Our candidate for Congress is one in whom
OLD LINCOLN may put entire confidence. He is
a man of talents, a sound scholar, and an emf
nent Jurist He has not been feeding for o years
on the patronage of the government, and for Z
years past, at the rate of from s. 500 to $4,000
per year He has been too honest to change his
principles for the sake of Office. He has not
enjoyed executive patronage till he has become
rich and then when there is prospect of
change of administration, come to seek the
patronage of the eople. He has been contented
to save his honor untarnshed and to obtain the
distinction of being honoraJly poor. He has not
made caucus speeches, denouncing banks with
the violence of u Goblet, nud then gone straight
home and taken his seat as President of the
board of Directors of one of those monstrous
Institutions Oh no He is content to come
before the people sustained only by his unflnch
ING honesty of purpose, his uniform consistency
of character, and plain straitforward democra-
CIV of action We have told you what he is not
The voters of Old Lincoln know what he is, a
man every way such as they delight to honor, and
also man whose talents and actions, and prin-
ciplcs will do HONOR TO THEM.

Governor.

EDWARD KENT, is a man above all others,
to unite the votes of every man who feels for the
honor of our own noble State. We have tried
him once-he has proved himself to be clear
headed and strong minded man-too firm to veer
and haul at every nod of temporlzng federal
executiye-too wise to be hurried into rashness.
Mr.. Kent does not buster, but he acts-hc re-
solves with GOODNESS, and when he has resolved,
he never backs out. Experience has shown that
the measures regarding the North Eastern Boun-
diary, which were begun under the vigorous ad-
ministration of Mr.. Kent, were the very best
that could have been taken. lie prosecuted
survey till stopped by the inclemency OF the
season. map was made of the greater part OF
the route, and very short time in the following
spring would have finished what this cLuntry
never has known an impartial survey of the dis
puted territory. But Fairfield on his election
stopped the whole business, and refused even to
print that part of the map which was made
The consequence is we have been tainted IN tho
British Parliament with the fact that we have
never published an accurate map of the disputed
territory! And why? Because of the palpa-
Bile ignorance or negligence OF Johi uiiieio
Let us then send home this lille man who has
shown himself incompetent from want OF fore
sight, and deficient in the moral courage necessa-
nv to sustain the honor of the State. He has run
the State in debt, half million, and then by his
pitful trucking to Mr.. Van Buren, has failed to
secure single advantage from the expedition
Nay, more, he has left the State in a worse condi
ton than it ever was before. Let HARRISON and
KENT come on the stage, and Maine will see her
HONOR vindicated and her citizens freed from the
INSULTS of foreigners claiming dominion over
their FARMS and FIREsIDEs.

man Need we say one word in his praise Who
that knows Dea. DANA, can say aught against
him? Nay rather let us ask how we can speak of
him too highly He is HONEST, CAPABLE
and FAITHFUL And when we have said this,
although we might say much more, we feel that
we have said enough. We will only add-that
he is a firm Democrat-an unwavering Wing,
and is always ready to show his colors !! He
will never be found skulking behind the broken

Of President and Vice President of the
United States.
Resolued, That we look with Indignation
and contempt Oh the base aud untlrIng ct
forts of the tools of tho party in power to
sigmaiize the life and services OF That tru-
ly great aud good man Vim II. Harrison
and that we want no further evidence oil
his qualifications for the high and RESPONSE
BILE office of President of the United States
than is furnished by the history oil our
county.
Resolred, That we have no confidence
in the obseqtious and unstatemanlike con-
duet of John Fairfield in regard to the
boundary question &c, but think 1t more
proper TO pity him as a slave to party than
blame him as an independent freeman.
Rrsouied, That we repose the fullest
confidence in the abilities, and integrity OF
EDWARD KENT, and believe, that the
good ofthe State requires his promotion to
the Chief Magistracy of Maine.
Resolved, That we duly appreciate the
invaluable services of our distinguished
Representative ofold republican Kenne-
bee, the Hon. GEoRGE Evans, who alone,
as IL were, has SlDOu thV S'''''
pion, in vindication of our state tights,
against the combined powers of Locooco-
ism, and British aggression; and we will
cordially give him our thanks for past servi-
ces, and our suffrage, as an earnest, tor his
future prosperity and success; and finn
adherence to the true principles of democ-
racy.
Rrsolred, That we have entertained a
high opinion Of the character OF MIR Bron-
son Of Arson, but now deem him (like the
iIustrious Clay) to be one of those dis'in-
guished patriots. who would sacrifice their
own dearest rights, and interests, for the
good of the country, and for the sake Of
the Union.
Resolred, That old democratic Itch
field ever true to the Wing cause, and cor
rect principles, will not be lacking 10 the
present great political enterprise, but will
respond TO HARRISON and REFORM,
by an increased and overwhelming MAORI
ty. :. .,.
Voted. That the proceedings of,his con-
vention be published in the Kennebec jour
nal, at Augusta, and in tho Lincoln Tele-
graph at Bath.
Voted, To adjourn, to meet again on
Thursday the 10th Sept at 4 o'clock p.

Van Buren, Taxation,

The Calhoun part of the Van Buren, party, has
avowed it's object to be that of TAXING THE
PEOPLE DIRECTLY, for all the expenditures
of the general government. AS this party holds
the balance of power, Van Buren, must, if again
elected, come to their terms, whether he will or
no ; or be left in a minority. Are the people of
Maine ready to pay in addition to their present
taxes, A DIRECT TAX OF EIGHT HUN
DRED THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR
If not let them beware of Van Buren's re-elec-
ton Unpopular as the measure now seems, it is
not more So than the Sub-treasury was when
FIRST proPosed-and may be carried by the same
means.

The Address of this gentleman before our citizens
on Thursday evening last, at The Baptis, Meeting

in relation to OUT North Eastern Boundary, was a
caution to all government tnkers BY the way,
