oFFICE-HOLDER's INTERFERENCE PROHIBITED.
Gen. Harrlson's decided ground against all i'm
proper interference and dctation of office-hoders
in the elections of the people, as eyinced in the
following circular, officially, exctes very general
surprise, and in some the indignation of
our late functionaries. This is not to be wonder
ed at, for it has already had a very peculiar
application to themselves, and will still moro
generally, until the ''augaen stable is thoroughly
cleansed, and the places of all such "meddlers"
filled with men who will answer to the Jeffer,
sonian requirement sis he honest--s he capa-
be ?'-men who will give their attention to the
legitimate duties of their stations, and leave
purity politics to the supervision of those who
have less self interest to influence them.
The Republicans of this County will at once
yield their cordial appreciation of the require
ments exacted in this document. Long enough
have they been insulted and their confidence
abused, by those vested with little "brief au.
thorty'' and totally devoid of the more sterling
qualities ofpropriety and enlightened sense. When
the Republicans of this County have far de-
terioated in love of country and sound patriotism
and virtue, that they will suffer the control of
their political views to fall under the supreme
guidance of knot of office holders, we pledge
our influence for another change
We rejoice, however, that the "signs of the
times" are ominous of good; and that the great
revolution of the past year will not be in vain,

secretary or Inc treasury:
Sir: The PRECEDENT is of opinion that it is a
great abuse to bring the patronage ofthe General
Government into conflict with the freedom of
elections and that this abuse ought to be corrcc-
ted wherever it may have been permitted to ex-
list, and to be preyented for the future.
He therefore directs that information be given
to all officers and agents in your Department of
the public service that partiznn interference IN
popular elections, whether of State officers Of
ficers of this Government, and for whomseeyer or
against whomsoever it may be exercised, or the
payment Of any contribution or assessment on
salared official compensation for party or cleo
ton purposes, will be regarded by him as a cause
of removal.
1t is not intended that any officer shall be re-
strained Ii The free and proper expression and
maintenance of his opinions respecting public
men or public measures, in the exercise, to the
fullest degree, of the constitutional right of suf-
frage. But persons employed under the Govern
ment and paid for their services out of tine public
Treasury, not expected TO take an active or
oiiicious part in attempts to influence tie minds
or votes OF others such conduct being deemed
nconssten, with the spirit of the Constitution
and the duties Of public agents acting under it ;
and the President is resolved. 50 far as depends
upon him, that while the exercise Of the elective
franchise by the people shall be free from undue
influences Of official station and authority, opin
ion shall also be free among the officers and
agents of the Government.
The President wishes it further to be announ.
ced and distinctly understood, that from all col
Letting aud disbursng officers promptitude IN
rendering accounts aud entire punctuaiity in
paving balances, will be vigorously cxacted. In
his opinion it is time to return, in this respect, to
the early practice of the Government, and to
hold any degree of DELINQUENCY on the part Of
those entrusted with the public money, Just cause
of immediate removal He deems the severe
observance of this rule to be essential to the
Lincoln telegraph. [volume] (Bath, Me.) 1836-1846, 1841-04-01

The ArroRrIoSmENT. In our last. through
inadvertence, we omitted giving Thomaston and
Phipsburg Representation We viii now
state that Thomaston is reported tro members,
and Phips5urg one, Fer the years I842, al, As,
AZ, 40 and 81. Webster and Lisbon we did not
put down precisely correct. 1t should stand thus:
Webster one for 1913, AS, AZ and 50; Lisbon
one for 1912, AZ, '4G, '48, 40 and 81.
The apportionment, so far as we have been
able to examine, appears to be very just and as
unobjectionablc as could be expected, considering
the different localities The .dge and other oPpo
stion papers have labored hard 10 involve it in
the same grounds of complaint, which were 50
Justly brought against the "gerrymanderng"
apportionment Of their own party in l63l.-But
thus far, their attempts have been fruitless, ex-
cept to convince US of the justice of the present
apportionment, and the discriminating good sense
of the committee who reported it.

nation of such as may desire to learn The science
or art of writing a beautiful hand, that Mr. BAD
LAM will remain in town a short time longer, and
will be happy TO accommodate all whomay be thus
disposed, From specimens of his art. and the
Improvement of his pupils we are inclined to
believe that he would give very general satisfac-
ton. and therefore recommend him to the pat
ronaoe of our friends.

Mr.. SewaIl from the committee of conterees
upon the dsagreeng vnte of the two branches
on the County Officer BILL reported that the con-
ferees had met and agreed that the Senate should
farther amend the BILL and the House should
concur with the Senate when they shall have
amended the same. The report was accepted and
the bill was amended, not materially varying the
provisions Of the bill, but merely pertecting it
as it previously passed by the Senate. The
amendment only makes provision for second
election in case there should be no choice the
first time.
Mr.. Daveis proposed 10 amend the bill so as
to provide that the people shall vote yea or nay
upon each OF the officers named IN the bill. The
Chair stated that inasmuch as the Senator had
offered this same amendment once before, 1t
would now be out of order to consider it. The
ru'os and orders were so far Suspended as to allow
its consideration. The yeas and nays were or
dered upon the amendment, and it was rejected,
yeas a, nays II.
The bill was then passed to be engrossed.
On motion of Mr. Pike, the Senate proceeded
to the consideration of an act to incorporate the
Androscoggin Manufacturing Company. The
bill was passed to be engrossed.
The bill to repeal the charters of the Globe,
Citizens, and Frankfort Banks was passed to be
enacted.
In the HOUSE, Resolves to apportion Senators
and Re representatives., read twice and the
amendme nts of The Senate came up for consld-
