Letter from Brunswick.

DoWDOiN OoLLEGE, rtu 10, 1000.
To the Editors Of the Press:
Lieut.. Prof. Chamberlain, minus the whis-
kers, Capt Thompson, of the LIST Battery Of
Artillery, and Lieut. Adelbert Twitchell, plus
the whiskers are In town.
Col. Chamberlain is at home on very short
Tuesday tomorrow lie has enjoyed good
health since he left Maine last September,
though constantly ON duty, and, since the bat
tie at Antietam, in charge Of the regiment.
The proficiency of the 10th regiment, which is
already famous, is due in great measure to
his energy and ability. He speaks in the
highest terms of
COL. AMEs,
whom Gen. Hooker considers one of the most
promising young officers in the army. Since
the battle at Antietaln he has been detached
from the regiment, except for a very short
time, to fill higher and more responsible posi-
tions. His promotion to brigadiership would
be not only eminently ct, but is highly proba-
BILE.
LIEUT.. NICHOLS.
Some newspapers, among which, believe
is the Lewiston Journal, have given currency
to the report that Lieut.. J. III. Nichols Of
Brunswick, an officer in the 10th Regiment, is
the same who was court-martiaed and dis
graced for resigning in face of the enemy and
using improper language in regard to the
emancipation proclamation OF the President.
The man, more than worthy the punishment
received, belonged to the 10Th regiment.
Lieut.. James II. Nichols, of the goth, is an ex-
emplary officer and his immediate promotion
is highly probable. 1t is hoped that no one
would willingly injure the character of
worthy man, and that the reports to his harm
may be corrected.
THE PRESS.
Within the past few weeks have had occa-
sion to learn something Of the popularity of
the Press in some of the neighboring towns
In Brunswick, besides the many copies of the
Press sold by the newsboy daily, roll is re-
ceived at the post Office, similar in size to the
Advertiser bundle in the days of its rectitude
and prosperity
In Falmouth and Cumberland, i am inform
ed, the Press has entirely superseded the Ad-
vertiser. In many other towns in the vicinity
the Press is invariably taken by those Repub-
licans, who once patronized the Advertiser,
aud the latter is known only by reputation.
THE ADVERTISER.
Ispeak of the Advertiser in particular, be-
cause 1t formerly advocated the principles sus-
tanned by the Press now, and was once read by
people entertaining similar views. People
who had read the Portland Advertiser for half
century,-tll it was considered almost one of
the famiy,-people, who would defen nd it as a
brother against the attacks Of its enemies,
hesitated long while to substitute for it pa
per wrongly considered an .interloper but

The following are extracts on principal points in

New York election: .-ss ..-;- &sG.;. q! <.s5s,
.-... THE ISSUE OF THE wAR.
have another ground for knowing that you will
succeed to morrow. You have the right side upon
plain, practical, simple issue. Our opponents do
not see this they have suffered faction to blind
them. They say that they are voting down this
administration, because it is incompetent and ought
never to have been elected They say, again, that
they are voting TO decide the Presidential election
of1s64 They are doing no such thing Abraham
Lincoln Was elected in 1860 to be President of the
United States for four years. viz: from the 4th of
March, 1861, to the 4th Of March, 1866 fairly, just
ly, honorably, constitutionally elected The ques.
ton is not whether he ought to have been elected
in 1860; that settled in the election of 1860,
and sirreversble The question is whether not be or
any person connected with this administration shall
be elected in 1864 That will be settled in the cleo
ton Of 1864. Abraham Lincoln was elected 1850
to be President, not Of part but of tho whole
United States; but he has been forciby kept out Of
part of the United States-Louisiana, Virginia,
North Carolina, South Carolina Georgia and other
Gulf States. In those States he is President de
jurs bu. not de acte The object Of election is the
object of the war. It is to make Abraham Lincoln
President de tacto from 1860 to 1864 in Georgia,
Carolina and other Gulf States as he is Presi
dent de .taeto in Massachusetts,, New York and
Ohio. ~ ~ EEs5s Z .14za4;. Is
NO PEACE UNTIL ABRAHAM LINCOLN IS PRESIDENT OF
THE WHOLE UNITED STATES.
: know the war waged for that object will sue
coed, and know elections held for the same object
will succeed They will succeed because the object
is just and Justice IN politics is necessary. 1t is
injustice and downright robbery of Abraham Lin
coin, and the majority Of the citizens who elected
him. to refuse him the enjoyment Of the authority
conferred upon him in that election. There can b
no psaee and quiet until abraham Linceln 10 sPres-
idsnt under that election, Of the piols United
States Now, Justice is instinct of the whole hu
man family. If a man has a house, q horse, or
boat, and tits taken from him. all society combines
to restore it to bis possession and it awards severe
punishment to those who attempt to rob him Of his
rights. -
The result to be attained is Is important to our
opponents ssit ia to us. What if through battle
and suffrage the President who was elected in 1860
should, by his opponents be kept out Of the Presi-
dency Of the United States until another election
