Richmond.

One of the prettiest places on the keEnebec,
is the village of Richmond. Its distinguishing
trait is not altogether in its beauty; for the
hum of business and the huge ribs Of leviathan
ships OF the waters edge, mark it as place of
enterprise and prosperity. For two or three
years past, Richmond has increased in popula-
ton and business to an extent rarely ezcelcd
Many beautiful residences have been added as
ornaments of the village to those previously
existing, and whole neighborhoods of new
houses have arisen as if by magic. Some half
dozen new ships are now on the stocks, one of
them of about thousand tons. In the lower
part of the village beautiful tract sloping to
the river, has been reclaimed from grass, pota-
to and corn crops-a new wharf has been
built and barque and ship on the stocks re-
sound to the noise of the carpenters mallet.
We are glad to witness these signs Of pros
perity. Situated as Richmond is, about half
way between Bath, the key of the kennebec,
and Hallowell, the head of navigation for ocean
steamers, possessing unsurpassed natural ad-
vantages for ship building and fertile coun-
trv contiguous on the north ana west, she must
be great place one of these days. Intimately
connected with Bath in business relations, we
claim her as an adjunct of our fair city; and
when Bath contains population of twenty
five thousand inhabitants, Richmond Of neces-
sity must number some twelve or fifteen thous-
and. That day is coming soon.
But, politically, Richmond at the present
time looks well. Whiggery has had dank and
rank growth there, on account principally, OF
her contiguity to Kennebec. A better day is,
however, dawning. The democracy there, as
everywhere else at this present time is waking
up. Sterling democratic young men, the
Young Americans of the age, are rushing in as
they always do where there is apparent enter
prise and ,oork to do, and You will find them on
the ships's side and in the mechanics shop
The decrepit and sccdy whiggery of Rich
mond, therefore, is on the decline. Depend
upon it, the real Pierce and King enthusiasm
is up, and Richmond will speak in September
by tremendous vote for JOHN HUBBARD.

The Eagle Club.

/ This club, located at Gardiner, and made up
of The democrats of Gardiner, Farmingdale,
and Pittston, is one of the smartest in the
State. On account of the boastfnl bearing of
whig politicians in that nest of federalism,
Kennebec, and their oters 10 bet on the cleo
ton ofScott, the Eagle Club was induced to
adopt measure by which gentlemen of the
wing party in the habit of travelling through
the country. showing their money and soaring
democrats by their betting offers, could have
chance to PIT up the rhino and wait the result.
Democrats are proverbially opposed to betting,
and all species of gambling but something of
the kind seemed 10 be required to stop the
mouths of boosters, and the Eagle Club there
fore gave notice that they had ready from 500
TO $4,000 to cover the like amount put up by
any wing or wing club on Scott.
The effect Of this measure was TO produce
great scarcity of money among whig polti-
clans, and it was rumored for some DAYS that
there was not a whig in Kennebec that dared
to avow himself the possessor of $40. 1t put
complete damper on their boasts, and
squeeze on their pockets.
1t appears by the last Gardiner Transcript,
that the wings are trying 10 crawl out of their
predicament, through the far-reachng wisdom
and dexterity of Parker Sheldon, Esq, Presi-
dent of Scott Club in Gardiner that has not
hitherto exhibited life enough to "go alone"
Mr.. Sheldon is well known as gentleman of
parts. He was formerly Mayor of Gardiner
got out some ideas on the "head of navigation"
violently danced before the Legislature on
the Farmingdale question, dancing through the
charter and himself into it. Well, Mr.. Shell
den says, the Scot, Club declines accepting the
challenge of the Eagle Club because the anti
protective policy of tine different democratic ad-
ministrations has made the members so poor i'll
means, and "because the Scott Club is not
gambling concern" That is, the wings have
grown very poor because they could not get
what now they do not even ask for and have
thrown overheard, protective policy-and
after great uproar about their willingness to
bet on Scott, they have suddenly become a
very moral set of people, and cannot accept the
challenge of the Eagle Club, because it would
be gambling Ifthis is not the greatest joke
of the campaign, then we are nojudge. Com
mend US to Parker Sheldon, Esq, if we ever
get where it is necessary to creep through
very small hole.

EFFECTS OF THE WING ADMINIsTR ATIoN.-The
New York Times, Wing paper, breaks out in
the following manner. There are great truths
in what it says -
"And apropos to this fishery business, it adds
another to the many instances we have recorded
of late, Of the contempt into which we have
fallen nationally through the craven character
of our diplomatic policy, during the past ten
years. Insults fall upon us thicker and faster.
Our ships sail up and down the Mediterranean,
with white flag at the masthead, for fear of
offending the President of France. Feeble tot
tering Spain brings us to her decrepit feet. to
beg the liberty of our citizens, whose confine-
ment was gross act of contumely. Mexico
taking courage from the general example, and
forgetting Buena Vista and Churubusco, seizes
and imprisons our consul at Acapulco. The
authorities of Greece, with similar contempt
for the dignity of our Government, condemn
and fine our agent at Athens. England after
practically treating the Clayton treaty as a
nudity, by repeated violations of it, and insults
to our Aag has the audacity to send an agent
to Washinton, who assumes that document to
be waste paper, and yet he meets with no re-
buke. And how far must we have sunk in
the scale of dignity and responsibility when a
claim, like this Of the fisheries unasserted and
through thirty three years, is at last asserted so
suddenly and insolently by the Derby Ministry:
Is likely that any such Prescriptions would
have ever been INDUCED in, if the high diplo-
matte tone assumed by Gen. jackson, had
been maintained y

Letter from Mr.. Van Buren,.

