THE RELEASE OF SLIDELL AND MASON.
Prentice, in his Louisville Journal, remarks
that
eMason and Slidel hsve been invaluable to
the United States. We gavs them in exchange
for the neutral freedom of the seas, to secure
which has been the object of our earnest en-
desvor since we were frst nation. The rebel
commissioners are the debased coin which we
have paid out and thus secured to the pacific
commerce of the world perpetual exemption
from seizure and search by heligerent powers.
This is putting Mason and Slidell to better
use than OBTAINING them in Fort Warren, or
even hanging them. Who would not be de-
delighted to see tho most atrocious murderer
pardoned uudor the gibbet, if, by his pardon,
the world could evermOre be exempted from
tho crime o. murderl"

assaults as harmless as charge ofpgeon shot
upon the Monitor, but we will not pass by the
above without, once for all, stamping, as a
groundless and silly falsehood, the covert
charge that God. Andrew proposed conditions
on which Massachusetts, would furnish enlist
ments. We have seen this groundless charge
before made, and in more open and direct
manner, and on former occasion, and in 9TH
er columns we gave prompt denial to the al
legation, and we now repeat that denial.
Gov. Andrew expressed full confidence to
the President that the call upon his State
would be met, and met within sixty days: at
the same time he did suggest that it was not
calculated to raise the ardor of Massachusetts
men to feel that they were to be used for the
protection of the property of men in rebellion,
while their own sons were being treated by
those same rebels with barbarity that would
disgrace savage. This was the substance of
his condition." coupled as it was with fur
Their suggestion, that if the slaves of rebels
could be used against those rebels, as they now
are against the loyal army, the hearts of the
men of Massachusetts would be filed with in
spiration :. their faith in success would be stim-
ulated, and recruits would press forward with
increased numbers; and we have yet to learn
that the people of Maine as well as Massachu-
sets will not gay Amen to this suggestion.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1862-07-09

The reporter for the Argus. referring to the
Windham celebration, thus speaks of Gov
Andrew
His eloquence was pathetic, and moved the
vast audience, at times, to tears. He then
went on to national affairs, seeing no hope Tor
our nation but in the downfall of slavery. In
principles avowed he chimed with Judge Da-
Wis, but his remarks concerning the rebels
were characteristic of broad heart. His clos
ing appeal TO the mothers and fathers present,
respecting their lost and loved ones AT war.
was truly sublime. He occupied one hour and
one quarter, and seemed to please all. After
his speech the masses dispersed to their homes.
The above is a text upon which the paper
referred to comments as follows -
Our reporters account of what should have
been an interesting convocation at Windham.
is long enough to show that the occasion was
seized upon by the orator. Gov Andrew, as
suitable for sowing some abolition seed for a
second crop like that now being harvested
around Richmond. This is the same patriot
whose attempt to dictate TO Gen. Butler the
mode of carrying on the war, SO completely
exposed the Governors parts to the country,
the same wnp subsequently attempted like
thing with the President, stating such condi-
tons for enlistments as would bring out Mas
sachusetts men-condtions upon which Maine
could not raise half regiment. We cannot
admire the taste of man who, when the ueo-
pie of Windham would strew some mementoes
on the graves OF their ancestors, seizes the oc-
casion for an abolition harangue.
IfGov Andrew ''seemed 10 please ALL" who
has authorized the Argus to find fault with
him, and complain of the remarks he saw fit
to make? He was invited to Windham by
those who knew him well, and there he spoke
in way to please and satisfy the Windham
people; but because he didn't fall down and
reverence negro slavery, or at least, because
he saw in it, great obstacle in the way of ma
tional integrity, progress, and prosperity, he
must be held up as lacking in taste, turbulent
in spirit, and CONDITIONAL in his willingness
to respond to the calls of the country for aid
We are not disposed to defend the honored
chief magistrate Of the old Bay State agains,

HARRIsoN's LANDING.-The point of land
now occupied by Gen. McClellan's army on
the James River is known as Harrison's Land
ing, and is so called from its having been the
property of President Harrison's father.
The James River here reaches one of its nu-
merous bends, and this curve enables our gun
boats to enfilade the peninsula both at the
right and left wings of our army, thus protect
ing both tanks, while the artillery guards the
centre of our line.
Military men are perfectly confident that
Gen. Mcclellan can hold this position until re-
Inducements reach sufficient to enable him to
move on Richmond. The position of the ground
is much more healthy than that of the river or
the Chickalominy swamps.

case from Gorham, Sanitary Commission
2cases from Augusta, for Mrs. c. A. L.

The demands for Hospital Stores from the

the Sanitary Department that the supplies to
comfort our soldiers should be sent forward
without any delay.
Owing to the immense number of the army
that are now sick and wounded, the department
cannot supply the pressing wants. 1t is hoped
that every family in the State will contribute
of the articles needed, such as sheets, cotton
shirts, cloth drawers, mosquito nets, bandages,
lint, towels, handkerchief, &c, &c.
Any and all articles forwarded to Portland
will be sent to any point where our troops are
located.
