The " republican ~ meeting at Buxton the
other day, was attended by the Portland Rifle
Guards, who shot poor Robbins. Neal Dow
was also there. John P. Hale said: =
WHATEVER oBLooUY, WHATEVER oDIUM,
WHATEVER REPRoACH, OR WHATEVER DISGRACE
MAY BE HEAPED UPON NEAL Dow, OR UPON
THOSE NOBLE SOLDIERS WHO SUSTAINED HIM, L
WANT To BAPTIZE MY SOUL IN THE

Rev. Austin Wiley, who prays, swears ard
lies for the Morrill, party all in the same
breath, then remarked that I" the soldiers pres
ent are this NOBLE company" Louis o.
Cowan, the barking Morrilite of the Bidde-
ford Union, then proposed THREE CHEERS
for the Portland Rife Guards-THREE
CHEERS for the murderous soldiers who at
the command of Neal DO,O poured the DEADLY
LEAD Of their rifles into promiscuous crowd
of the citizens of Portland
The Portland Argus very properly asks -
Messrs. Editors, do we live in state Of AT
rican barbarity and Russian despotism. New
eer, gentlemen, in the excitement OF politics,
for nearly thirty years, did feel such thrill
of horror, as when heard this barbarous-
this understanding proposition.
Is it matter for three cheers that fellow cit
izen is shot dead IN the street, let him be ever
so great a rloter-and six or seven others dan
gerously woundedi Can anybody reconcile
such rejoicings with humane land Christian
temperament, or with pure conscience =

appears. 1t is horrible horrible!! horri-
bic ~ Three cheers for the murderers of Rob

illegal order, in shooting men in the streets =
Is this the spirit of free republicanism Are
the people to be ridden over in this way, and
is every feeling of decency TO be thus out
ragged Ii so, let the man who openly ex-
pressed the regret that the ball through John
| A. Poor's hat did not go two inches lower,
Join hands with this Louis 0. Cowan, and tell
the people at once that they are in favor of a
MILITARY DEsPoTIsM. But. gentlemen, it is a
consolation that the cheers were rery faint
chiefly proceeding from Cowan, Carleton, and
! Wiley, and few of the more thoughtless
rabble in the outskirts of the meeting. The
ladies-God bless them-with the hearts Of
mothers, wives, sisters and daughters, over
flowing with sympathy and affection, were
deaf to the damnable call Of this barbarous
wretch; no handkerchiefs were waved, nc
hands were clapped in token of approval, but
a tear of sympathy was seen 10 moisten many
an eye.

Democratic Mass Meeting.

This meeting at Columbian Hall on Satur-
attended it, was perfectly successful. The
time was unfavorable, being Saturday, and no
unusual facilities were afforded to strangers
who were DESTROYS to attend. The meeting
was called to order about halt-past two, and
in very few minutes the spacious Hall was
comfortably filled. During the address of
Judge Wells there were about five hundred
present-not less than from three 10 four huff
.dred nearly the whole afternoon. The Tri-
bune has represented the number at about one
hundred and ifty-some nearer the truth than
its figures in relation to the fusion affair in
Portland, but lis statements will surprise no
one who remembers that it is the recognized
organ of party which is under oath to lie |!
The meeting was very enthusiastic, and we
have not seen the first person who went away
dissatisfied, except those who went as oppo-
nenfs, for the sole PURPOSE of hearing some
thing TO dislike. The speech of Judge WELLS,
which was The speech of the occasion, was one
of the happiest efforts, and one of the most
thorough, searching and keen arguments we
have ever had the pleasure of listening to. 1t
went to the root of the matter, and was a mas
terly expose Of the dangerous tendency of the
fusion leaders, and of the fearful inroads made
upon the constitutional rights of the citizens
by the acts of the last Legislature. During
the delivery of his speech, which occupied
more than two hours, Judge Wells was fire.
quently interrupted by long, hearty and deaf
ening cheers. 1t seemed as though the good
old times were revived once more, and while
the few fnsionists scattered through the Hall,
sunk deeply into their shirt collars, and their
countenances became tinged beautifully Blue,

Freemen of Maine !

Your annual election is at hand, involving
issues peculiarly local, having no connection
with or bearing upon national politics, and yet,
insteed of being left to decide for yourselves,
and to settle your own affairs in your own
way, the State at this momentis invaded by a
meddlesome host of foreign lecturers, from
New Hampshire, from Massachusetts, from
Connecticut, New York and even Ohio, all bent
upon the single purpose of controlling the
free vote of Maine Are the men of Maine
incapable of selfgovernmentl Are they so
debased as to need the minions of disunon and
abolition from other states TO watch over them
and dictate how they shall vote! Has the far
inland state of Ohio become the fit teacher of
commercial Maine! Have the old federal
and disunion states of Massachusetts and Con-
necticut become our file leaders We protest
against all such foreign interference with the
rights ofthe people, whether Missouri rufians or
free-state nullifers be the aggressors. People
of Maine, think of the degradation to which
the wire-pullers of mis-named republicanism
would subject you. Think of the humiliating
fact that even our state election must be con-
troled by foreign interference-the interfer-
ence of those who have no interest in the can
vass, who are seeking only their own glory
and aggrandizement. Remember that Hale,
and Wade, Banks and Wilson, are now at
tempting for our state what Stringfelow &
Co., have too successfully accomplished for
Kansas

