the First Of January,-the first anniversary OF
the issue of the great philanthropc and hui
manitarian proclamation of Emancipation
The meeting was called to order by n. A.
Foster, Esq, on whose motion T. c. HERsEY,
Esq, was called to the chair. A. f. STEVENS,
ESQ.,, was chosen Secretary.
Remarks were made, appropriate to the oc-
easion, by Rev. Mr.. Stebbins, II. Goddard, ].
c. Woodman, c. A. Stackpolc, Geo. w. Wood
man and the Chairman.
On motion, committee consisting Of J. +.
Gilman, Rev. II. Stebbins and n. A. Foster,
WAS appointed, to nominate a committee Of
seven, to be constituted Committee Of Ar
rangements, who subsequently reported the
following gentlemen for the committee, to
wit:
CHARLES A. STAcKPoLE,

Of the observance of the approaching anniver-

make up an appropriate programme, and to
perfect all necessary arrangements, making
the same public as early as practicable. The
Committee was also authorized to fill vacancies
in their board, and to enlarge their numbers

To the Editor Of the Press:
Dear Si-It has been gratifying to notice
the various liberal gifts in our State, within
the past few weeks, to the U. S. Sanitary Com
mission. While other local agencies have
their own peculiar duties and uses, this great
Pioneer Of supply, Is not TO be forgotten. If
one wishes to get cured of any jealousy or
feeling Of rivalry, let him take a nearer view
OF the work In the field and hospitals. My
first experience with the Commission, was on
the great battlefield of Antietam. There
was promotness and system about the work
which no reasonable person could criticise;
and the usefulness of it can but be told by the
thousands who receive the benefit. 1t is very
agreeable at the present date, even, to meet
Surgeons and soldiers, who gratefully alludc
TO those scenes.
The kindly, social influences upon the
character Of the soldiers, cannot be spoken of
in brief note. A good soldier Is not likely
TO have more favors than he needs and de-
serves; and II he gets less, let him not charge
1t to want of heart among the people at home
The Maine Soldiers Relief Association long
since gave their endorsement to the Commits
sion. Yours, very respectfully,
l.. WATSON, Maine State Agent

THE DUNLAP MoyUMEYT.-The Bruns-

ument just erected In the village burying
ground, from which We learn the monument
is OF granite, OF good color and texture, suf-
6ciently dark to contrast well with the mar
BILE bust that surmounts it. The bust is the
work Of Mr.. Simmons, the artist of Portland /;
considering that he never saw Gov. Dunlap,
and that he had TO rely on photographs and
portraits, he has succeeded in obtaining a
wonderfully accurate likeness. There are three
tablets, one by the masons, one by the State
and the other by the family.
The granite work was done by Vincent NJ
Hogan, of Bath, and the cutting is sharp, clear
and clean. and the dressing Is In the best style.
The granite itself was taken from the George
town quarry The marble tablets were fur
nlshed and the lettering done by Mr.. d. N.
Melcher, of Brunswick, who Is entitled to
great credit for the manner In which he exc
gated the work,

FREEDMEN's RELIEF MEETING.-Mr Chap
lain Fisher who Is to address our citizens to-
morrow evening ON the condition of the freed
men on the lower Mississippi, and to make an
appeal In their behalf, is the same gentleman
who, few evenings since, spoke in the Old
South Church, Boston, and presented the
case SO clearly that even Geo. S. Hillard-a
conservative" of the Boston Courier school
was constrained TO endorse the appeal, and
10 make an eloquent address in aid of Mr.
Fishers mission. We mention this fact solely
TO show that it Is no political scheme that Mr.
+. seeks TO further, but a work of philanthropy
which appeals to the heart of every man. 1t
is no fault of the negroes in that region that
they are in distress it is not the proclamation
that has thrown them in our way, SO much as
the progress Of the war and the successes of
our victorious arms. As our troops extended
their outposts, the slave owners fed in thou
sands Of instances, leaving all behind them. OF
course Production ceased, and the ordinary
supply of these people ceased with it. The
able-bodied men among the people thus freed
the helpless classes of the aid they might other
wise derive from them. In the mean time
we contract new obligations; to see that in
their new freedom the poor creatures do not
suffer burdens from which they were meas
urably free in slavery. Now is their transition
state. Philanthropy must do the work now
that viii easily be accomplished without such
aid when the war shall be over aid business
begins TO find Its legitimate channels. The
people who poured out their substance to feed
The starving Irish, will not be deaf to appeals
for the unfortunate of their own land

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10.
Representative Sweat, of Maine, has intro
duced bill providing for an examination of
Casco Bay, to ascertain if it does not contain
site for navy yard of construction superior
to either New London or League Island.
The Tribune's dispatch says: Senator Bay
ard, of Delaware, never having taken the anti
rebellion oath required by the act of the last
session, was informally reminded of that fact
by the Vice-President to-day, and requested
to say whether he was prepared to take it,
He replied in the negative, adding that if the
Senate by formal vote required him to take
1t, he should resign. The question will proba-
bly, be brought up tomorrow.
