To the RditorQf the Press
As it has been unpleasant weather till yes
terday during my visit at this region, have
been unable to get around much. But Proyi-
dence has at last favored your unfortunate
friend, andhe will now try TO make himself
useful as well as ornamental. Thus far
wherever have been, in the surrounding re-
gion, good word has been spoken for your
paper, and what intend to do in the future
will be for the lspeflt of the Press. There is
better feeling in regard to the paper now
than there was in the same circles only one
short year ago. | don't know as loayes and
fishes have anything to do with it, but am
rather inclined to think that the bold stand it
has taken and maintained has turned many
from darkness TO light"
Bath has always been noted for its ship
building, and this season has not been an ex-
ception. large number of fine crafts are
now on the stocks, and many of them are al
most ready to launch. A splendid schooner
named Adriana, Of $50 tons, was launched
last Wednesday from the yard OF Mr.. D. O.
Blaisdell. She is to be commanded by Capt
Samuel Williams. Yesterday large crowd
of people were seen vending their way to
the ship-yard of Messrs. Lemont d. Robinson
to witness the launch of the superior ship
" Aberdeen" 1t was most successful launch
She is nearly 800 tons burden and is to be
commanded by Capt. Anderson. Business Is
brisk and there is every prospect for its con
tinuing SO for some time. The Ravell Troupe
has just concluded a successful engagement
in this city. They are to visit Portland
again very soon. G.

The Character of our Veteran Soldiers.

We are permitted TO make the following
extract from a letter of Col. II. NJ. Plaisted,
of the Maine Eleventh, dated at Morris Is
land S. c., March 10th, to Mayor Mcclellan
Of this city. 1t presents view OF the infu-
ence OF army life upon the soldiers which is
most gratifying to contemplate; especially
when we reflect that sooner or later - soon
weshope-these soldiers, relieved from the
duties Of military life, viii return home to
dwell among us, and with us to take part in
controlling the political affairs and in shaping
the destiny of country whose honor and in
tegrity they have done so much to defend:
"You are right when you say there is hon.
esty and honor in the army. Nor is it confined
10 the officers. We often hear of recruits
stealing from one another on their way to the
army and after their arrival, but not SO Of
our veterans You will not hear of their
robbing each other on their way home though
their pockets may be full of money. The SER
vice makes them better men and better citi-
zens, unless their officers are greatly wanting.
There is good reason for it, in the wholesome
ness OF military discipline, and in the absence
of temptations. Besides, the life of soldiers is
the constant exercise of the highest virtues I;
love Of order and neatness, fidelity to their
cOlorS ana commanders, temperance, Con-
stancy, Patience, Courage and Patriotism. All
that old song about the demoralizing effects of
war do not believe in. 1t is my, firm belief
that have not man in my regiment who is
not better man to-day-and will not make
better citizen-than he was when he enlisted
in the army. This / believe to be true of
regiments generally. Icould give you many
most interesting examples of individual cases
in proof of what ! say.
You need never fear, however long the war
may last, that our body polite will be cor
rupted by the return of old soldiers. They
will carry with. them to their homes the same
love of order and industry, the same generos-
ity and patriotism they have exercised in the
service. Allow me to say these things for
your encouragement. l have often thought
you at home needed more encouragement
than the soldiers. We are schooled to patience
by the necessities of war and by our military
training.
If the war must last, let ii. There is only
one lcdy out of it for us, and that is through
it, to one complete and final triumph; if we
would not be Infamous in history. If you
give us a chance to vote, as trust you will,
you will see no backing down in the returns
from the army"

Death of Owen LOvejoy.

The telegraph has already conveyed to III
the saddening intelligence that Hon. Over
Lovejoy, member of Congress from the Fitl
Illinois district, died in Brooklyn at half pas
IL o'clock on Friday night. The following
biographical notice we find in the N. Y. Eve
Mug Post:
Mr.. Lovejoy had been complaining since
last January, but came to this city from
Washington on the 18th, and the following
day was out of doors since then he has been
confined to his bed with an affection of the
liver and kidneys. He was attended in his
last illness by his wife and daughter, and by
many sympathizing friends. Mr.. Loyejoy
was a self-made man. Born in Kennebec
county, Maine, in 1911, he passed his boyhood
working on farm, and paid his way through
Bowdoin College by teaching school. Study
ing theology, he received a call to the pas
torate of the Congregational Church at
Princeton, Illinois, and officiated there for
sixteen years, until, in 1856, he was elected
TO represent his district in Congress, where
he was prominent as bold and fearless advo-
cate of freedom for all. Ia 1947 his brother.
Rev. f. p. Lovejoy, an anti-slavery editor,
was murdered at Alton, Illinois, by pro-
slavery mob; and since then Owen Loveioy
had, naturally enough, manifested deeper
intensity ia his hatred OF slave institutions !;
aud to those of the opposite party his bold,
unsparing denunciations had rendered him
peculiarly obnoxious.
Among the incidents of his political career,
1t will be remembered that shortly after the
struggle for the Speakership in the House
which resulted in the election of Mr.-now
General-Banks, Mr.. Lovejoy was speaking
very earnestly, when he was interrupted by
Pryor, of Virginia, who said he did not wish
TO hear any more of such trash. To this Mr..
Lovejoy replied that for six weeks the House
had listened to the & trash" of the Democratic
members, and now it was his turn. Mr.. Love-
joy was at once supported by the Republican
members, and Mr.. Pryor by the southern
Democrats-since, Secessionists. 1t was a
really notable struggle for the maintenance
OF free speech in our Congressional halls, and
had for an incidental result, the famous Pot
ter and Pryor Challenges duel which never
took place.
Mr.. Lovejoy was exceedingly popular in
the district which he represented, where he
possessed great influence, and where his free
and bold discussions of political questions,
while he was yet PASTOR. aided to form the
political opinions of his constituents. He
was as honest as he was fearless. In private
life he was amiable and irreproachable.
