place our reliance upon European manniaeto-
ries: but that reliance is at an end. All our
arms and munitions are manufactured at
home, and we are independent of foreign
countries, not only for the manufactures, but
also for the materials OF Which they are cotn-
posed" II seems almost tinleiful to speak Of
war Ia connection with handicralt and the
arts OF peace, but all the while we have been
fighting this war we have lot forgotten that
our mission is to inquire and study. We have
inquired and studied; and we learn from the
Secretary that our efforts in supplying and de-
yeoping great army have resulted in discov-
cries of great Importance, and that among
the arts thus improved is the manufacture of
wrought IRON" While we have been conquer
ing the South in the way of war, we have
been conquering Sweden, Norway and Eng
land in the way of peace.
In perusing this wonderful document il is
impossible not to possess feeling of admira-
tion for the minister at the head of the War
Department. We are not writing words OF
mere praise, for in the case of Mr.. Stanton
there can be no higher praise than the deeds
he modestly records. We say this of him,
that, having been from the beginning de-
uouneed and distrusted by the enemies of the
| government as no other man in the confidence
| of the government had ever been, he has re-
manned true to the great principles involved
| in this struggle. He has been the great enc
my of corruption and jobbery. He has been
the unyielding foe of tardness, and incompe-
tency and disloyalty. His name has been q
| terror TO the scoundrel who came here to steal
| as well as to the coward who came here TO
| avoid battle. He has dared everything in the
| performance of his duty - precedent, public
| opinion, and prejudice. He has been just
| man. His btterest foe has never assailed his
| integrity or his honor. To bis unbending en-
| ergy we must attribute much of the success
/ that has attended the great experiment of
arming the negro. No obloquy, or reproacl,
| or menace, could move him from his purpose,
| and, in the bitterest and darkest hours, when
men seemed TO be almost justified in despair
| ing, this bold statesman kept onward and still
| onward in the execution of his high trust.
| In this season of felcitation and gratitude let
us not forget the man whose will has execut-
! ed the will Of the Administration. and who,
| in organizing war, has organized victory.

So. FREEPoRT Dec. II, 1868.
To the Editor Of the Press
The new barque of 900 tons, the 'Rapidau,'
was launched on Saturday in admirable style,
from the yard of Messrs. G. & c. Bliss at this
point. She is from the hand of Master James
Brown, and is every way worthy of her build
ers. To-day she is in the hands of her riggers
so that she is soon to be flt for the sea il no
accident prevents.
Our streets have been all astir for some time
past with constant tide of teams with hay
and potatoes, with which four schooners have
been rapidly loading and clearing for Wash
ington. Hay brings $40. per ton at the wharf
and potatoes range above so cents the bnshel.
The business activity of this village viii proba-
bly, have recess for the winter, as our last
vessel is launched, and our carpenters will be
tempted 10 other yards by the liberal pay that
invites them. Numbers are already engaged
at Yarmouth, four miles distant, where three
large ships are going up. Some are also en-
gagged for the yards In other States, where the
inducements are greater than in Maine. What

away to Canada for fear OF the draft! And
they meet no cordial greetings there. Decent
Canadians, even that class of them who seem
TO be somewhat ia sympathy with the Southern
cause, cannot but despise the renegades who
forsake home and country from cowardice or
a worse motive. Such men deserve not home
or country. Should they be allowed to come
within the Presidents Proclamation of Am
nesty? Blessed Proclamation. 1t does not
yet embrace these renegades, but it does en-
brace the calm utterances OF a noble heart
may we not say OF the National heart? Null
titudes will respond "God bless Abraham Lin
coin! May we not hope for generous respons-
,esn the home of the rebellion? Il comes in
good time; 1t comes in admirable Gorm-gen-
erous, heartfelt, carefully guarded,--it must
speed It's way TO the heart Of many q misled
victim Of Southern despotismI OF course it
will not relieve the desperation leaders who
are exceptedFrom the proclamation, but may
not some such follow the example Of the out
spoken Gannett of Arkansas? May we not
hope this proclamation will extract the virus
from some Northern sympaihizers with se-
cession? 1t seems fitted TO test them some
what. 1t is hardlypossible but that those who
have Justify cried for peace viii either sympa-
thize with and be soothed by the proclama-
ton, or become more desperate in their attacks
upon the President.
One crowning endorsement of the Message
and Proclamation is now wanting. Ii is such
response to the last call for 100000 more >,
as shall render the draft nullity.
Let there be such rally before the day of
the draft, and the moral force OF 1t would al
most close the contest. Shall not Maine be
true to her motto as the "Dirigo" State? Let
the watchword be "Rally. men, rallytn Fill
up the raaks to second the calm words of par
don. c.p.