Hon. Martin Van Buren, has written a let
ter to the Democratic Association in New
York city, in reply to note advising him Of
his election as an honorary member, from
which we quote the following extract. He
says, most truly, the YOUNG MEN have got the
work to do. Depend upon i; they will do ii
faithfully. Read what he says:
But, gentlemen, the course you are TAX.
ing is the ouiy one that will make that sue
cess certain-organizato is the sole secur.
ty for the defeat of our opponents. They
are led by the General-in-C Chief Of the Army,
who knows the value of discipline, and their
second in command was taken from the
head Of the Navy. Such ticket, SO forli-
fed, can only be overcome by strict and
thorough organization.
The democratic young men must perfect
this work. They generally discharge this
labor of the campaign, but now they should
claim the burden Of the whole contest-they
have a peculiar stake in it. The most hon
orable and responsible post in the world is
rendered without solicitation TO one of their
number. Powerful and meritorious vetera ms
have been bid by the Convention 10 stand
back, and General Pierce, a young man
without wealth, whose connections are neilh-
err numerous nor influential, has been adj
vanced to the front in the face of his own de-
clnation.
With a vigorous and cultivated intellect,
an nncorrupted heart and dsinterested
patriotism inherited from revolutionary
sire, and tested by an honorable public Gu
reer, he challenges the confidence and re-
spect ofall, but he pre-eminenily demands
The cordial and enthusiastic support of the
young.

leader, SO presented, shall not fail from the
supineness or neglect Of those, who. like
yourselves, are especially entrusted with the

STEAMER OCEAN There is now great
rush of travel by steamer Ocean between the
Kennebec ard Boston. The cts are fleeing
into Maine, and the countrvmen, are fleeing to
the city. A night trip on smooth sea and an
exhaIation. of the briny air of old ocean, are
pleasurable experiences just at this time
Then the steamer Ocean is such fine boat-so
convenient, neat and commodious-w such
-efhciert and gentlemarly officers, managing af-
fairs with complete order and propriety-it is
rather hard 10 resist the inclination of going to
sea. Added to the above excelences and at
fractions of the steamer Ocean, is the enticing
fact that no steamer ever on our waters under

the dust of railroads and country roads, to take

SUICIDE AT NIAGARA FALLS. A female
milliner, % years Of age, Invested herself Of
all her clothing and threw herself into the
Niagara river, just above the cataract, from
whence she was thrown down the mighty
fall. She was fshed for by the people on
the rocks, for an hour without success.
The sight was horrible to behold; the body
seemed to be tossed upward BY an invisible
power below, and again il was drawn under

BACKING OUT.'-Arrangements were made
yesterday, in this city, between democrat and
a wing, TO put up $3.50 side, on the election
of Gen. Scott. The democrat, of course, bet
ting that Scott can't come in. After spending
couple of hours in hunting up the promising
wing, he found him, but only to learn that he
backed down., and would on no account stand
up to his candidate. 1t was sensible conclu-
sion-but, alas, it shew plainly enough that
he nor his friends have the least idea that Scott
will be elected, and they don't mean to lose
that sum in order to keep up appearances =
Our friend, the democrat, desires US to give
notice, that the money waits fer any whig, or
body of wings, club or society, between this
and California-if any have courage enough to
cover it.-Argus.
A Jealous, noisy wing, the other day, want
ed 10 bet $40 that Scott would carry N. York
$40 that he would carry Ohio, and $40 that he
would carry Pennsylvania A democrat hear
ing his boastng, went to him few hours at:
forwards, and taking him aside, inquired
whether he wanted to bet $500 on the genera
result or election of Scott informing him tina
if such was his desire the bet would be taker
Immediately He backed square out, giving a:
an excuse, that he had rather bet on States, Sc
as to have chance TO tcin part!

e." The famous yacht America has been
beaten at the Cowes, by new yacht called the
Arrow. This new craft was built upon model
of the America, and it may therefore be con-
sidered an American triumph. The America
had just returned from long sea voyage, and
was manned by English sailors, which perhaps
did not add to her sailing qualities. Another
reason is said have been that the regulations
of the Club did not allow her to use her main
topmast sail, when the breeze slackened and
her other sails became insufficient.

Spirit Of the Mail Bags

Thus saith the Postmaster of Bath. We are

ways be able to walk straight. But would it
not be we'll for the P. M instead of being so
free with the use of epithets upon us, which
no gentleman can be feld as bound to notice,
and long ago decided by common politeness,
no gentleman can use, to look back whence he

terding.
Does he recollect under what peculiar and
fortuitous circumstances he obtained the Post

advise the Bath Postmaster to look just there.
Then he may look forward to an inevitable
