Democracy of the respective districts of
these gentlemen have endorsed their con-

Yesterday morning we received the fol-

Newbarg, containing the gratifying intelli-
geuce that be had overtaken the guerrilas
who had plundered his little town, and
routed them. One of the thieves who had
pillaged his house was killed and ten of
his companions captured. The taking of
prisoners seems to have been the only mis-
take made by the Captain. But here is bis

I "A strange feeling did that rough. cross

something which he had never felt before.
And strange look did his wife give him as
he said. Peg, Farmer Green has killed me,
He said he would, and he has done it,
Yes. the 'enemy was killed without the
loss Of life. OF one drop Of blood. He went
the next morning to confess his ingratitude

There is the greatest difference in the
world between conquering BY power and
conquering BY kindness. The former is
like building dam across stream of water.
1t may stop its foa for little while, but
presently the dam may give way, then the
stream will rush 90 with more force and fury
than ever. Conquering by kindness is like
driving up the springs which feed the steam.
Conquering'by power is like keeping hon

harm BY changing his nature and turning
him into lamb. Best Thing.

among the few States that have entirely filled
the quotas of troops demanded by both oI
the calls Of the President for 10000 linen.
Under the FIRST cal! Maine was asked Tor 1000
men. Within six weeks sho forwarded five
new regiments of 1000 each. and sent $500
recruits to the old regiments-thus going LOG
beyond the demand. Under the last call for
drafted men Names quota was nine thous-
and six hundred. She raised the whole OF
these by volunteering and the men were all
in camp by the fifteenth inst. About 5000
at each Of the cities Of Portland, Augusta
and Bangor.
Before these troops were rnised Maine bad
sent to the field fifteen regiments Of infantry,
one regiment OF cavalry, six batteries of ar.
tillery, and one company Of sharpshooters.-
These regiments and companies, with re-
cruits that had been sent to them before the
late calls, had absorbed Is. 200 men. With
the IL 100 men under the new calls above
mentioned, Maine has contributed $4,000
men to the Union armies. Sho has, in addi-
ton. sent nearly or quito 5000 men to the
navy, making 40, 600 men Mt least that she
has contributed to the defense Of tho Union

The Proclamation and the work to DO
Done.

We arc not among those who believe that
the recent proclamation Of the President will
make the work of overcoming the rebel ar
my,in the first instance any the less arduous
and difficult than before. Neither are we
among that class of croakers, who will have
it, that the issuing Of the proclamation will
so incense the rebels that they will fight
with more desperation, and thus render the
task Of defeating them more difficult.
Notwithstanding the stand taken by the
President on the emancipation issue, our sue
cess must still depend upon the good fortune
which our armies shall meet with, in bat
Ting against the armed hosts Of traitors
Battles must be fought and wou-pcrhaps
some will be lost--beiore we shall behold the
rebellion crushed.
But we do believe that when our armies
shall defeat the enemy, and penetrate into
his country, that then the victory will be
more decisive in our favor and more disas-
trous to him, with the enforcement Of the
Presidents proclamation, than it otherwise
would be. But till important victories are
won by the Union army, victories that will
tell in and Of themselves, the issuing of proc
lamations will be Of no avail. And we can
SEQ no reason why it will be less difficult to
