Another lie nailed,

The subjoined paragraph from the Bos-
TON PosP and the accompanying letter
from GEN. MILLER, are sufficiently explicit
without remark from US. 1t is gratifying
to the friends of the country, to see all such
ISLANDERS, refuted as soon as fabricated.
"GEN. MILLER. who lately wrote a letter
to the Hon Mr.. Webster, bolstering ND
Gen. Harrison's military character, told a
different story at Hancock, N. H. where
the people gave him public dinner, direct
ly after the war. In his speech on that
occasion, Gen. Miller, after complime nting
most Of the prominent officers of the army,
said, as for Gen. Harrison, he should mt
speak Of him. as he did not consider him
as possessing either the courage or abili-
ties necessary for good officer. This
can be proved by unimpeachable evidence,
if Gen. Miller or his friends deny it.

his Secretary's plan for Standing Army.
A standing Army was also favorite with
the old Federalists, because it tended to
the increase of power in the hands o. the
President. A direct tax was a federal
measure. The present dominant party.
are for reducing the Tariff and thus throw
the Government upon direct tax to meet
its necessary expenses. More; Mr. Rhett
OF South Carolina, said to George Evans
OF this State, att the last Congress, that he
must come to Washington next winter
prepared to fight direct Tax, and de-.
clared to him that il no other administfa-
ton man would do it, he should himself
offer bill laying a direct tax. What
reason then is there, | ask every candid
man, for stamping wings, Federalists 2
Have | not shown that in this State, the
Federal leaders are with the administra-
ton, and that their old odious measures
are the measures of this same administra-
ton 1t is too plain that Mr.. Sewall could
not prove his assertion and that he wisely,
did not attempt it. Mr.. Sewall in the
course of his remarks, stated that the
wings were in favour Of saddling the State
debts upon the general government, now
your Mr. Sewall pays but poor compii.
ment to the people in making such an as
sertjon. 1t is unfounded, defy him or
any other man to prove it. defy him to
produce any principle put forth, any meas
ure proposed, any vote given by the wings,
from which with the most liberal construc-
ton he can deduee an argument to sustain
his assertion. So with his assertion that
the wings and aboIitionists are one. It
would be pleasing to me to follow your
orator father, but should trespass upon
your columns. | would however say that
when Mr.. Sewall lectures again it would
be well for him to prove what be asserts.

New Jersey Coming!

The People of New Jersey are rising en-
masse A great and glorious meeting of
the people OF that gallant State has been
held at Trenton, on which occasion vast
multitudes from all parts of the State were
present, and nominated by reclamation,
the same list as last year, for Governor,
members of Congress, &c. The BROAD
Sear' Of New Jersey, will be so strongly
impressed this time, as to defy and annihil-
ate all tyrants. Among the Resolutions,
we find the following, which contains a
fine compliment to our talented and indus
trious member ofCongress, Mr.. RANDALL.
"Resolued, That the country is indie bted
to the Honorable Willard Fillmore, Tru-
man Smith, John M. Bolts, and BENJAMIN
Randall, for their honorable, intelig ent,
and independent course as members OF the
Committee of Elections; and for their
ceaseless, untiring and successful efforts
in exposing the servile and designing con-
duct of tho majority of that Committee
that New Jersey owesto them an especial
debt OF gratitude, which she will ever be
proud to acknowledge; and that as Jersey
men, we now-upon the spot where our
fathers first rolled back the devastating
power of British oppression, and gave a
new hope and impulse to the eventful sirug-
gle for American ndependence-tender
them our most cordial thanks"

SALEM. August 10Th. 1910.

To The editor o the Essen Register,
Sir,-I notice in the Bay State Demo-
crat of the 18th inst three several state
ments, the first signed by Thomas Burt,
the second by Jacob Whittemore, and the
third by Thomas McMaster, Jr. Allthree
of said statements pronounce TO be utter
ly false, and void of truth. These men,
would hope, did not intend wiekedly to lie
but in their statements they have named
officers that | had never heard of at that
time, and they must have forgotten who
was then talked OF. These statements
were obtained by Albert Baker Of HILLSIDE
rough, N. H., in order to snbstantiate a
charge in the Boston Morning Post, ofthe
LIST instant, which he had been instrument
tai in getting up, and which stated that
General Miller told quite different story,
when at dinner given him by the citizens
of Hancock, N. II. soon after the late war
than what he had stated in his letter to the
Hon. Mr.. Webster. The editor of the
Bay State Democrat comments largely up
on the subject. He asks-'In what school
Of morals was Gen.. Miller educated?-
Among what kind Of society has he associ-
ated?" &C., &c. The first time I meet
the Editor, and know him, I'll tell him.
JAMES MILLER.

Mr. Van Buren's Army Project.

The writer of this article was one of the
very first TO denounce in emphatic terms.
through the columns of the Empire State
this project Of the administration. We
looked upon it as unconstitutional, and one
OF the most extraordinary movements ever
made by the administration claiming any
affinity to democracy And the more we
reflect, the more Objectionable it appears
Just look at the measure stripped of rheto-
rick given to it by Mr. Poinsett. The pro.
position was
l. To enrol every white male citizen
between the ages of 90 and as
2. That within three months every one
should arm himself at his own expense.
3. That within given time 100, 900
men should be drafted for actual service!
A. That another 100000 men should
be constantly kept armed and organized.
5. That this body of 100, 900 should be
kept up by constant drafts from the whole
body of the citizens enrolled.
6. That the President may call out
mheneverihe chooses, and'phere he chooses, in
their districts, the whole Of this body Of
100000 men twice year.
8. While thus in the field, this army Of
100, 000is under the control of the Presi-
dent, and subject to such regulations as he
chooses to prescribe
9. If any citizen fails to march into
actual service, mhen ordered by the Pres;-
dent, he is to be fined not less than $5 nor
| more than $50.
10, lfhe refuses to pay the fine he is
subjected to IMPRISONMENT IN
CLOSE JAIL UNTIL THE FINE is
PAID.
Such are the naked provisions Of this
monstrous project of Poinsett, endorsed by
Van Buren,, and condemned by the peoplel
This is the project cunningly devised, by
which the administration hoped soto forth
| fy themselves, as, with the aid Of the other
great measure, the sub-treasury, recently
adopted to bid defiance to the People, and
laugh them to scorn.
