J CORRESPONDENT of The Portland
AdrertiSer, gives a glowing account of a
Republican meeting held at Alfred,
Maine, on the 23d inst, and says:
"The speech was most enthusiastically
received The number present being
larger than could be accommodated with
in doors, the speaking was in the open
air. Upon the platform sat a venerable
man of ninetg-eight years, who fought in
oldcn times for those 'inalienable rights
for which we are now contcndin@, who
voted for George Washington in 1888,
and has voted at every Presidential elec-
tion since, and who, if God spares his life,
a0iU gote for Abrdhona Lincoln, IN No
0em6er meet. He thinks he has not de
parted from the faith of the fathers -
The name of this old patriot is Amaiiah

burn brightly here. Old York will do
her whole duty"

THE Aroostook (Me.) Herald says !;
We heard conversation the other
day between a Breckinridge man and an
old Democrat who had avowed his inten-
tion of voting for Lincoln. I've always
been a Democrat, and I've been reading
and studying, and | have come to the
conclusion that the Democratic party
don't stand where it did in 1850, and I'm
going to vote for /" Honest Old Abe. ."
