A Question Of Economy with Towns.


Towns that are voting $500 to each of their
drafted men who go into the service or furnish
substitutes, may make large saving by en-
couraging their returned soldiers to enlist in
the Veteran Regiments. A bounty Of 800 TO
such men will save $500 for every one who en-
lists, for each enlisted veteran counts one In
the towns quota.
The General Government allows bounty
of $402 to veteran volunteers, and the State
t1O0 To drafted man the General Govern
ment pays $102 bounty, and the State 500
When the $500 voted by towns is added to the
sums allowed to drafted men by the National
and State Governments, it makes the precise
amount allowed to veteran, so there is no
special encouragement for man to enlist in
the Veteran Regiments, and hundreds who
are eligible to those regiments are becoming
the substitutes of drafted men. Now If towns
will vote-as Portland and few other places
have done-$100 bounty to volunteers for Vet
eran regiments, it places before every eligible
man substantial inducement of 500 to de-
eide him in favor of such an enlistment. The
towns make up their quotas just as eifectually
by such enlistments, aud for every man in
fuenced TINS to enlist, a man is saved from
the draft and a saving Of 5000 is made which
would otherwise have to be paid to drafted
man. .ss.
This is question of economy which towns

Gen. Busteed's Address

The City Hall has never been graced with
larger or more intelligent audience, of ladies
and gentlemen, than came out to listen to the
distinguished Irish orator, Gen. Richard Bus
teed. However high the expectation had been
raised by previous announcement and news
paper statements, the highest was more than
realized by his effort last evening The meet
ing was presided over by j. 4. McCobb, Esq,
and upon the platform were Hon. Hannibal
Hamlin, Hon. Israel Washburn, Jr., Hon. Viii
liam Pitt Fessenden, E. B. Turner, Esq, Of
Texas, and other distinguished gentlemen.
Gen. Busted commenced in pleasant and
humorous manner, by giving brief history of
his former course, and what the newspapers
had said of him. And in correcting thestate-
ments that had been made In the papers in the
city, said he was born in Ireland, for which he
was not responsible-that he was loyal
Democrat and gloried in it-that he had an
appointment as Brigadier General, and served
the country OF his adoption some nine months,
with as good brigade as ever went on to the
battlefield. He then explained what democ-
racy was and what it was not. Proved con-
clusively beyond the shadow of a shade of
doubt that the so called Democrat Convention
held In this city a few weeks ago, judging
from its own declarations aud resolutions, did
not resemble in any particular the democracy
of jefferson, jackson and Washington, but
that of JEFF. Davis, Vallandigham and Fernan-
do Wood. He spoke OF Bion Bradbury as a
al nj lint
having been found in bad company his fate at
the coming election would be that of poor
Tray. He spoke of Judge Cony's ancestry
his own personal record and the position he
occupied as loyal Democrat, pledged to the
support of the President in every effort he put
forth to put down the rebellion, and that he
would be triumphantly elected Governor of
the State on the 14th day Of the present month.
He read letter from Garibaldi to President
Lincoln, and asked if he was a Democrat?
The response was-yes, yes. He reviewed
the course of Vallandigham' Seymour, Wood,
Bradbury, and asked if they were Democrats,
and there was a universal shout >of no, no.
Gen. Busteed has very clear, full voice
speaks very distinc. and moderate-has an
easy, ready flow of language, aud has the very
word he wants upon his tongues end. At
times his eloqueuce would arise TO sublmity
and carry everything before it. His appeal to
the ladies was in elegant language and telling
eloquence. He was repeatedly and enthusi-
asticaly applauded, and that vast audience
listened with the most intense interest to his
address from the first to the last. M

LEcTURE.-Rev. ID. WATSON gave lecture
last Sabbath evening at Mechanics Hall before
very respectable and appreciative audience.
His subject was, "The Saving of the Soul,'
and most ingeniously and learnedly did he
handle it. His style of speaking was CONVEX
sational and not declamatory, and all the more
acceptable on that account. The doctrine he
taught commended itself to the common sense
and moral susceptibilties Of his auditors. 1t
was especially valuable to the young of both
sexes, and those of more advanced years were
profited by II. The lecturer showed most
clearly the importance Of the early training of
the mind, and the danger Of practicing decep-
ton OF any kind, especially when young, lest
it become an inveterate habit and corrupt the
soul. He instanced several cases, and showed
the dangerous practice of arguing upon the
wrong side Of questions merely for the sake
OF argument. He alluded among others, to
Caleb Gushing, ripe and good scholar aud
man OF extraordinary Intellectual powers, who,
while in college, always argued the side Of
questions which his conscience then con-
demned. This habit one of his classmates
condemned, and told him 1t would blunt his
moral sense and make him mere intellectual
being; but Gushing said he could take care
OF his soul; but whether he had or not, the
lecturer left it to the public to judge. He said
there was reason in everything, saving and
excepting pro-savery democracy-there was
no reason in that and his auditors thought SO
to. Such lectures are really up to the spirit of
the times, and are well calculated to instruct
as well as to amuse. 1t is well to have one
think for us and give us his thoughts, espe-
cially when the thinking is so deep and the
thoughts are so pure. This society has re-
Gently been giving us lecturers of high or
der of mental and moral power, aud those
who have heard them will surely thank this
association for spreading before them such in
tellectual banquets.
