HAMILTON.
Aut Cesar. Gut gluLlus,


The people of Massachusetts have harmOniged
with the general Government in pronouncing DR..
Mann's State Patient unfit for service. And as the
general had made up his mind to be " aut Caesar,
aut nullus"thati is to say, for the benefit Of those
who don't understand .atin--either more or less
than the had left him, he may as well conclude
to put up with the latter part of the alternative.
Fit or not ft'' therefore il is the duty OF SOL
der to obey the orders of bis superors." This is
now an extreme case past the help of medicine,
nor 90 we know whether at this period it would
do any good to get rid Of the DOCTOR for as the po-
ct says,
For when man is uery sick indeed
Zen aismssisg The doctor don't always siiccee d.
TOBY.
CGpe-Ehsubeth has d one acelE-Saith the Eastern
Argus. Cape Elizabeth had given clear nett
democratic gain of one cote. Seldom have we seen
the Argus reduced SO low. The article noticing
the result the election about Portland was in the
o,oest nofe of the gamut, pitched upon The fGttest
key in the whole democratic scale. II was all entire
octave below its usual concert pitch. For the first
tshC eheC lnC ecpoidtioH DuSIHtss WAS over Lie tE-
gus was absolutely belosc par The snodesty with
which the notice of the votes was inserted was also
gratifying to every
FRIEND OF MODEST MERIT.
The only federal deficiency of any Importance,
that existed in any town in this county, occurred
in Gorham. Gorham, of all places If the Argus
had received the return it would not have been
reduced to say that Cape Elizabeth had done
WELL" The deficiency occasions no imputation
upon those who did perform their duty. Upon the
two hundred that did yote perhaps rather reflects
the more honour. But what shall we say of the
other Fifty? WORD TO THE WISE.
In the paper before the election the Argus an
nounced that its intelligence from every part OF
| the state" was such as to give them the utmost
assurance OF succsss'-We simply stated that on, ;
from sereral quarters was satisfactory Let the pub
lis Judge who intends 10 deserve their confidence.
We suspect from all appearances that consid-
cradle portion of the democratic voters of this
state. both in Maine and Massachusetts, live on
islands" and IN the outskirts Of towns'-so that
the rain that was beneficial to Brooks, kept them
from the polls. There certain gentlemen that,
