We congratulate the conservative men of
Massachusetts on their gain and prospects.
Could they act together they would make a
very formidable antagonist tor the Republi-
can party.
In Dorchester, Mass, Capt. Ebenezer
Eaton, seventy three years old, was elected
to the Legislature by the Democrats. The
Boston Post says thas he is the first Demo-
crat that has been elected from Dorchester
in % years.
This comes, no doubt, from putting the
best men on the ticket. Democrats would
succeed oftener, if ther would Away stick
to this rule.-Jour. Com. Jr.

Ma. EDITOR Permit me to say few
words to the readers of the Journal in re-
ply to Mr. Dexters communication of Sat
urday morning Being in company with
Capt. Dexter ON Monday evening, June 90
spoke to him in regard to an excursion on
his boat, and he Informed me that on "a any
Monday evening" lac would take pleasure
party down the river, returning about
twelve o'clock, P. NJ, provided would
give him notice a few days previous. ile
also stated that he did not wish to make
money out of an excursion trip. but would
go expecting 10 make friends for his boat.
With this understanding spoke TO ten or
twelve gentlemen that generally take an nc
tive part on such occasions, and they were
very anxious that we should have an ex-
cursion on the evening Of July 4th. The
following Thursday morning, when the
Bowen was in port, one Of those gentlemen
and myself, representing the committee of
arrangements, called on the CAPTAIN and
made every arrangement with him for the
trip As We were leaving he told US to issue
tickets and get up nice party, and that he
would pay the printing. -..a
Accordingly we ordered two hundred and

distributed the day following, had il not
been for some assertions made by Mr. Por-
ter, the only authorized steamboat agent
of this place. lie asserted that he was the
only man authorized to get up an excursion
on the Charley Bowen. When the boat
came up again on Monday, Capt. Dexter and
| Mr. Porter called to see Inc in regard to the
matter, and told them that we had aban-
4 doned the idea of distributing the tickets
and that they could manage the affair ia
/ suit themselves
Mr. Dexter also states in his communica-
ton that but one gentleman called on him 70
make arrangements for the trip. In making
this statement, he asserts that which hs
! knows is not true. We did not think i,
necessary for q committee of twenty -fv,
or thirty to wait on the officers of a small
boat TO make arrangements for an excursion
trip of a few lours.
