lE- A morning daily of this city, which
claims to be conservative" denounces 1t as
"a sorrowiul indication of the loss of individ-
ual independence, and the triumph of party
subserviency," for men TO pledge themselves
to an ''unwavering support of the Federal
Government in whatever e:.orts it may use for
the suppression of the rebellion" We don't
see it in that light; and are unable to under
stand what sacrifice of manhood or of true in
dependence, a man makes by pledging himself
to unconditional support of his government, or
what manliness or independence he can ex-
hibit by reserving the right to disgrace him
self by being traitor. 1t was once thought
by some people to be sacrifice Of independ-
ence for man to pledge himself to sobriety,
but the better sense of community now recog-
nizes no lack OF manhood in the surrender of
ones right to get drunk and make a beast of
himself

ALLEGED LARCEyY.-Last evening officers
Irish and Wentworth arrested S. G. Hutchings
and James Curtis, under the following crcum-
stances. A vessel which arrived at this port
on Monday had small quantity of molasses
belonging to one of the crew. He employed
Hutchings and Curtis to convey barrel of it
up town. While on the way up, Hutchings
driving the cart and Curtis and the seaman
following, Curtis invegled the sailor into a
shop under pretence of getting drink, and
then cleared out by the back door. The sailor
waited some time, and finding out the game
that had been played upon him went into the
streets, but could find nothing of the men or
the molasses. He Immediately lodged COM
plant at the Police Office, aud last evening the
men were arrested. They allege that they
purchased the molasses of the sailor. They
are locked up for examination.

Death of a Veteran Clergyman.

Elder JOHN BUZZELI., veteran clergyman
OF the Free Will Baptist Denomination, and
one of the founders of that Sect at least in
t his part of the country, died in Parsonsfieid,
on Sunday last, March 20, at the ripe age of
95 years, months and IA days. His funeral is
to take place to-day, Wednesday, April l. FL
der B. was one of the original founders of the
Morning Siar-and for years one of its editors
the organ of his denomination, which was
first started in Limerick, and was afterwards
removed to Dover, n. H., where it is now
published. He was man of great natural
abilities, and in his day and generation did not
fail to exert wide influence upon the desti-
mics OF the form of religious faith to which he
was attached. We have an impression -
though we would speak reservedly upon this
point-that Mr.. b. did not readily fall in with
the progressive tendencies Of his sect, that he
did not favor its educational movements, and
was never an advocate of theological schools,
or a classically educated ministry. He was
emphaiically Of the old school, and had great
faith in immediate personal inspiration from
the Almighty TO prompt his utterance as
preacher of the gospel.

s- Who ever knew Portland in so hope
full a condition for Union as at present? Last
year Capt Mcclellan was the candidate of all
those who opposed the Republican nomina-
ton. Immemorial custom sanctions the re-
nomination of a worthy man. OF course our
Democratic and Constitutional Union friends
will noi ignore so wise CUSTOM but will do
themselves the honor to give their old candi-
date a second nomination. The Republicans
and other Union men, determined to be be-
hind no one in liberality, and fully satisfied of
Capt. McLellan's loyalty, fidelity and capaci-
ty-that he has Mr.. Jefierson's three great
requisites-is capable, faithful and Honest-
have shown magnanimous spirit in offering
to meet their Democratic friends by coming
up to the support of their former candidate.
Now if the Democrats meet the question in a
manly spirit, aud show by their action that last
year they were honest in support and praise
of their candidate, he will be elected by such
majority as no mayor has ever yet had.

An Appropriate Device.

Some of the copperhead fraternity have cut
out the head on the new nickel cents-sup-
posing them to be made of copper-and had
them mounted to be worn for breast pins, as a
badge of their copperheaded politics. Their
mistake in relation to the metal is equalled in
absurdity only by their mistake as to the mean
ing of the word "copperhead,' as applied to
the rebel-sympathizers. The word refers to
the copperhead snake-a venomous reptile
and not to a coin. Still, Notwithstanding the
mistake, there is fitness in the device refer
red to. The head on the new nickel cent is
that of an Indian princess with her cap of
feathers, with the word Liberty" stamped
across it. 1t is an emblem of liberty,
it is true, but it is the liberty of the wild
Indian-the liberty of barbdrism! 1t is
not an inappropriate emblem of the liberty
demanded by copperhead politicians; the lib
erty to perpetrate the barbarism of slavery !;
the liberty to own and fog negroes!

The Ward Caucuses Tonight.

This evening as will be seen by an official
notice in this paper, caueuses are to be held
at the different Ward rooms, to nominate can
ddates for Aldermen, Common Councilmen,
&c, to be supported by the Republicans and
other Union men of the city, on Monday next.
These primary meetings should be fally at
tended If the people are there in force, and
see that everything is done fairly and as it
should be, then their work at the polls will
meet with cordial and emphatic endorsement.
More than this: the very best men to be
found in the city should be selected to fill the
offices. We do not mean the rich men, or the
learned men, or the talking men, but we mean
the honest men of good common sense. That
such will be selected we entertain no doubt.
Let the only ambition be to find out and to
elect the ones who will reflect the most honor
upon the city, and who will do most TO encour-
q &c the hearts of the loyal soldiers who are
fighting for their country's safety.

A HANDSOME CoMPLIMENT-Dr. A. C..
HAMLIN, of this State, Medical Inspector, now
stationed on the Potomac, recently received
by Adams Express, a handsome gold watch

medical staff of the Eleventh Army Corps.
DIR. Hamlin served last year as Medical Direc-

to him from his professional brethren in the
field some months after his taking leave of
them, is doubtless very welcome 10 the recip

wIsrAR,s BALsAM OF WILD CHERRY.

wISTAR'S BALSAM OF WILD CHERRY
Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, asthma, Group, Whoop-
ing Cough, Qainsy and the numerous as well as
dangerous diseases of the Throat Chest and Lungs,
prevail in changesble climate, at all seasons of
the year; few fortunate enough to escape their
baneful influence. How important then to have at
hand certain antidote to all these complaints. Ex-
perience proves that this exists in Wistars Bdsdm
to extent not found in any other remedy; howev-
the suffering, the application of this sooth
ing, healing and wonderful Balsam at once van
pushes the disease and restores the sufferer to won't
ed health.
GEORGE w. MILLETT, ESQ,
Editor of the "Norudy Adcertiser,' gives his opin-
ion of this great remedy substantially as follows
NORWAY VILLAGE NE, Aug. 4, 1880.
Messrs. 5. W. FowLE Co, Boston
Gentlemen For a remedy of such undoubted
merit as DIR. WIsTAR's BALsAM or WILD CHERRY,
l cheerfully give you my testimony, and truA that
others may be induced thereby to give IL trial and
be relieved Several years since first became
quanted with this Balsam at time of distressing
cough and cold which took such firm hold of my
lungs to render unit for business, and its OPP
Grafton produced speedy and permanent cure, after
trying various remedies to avail.
In cur town this remedy is a great favorite with
many and if all who suffer will give il fair trial,
think they will find il to be of more service in pull
monary affections, than any other remedy of this
class before the public.
