For the numerous Aattering notices
we have received from our contempora-
ries Of the press we feel extremely obi
ged, and we shall make every effort to
deserve a portion at least of the praise
we have received, and for the compli-
ment conveyed in ascribing and expect
ing so much, our poor abilities shall all
be enlisted.

A few locos' at the meeting on Monday
last gave themselves great cause for
glorifcation by resolving that The people
Of Mississippi aciH not pay the bombs.
when, if twenty minutes notice had been
given, the crowd who were driven off bv
their tiresome, senseless speeches, might
have been collected, and their silly reso-
lutions voted down by larger majority
than they were at the previous meeting.
On this occasion they did their prettiest,
and from the exertions which we under
stand were made to collect their entire
force, we are inclined to think all the
antl-bondmen in the county have been
here and voted at the last two meetings.
If so there are not more than fifty in the
county. There 1cere men lcho rotsd that
the bombs are null and uoid. 1cho sau the
stockholders of the Union Bank are Tia
Bile. Now, what kind Of reasoning Is
this? If the bonds are null and void
why should any body be liable for them
If this is consistency, it is of strange
sort; and this is of a sort with the voters
who passed the resolutions published
to-day.

Of that party, having since the last meet
inc when they were SO signally defeated,
been busily engaged raIlying their for
ces. TO make desperate struggle OIL this
occasion. There were many persons at
this meeting who were not present at the
last preceding one, and the bond-men
who were composed of the +" bone and
sinew'' Of the land and who then voted
50 CALAMITY for the pay nent Of the bonds
must have thought it unnecessary to
leave hons on this latter occasion. When
a Snail number Of anti-bonders caught
us with the bars down, bolted' in and
passed their disgracefuI resolutions.
But 10 the speeches;-we listened to
them and we have heard the opinions Of
others who did so, and we have come TO
the conclusion that there we're not four
men who made known their views at this
meeting who were at all acquainted with
their subject, and we think those who
are SO lavish of their superior wisdom,
and who voluntarily come forward "to
enlighten the people;'' on all such occa-
sions should be treated with that disre-
gard which they deserve, and which we
are happy to see the "peoPle" as sgnlt-
cantly termed by some Of these modern
Ciceros, are beginning silently bat for
chilly to evince. 1t ought to be remem
bered by some Of them that when the
:. people" want their oratorical or any
other services, they will generally be
found with discrimination and discern
ment enough to appreciate whatever ia
lent the orators may have. But it APP
pears in this some Of them refuse to rely
on the discernment of the " people as if
they were afraid their splendid abilities
would not be rewarded. Nor will they;
their suspicious Of neglect on the part of
the "people" are we'll founded, and we
predict that many will 60 down "unhon-

The New York American says -" This

been indicted by the grand Jury now sitting.
There will be now an opportunity of sitting
judicially and establishing or confuting the
charge fprocuring illegal votes.
The New York Express in abiding to the
proceeding Of the grand Jury, in reference to
Glentworth, has the following:
The grand Jury came into court at 5 o'clock
on Monday, with 80 bills of indictment, among
them seven against James 3. Glentworth, late
Tobacco Inspector. These bills are each for
mlsdemeanor, and in the language OF the in
dlctment charge that said Glentworth, on the
Attn of November 1888, did furnish a large sum
OF money to Robert Miller, viz $500, for the
purpose OF being expended in procuring the at
tendance OF voters at the polls in the city of
New York, at general election which was
hed In and for the city and county Of New

the evil example of others in like cases Often

From the Y Sun.

The North East boundary forms prominent
| subject in the message delivered by Gov. Kent,
to the legislature of Maine last week; and his
sentiments on that subject will be regarded
with interest. His language IN relation to THIS
matter is manly, firm and decided. After ai-
luding to the various obstacles and delay 8
which have heretofore been interposed, pre-
venting an adjustment Of the question, he says: :
The time cannot be far distant when the
question must assume definite shape, either
peaceable or warlke; and much as we depre-
cate the awful evils and miseries OF war, we
ought to be prepared to meet the issue, il such
after all, is the determination of our opponent,
with the firmness Of men who feel that they
have the right, and will not yield. to threat or
force. the inheritance of our fathers and the
reh,ful territory of our state. The unanmity
which has ever characterized our state on this
question, in the midst of all our political ex-
elements, is sure guarantee that the people
are ready to sustain Their rulers in judcious,
temperate, yet firm and decided measures, and
that it is regarded by them as too sacred and
too solemn subject to be made the instru-
ment of mere party schemes or movements.
He adverts to the occupation, by order ofthe
Governor General of Canada, of the posts at
Temiscouta Lake and Madawa>ka, by British
troops, in direct violation of the stipulated
agreement between the authorities OF New
Brunswick and Maine, and says:
cannot but view this proceeding as my pre-
decessor does in his reply to Sir John Harvey
as direct, palpable Infringement of the SUBJ
sis.ing arrangement in his taking possession
of that portion of the contested territory. And
if the suggestion Of 1t. Governor Harvey, who
seems not to have been consulted IN relation
to this new act of jurisdiction, and who evil
IDENTIFY regards it with regret if not as an In
fringement of subsistine arrangements, is dis
regarded, and the British troops are perma-
nently located at Madawaska, shall feel it
my duty to reiterate the request already made
to the General Government, and to urge upon
that Government the justice and expectancy Of
taking military possession on the part OF the
Uniled States, of the territory in dispute. The
General Government owes it to Maine to move
forward in this matter, with promptness and
energy, with sincere and even anxious de-
sire to preserve peace, but with an equally firm
determination to maintain subsisting engage
ments on our part and to insist upon full per-
| Torrance from the other party.
