The War in its new Aspects.

The news for the last few days has been most
cheering to every loyal heart. The recent vic
tories of McClellan's grand army on the Mary
land side of the Potomac, have given fresh
spirits to our people, and encouraged the hope
that the tide has turned, and that henceiorward
the star of victory is to be in the ascendant
For once there seems to be unity Of purpose
and concert of action, and the indications are
that rebellion will receive wounds from which
1t will find it difficult to recover. When the
rebels entered Maryland, they undoubtedly
calculated upon being welcomed by general
outflow of sympathy, and that the fighting men
would flock to their standard by tens of thou
sands How disappointed, then, must they
find themselves; and how dispiriting TO meet
with no response Of welcome, but, on the con-
trary, a general shrinking from their approach!
They find themselves quite as much in an en-
emy's country as did our army when in front
ofRichmond. And it is safe to say that the
disappointment of our people is scarcely less
than that of the rebels. We looked for large
development of the disloyal element in that
State, and the fact is most cheering in its infu-
ence, that the people of Maryland are found
deeply rooted in their attachment to the Un-
ion,and to the old flag which has SO long float
ed over them.
The new phase in the affairs Of the war is
opportune. The people were fast becoming
sick at heart under repeated reyerses. The
army was in danger of decentralization. A
stimulant was necessary. That stimulant we
now have; aud it comes at a season of the
year when any advantage gained may be
safely followed up, without fear of the maari-
Gus swamps so common TO the South. 1t is
hoped the new movement is but the Inaugural
ton of vigorous campaign: and we have
the best reasons for believing that the admin
istration is thoroughly in earnest, and will al
lowno interference with its plans, and will
back its commanders with all the strength that
can be made available.
1t is time to lay aside all personal and jeal-
Gus feelings, and to make the salvation of the
country from actual rebellion, and from possi-
bic anarchy, the one great work of the hour.
In this sign we will surely conquer We don't
care straw who gains glory, if he but honor
ably ,cins it. The people may safely be trusted,
after the struggle is over, to crown with gar
lands the brows of the deserving. The true
patriot will forget all differences but those be-
tween the loyal and the disloyal the friends
and the foes of the country. Those who love
their country, and regard its integrity above
all price, will welcome the adoption of any and
all means that give promise ofsuccess. If any
are adopted that viii not contribute to this re-
suit, brief experience will demonstrate their
inutility, and they will be cast aside.

Letter from AroOstoOk.
PREsoUE ISLE. Sent. 10

PREsQUE ISLE, Sept. u, 1862.
Messrs. Editors Large numbers of the
PRESS, find their way into this remote section
of the State. 1t is lavorite with the people.
The crops in this county are much heavier
than last year, and in quantity and quality
very satisfactory to the farmers. The weather
of late has been favorable for harvesting. vet
help is so scarce owing to the heavy drain the
war has made upon the bone and sinew of
Aroostook, that we fear that a great deal of
grain will be left in the fields ungathered.
Sergeant Hiram Church, of the 9TH Maine
Regiment, has enlisted in this community thir-
ty men for this Regiment They are all first
class men who will fearlessly discharge the
duties of the soldier. They have orders to
move tomorrow morning. God bless them.
The fervent prayers of loyal hearts will follow
them.
The election of the Republican Union ticket
in this county is considered pretty sure, yet
the vote shows a state of things decidedly mix
ed. We forbear comment. What sort of an
affinity could bring one or more Republican
conservatives upon the same ticket with Cor
ham l.. Boynton, must be answered by a long
er political catechism than ever we connect.
The names OF persons elected you will have
obtained through other sources.
Yours, WALLAGRAss.

Testimonial of Respect.

GoRHAM, Sept. II, 1862.
Messrs. Editors The following resolutions
having been passed at a regular meeting of the
"Prentiss Literary Association" connected

with the desire therein expressed we for
ward them TO you, hoping that you will find
room for this testimonial of respect for our de-
parted friend.
1t having pleased God in his providence, TO
remove from us by death our associate MEM
ber, ALBEIT +. WARREN,
Resotred, That while bowling submissiyely
to the will of God, we mourn the loss of our
friend as the loss of one who was ever truly
lovely in character and life, who ever did with
his might what good thing his hand found to
do, who ever spoke and acted without fear and
without reproach.
Resotred, That as an association we the
more mourn his death, inasnuch as we owe
our existence 10 his wisdom in planning, and
his energy in carrying out, what he himself
had originated.
Resoired, That we tender to the famlv and
friends of our departed associate, ass ances
of our most respectful and sincere sympathy
with them in this hour of their trial, and trust
that the realization of the truth that He doeth
all things WELL may come home to them now.
Resoired, That in token of our sorrow for
the loss of our friend, we wear the usual badge
of mourning for fifteen days.
Resoioed, That copy of these resolutions,
signed by our President and Secretary, be
forwarded to the family of the deceased, and
to the press for publication.
Resotred, That out of respect for the
memory of the deceased, we do now adjourn.

men, permit me TO inquire, through your valu-
able sheet, of any one, who can give any in
formation where the money is that was allot-
ted by the 18th Maine Regiment. They were
paid off several months since, and the families
Of those far off soldiers have been anxiousy
waiting until they are getting impatient; and
many of the families are actually in need, and
would have suffered, had it not been for

inquiry, will be thankfully received.

