DIR CONVENTIONS

On "Wednesday next, the first day of August, the
Wings of Lincoln County, and sCong essional Dis
trct, will hold their conventions at Wiscasset for the
nomination of Senators, Member Of Congress-, and
County Treasurer.
The importance Of full representation from eve
ry town in the County and District we suppose need
hardly to be named. he peculiar situation which
Maine now occupies, and the influence which, in the
nature of thrgs she must exert, upon the dcstinies
of the Wing cause throughout the whole country,
will we trust be borne in mind by every patriotic
wing, and induce the part of our friends through
out the County, such action. and the adoption of
such measures, as shall seem best calculated to sub
sere the great interests of the Nations Cause.
We hope on Wednesday next to see every town
fully and fairly represented in the convention and
we trust every delegate will come under Instructions
to yield MI local and sectional prejudices, for the
GOOD Of THE WHOLE, and with determination TO
be governed by the judicous, and expressed will of
tho entire convention SO far at least as concerns the
selection Of Candidates

March of Inrention- Steam Masic.-A-
mongst the numerous inventions which al
most daily claim share ofpublic attention,
we have to notice that of steam organ,
invented and adapted to the "Tyne" loco
motive engine, the property ofthe Newcas-
tie and Carlisle Railway Company, by Rev.
James Birkett, of Ovingham. As far as
we are able to judge, this instrument bears
the greatest resemblance to the organ. 1t
consists ofeight pipes turned to compass,
what is termed by musicians, an octave, but
without any intervening tones or semltones.
This is the first attempt to adapt a musical
instrument to the steam-engine capable of
producing tune, and. though not SO per-
feet as to admit of all the pleasing variety
and combination of sound as the instrument
to which we Rave compared it, there is no
doubt but very considerable Improvements
will be made IN this steam musical instru-
ment by the inventor, who is skilful mu-
stefan as we'll as an ingenious mechanic.
We understand that some important altera-
tons are at present in progress, and intend
ed TO be completed previous to the grand
opening of the railway on the 18th inst
Tyne Mercury.

STRONG REASONS.

The loco-focos give the following very conclusive
reasons, why John Fairfield should he elected Gov
ernor of this State. ls that he formerly kept a
small shop somewhere in York County and failed in
business. I'd he was once skipper ofa small coast
er, and got shpwrecked. These are mighty rem
sons. truly but who knows but he might navigate
the ship of State much the same way'--At any rate
while we have SO good master as Edward Ken.
has proved himself during the last voyage we think
it would be the height of imprndence, to exchange
for one of so doubtful, character

LOUISIANA.

BRILLIANT SUCCESS. The most cheering sue
cess seems TO have attended the efforts of the
Wings of Louisiana. They have beaten the enemy
completely, and taken possession of the field he
result SO far,shows Wing gain in the State of four
teen hundred and eighy-seren votes!-a gain in the
FIRST congressional District, of seven hundred and
thtrtyUe potes "a gain in the second district (Gen
RlPey's) Of ten hundred and ninety-sepen votes =
and wing member of Congress from the third
District without opposition! The wings have also
majorities in The House and Senate and are sure of
majority on joint ballot of Is, in an assembly Of
s1ty-seven The wing maj. for Governor, will be
1000 Thus ends the brilliant achievement of the
wings of Louisiana against such fearful odds, and at
time when Giro umstances were peculiarly discour-
aging,
The loco-foco candidate for Gov was for ten
years mayor ofNew Orleans. and it was confidently
expected, in consequence of his connexions there,
and greet official influence, that he would receive
majority in the city of from 600 to 500 instead Of
which he received only the small maj Of votes.
And that only from the circumstances above named,
as the wing ticket for Congress. has received raj
in the city of $50. 7 he office-hoders 70 1ght with
Characteristic desperation, and made every effort to
Brighten and terrify their hirelings into the traces.
The Collector of Customs so far as to threaten
to deprive any of his underlngs of their office, who
should dare to vote for the Wing ticket But for alt
that the wings cared not fg-tbey did their duty.
and the result is most cheering the prospects of the
cause. Let it be kept in remembrance by tho
wings of the nation, and stimulate those of like faith
in every section, until the campaign a,ispicious
y commenced, shall be gloriousy terminated.
Especially, be it remembered by the Wings Of
Maine.

