of Bluehill have recently been edited
with Demon hlg Speech by John \.
Peters of Bangor, being one of his $4,000
speeches. 1t would be interesting and
amusing too, to follow him in his arrant
and willy sophism From the drift of his
remarks, the uninitiatcd would very readi-
ly suppose that the National Republicans
were solely and entirely State party, uu-
known outside of Maine. 1t was most
puerile attempt TO prove that the .Black
Republicans were a fusion of Abolition
lists, Maine Law men, Know Nothings and
Ministers. The foulest blot" upon our
parry according to tho bought speaker
was, that the Maine abolitionsts were
bound to vote the american Republicn"
ticket. But alas for the speakers igno-
rance! Had he been posted up in the
Democracy which he labored to establish
and propagate, he would not have spent
an hour in endeavoring to manufacture
Col. John c. Fremont into an abolitionst
and foreigner. The following slip from
an article in the Age will inform the
gentleman OF the opinions of that portion
of the Press
"Col. Fremont is known to the country
as sound National Democrat - y
Col Fremont is South Carolinian by
birth and rearing, He is too much at
taohed to the Union to join any party
which does not keep step to its music
The following extract from copy of the
Bangor Democrat" is respectfully COM
mcnded 10 the Speakers notice.
&c, |. Fremont is and ever has been
firm national Democrat. His whole life
has been spent in adding to the Glory and
Renown of his common country The
conQu2ror of California, as he was styled
by Pres Polk when he offered to restore
him to his rank, after the unjust finding of
the Court Martial of 1878, will be found
in the impending sectional strife where he
ever has b. eu--on the side of the Union ;"
The Bangor journal" will inform him
that "Fremon's Patriotism has been too
well demonstrated on the battle field. Of
California te allow Of his now sinking in-
to narrow scctionalist," and the "Saco
Democrat says-Col Fremont by all his
actions has shown himself one of the first
men in the country. His sympathies are
all with the Democracy, and his attach
ment to the Union without regard 10
North or South, cannot be questioned Tor
a moment The Bath Tribune with
genuine truthfune $ informs US that "6ol
Fremont is devoted friend of the Ameri-
can Union
Bat the audience enjoyed themselves
much Il. e. large majority of thcni) not
withstanding the falsehood, duplieity
praciiccd by "our foreman \ week
previous to the evening occupied BY Mr.
Peters, at a speech by Bon Bradbury an
attempt was made by sone six or eight
Of the "unterrfed" to raise an ZAP
lause,' which proved magnificent Ia L
ure. Thi, taught the 1.-TWO wings" Of the
pro slayeryists to use a little precau-
ton; and on the evening of the last speak
er, hi Ell band of ':border rufians from
Penobsco' Scdgwick &C., to tie number

to aid in the tremendous cheering.
Bought applause is really new thing
here how much was gained By it let

The nerve and muscle Of the frt emen Of

hand, and fund wanting may be the
unavoidable decision. Yours truly.
