Who is the Libeler.

In the Convention that nominated Bion
Bradbury, Gen. SAMUEL J. ANEERsoN said,
in reply to the question of a delegate whether
Bradbury, it elected Governor, would, ''as he
would have right to do" withdraw the Maine
troops from the field:
When Cor. Seymour srithdrdrs the Ner York
troops, then l PLEDGE YOU THAT BI0N
BRADBURY WILL WITHDRAW THE MAINE
TROOPS.
Bion Bradbury says in his letter Of accept
ance to the Committee Of the Convention:
take this occasion to state explicitly that Gov
ernor of Maine should not recall the troops of the
State from the National armies, place the State
in opposition the constitutional and rightful au-
thority of the Federal Government Such an impa-
fdtion Is q LIBEL upon mysef aud the Democratic
Contention rafch you represent.
Who is the libeler in this case if not Samuel
]. Anderson? He alone imputed to Bradbury
purpose to withdraw the troops-to put the
State in opposition to the Federal Govern
ment. Anderson stood before the Convention
the confidential friend of Bradbury, and hold
ing in his hand the confidential letter of his
friend, he made the pledge above recorded.
Did he libel Mr.. Bradbury?

KENNEBUNK, CAMP GROUND,

thursday, Aug. ~.
The day being SO clear, thousands resorted
to this spot, many for worship, but as usual,
many for recreation. Rev. Charles Munger
gave an exposition at 10 l-2 A. NJ. of Romans,
v. 20. 81. In so doing he gave four prominent
points. LIST. 1t was matter of distinct reve-
lation that sin should reign. I'd. That grace
shall reign even more abundantly than sin.
Sd. The transition between the reign of sin
and the reign of grace should be marked BY
unparalleled judgments or conclusions. 18th.
This triumph of grace over sin is nigh
With great clearness the speaker showed
that the triumph of Christianity over sin was
the burden of prophecy, and was definitely
pointed out by Daniel and John. He mem
toned the year 1865 as n date that mil ht very
properly be assumed as the one foretold for
the universal establishment of Christianity and
the downfall of the dominion of the serpent or
dragon. The speaker made some very happy
illusions to the southern rebellion as having
assumed for its symbol the rdtteshake. Chris
tians were exhorted to stand by the Cross be-
till all the kingdoms of this world shall come
under the rule of Christ.
Rev. Mr.. Fuller of the Pine Street Church,
Portland preached in the afternoon from Feel.
xii. Is II to a very large and attentive audi
enc. The discourse was directed to the I'M
converted, and though no public invtationwas
given for seekers to come forward, yet the
tents received them, where more than score
of prayer meetings were Immediately held.

Resolutions on the State of the Country.
adopted at the Meeting Of the Cumberland Baptis
Association, august 26, 1868.

Adopfed at the Meeting Of the Cumberland Baptist
Associations, august 26, 1868. A
l. RESOLVED, That this Association cherishes
now as ever mistaken confidence in the prin-
ciples of sound popular government, an unset
fish love Of country, and determination to
defend the Union against dissolution plotted
by traitors in this country, and assaults made
~by enemies in other countries; that it boldly
expresses sympathy with such a prosecution
of the war as shall speedily secure the surren-
der Of all rebels TO the sovereignty of law: and
recognizing American Slavery as opposed to
the true interests of the nation, unjust TO the
race in bondage, and in violation of the pre-
cepts of our holy religion, therefore, this.Asso-
citation believe it to be christian duty to prag
and act for its destruction, and TO endure any
further sacrifice of treasure and of life rather
than submit TO peace that shall enforce the
claims OF slavery again to the protection of the
National Government.
2. Resoired, That the deepest sympathies Of
this Association are with the families and
friends of the brave officers and privates who
have gloriously fallen upon the battlefield du-
ring the progress Of the present war in defence
of their imperilled country and its Tree institu-
tions and we hereby tender to them all. the
assurance that the noble deeds of the fallen nre
not and shall not be forgotten; that we shall
ever tenderly cherish their memories, and be
proud OF their acts, while we deeply and sim
cerely condole with those who mourn for the
loved and lost E IT
g. Resoloed, That our soldiers in the army
and our sailors in the navy who so boldly re-
sponded to their country's call in the hour of
her peril are entitled to our thanks: living
they should know nations gratitude; woun-
ded a nations care, and dying they should
ever live in the memory of all true patriots,
aud their widows and children become the OBJ
iects of the nations guardianship and watch
fulness.

Gen. Logan ON Traitors.

The following is Gen. Logan's mode of dis
eliminating between loyal men and traitors,
and it is not only just but truthful. it's from
a speech recently delivered in Chicago:
People may talk about Democrats, Republic
cans, and Abolitonists, as they will-say what
they will-there are but two parties-patrots
and traitors-in this country at the present
time-those who oppose the war and the best
interests of the country, and those who sup
port the country. There are but two classes
of men. They are for the Government or
against it--tor jeff. Davis or against him.
Those who find fault with everything we do,
and have no word of condemnation for the
rebels, are for them; those who do not find
fault, but detest JEFF. Davis and his traitors
heartily. are for us--on our side. The best
way to detect traitors is to take as such all
who are continually finding fault. The next
best are those who say the least against us.

Mosby's Operations IN Virgins


NEW YORK, Aug. %.
A Washington dispatch in the Herald states
that it is generally believed that Mosby was
fatally wounded on Monday. 1t says: "On
Monday Mosby led force toward Annandale
while portion of Whites command secured
the neighborhood OF Falls Church and Bailey's
Cross Roads. Upon that day large drove Of
cattle and horses had been sent out to the
front from Alexandria, and the horses falling
behind the cattle and having small escort
were attacked near Annandale by Mosby. who
succeeded in capturing number of animals
and escaping without loss.
A short time after, the Sth Pennsylvania
cavalry came up, overlook the guerrillas, and
after sharp fight, recaptured most of the
horses. The guerrillas scattered and fled as
far as Mills Cross Roads, where they collect
ed. and sent back small wagon for wound
ed officer, who had been left GEAR the scene of
the engagement. Securing the wounded man
the rebels passed up the Leesburg pike thro
Dransville. to which point they were pursued
by our cavalry without success.
All of the inhabitants along the route taken
by the guerrillas state that the wounded man
was Mosby and that his injuries are regarded
by his men as being of a very dangerous char
acter, the ball entering his back below The
shoulder blade. The wound bled profi,saIv
and in many places on the route the yehci,,
could be traced by the drops of blood in the
road. As the party were careful to carry the
wounded man TO Leesburg before he could re-
ceive medical attention, it is very probable
that death has now ensued.

NEW YopK Aug

New YORK, Aug. 81.
A Leavenworth dispatch to the Herald saws.
Gen. Lane has returned to Lawrence. A
meeting was held on his return, and Major
Clark and Major Plumb were denounced. The
people OF Baldwin disputed QuantrelI in pass

duty they could have whipped the rebels.

will go into Missouri on the 9th of September
He lett Gen. Ewing only upon pledge that
Ewing would issue an order directing all the
citizens of Jackson, Cass, Bates and part OF
vernon counties, except those in Kansas City,
west of Harrisonvie and Independence, to
leave the country within fifteen days.
Ewing has issued the order, and the people
OF Kansas are going into Missouri to see that
the order is executed. The people have de-
manded the order issued by the General COM
