The Republican Representative Conven-
ton held at Columbia, the Goth instant was
the largest delegate convention ever held in
the Sixth District Evidence of the pre-
yailing and almost universal interest felt in
he result of its deliberations was shown in
the large arrival Of the delegates at the place
Of meeting the night before the Convention.
Never before We're so many members of po-
litical gathering of the kind, on hand 50
early. Mr.. Wilson, the gentlemanly land
lord had his own quarters as full as New
York Irish tenant house, and had also laid
under contribution many private houses of
the village. His efforts to accommodate his
company, succeeded admirably, and much
praise is his due for the same
In the evening, some one called meeting
Of the Hancock delegation for consultation
Not much positive action was had, nor
probably was it intended 1t seemed for
mutual interchange of views, and for inquiry
as 10 the action of former conventions as to
q AdAt IN HAt'A lt'-tiAiiE van
didate Nothing very definite was elected.
The meeting adjourned 70 the morning. At
the adjournel meeting the names Of five per-
sons were voted for, and thcsc gentlemen
were u he suggested to the Convention as
candidates. In the list, 5. P. Brown Esq.
Of 0rland was largely in advance Of others,
Kt,ps, no. &
the no delegates participated in this meet
ing.
The Convention was called 10 order at
precisely ten o'clock, 10y W. Il. Smith Esq
Of Machias, chairman of the District Com
mittee upon whose motion Rufus Buck Esq.
Of Bucksport was unanimously elected rs
temporary Chairman Mr. Buck addressed
the meeting briefly and pertinently.
While waiting for the committees on ere
dentials and pcrmenent organization to re-
port the convention was addressed by Messrs.
Livermorc of PASSPORT, Caldwell of East
Maehias, Sp0fford Of Deer Isle and Talbot OF
Machias. Without subtracting the least
from the able and eloquent efforts of the
other gentlemen, we must say. that of MIR.
Caldwell of East Machias struck us as bein.
peculiarly happy, high toned and able. The
entire absence Of any appeal to the prejudiccs
or the passions Of his auditors, and the tc-
nacity with which he chung to the discussion
Of principles, rather than of men, made this
first effort Of the gentleman before Con-
srrssional Convention find many warm eulo-
gists Mr.. Spoford was happy, pointed
and ready. He is good speaker and ought
to Do good service in this campaign. Mr.
Talbot is always able, as Mr.. Liycrmorc il
always earnest and pointed.
The East Machias Republicans came To
the Convention, or rather forty of the large
number present, in - tlat-boat' built for
the occasion, placed on wheels and drawn by
eight splendid horses Flags and notices
helped to complete this unique travelling We
hicle. They were accompanied by a band
of music
The best of feeling prevailed throughout,
and the controlling sentiment Of the meeting
was, that all local ana personal feelings
should be subordinated to the good, and for
the success of the cause. The strength Of
Republican organization lies in the mora

Mg. Error in passing through neigh

Of men earnestly engaged in conversation,
and my curiosity was excited and stopped
a moment to listen, when the following struck
my ear - The Republicans do not eIpec,
president. They knew there would be q
division in the party it Seward was nomina-
ted, SO they put up Lincoln whom the peo-
pie do not know, without expecting to elect
him. As for Mr. Hamlin, he is the last man
in the world TO be nominated One man

the noble nomination OF Lincoln and llamlin
