mocracy, by representing them as advocates

"is ignorant Of the fact, that such a statement
sis gross misrepresentation-is therefore,
"we are compelled to believe, deliberate one
"and stamps every journal that employs it, as
"a wiliul falsifer.' Now the New York
World distinctly makes this statement and
repudiates the peace policy of the beaten
Connecticut democrats and of the Mozart Hall

call each other bad names in public, if you
can help it.

sg- The shameful indecency of discomft-
ed copperheads was plainly exhibited in Sat
urday's Argus, in which the venerable Judge
Ware, one Of the purest minded of men, and
man Of lifelong democratic antecedents,
was put down in the list of Office holders
who, by plain implication, were charged with
prostituting their power, and using it to the ut
most in the late election.

Peace to their Ashes.

The peace party alias Copperheads are be-
ginning to be repudiated on every hand. The
leaders Of the peace movement avebetrayed
the motive Of their opposition to the Govern
inent TOO soon. The Democratic party, says q
recent number of the New York World, can
not afford to step from its broad platform on
TO piznk, one end of schfch Is under cater
fn Connecticut to-day. The party cannot al
ford It. Suicide Is too exuavagant 10 lie
calmly contemplated.
Il q ore thing, to talk with Lord Lyons I'M
der the rose; II is another thing, TO have such
REASONABLE talk made public through the pag-
es Of British blue book; snditk a third and
still more fatal thing, to go before the people
and openly advocate peace with rebels and re-
sistance to the constitutional Government
These three things the leaders of the opposi-
zion have tried successfully. While they ut
tered treason only in the ears Of British
Minister, the people believed their public pro-
veststions OF opposition only to the dangerous
delays Of the Administration; believed that
these eminent patriots desired only more en-
ergy in the prosecution Of the war. So they
rolled up their Democratic msjorities, and
then began the talk Of rebuking the unconsti-
tutioual acts of the Administration. The ma
tion pricked up its ears and listened attent-
lively. Here was something new, much noise.
and possibly word or two worth hearing. 1t
was no longer the conduct of the Admins
tration toward rebels, but toward loyal citi-
seas, that was arrsigned. The people contin-
ued to listen most attentively, and by and by
distinguished very clearly amidst the din,
crest deal about "olive branches" and "con-
ventions,n and "treaties," and 'peace on any
terms.' Ohol'quoth the People, If that's the
game, I'm of. just then came over the nice
~ printed Diplomatic Correspondence Of the
English. Government, with Lord Lyons useful
letter Of the Eth November, TO confirm the
Justly aroused popular suspicion. From that
moment dates the decline of the Copperhead
party.
Now observe! Since this Government was
constructed, we have seen one party utterly
disappear. Not trace of the Federaiists
could ever be found af,er the war of 1912. OF
the two great parties, which came into exis-
tence after that epoch, neither Wing nor Dem
ocrat would confess Federal origin. Each
claimed lineal descent from the Republican
war party Of 1872. We shall witness repe-
tition Of that phenomenon. Already the
World repudiates the peace party, and last
Fridays Argus published under the caption,
"A Song for the Hour" such verses as these:
O men and brothers, strong and brave,
Silence each fraiforous faction,
BY loyal deed or battle-glaive,
Triumph in noble action.
There has been nothing like this in the Ar
gus before Five years hence there will be
none to claim art or part in the peace move
ments of the last two or three months.

STATE OF MAINE,
Public Hnmflia ton, Fasting
and Prayer.

In obedience to q memorable and revered Gus.
tom, and with the advice and sanction of the Ex-
ecutive Council, do hereby appoint THURSDAY,
TIE fAsrfiefh day Of Aprii instant to be observed
throughout this State as day of PUBLIC HuMIL1A-
TON, FASTING AND PRAYER.
The day thus designated is peculiarly impressive
and significant, because the whole Nation has been
summoned TO unite in its observance by solemn Proc
lamation from the President of the United States.
Abstaining from our ordinary pursuits and ayoca-
tons, may we come together in our temples Of wor-
Lei us supplicate God that HE will deliver us from
our egressions and make not the reproach of
the foolish" Let us beseech Him, "that He will re.
move His stroke from lest we be consumed by the
blow Of His hand" Let us implore Him, that we
may be of those whose God is the Lord" and that
trusting in the Redeemers name, mercy shall COM
pass us about and righteousness exat us"
May we, in craving forgiveness of our personal
transgressions, devoutly pray that Gods merciful
kindness shall be extended to . Nation: that
the dark cloud of Civil War, still resting upon
with all its calamites may be removed and that the
light Of Peace may speedily break in upon with
the triumph of Justice, Liberty and Truth. And in
all our suherings, let us trust with mistaken faith
that God will give us grace and strength to bear them
with patriotic fortitude; and that in His mercy, He
will unite the hearts and hands of all good men in
every needful effort for country's veal.
As our forefathers in their seasons of momentous
trial, never failed TO appeal with Faith and Hope to
let us in the day of calamity turn with like confidence
to the same great Power Of wisdom and strength
Man Is weak, but God is mighty; without His aid we
wage wars in vain; but If He be with us, those
against us will be confounded and our nation will
come forth victorious its enemies and purified
because of its trials.

