The Old .Kennebec District,

The District which Hon. JAMES G. BLAINE
Is elected to represent in the XXXVIIIth
Congress, is one of such persistent steadiness
in political principle, that we deem it worth
while to recall some facts in its history.
In the present apportionment it ranks as the
Third District in the State-but it is better
known as the "Kennebec Districtr-as this
county is the largest of those composing it,
and the one from which it derives its steady
Republican majority.
1t is a fact of some interest and significance,
that ever since Maine was admitted to the
Union, the District which included Kennebec
county has been carried by large majorites
against the Democratic organization. As Nd-
tiondl Republican, as Wing, and now as Re-
publican, the District has been uniform and
overwhelming in its majorities.
From 1919 to 1924, JOSHUA CUsHMAN of
Vassalboro', represented the District He dis
tinguished himself by the zeal and ability
with which he resisted the Missouri Compro-
mise.
PELEG SPRAGUE, at present u. S. District
Judge of Massachusetts, succeeded Mr.. Cush-
man in 1924, and remained in the House till
1929, when he was transferred to the u. S.
Senate as the successor of Mr.. Chandler.
GEORGE EVANS succeeded Mr.. Sprague in
1929 after very exciting contest against Ruel
Williams. Mr.. Evans was continuously re-
elected from the District until 1841, when he
in turn was transferred to the Senate as the
successor of Judge Ruggles.
Since Mr.. Evans term of service, the Dis
trict has been represented successively by the
following gentlemen, viz: DAVID BRONSON
LUTHER SEVERANCE; HIRAM BELcHER
JOHN OTIs; ROBERT GooDENow; SAMUEL
T. BENSON FREEMAN III. MORSE and ANsoN
+. MORRILL,. Each one of these gentlemen was
elected by large majority over the Democrat
ic candidate
Mr.. BLAINE is elected by some three thou
SAND majority over Mr.. Gould = with some
scattering majority for Mr.. Smith, of Wiscas-
set. Had there been any special effort made
by the Republicans, the majority for Mr.. b.
could have been well nigh doubled. II is
large enough, however, for practical purposes,
and large enough to maintain the ancient and
goodly character of the old "Kennebec Dis
trict."-[Ken. Journal.

Gallantry of the Maine Seventh.

CHAMBERsBURG, Pa, Sept. %, 1862.
Another great battle has been fought in the
vicinity of Sharpsburg, Md, and the rebels
have been driven. 1t is certainly refreshing
after such long catalogue of disasters to wit
ness the defeat of the redoutable Stonewall
Jackson. The contest was determined and the
result decisive. Some of the most brilliant
charges were made that have occurred during
the war. Among them was the gallant, yet
fatal charge Of the Seventh Maine" This
Regiment was ordered to drive the enemy from
strong position about 900 yards in front of
the line Of battle. Every private in the ranks.
knew that Brigade of the enemy was massed
there with a battery Of artillery, and that an
awful blunder had been made, but obedience
Is the first duty Of a soldier. The order was
given to the regiment to advance. On they
went across the field under shower of bull
lets, halting twice to return the fire of the en-
emy. After halting the second time to deliver
their fire. the Regiment rushed forward with
such cheer as only the Seventh" can give,
driving the enemy before them. The rebels
now took refuge behind a stone wall and open
ed CALLING fire Of musketry. At this point,
the Regiment had arrived within range of one
of our batteries, which had been playing upon
the enemy, and not aware of the advance our
forces continued firing. The rebels opened
their battery with grape and canister. The
regiment seemed now devoted to destruc-
tion, yet the men delivered their fire with
steadiness and terrible effect as they moved by
&ba laft IN. in tla of
Thence through corn field by circuitous
route, they returned to their old position in
line of battle. Not man had struggled. All
that the bullets had spared were there; but
how thinned the ranks! Only sixty-five men
now constitute the gallant Seventh Maine"
Many brave soldier has fallen either killed or
wounded. Acting Adjutant, w. L. Haskell,
mounted on a white house, was conspicuous
mark for the enemy's bullets. "Old Whitley"
received three shots while his rider was shot
through both knees. Lieutenant Brown and
Goodwin fell, bravely cheering on the men of
their respective commands. They have con-
summated anoble life by the most gallant death
that man can die. Captains Cochrane and
Cook, and Its. Shorey and Emery, wounded
in the early part of the action. Capt. Jones
received slight wound. To this might be
added long list Of the rank and file that had
suffered more or less, from the missels of des-
truction. Suffice it to say that all behaved
with the most becoming gallantry, and nobly
sustained the reputation of their native State.
But we cannot forbear to mention the names
of Major Hyde, commander of the Regiment,
and 1t. Haskell acting Adjutant, who were
everywhere present, controlling directing and
stimulating the men. INDEX
