Oi1ITE A MISTAKE.

We notice a statement in several Of our
State papers, that the Maine law has been
repudiated by the people of that State, and
as a proof of it, they cite the defeat Of Hon.
Neal Dow (author of the law for the May
orally of Portland. This is a great mistake.
Mr.. BOWS opponent was claimed to be as
thorough a Maine law man az he, and thus
many Maine Law democrats voted for him,
and he was elected. When he was inaugu-
rated, Mr.. Paris (the successful opponent
of Mr.. Dow pledged himself to carry out
the law to the letter This does not look
like 1t was unpopular. Besides, SO town
ships out of 65 in the State, voted in favor
of sustaining the law. The Is townships
voting against the law have a population o.
about q 900, while the so voting for it have
a population of $50. 0O0! Vastly unpopu
lar is the Maine law in that State is it no
gentlemen lover the left 1t is worthy
of note that Mr.. Dow received a larger vote
by nearly 200 than when he was elected be
fore. The rummies themselves, said that i
he rot 1 400 votes he was elected. He 60
1903, and was deafeated because there wer
more votes than voters. The Waterman 0
Portland says We could have met an
deafeated our open opponents ; but hun
dreds of aAvowed advocates for the law vote
against us, confidently asserting, and predit
ting alt the while, that Jude Paris will viz
%orously execute the law.

TRUE FRIENDSHIP.

Why is it that genuine = real-true-hearted
friends are so rare? Why so like angel visits
-" few and far betweenT e. Alas that true
friendship is more rare than il should be for
the good of mankind. We daily hear high
Protestations of friendship one for another
Is it true-pure exalted-disinteres friend
ship? Is it not too often a selfish sentiment
that seeks emolumont and promotion at the
shrine Of the rich and influential! Alas! The
weakness and selfish propensities of our ma
Eures! We daily sec and hear men and wo-
men exelaim - he or she is one of my best
friends r-and perhaps at the same time in the
Bosom Of both are felt envyings, pickering,
and heart burnings. How seldom true friend
ship exists between individuals moving togeth
er in the higher and more aristocratic circles o
life! How seldom one is found here who act,
md speaks the true feelings Of his heart with
Spirit of the age. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1849-1865, 1852-04-28

Defined by an eminent photographer to be
a lazy person, n sluggard one who trifes
away his time We have a few words for
such So no! Mister Idler, stop a moment-
a word with you. Ifyou are not too lazy,we wish
you to reflect on yourself. Look up from the
ground, don't you see action and industry writ
ten on everyth!ng-on the futtering leaves of
the forest; the g~rass--the sunbeam-the breezes
the growing lowerx-the birds of the air
the rivulets-the clouds-the Occan-men-
boys-focks-insects why the very ants swarm
ing around your feet are busy, and you, slug
gard, alone are Idle! Shame on you grave,
(stupid , fellow, do stir round and make an
effort to live. Why the very blood in your
veins will grow torpid and black from mac
ton! Oh! beg your pardon, Mister Idler-
forgot who we were speaking to-Rich, Veal
thy, Highbirth,-hey Oh! But we are
not going to eat our words, no how you can
fix it; for we remember now we are in the
glorious Amiriky,' with a free press and a free
people, and privileged to write so long as we
have readers, and thanks to the good taste of
the pebple, we boast of having a nice roll-a
handsome figure towards that fire thousand, you
know. So here's at you, Mr.. Idler Rich, alias
Rich Idler. What if you have thousands in
stock and fat annuities beside, is that any rea-
son why you should be l~istlessly drawing your
lazy frame through the land just for all the
world rs if you had two several fifty-sixes
chained to your feet? Work a little for your
health, your credits sake and humanity. Did
you never hear read from a certain old heg1ec-
ted History, (of course you never reaG it your
self,) concerning the distribution of the various
talents &? There's not a doubt but what the
riches you are blest or cursed with, is your tai.
ent-Will you improve twill you work with
a portion of it to bring joy to the disconsolate
and hope to the helpless Responding ones who
drink at Morals bitter fountain the wormwood
and the call Of poverty? Will you work with
it and aid in leading sorrows child to the foun'
tain of pleasure at the end of virtues path? Il
too lazy to work otherwise for the ameliora
ton of the condition of mankind, will you take
our advice and make your taIent-your money
work for God-for your race-for humani,
ty! Will you try it! If you will not, and still
persist in being "a lazy person, a sluggard,
our advice is that you never sleep but sit b.
your gold and watch it; for we once learned
when a school-bo that some riches have 'Wings