In this second article the Member from
Westbrool," whose paternal care and interest
In our city affairs is known to all, publishes
the official papers relating to his famous
aAqueduct Scheme Of 1885," which IL we had
the space, we would give our readers; for we
think they show concusively that the City
Council Of that year did right in rejecting
such moonshine project as the supplying
Of this city with water by a few individuals,
organized under what is known as our "Vil-
lage Aqueduct law"
Among the means used by this Company to
"demolish the opposition" as the Advertiser
terms Il, and to counteract the letter Of the
then City Solicitor, Edward Fox, ESQ.,, in
which he gave his legal opinion that this Com
pany was not authorized TO construct an aque-
duct upon the lands taken for the Cumberland
4 Oxford Canal; among the means used, we
say, Is Characteristic letter to the Mayor
from the pen OF Hon. Francis o. J. Smith, in
which Mr.. s., among other ridiculous promi-
ses and pledges, says, THAT the Water Com
pany undertake to guarantee the right Of
scay, and the introduction of water to the
proposed site for the reservoirs"

had no legal power to take.water from Lake

impossibilities, and to exercise, lawlessly, what
no Legislature would grant, TO wit: the right
to few individuals to convert canal into an

Rebel Force Sent from virginia to Operate
against Gen. Foster.-Reported Burning
of Washington.
New YORK, April IL.
The Herald prints the following relative to
Gen. Foster: 1t is stated that the rebel forces
on the other side OF the Blackwater were un-
der marching orders on the 9Th, with two days
cooked rations and four days rations besides
unprepared.
force of Union cavalry and artillery under
Gen. Dodge, are out for the purpose OF cap
turing the detached rebel force in that vicinity.
When last heard from, which was at noon on
Thursday, they had met the enemy, had skir-
mished with them and had taken some pris-
eners.
The reports from North Carolia via Eden
ton state that Washington, N. c., had been
burned, but by whom was not stated. The
vessels sent from Newbern with reinforcements
for Washington has not been able to reach that
city.
From the Richmond Dispatch of April 9th
we have news from Washington, N. c., as late
as Sunday. 1t ays:-"Our troops have cap
tured the enemy's batteries at Hills Point,
situated on the banks of the Tar river, seven
miles below the town, which position gives us
an open field and fair fight with the Yankee
shipping. Two gunboats, followed by several
large transports loaded with troops for New
bern, to reinforce Washington, attempted to
run the blockade at Hills Point, on Friday,
when they were fired upon by our batteries,
and so badly damaged as to be forced to put
back. They could not pass our guns, and at
last accounts the enemy were landing troops
below our works At Hills Point. In the at
tempt to go by, the steamer Louisiana was
sunk by our guns. There are about 1000 ne
groes in Washington, whom the enemy tried
to get out but failed. The enemy have refus-
ed to surrender or allow the women and chill
dren to leave that place-so Gen. Hill, it is
presumed, will shell the town.
The Portland daily press., 1863-04-13

WThe Advertiser, by comparing the popu-
lar vote Of Connecticut with that of last year,
attempts to prove that the Republicans have
suffered loss. 1t does not state, as fairness
would dictate, that last year there were no
members of Congress chosen, that no national
issues were involved, and that 10000 soldiers
have since then gone to the seat Of war, full
three-fourths OF whom were the sworn enemies
of copperheadism in all its forms. When the
recent vote is compared with that Of 1861, at
which time parallel election took place, the
anti-copperhead majority is increased more
than 600, to say nothing of at least 5000 ma
jority in the regiments from that State.

been doing large business in the liquor sciz-

different persons were placed in his hands, and,
says the Journal. liquor was found on the
premises Of all except one, and in that case
the owner confessed that he had got wind of
the movement, and had made way with his IL

gallons were seized. The search seems to
have been made without respect to persons,
