The Harmonious Democracy
The Chicago Times, in an article upon thu
approaching Convention, says:

The Chicago Times, in an article upon the
approaching Convention, says
at v Ill be the authoritative expositor OF
the principles of the Democratic party, and
the only power which can legitimately declare
the means by which these principles shall be
carried into effect. Every member of the
party will be bound by its action. After il
shall have indicated the course of the party,
there can be no such thing as lFar Demo
crdt or q Peace Democrat. There can be
only Democrats with single duty TO perform
to support the cctioa of the Convention
II there shall be found any claiming to be
Democrats who refuse TO perform this duty.
they will be traitors TO their party, working
for It's overthrow by endeavoring TO create
dissension In its ranks. We do not believe
any such will be found"
That is to say the War Democrats and the
Peace Democrats are TO have grand struggle
for the control of the convention. Which
ever party succeeds, the other Is TO abandon
all those principles which II has hitherto held
so sacred and essential TO the nation, and the
conquering faction is TO dictate the course to
be pursued by the minority Oae side will give
I up all hopes OF peace, aud maintain with all
theirstrength this wicked, unholy, cruel, az.
gressive war; or the other will submit in ST.
lenee 10 see the flag of the Union dishonored

Praisoworthy and Noble Hearted Bows,

Yesterday morning we advertised in the
Press the loss Of a package of money, the
property of an industrious, hard-workiug wo-
man-Mrs. Shehan, who lives on Cumberland
Place. There was about $500 in al,-s3so in
bank notes, a $40 gold piece and a small
amount of silver.
About o'clock-two hours after the paper
was dislributed-the package was brought TO
our office by a lad of perhaps thirteen sum
mers, CLEMENT w. oRMsBY, son of Mr..
Marcus ormsby, of New York, formerly OF
this city, who is here on a visit. When he
found the package In Park street he was ac-
companied by another lad, few years younger,
named EUGENE G. WILLIAMS, son of Capt.
c. +. Williams, Of this city.
The package was returned without the
slightest diminution or spoliation, and tie
noble fellows declined everything in the shape
of reward, the Consciousness of having done
righteous act and OF having lifted load
from deserving sufferer being all the reward
which they coveled. The owner of the money
was willing and even anxious to make some
return for the recovery of the small savings OF
fourteen years of toll, but the manliness of The
little fellows forbid them 10 receive reward
for such an act, farther than small memento
in the shape Of a japanese silver coin of the
value of perhaps half dollar. Master Orms-
by has been child Of good luck. In Boston
he found package of $500, which he restored
TO the owner, for which be received gener-
Gus "thank ye" and slam OF the door in his
face, And at another time he found rich
bracelet, on the return Of which the fair owner
forced him to accept ten dollars reward.
1t is pleasant TO record such deeds. Boys
who are thus honest, who always restore
to the rightful owner property thus found, de-
clining all reward, especially from those who
can Ill afford to pay it, need have no fear Of
failure in the world. In the long run such in
teglity will win success and extort common
dation from those who have not the moral
power to act up to so honorable standard.
Heaven will impress its signet upon their
brows, brighter and more ineilaeeaba than the
gems which bedeck the cogonals of royalty.

MEssRs. EDITORS Why is there such
apathy on the part of our citizens and our au-
thorities on the subject Of the draff. Is Port
land to BE- outdone by every little town In the
county? Why is not some action taken TO
raise money to secure such men as are ready
to volunteer for liberal bountys am IN
formed that scores of men are being obtained
ia the city to apply on the quota of towns
paying large bountes, aud believe it to be
true. To my certain knowledge three men
left the city yesterday to enlist In Saco In or
der 10 secure the $500 that town has raised
for each man OF her quota. Every one of
these men might have been secured TO this
city, and the stigma of being compelled to
drdJt avoided by prompt and vigorous action
on the part Of our wealthy citizens. 1t is not
TOO late now to obtain many men who are
sun waiting Tor some action Ia this direction.
VIII not some one move in this matter at
once? Let the men subject to draft call
meeting at the City Hall, and see how much
money they can raise; then let another meet
ing be held by our wealthy citizens who are
not subject by law to military duty, but who
are bound by obligations no less sacred, to Go
their part towards helping the Government 10
raise men. But few days remain, and what
ever is done must be done quickly. Callupon
the authorities for a statement OF just the
number required TO fill our quota, then re-
solve to pay every man bounty higher than
any other town in the State, and the men will
soon be found. @.

Beautiful Phenomenon.

Last evening at little past 10 o'clock
that "calm, still hour''-those who were for
tunale enough to be in the streets were de-
ligated with one of the rarest and most beau
tlful Of all the varied phenomena of the heav-
ems. A lunar rainbow, distinct as though il
were a golden grdle, brilliant as the most
splendid Aurora Borealis, and fleeing as a
dream, stretched from horizon to horizon in a
line running due east and west. For few
moments it shone with great brilliancy, bu,
scarce had IL reached its maximum, when 1t
began to fade gradually away. In light pniIs
like the spray Of the sea or the winters snow
scattered before gentle but unstable breeze
1t gradually disappeared; and in ten minutes
no more was left than a slight trace OF itsex.
istence, as faint as The milky way. Such phe
nomena are OF rare occurrence. and we doubt
If one hundred persons liz the city had the
pleasure of witnessing this.
