''Strong as was the conviction every

But this is not ALL To the cowardiee Of this
act the charge of falsehood may undoubtedly
be added. This | know, is very plain Ian
guage; but, in a case Of this kind the truth
demands great plainness. The book in ques-
ton is called "Porter's Rhetorical Reader
Now, az | verify believe, this is NOT Porter's
Reader that is, it is not as the pious and
venerable DIR. Porter left II: HE NEVER CON-
sENTED TO SUCH A MUTATION OF HIS BOOK
That good man aud accomplished scholar died
at Andoyer Mass, on the 5th Of April, 1885,
NINETEEN YEARS AGO this book, thus mutila-
ted, has been published within a very few years.
The date of the book is cautiously omitted in
the title.page but | cannot trace its publication
further back than 1848. The publishers there
for thus mutilatng Dr. Porter's excellent book
If they cannot do it, need not say what will
be the verdict of the public
Is it not time for authors TO lift up their
voices in this matscs, ard Indignantly remon
strate against such false representations being
made of themselves, either by socssies or indi.
viduals! There are those who think far less
of the literary merits of their works than they
do of the moral, humane, and Christian senti-
ments that pervade them, and they deem such
works as are in harmony with Gospel truth the
richest legacy they can leave to their children
But the hopes of leaving such a legacy are
vain, if publishers can thus alter their works
with IMMUNITY.
In conclusion, | would ask Do not the de-
scendants of DIR. Porter owe it to themselve.
and to the fair fame Of their excellent ancestor
to come forward and vindicate his memory
from all participation in, or cOnnivsnce at such

aud the interests of the STATE Some years ago
for about three years. we bad a similar Office
which was very ably flied by Samuel Levi

LOrin Andrews, gentleman of fine attain
ments, who has been employed for several
years as superintendent, by the State Teachers
Association, and who has shown himself emf
nently fitted for the place, has been recon-
mended for the Office by the ardent friends OF
education. He is now supported by almost the
entire Free Soil and Wing press, by several in
dependent papers, by many Democrats, and the
teachers of the State generally.
The Democratic party, not content that the
office should be filled by peoples movement
or by any other person than a strict Democratiu
partisan, have nominated Mr.. H. H. Barney
We anticipate, however that Mr. Andrews
will be triumphsntly elected rs the strength
OF all parties combined, at the last election, wa

Mr.. Andrews, although he has heretofore
generally acted with the Wing party, is opposed

friend of Freedom, Temperance. and every
good reform. He is man of a noble and gen
erous heart, and is worthy of the support OF
every Free Democrat. ALPHA.

of Frank Lewis, Ada's arms relaxed their hold.
She did not lift her head, but the color ebbed
and flowed in her temples with every fresh
surprise that linked him with the narrative.
At last, when Milly, in a tremuous tone. re-
peated the words Of his farewell whisper, Ada
lifted up her tear.bedewed face, ike June
rose to the rainbow of its first thunder-shower,
glowing in undisguised delight All Ada's
heart had blossomed into wOmanhood more
swiftly than the rose unfods
"Then he ptA come again !" she innocently
and frankly exclaimed.
Yes-he did "come again and yet again.
Before the termination of the tour he con-
templated Henley fell a victim to the cholera,
which had Just broken out among the river
steamers Frank was at his side through all
the hours OF the brief excrucating illness, list
ening to the yet more heartrending cry of a
despairing soul, that had squandered its treas
ure OF Time, and struggled back in vain from
the brink of Eternity The dreadful lesson
was not lost upon the young survivor
He found his guardian overwhelmed with
grief even to imbecility, at the loss of his only
son---his idniized though profigate heir---ior
whose sake he had trampled on principle and
conscience, to clay up much goods for many
years"
Lonely and dispirited, Frank at last turned
in thought to the sunshiny prairie. There were
faces waiting to welcome him, at least there
were-He would certainly make the circuit
in his route to the University He could do SC
with safety now.
Frank Lewis and Ada Egerton could not
alscays be boy and girl you know. When
Frank shall have succeeded in disentanghng
himself entirely from the chain of slavehold-
ing, and in melting the remaining fragment Of
Ada's snowdrift of anti-Southern prejudice
then Adas I" dear mamma" may revive again,
in the balmy air of a Southern winter; and
Milly blessed in the fruition of her hfe-hope-
her freedom-may not be forced to choose, in
fixing her home between the child she rocked
and the child she reared. But must not