ANOTHER SPECIMEN. when Mr.. dams

ANOTHER when Mr. Adams
was President, the State Department was
violently denounced by the whole Jackson
press for purchasing single portrait ofthe
sainted WASHINGTON. Recently the
public money has been squandered in pur-
chasing prints of Gen. Jackson and Martin
Van Buren, for every room IN each and all
the Departments ofthe Government.
This is another example not SO much of
the economy as of the hypocracy OF the

TELEGRAPH.


The following from the Kennebec Jour
nal, of Mr. Fairfield in the duel affair, we
commend to the notice of our readers =
1.-The Democrats were anxious to have the
Report printed that it might go before the
people. This was the great object OF the
Investigation. In order to get at the print
ing, they had to move to lay the Report on
the table-a motion which cut off all the
caviing motions and special pleas of the
federal members. The motion made was
two-fold list to lay on the table, Cd, TO
print. Upon the first clause, MIR Fairfield
did not vote; upon the second he voted
YEA; and thus accomplished the great OBJ
iect of placing the facts in the possession
of his constituents and of the people. Age.
All! here we have it. The GREAT Or
JEcT" "the report printed that ii might go
bGore the people" For this purpose they
got report made up so unfair that three of
the committee would moi sign it, report
which they dare not submit to the ac-
ton of the House lest it should be rejec-
ted "Upon the. first clause" / e. TO lay
on the table, Mr. Fairfield was absent. Up
the second ''to print" the garbled report,
Mr. Fairfield was present, the Age tells us,
and voted yea, ssthus accomplishing the
great object" These votes must have fol-
lowed each Immediately How happens it
that Mr. Fairfield and his Van Buren, asso-
cates we're all so mysteriously absent one
momeut, and the next all their places when
the "great object" was to be accomplished.
This playing boo-peep is much more in the
character of harlequin than dignihed
member of Congress-; more like the trick
of mountebank than bold investigator
into an alleged conspiracy; character
which Mr. Fairfield first attempted to as
sumo. Mr. F's sudden temperance when
the vote was taken to print the report, re-
minds us of the anecdote we have seen of
a German preacher, who in reading the
text Ga little while and you shall not see
me, and little while and you shall see me"
attempted to suit the action to the word as
he said {" little while you shall no see me-
he squatted behind the pulpit out Of sight,
and then popping his head up, he said "a
little while you shall see me.
We could not see Mr. Fairfield when
Ingraham's report was laid on the table,
but he suddenly pops his head up from un-
der his desk or appears from behind the
door as soon as the motion is made to
print.
We notice in the proceedings of the last
days of the session that Mr. Wise attempted
to call this Dael Report, that the House
might set on it. Did Mr. Fairfield then aid
him in getting his trial before the House'
Was he ready TO aid then in ''expeling the
murderers of Cilley1" Not he. Mr. Fair
field acted "you shall no see me again, and
and Mr. Wise demanded the action of the
House in vain.

A SENSIBLE WOMAN A capital story
is told in the New York Gazette, of Buck
eye lady who knew how to place a proper
estimate upon the Loco-focos. 1t seems
that she was the landlady of public house
in Ohio, where Southern gentleman hap
pened to stop. Seeing that she was very
buxom body, and exceedingl y good looking,
he took occasion to compliment her upon
o,oning so fine negro, as she seemed to
possess in the person of a Swapping black
fellow, who was waiting upon the compa-
n.y. Yes, sir says she, he is an excel
lent husband!' The devil he is, says our
traveller. tits very strange that woman
of your appearance could SO degrade her,
self as to marry black man., WELL re-
plies the landlady, 1T is bad business, to
be sure; but when | think of my sisters
lot, am quite contented with my own.

"'Tis quite difference you see,

Great Celebration at Lc,cistown I'VE

German Farmers, commonly termed "bear-

celebration before--.but who turned out,
Notwithstanding it was in the midst of their
