We beg the Machias Union not t. get

Fuller played some tricks up here long time
ago, which entities him to all the dcscrip.

had better come up into Hancock aud look
over the record. before going into the gut

How about Mr.. Fuller declaring in CAL

not an anti-Lecompton Democrat, while Mr..
Bradbury declares that he is, to those who
are inclined to think that that is the most
honest course.
a good democrat says that Bion pitched
into Buchanan while stopping in Ellsworth
this week. How can the Union support
the man that condemns Buchanan, or is it
all sham?
Would it not be as well to spend the time
necessary to white wash Mr.. Fuller. in rec

ment officials and Mr.. Bradbury in this can
vas? 1t will leave you precious little time

Serenade.

The Ellsworth Brass Band having been
prevented from paying Hon. Bion Bradbury
the compliment of a serenade on Tuesday
night on account of the shower, attended to
that pleasing duty Wednesday evening at
the Ellsworth House Mr.. Bradbury $
friends had made the necessary arrangements
to show the generosity of their nominee for
Congress, and to have the affair pass off with
eciat. Mr.. Bradbury is a gentleman versed
in all the propreties observable on such oe-
casions, and his friends were prompt in Sec
ending his wishes in the matter The Band
played very well indeed, the crowd assem-
bled in front of the House were in the best
possible humor. and the personal and polt-
ical friends of Mr.. Bradbury were smiling
and happy. Sky rockets shot madly through
the air; Roman candles Kissed and darted
lazily in blue colored ofshoots in perpcpdieu-
lar lines, and the ladies smiled in glowing
of rich intellectual treat

He thanked the Band for the complimentary

ment to the place, using almost word for

Mr.. Bradbury closed, by turning the Band

generosity of the distinguished Eastport
gentleman were visible. Geo Peters Esq.

The Congressional Conven-
ton.

The Republican Convention at Columbia
the 10th, was well attended and entirely
harmonious. The weather had been stormy
for number of days, 50 that many who had
intended to do So, were prevented from at
tending. Had the travelling been good, and
the weather propitious, the attendance
would have been almost equal to the one
two years since. when Mr.. Foster was first
nominated, As it was, there were one hun
dred and nineteen delegates present, nearly
double the number at the buchanan Conven-
ton at the same place held just before
The meeting of 50 many under the unfavor-
able circumstances named, augurs well for
the success of the party in the election this
fall. and is the hest evidence of the hold the
principles of the party have upon its mem
bers; and is Il sufficient guarantee that no
double games will ~ down with the people,
and that they do not mean to be cheated
into the support of a smooth, oily politician
by trade, like Mr.. Bradbury.
The voters of this district have in Mr.
Foster a true man. He will be true to his
own honest convictions He will be true to
his pledges. He will be true to the princi-
pies of the party He will ha true to the
interests of navigation. He will by his vote
and influence do all that any man can do. to
protect the numbering, fishing and asricul-
tural interests of Maine. In him the peo-
pie can confde their important business in
terests, feeling and knowing that he will not
betray them, nor play double, nor back down
like Mr.. Fuller, nor sell out like McDon-
aid.
Mr.. Foster was re nominated because the
people demanded it, they having the fullest
confidence in his integrity and ability. The
political pathway trod by Northern professcd
democrats for the past few years has been
so fully strown with violated pledges, dear
interests of high public Government sacri-
feed, to secure personal ends, that the pee
pie now demand honest men to represent
them in the National Capital; and when
they have found such n public servant they
will rally around him with renewed pledges
of affection and support. The times demand
at the national capital, men of high mora
qualities; and the voters will not again will
linsly entrust their political interests in the
hands of men of questionable integrity and
morality, no M re than they would confde
their dearest private interests into such
hands
The best of feeling prevailed thr( ughout
the proceedings, and the utmost confidence
Of success animated the entire delegation-
Spirited and able remarks were made by
Mcssrs Pike of Calais, Liyermore of Eastport,
Talbot of Machlas, WATSON of Franklin,
Spofford of Deer Isle, and DR.. Redman of
Cherryfeld.

THINGS TO BE,
REMEMBERED!!

That the so called democratic
party through its Senator's in
the U. S. Senate, have already re.
pealed the fishing bounty law so
far as that body can do so.
Remember that not solitary
member of that party, either in
the Senate or House, made a
speech or lifted finger to save
the law.
Remember that Hon, Bion
Bradbury is the candidate of that
party for Congress in this Dis
trict, and that whatever profess
sions he may make before elec-
ton, he would never vote against
the party on this question.
Remember that Mr.. Bradbury
prides himself on being a ICON
sistent doughface,' and that he
has always voted and acted with
that branch of the party that
DEMANDS the repeal of the
bounty law.
Remember that Mr.. Bradbury
was an unsuccessful candidate
for the PASSPORT Collectorship,
and an ardent supporter of Mr..
Buchanan's Kansas policy while
he was asking for office.
Remember that all the Lee
compton office holders in the Dis
trict support Mr.. Bradbury for
Congress.