To lie Editor Of the National Era:
The prospects Of the Free Democracy were
never more encouraging in this State than at
present. Messrs Lewis, Chase, Hamlin, Julian,
and others, are nov engaged in canvassing the
State. They are meeting with the warmcst
reception everywhere, and the prospect is that
the Free Democratic vote will DO greatly in
creased. Mr.. Lewis being the only candidate
for Governor who is reliable on the Temper
ance question, multitudos Of Temperance Wings
and temperance Democrats will vote for him.
In the election of members Of the Legislature
the Maine Law is the great question, and old
party lines are mostly obliterated, and candi-
dates are supported with reference to their po-
stion on this question.
In counties where Free Democrats have a
majority, Maine Law Free Democrats are
nominated, and will be elected. In counties
where they are In the minority, union Of the
temperance men Of ell political parties is fire.
quently formed In these peoples tickets the
Free Democracy have quito fair representa-
ton in the candidates, and we anticipate that
some fifteen or twenty Free Democrats will be
returned to the Legislature next winter, who
will hold the balance Of power, and, we trust,
secure the re election Of Mr. Chase TO the U.

that they would not understand the pure Eng

Of a much higher order! Or, what is more
probable, do the parents of that region, in hum.

A DREAM OF sEPTEMBEE.
BY LYDIA A. CALDWELL.

BY LYDIA A. CALDWELL.
More dear the dreamy, purple haze,
Which slumbers Ger these Autumn days,
Than all the fair, but paler light,
Wherein the spring time flowers grow bright
The richest blooms that boughs may bear
Scent sweet this soft September air.
The brooks which water all the vale
Have told, of late tenderer tale,
With voice so low it almost seems
A sound which filters through our dreams.
And drops, we know not how or whence
liquid bliss upon the sense.
Where the warm light loves best to lie,
OF any spot beneath the sky,
The yellow ranks of ripened maize
Stand ready for the harvest days.
AS some spent warrior sad and torn,
Lets fall the red helm he has worn,
ION lonely maple mid the sheaves
Casts down the crimson of his leaves;
The weary grapevine low lets fall
His purple burden DER the wall
Tho prince s-fcather drops his glumes
ocStuO tue uoOis III Diood-iSu piuhco
High up are heapcd the jasmine SHOWS;
Most blue of blooms, the larkspur blows;
While asters, crimson, gold, and blue
Enrich the light with their rare hue.
The dream -to-te, ITO do, and dare
Is not for this delicious air!
Then lot INC lean on natures breast,
For have need, to-day, of rest.
In all the valleys scented soil
No lily blooms that tells of toll
And awhile would live like these
Dream still of peace, and only peace.
Come thou sweet friend in whose meek eyes
A fairer light than autumn's lies
Awhile wen trace the moss-grown ways
Of older times and dearer days.
Together will DO here be fed
On mutual hopes divided bread;
And, clasping hands, wen drink the wine
Wrung out from mem rvs purple vine.
Within these shadows, deep aud COOL
Wen sit by this remembered pool,
And watch for faces, dear as fair,
That years ago were mirrored there;
Until our eyes grow dim with tears,
Wen trace the smiles of other years;
Wen wait beside these paths uneven,
For feet long since gone up to heaven
Aud it, amid the boughs, there be
The south winds low, sweet psalmody,
Wen think we hear a voice that long
Has sung the angels fairer song.
And thus, dear friend, well sit and muse
Till Past and Future blond their hues,
And, mingiing cause fairer light
To glorify the coming night.
While Memory londs to Hope her crown,
Wen sit and watch the sun go down
Behind the purple hills, that lie
Against the blue walls of the sky;
While, one by one, the pale eyed stars
Come through the sunsets golden bars.
