revolve again on Monday the 8th instant.— Boston has been rather behindhand in furnish ing nine months men for the war. It is not pleasant to think of conscription within a mile of the State House; within cannon-shot of Bunker Hill. Probably the drafting commis sioner will go through the force of giving the wheel a twirl, taking out a single name, and announcing that enlistments can go on till the next day. Nearly five hundred more are to go from this city. There has been a good deal of trouble of late in the Mercantile Library Association of Boston. Some fault has been found with the President and a couple of his friends, on ac count of official mismanagement. Last even ing he was requested, by a very unanimous vote, to resign his office “within live minutes.’ He did so; and we hope, for the sake of the usefulness of the Society, that it will now move along quietly. Somehow or other the M. L. Association in Portland never gets into any troubre at all. What a maguifleent thing modern improve ment of all old places is! If you wish to see this finely exemplified, w alk into the old grave yard, on Charter and null streets, and view the ofleets of the labors of the improver* of to-day. The old burying ground, which, with its narrow, crooked paths, was one of the sole relics of the Trimountaiu times, has been dug and spuded, and untwisted, till the straighten ed lines of humble slate head-stones look like the rows in a vegetable garden. Why in the world could not this one poor spot, hallowed in the seventeenth century, have been kept out of the hands of the modernists? Were they ashamed ot the lack of order and ta«te evinced by the men of 1033? Or was there some other cause which served to render the old landmarks and old wayc distasteful to the present generation I imagine the reason to have been this: the old paths were not quite wide enough for female fashions in 1802, and, accepting this us the solution, we see at once what is meant by the ofl-used phrase, “Skirts of modern civilization. In the corner of the yard there is a thrifty young w illow which was brought from the former grave of the Kmpcror Na|ioleon. The dry leaves rustle to-day on its waving branch es, just as the leaves of the parent tree, damp with the sea-mists of the island, rustled in the wind of St. Helena, during the Emperor’s exile. There is something profoundly catholic in this diffusion of historical trees, and one cannot help ga -.ing at a tree like this with more than ordinary interest. This is ow ing to the fact that, to their interest as relics, as remembran cers,is added life. Some time shall wish to speak of the old elm on the Common, but now, as I commenced to write about the rage for mod ern improvements, let me quote from a plac ard lately posted in Cambridge: “For sale. The wood and timber of the old house near the Common, reserving the brieks and iron, Ac.’ Can you realize that they thus talk to-day of the old mansion near the elm under which Washington first drew his sword as Command er-in-chief? They probably wished to reserve the bricks as mementoes 1 How very skillfully the revenue tax is ar j ranged. The simple revenue from the tele graph and express offices in this city since Monday last is double the amount estimated. And yet this money comes from those who hardly know the difference between the amount in the cash-box on Saturday last and today. Those who complain of the law are, in most cases, those who will not be obliged to pay a single cent to the government. Just as in England, "those who prate most largely against the income tax are those who don’t own a halfpenny when night comes.” I wanted to speak of the “New' Aquarial Gardens,” and of Booth, but shall have to defer it to another time.

POE T R Y. GONE. The following beautiful hymn by Whittier, wa* read at the funeral of Mrs. J. Jewett, and her friends will see how peculiarly appropriate were the sentiments, not only as to her char acter and voice j but also as to the season and manner of her death: we give it with the change of one word relating to the age. Another hand is beckoning us, Another call is given; And glows once more with angel steps, The path which reaches Heaven. Our (true) and gentle friend w hose smile Made brighter summer hours, Amid the frosts of autumu time Has lelt us with the flowers. No paling of the cheek of bloom Forewarned us of decay; No shadow from the silent land. Fell round our sister’s way. The light of her (true) life went down. As sinks behind the hill The glory of a setting star— Clear, suddeuly, and still. >s pure and swe« t, her fair brow seemed Eternal as the sky; And like the brook’s low song, her voice— A sound which could not die. And ha’f we deemed she needed not The changing of her sphere, To give to Heaven a shining one, Who walked an angel here. The blessing ofherquiet life Fell on 11s like the dew; And good thoughts.where her footsteps pressed Like fairy blossoms grow. Sweet promptings unto kindest deeds Were in her very look; We read her fece, as one who reads A true and holy book: The measure of a blessed hymn, To which our hearts could move; The breathing of an inward psalm, A canticle of lot e. We miss her in the place of prayer, And by the hearth lire bright; We pamo beside her door to hear Once more her sweet “Oood night!” There seems a shadow on the day, Her smile no longer cheers; A dimness on the stars of night, Like eyes that look through tears. Alone unto our Father’s will One thought hath reconciled; That He whose love exceedethours Hath taken home his child. Fold her, Oh Father! in thine arms, And let her henceforth be A messenger of love between Oar human hearts and thee. Still let her mild rebuking stand Between us and the wrong; And her dear memory serve to make Oar faith in goodness strong. And grant that she who, trembling, here Distrusted all her powers, May welcome to her holier Lome Tbe well-beloved of ours. Statement OF THE CONDITION Holyoke Mutual Fire Ins.

