In looking over the list of Representatives
elected In this County, find there were but
three returned who were in the House las,
winter Two OF those are from this city; our
faithful Representatives, Messrs. Larrabee and
Webb. Twas, therefore. truly glad to see, in
your issue OF Saturday, that Hon. MAR
SHALL CRAM, OF Brunswick, had been re.
elected, by an increased majority of twenty
dive over his large vote of last year. This
was a merited tribute to worthy aud faith
fal man, and 1t gave me pleasure TO know that
in this instance, "a prophet was not without
honor in his own country" The vigilance
and ability of our friend c. was very soon
made apparent to all observers Of legislative
proceedings last winter. No measure-and
here were many Of great importance-was
brought forward, that did not receive his
careful scrutiny, and if not approved by his
Judgment, it had his most determined OPPOSE
ton. Fear or favor weighed with him less
han tho dust ia the balance. Ever on the
watch, and rarely out Of his seat, he soon be
anne known as the most vigilant sentinel ON
he ramparts. The State owes him a large
iebt OF gratitude, for many wild and ex-
travagant scheme strangled in its birth, or
snothered before 1t saw the light, when it
was found that Marshall Cram could not be
brought to favor il. When we find such men
returned, we feel that the interests Of our
people will be safe. With the three Represen-
atives named-Messrs. Larrabee, Webb and
NrA'n, from this County, among the eighteen
70 which we are entitled, our citizens NAV
eel that they have host. The new men on
ne Administration side, are men of mark.

False Statements Corrected.

81 NEW ORLEANS, La, Sept, 8, 1854.
To the Editor Of the Press
1 see, through the columns Of another jour
nal, that DR.. Carr, OF the 10Th Maine Regt.,
in order to frame an excuse for his dismissal
from the service of the United States, has
published letter in your journal, containing
utter falsehoods in regard to the cause of his
dismissal.
This officer was dismissed for passing man
entirely unit for military service, and so pro-
nounced by several surgeons here, as well %
by Board for the Examination OF Improp-
er Enlistment" for nothing else. The
case a specimen OF several others nom the same
decision had not reached Washington at the
time of his dismissal, and which he is yet TO
be called to account for,) was so evidently a
fraud on the Government, that 1t attracted
tn, notice of the Assistant to the Provo
n irshal General OF the United States he e,
who was examining the men in the hospitals
for admission into the Veteran Reserve Corps
This, with others, was by him forwarded TO
Washington, and led to the dismissal before
the converting OF the Special Board here.
As to my being jealous or having spite
against him, it is simply ridiculous and i'm.
possible, as never saw the man in my life, To
my knowledge; never heard OF him until his
Ignorance or neglect forced him upon my no
tice for few days, and bad remained after
wards entirely unconscious of his existence
n his handfUnrk
came before the Board for another week, and
then he had been completely forgotten till |
had notice OF his letter in your journal, which
have not yet seen.
As my commission, too, Is as far abooe his,
as is the President Of the Uuited States ADORE
the Governor Of the State, cannot see wha,
there is in his position, or attachments, or
character, as developed in his letter, to awsk-
en- any Jealousy on my part. As to spite, it
is just that which jury has to the accused,
appointed to examine and report upon case
10 which the principles of justice are involved,
without reference to an Individual or con-
seriousness Of hss personal existence. I L fiat
ter myself that, il look upon this officer at
all, shall look dopn upon and not up to
him.
Without reference TO the other cases yet
to be acted upon, this officer has been for the
present reinstated; when the others are
brought up, he will not be able TO offer as an
excuse the Jealousy or spite Of every hospi-
pital surgeon In the city. 1t Is fair to suppose
that the same tendency to Misrepresentation
TO use the nildest terml which chsraeterizes
his letter, has been employed In whatever
course he has pursued Tor his. Justification !;
whether his misrepresentation were from ia.
aoraace Of the facts or from tri!fui malice,I
leave ii for his conscience to determine
Whichever be true, the end is NOT yet.
Trusting, as an act of justice, that you will
insert this In your journal, fbe
/ am, yours respectfully,

WIN /, mot portland's Quota Filled7

In reply to this question correspondents VI
an evening paper of Friday said;
WIN 4 n that the largest and wealthiest city
/, ,ha Stste should be thus remiss la her duty.
The only answer that can be given is that 1t is
nc csnii entirely of our City Government
Thav have not, SO tar as can learn, tried to
have our quota filled. They would like to
have a draft Is this the feeling OF our citi-
zens? Do they back up the city authorities
ia this? think not The people feel that it
would be disgrace to the city to have draft
here, when other cities and towns far interior
to us In numbers and wealth, have, by offering
liberal bouniies, long since filled their quotas.
The same thing might have been done here
just rs well, aud the feeling of Indignation
among our citizens towards the City Govern.
ment Is both strong and deep that they should
permit this stigma TO rest upon us, which ieel-
ing will be shown by the meeting tonight at
the new City Hall, il am not greatly mis-
taken. t.FstsEH 1as4"a
This severe attack upon the City Govern
ment, was editoriaily commended to the READ
ers of the paper in which 1t appeared, anu !.
was. moreover, placed under the editorial
head.
Why is It then. that the editor of the Press,
when called upon in the City Hall meeting.
said he thought the reprimand of their cor
resnondent was not entirely devoid of justice,
and that be, as member OF the City Govern
ment, disclaimed all responsibility for its he.
elect, should be grossly and causelessly as
sailed in that same paper, and honored with a
column and half Of editorial abuse?
No matter iohy it was. Our unwillingness
20 u x,a -, ,,iaasant oontrovarev NTH any ma
per that is laboring, though with eccentricity,
in tine Union cause, has prompted us to remain
silent under good many unjust attacks from
the same source, and we shall do so now, with
the brief reference we have already made to it.
The editor Of the Press made no attack up
on the Mayor or the City Government. he
believed, and he said, that he thought there
had been negligence; he says so now, and he
| regrets that such convictions are forced upor
him. He is not ignorant of the law; thai
there is no legal authority for city bouniies
aud that the law designedly discourages such
bounties but he further realizes that whet
that law was passed the $500 Communication
clause in the CONSUMPTION law was in full
force, and regulated and kept down the price
Of substitutes. The law was passed 10 secure
fall quotas, and with the national law un
changed it would have done so, but it will MOI
now, Other cities have taken the responsible
ity to offer bounties, and have promptly filled
their quotas, and we would like to see ths
Union representative who will refuse to legal
ize their action. We would have had Port

severe hardship, and we would strain verl
hard to avoid it. This, we believe, is the feel