Died in Hospital at West Philadelphia, Sept Sd,
Corporal Charles d. Merrill, of Falmouth, aged %
years and 10 months.
Among the first who responded to the call
of the government tor IS, 600 men, was the sub
ject of this little sketch. But how inadequate
are mere words to do justice to the memory of
one who, putting aside every consideration of
personal ease and interest, bravely resolved to
tender his services to his country, in a cause
that he felt to be just
Writing to friend on the I'd of April, he
says: Il am in good health and spirit;, and
am looking forward to a speedy termination
of the war; for think the rebels have gained
their last victory. Still, there is some hard
fighting to be done, and a great many noble
lives to be sacrificed before they will give up;
but for one, am ready and willing to do my
part
For him to resolve, was to do. No hardships
incident to the life of sodier-no deprivation
of the surroundings that make home-life so
pleasant could turn him from the path of duty.
But from the week Of the seven days battles
through which he passed unharmed-his
strength began to fail. A brother saw his dan
ger and urged him to return home.
The reply was characteristic.
81 came here to help crush the rebellion, aud
want to stay till it is DONE"
But the time had come when the willing
heart and ready hand, could work no more;
and the weary form-a living sacrifice to ho-
ly cause-was laid upon a couch from whence
the spirit passed to its eternal rest
Farewell, brave soldier

The First Congressional District.

The brief article in yesterdays paper, in re-
lation to the returns for the 1st Congressional
District, were slightly incorrect. The exact
plurality for Mr.. Sweat over Mr.. Goodwin, is
151, instead of los as we yesterday reported.
The error resulted from confounding the Gov
ernor vote with that for Congressman, in one
town in York. In relation to the return from
the town of Newfeld, we learn that while the
town records show that the vote was given for
Lorenzo ID. NJ. Sweat, and while the Clerk--a
republican ofiicer-is very certain that he so
wrote the name, the certificate in the Secreta-
tary's Office, as stated yesterday, shows that
Leonard ID. M. Sweat was voted for; but the
certificate further shows, TO the satisfaction of
the Secretary Of State and his Clerks, as well
as to others who have seen it, that the word
Lorenzo was first written, and afterwards was
imperfectly obliterated-by scraping-and the
word Leonard inserted. 1t is TO be hoped
that the return made to the Governor. and the
one from which the count is TO be made, may
be found correct and to correspond with the
town vote; for no gentleman can wish TO be
accredited by the Executive credentials who
is not justly entitled to the honor. Much as
We may regret the result of the voting, on no
consideration would we see the expression of
the people defeated by dshonorable means.

I'd MAINE BATrERY.-A letter from Capt
Hall of Damariscotta, commanding the I'd

cent battle at Bull Run, on account of cbills
and fever. He is recovering from his illness,
and hopes soon to take the field again.
WHERE THE GOLD Is.-The Calais Adver-
tiser, referring to the reported discovery of
gold in that vicinity says: "We understand the
above discovery OF gold bearing quartz was
made in Baileyville near Sprague's Falls, about
ten miles from this city. That there is gold
there, we have had ocular demonstration, but
whether it will pay for getting it out, is the
problem to be solved. We shall see"
POLICEMEN TO BE ABLE-BoDIED.-Sever-
al policemen of Boston having obtained certi-
ficates to exempt them from the draft, the

NEWSPAPER CHANGE.-The Manchester
On. HI Weekly Union has again passed into

editor and proprietor, his partner, Col. Harri-
man, having gone to the war as commander

ing the rebellion, has been strong advocate
of loyal sentiment and action.

1t with much more truth might have said, il
those democrats who have gone to the war had

DIABoLIcAL MURDER IN STRoNG.-A cor
respondent of the Lewiston Journal states
that a most inhuman murder was committed
In the town of Strong, on Sunday last. The
victim was a little girl about ten years old.
daughter of Mr.. Isaac Libbey. She started
for church and Sabbath School Sunday morn
ing, having about one mile to travel. passing
through piece of woods at one point At
A o'clock p. III. she had not returned, when her
folks became alarmed and on inquiry found
that she had not been at the church at ALL
Search was made for her until late in the
night, but no traces found Yesterday the
people turned out in large numbers. and
searched in every direction, and at about two
o'clock 2. NJ. her body was found buried near
an old barn, in an opening surrounded by
woods, some half mile from her fathers house.
A rape had been committed upon her, aud
then her throat cut from ear to ear! / learn
that suspicion rests upon a person in that
neighborhood But the general impression,
however, seems to be that it was the fiendsh
work OF a struggling deserter from the army,
or some vagabond prowling about in this vi
cinity. A person dressed in womau's clothes
but supposed to be man, has been seen in
this vicinity several times during the past week.
Many are of the opinion that he is the mur-
derer.
