As on sinilar occasions, we do not ex.

weather is warm and the sun at noon.
day anything but pleasant Here at
midsummer, were there an election
for Governor, 1t would be unreasona-
BILE to expect any other citizens to raj
ly to the polls, than such as might
have Offices promised them by the
candidates. If the sense of the PEG.
pie. is SO often asked for, by those L.
gaiy empowered to make laws; ii
would be well for the next legislature
to make some provision for travelling
polls - TO require the Judges and
Consstabulary to go about with the
box, "Plains fashion stop before
each mans door ard blow an oyster

and vote. Should he be engaged, and

taken, on the removal Of the seat Of 90
vernment, and this too in the very
face of what is supposed to be their
sense, embodied 10 tpo constitutions.
The people will not be harassed by
such bogus legislating; and it their
sense is to be taken bi-monthly or
semi-annually, some provision Of law,
must be made to take round the tin
box !; in order that we may have as
much Of the sense as can. be. We
shall never be content to submit to
laws made by one half Of the whole
sense Of the people, aud there are
number of republicans 10 the same
category.
Friends and fellow citizens, the
principle is wrong; bare majority
have no right to make laws for the
minority and compel them by force of
arms, into submission; and certainly
they have no right to pass ordinances
regulating social habits, which can
only be governed by the big CHER moral
law.
In defence of the great principle
involved in this question, we are will
ing to have the Comet called the
"Grog Shop Advocate, and the Drunk.
ards Friend;" because we feel that
the imbecile laws of Maine. on the Ii.
quor question, are revolutionary in
their tendency and open wide the
door to civil war and bloodshed. LOU
