over the tops Of the houses. As it Is, with all
the appliances which science is enabled to rem

batteries. The troops stationed there have
been removed to higher and drier quarters.

Tho Seventh Regiment.

We chcerfully give the following from the
Press, place in our columns:
at is no disparagement to any regiment
in this State to saw that no regiment in the
service has wona higher place upon the page
Of history for courage and endurance than
.'the gallant Seventh" Ii has been engag'
ed in ten battles, and on every field it has
nObly sustained the reputation Of the sons OF
Maine.
This regiment. as is well known, is now in
camp at "Camp Abraham Lincoln" having
been sent home to rest and recruit, and to
I'll up its sadly thinned ranks. We should
be glad to see il filed up 50 that IL might
again resume its place in the foremost ranks
and participate in the coming forward move
ments now plainly indicated. II was pecu.
liarly fortunate in the selection OF It's Field
officers and in the entire absence OF all cliques
and parties, both among the Staff and Line
officers, which have 80 sadly impaired the
efficiency of many other regiments. The
officers have been united. and labored together
for the best good OF the men under their
charge. Besides this. promotions are made
for meritorious services, and the private in
the ranks may expect to rise If, by his con-
duct, he deserves 1t.
Those who have seen service, and know
whereof they speak, are very decided in ex'
pressing their convictions that 1t is much
better for persons enlistlng now to enter an
old regiment rNher than new one, for the
reason that they can have all the advantage,
accruing from the experience OF the OLD
members without having to endure unneces
sary hardship. They more rapidly fall into
the habits Of soldier. and moro quickly
learn how to be such by being associated
with old soldiers.
We hope. in view Of these facts, that the
authorities. in towns whose quotas are mol
yet full, will act in conjunction with the re
,ruitins officer Of the regiment, and thus
not only furnish the full number required o.
them, but aid in filing the ranks OF thin
veteran regiment, 80 that il may again hasten
to the seat Of war. there to strike heavy
blows for the Constitution and the Union. v
The Union and journal. [volume] (Biddeford, Me.) 1858-1882, 1862-11-21
No Specific Reason.

1.-THE paper put forth with tho signature
Of Gen. Halleck does not pretend to give
any specific reason for the removal, nor does
it afford any justification for it: il is simply
thrown out as material for the partisan use
of those who have long been clamoring for
Gen. McClellan's removal"
The above is the very nico way the Demo
crat has Of disposins Of the explanation oil
Gen. Halleck to Secretary Stanton. in rela'
ton to the removal Of Gen. Mcclellan.
It would occur to most people that fair
ness would lead the Democrat to give Id
readers "the paper put forth with the sigma
ture of Gen. IIalleck, that they might learn
that Gen. McClellan's unreasonable disobe.
dlencc Of orders afforded one specific reason
at least, for his removal. As to Its being
thrown out for BIPARTISAN use." 1t is vel
known that this Gen. Halleck is q Democrat
and he sends letter Of explanation to q
Democratic Secretary of War, in regard tC
the conduct Of Democratic General.
The Democrat will find it difficult to make
the people believe that Gen. Halleck is en-
gagged in putting forth papers for partisan
use. rather than for what he conceives to b
the best interests Of the country. II hispa
pers bear hard upon any party it is the fault
Of the party, not his.

Expeditions.

We arc told that Gen. Banks is about or
Canning an expedition for Texas.
We do not believe in the policy Of such
IN expedition at the present time. So Tar
forth as having any practical effect in crush
ing tho rebellion, his expedition might as
we'll 20 to Oregon as to Texas. Gen. Banks
is needed in Virginia, at the head OF as largo
a force as can be given him. Every nerve
should DO strained, every thing should be
brought to bear to insure the taking OF Rich
mond, and that right speedily.
Carlton, the trustworthy correspondent OF
the Boston Journal, thus discourses:
"Burnside is advancing upon Richmond.
He has good army-a large army, but
have trustworthy evidence that he will en-
counter an army quite Us large Us his own.
The rebels are in their own country-on
their own ground. They will have the in
side OF the circle. Position is in their favor.
Can Burnside expect 10 enter Richmond
against force equal to his own unless he Is
aided? lie moves away from his supplies at
an Indictment season, with liability to sudden
storms and muddy roads. Ii is the plainest
dictate OF common sense that there should
DO a cooperating force south Of Richmond.
We have tho troops. We have the gun
boats. We can push force up the james
river or from Suffolk, cut the great line OF
railroad leading to Weldon and all the
south, carry Fort Darling ut the point OF
the bayonet, Rosecrans will soon cut the
great Western artery in Tennessee, and then,
with two great armies pressing on the head
and heart of the Confederacy, we can hope
20 crush out the vitality. We have the
troops TO do this, and yet we have an expo

Better. by Ear, let Gen. Butler, with his

ton dues, and shall continue to do so from

they shall receive their bills. Immediately remit
us the amount. By so doing they will enable
us to make the paper more interesting and use