SAMUEL WELLS.
Who is to be Cheatedt

Immediately following the convention re-
Gently holden in Portland which nominated
Isaac Reed for Governor, the Tribune of this
civ went into long and labored expose Of
that party, all designed to prove the detection
of the s;raight-out wings and their alleged in
consistency, and to show that the new fusion
or so called republican platform was precisely
the same as that upon which the wings had
waged battle against the democrats. Mr.. Nor
rill was proved to be the exponent Of pure, un-
changed whiggery. and all the speckled hosts
which now rally around him were declared TO
be fighting only for the whig principles of
years past. Well, stick pin there.
In the same paper of the 18th INST, we have
an account of the great fusion meeting in Port
land on the day previous. Speaking of the
speech of Hon. n p Banks, the Tribune says
editorially, sc He showed that the democratic
doctrines for rhich The democrats had commended
in gears past, ,oere the same as those of The re-
publican party al The present time, and called
upon all true democrats to go for principle in
the great struggle in this state.
" He sho,ced'' this, did het Then he
showed that your delectable sheet has been
grossly guilty of an attempt to mislead the
whig party. Your sheet has stoutly contend
ed that the republican party of to-day is the
,oMg party of years past, while Mr.. Banks
showed tina, the republican party is the demo
cratic party of old. The Tribune in its efforts
to set history right but re-echoes the statements
of Messrs. Kent, Washburn, Fessenden, &c.,
and, taken in connection with the statements
of Messrs. Banks, Nourse, &c., only go to
demonstrate what choice set of doube-faced
political demagogues are now attempting TO
ride into power on the hobby-horse of aboli-
ton. There is cheat somewhere and all
must see it. The old parties were too dis
tinct, and their landmarks too we'll defined TO
allow any of the modern republicans to cheat
the honest voters into the belief that the prin-
ciples of both are tremendously represented in
the bastard party of to-day. The whole move
ment only shows what precious set OF polit-
ical hucksters are now combined to pull the
wool over the eyes of the honest voters, but
the fraud in transparent and will be exposed,
and the chicanery and wicked Vaccinations of
the corrupt and unholy alliance will fall to the
ground. The authors of the fraud will yet be-
come kissing and byeword, and truth and
right will eventually triumph.

Mr.. O'DoNNgLL's SPEECH.

In the evening the masses rerassembled, and
James O'Donnell, Esq, of Portland, was
called to the stand and addressed the audience
for upwards of an hour, upon the political top
les of the day ably and eloquently, eliciting
the rapturous applause of the meeting. We
cannot do justice 20 his able address, but will
give brief synopsis Of his speech -
He went on TO speak Of the position occu-
pied by Gov. Morrill, in 1853 at Bangor, as a
strenuous advocate for PilLsJury' s nomination,
and his subsequent deserton Of the nominee
because he failed of obtaining pledge to be
retained as Land Agent; his subsequent
scheming at the temperance convention repre-
senting the Democratic nominee as an ultra
antl-Malne law man his consequent nomina-
tion as a temperance candidate for Governor :
his further efforts TO call free soil and self
styled Democratic Convention at Portland
endorsing the national administration his
taking the stump in his own behalf, and his
final defeat in the Legislature. All these
matters were wildly brought up and the de-
ceptions, bargains and intrigues to make him
Governor and Mr.. Fessenden Senator, were
sketched In mastery manner, but the result
was that Gov. Crosby succeeded, and Morrill,
failed. The speaker next alluded to second
attempt TO accomplish the object of MorriIls
ambition, which finally proved successful, by
trickery in the House Of Representatives, hav-
ing bare majority on joint ballot, and there
by filling the Senatorial vacancies with men
pledged to make Morrill, Governor. at all
events. This being effected, promises of re-
form were freely promulgated, and great
boasts were uttered that the Legislature would
carry out the wishes of the people in enacting
the best liquor law ever passed in Maine, and
other laws OF vast utility. The fusion party
had their Governor, Senate, House and Coun-
cil-every branch of the State government,
and what did they accomplish for the people
what for the party which elevated them to
power9 answer, nothing but nischieuous
Misunderstanding (howerer unintentional-
ly) sure blow at all the interests of the peo-
pie, which is now being re6uked; and as for
the party-the Morrill, party-it has been
wholly ignored; its friends (the democratic
portion) deceived, and the whig appointments
throughout the entire State, made BY Gov.
Crosby, ratified and confirmed with few ex-
ceptions. 1t was in vain Gov. Morrill, was
called on to keep his pledges, to remove the
straight wings appointed BY Gov. Crosby he
peremptorily refused The Morrill, demo