Howes’ Cough Pill*, By the concurrent testimony of many sufferers, th fact has been established, that tor the cure of DlARRHtEA OR DYSENTERY In persons of all ages, no medicine has ever come to the knowledge of the public, that so effectually does it work and at the same time leaves the bowels in an active, healthy condition, as CLEM S SUMMER CURE. That for Children Cutting Teeth, if troubled with Diarrhoea or any irregu ai ities of the bowels, all oth er remedies are insignificant, as compared with CLEM'S SUMMER CURE. That for Children troubled with Canker in mouth or stomach, or mothers suffering from nursing sore mouth, a safe and speedy cure is eflectcd by the use of CLEM'S SUMMER CURE. That for Coughs, Hoarseness and Bronchial affect ions, there is no remedy extant that so universally affords relief as HOWES' COUGH TILLS. That for a Tightness or Wheezing in the Chest Tains in the side, or a long standing Hack, the best I remedy is HOWE'S COUGH TILLS. That a* an expectorant and ameliorating agent in oases of Phthisic, Whooping Cough, ami Confirmed Consumption, the public ha\e already rendered their united verdict iu favor of HOWES’ COUGH TILLS. CLEM'S SUMMER CURE is a pleasant.agreeable decoction of Roots and Barks, and contains not a particle of Opium ok Duuo of any sort. It always does good, and never does harm.

POOR RICHARD'S EYE 8r EAR WATER l !\JO Organs of the human system are more irnpor taut to health aud comfort than the Eye and Ear, and yet none are less understood or more neg lected. They seem to pass even common observation, and yet every part of the body is dependent upon them for life aud health. Poor Richard's Eye and Ear Water Is a new and rare discovery, which is most wonder ful iu Its operations, putting to blush the old systems of treatment, which have quite as often done harm as good. Below we give the certificate of Rev. p. 8. Henson, Pastor of the Broad Street Baptist Church, Philadelphia. If any one has doubts as to the value of this remedy, they may learn more of its practical value by addressing a note of inquiry to Mr. II. Philadelphia. Oct. IT, 1862. From injuries received in my right eye, when a boy, a chronic inflammation had been produced, in consequence of which 1 suffered constant martyr dom. Every momeut of my waking life was embit tered, and 1 was frequently unable to sleep at night. A variety of remedies had been resorted to with out success, and 1 entertained the purpose, as a last resort, of having the ball taken out of its socket, in the hope of thus finding relief. In the meantime, most providentially, I noticed one day iu a shop window a bottle of POOR RICH ARD’S EVE WATER. I had never heard ol it be fore, but determined to try it, amt did, with the most delightful results. Iu a very few days the paiufal irritation was removed; I could bear the strougest light, aud went forth to the enjoyment of a new lifa. I now keep a bottle of it always in the house, aud if my eye seems at all disposed to annoy me, I give It a dose, and that is an end of it. I would not be with out it for any amount of money. 1 take occasion to sav, farther, that my wife used to suffer severely at times from protracted pain iu and over her eyes And she has found Poor Richard's Eye Water a sov ereign specific in her case, giving her almost instant relief. Orateful to God for the benefit that I have personally received, I cannot but commend the prep aration to all who have been sufferers like myself. P. 8. HENSON, Pastor of Broad Street Baptist Church.
