On the other hand. like all Just men
thus assailcd. Mr. Hamlin has friends
who will stand by him, and whose cx-
ertions, although not animated by so
vigorous passion, will as completely
accomplish the easier task. Besides
Mr.. Hamlin is personally visiting his
constituents, crowds of whom daily lis
ten to his voice. He always wins the
popular respect when he goes oa an er-
rand of this kind, for he is gentleman
OF democratic instincts, open and honest
purposes. and great good sense.
As Maine is about to speak to her sis
ter states she will say that the govern
ment of our common confcdcracy should
coniinc itself to constitutional objects,
and not devote its hcrculcan energies
to the extension over their virgin terri
tories of a perm cious institution and
within the ranks of the organization
that uttors 'his voice for Maine, exists a

Now it cane to pass, in the year
eighteen hundred and ffty-six, of the
reign of Frank Pierce, the son Of Jchoy-
akin, of the tribe of Wildcats, that
there sprang forth many political broils
and party divisions; some of which fa-
vored the administration Of King Pierce.
some of King Alcohol, while others WISH
ed for Fremont and Jessie, Of the house
Of Benton, to preside over the destinies
of the nation.
Now the names were these for
Buck and Brcck., Wildcats and Hunk

Wings, and dough faces for King Al

l2o,0 900 and upward valiant mn, SO
thai the number for Fremont did out

came to pass that these several divisions
were at war. one with the other. and
fought many battles, some by the word
ofmouth and some with Sharp's rifles,
while others, Of the tribe of Buck. and
Brocll, were sent Is spies throughout
all the land of Doshcn. and of ) 4ccafap-

and there was one Lewis sent to the land
Of DosAen, whose sirname was -,

sought to turn the hearts of the people
after Buck. and Breck.

Shall Hannibal Hamlin be Sustained ?
The manly course taken by Senator
| Iianlin ef Maine, has commended him
to all lovers of freedom and Justice
throughout the Union. He has broken
the bonds which united him to a corrupt
and degenerate party; he has dared to be
honest. generous rnd true; he has stood
by the general opinion Of the North, as
opposed to the sectional, oligarcial opin-
ion Of the Cincinnati Platform and now
it is for the people Of Maine to aay
whether this man, courageous enough in
these days of mendacity to speak the
truth and to burst asunder the shackles
of party, shall receive that hearty sup
port to which he is entitled The Re
publicans of Maine have noble cause
we hope they are working nobly to vim
dictate it. We know the discourage
mcnts under which they labor. We
know the bold, bad game which the
Wilder Farlcys and the Eyanses are
playing. We know how, night and day,
these renagades are working to get up
little tail or following, with which they
hope to lend eclM to their Democratic
party. We know the length and depth
Of that wretched thimble-rig; and we do
think that the people of Maine owe it to
themselves to pat upon it such burn
ing mark of their disapprobation that the
dodge Will never be tried again.
