manlike course. They must 60 with him, or he
will brush them aside as q cobweb with his
hand. Following close upon the clear and
terse enunciation of his policy in the Missis-
sippi middle between the civil and military
authorities, In which he shows his purpose to
restore the Southern States to full communion
in the Union at the earliest practicable period,
we learn from our Washington dispatches that
there is probability he will soon take another
important step In the good work. The opinion
is confidently entertained that something ap-
preaching general amnesty will be pro-
claimed before long, applying it to the several
States late in rebellion at such times as they
may be prepared to receive it
Who can doubt that such wise, conciliat-
ing and progressive steps, cautiously taken, too,
will have the happiest effectsf The Southern
people are thoroughly cured of rebellious in
tentions; they have seen the utter folly Of them,
and they desire to become again loyal citizens
of this glorious country. In this we feel
assured the President and the mass Of the
people of the North will help them. The fac
tious Jacobins and agitators must stand aside
and let the good work 60 on, or they will be
overwhelmed by an avalanche Of public
opinion.

Our French citizens, who certainly yield to

~ The Seventh lecture of the course
was by G. l.. Holmes Esq, of this village.
Mr.. Holmes is native of Ellsworth, a
graduate of Bowdoin, and at present, a
student in the law Office of Arno Wiswell.
Esq. Combined with good talents, Mr..
Holmes has great industry and pcrscr-
verance. and IA love of knowledge aud the
labor which leads to it. This winter. he
has not only been teaching successfully at
the school room, but he has had classes of
younY gentlemen. under his charge, fitting
for College. This, in addition to his
studies in the Office of which he is a
student. While attending to these labors
and studies he has found time to prepare
the lecture delivered last evening, an
effort showing careful reading, much
thought, and much more than ordinary
powers of analysis. The lecturer aimed
to show the analogy existing between the
different phases of nature rs exhibited by
the teachings of geology, and that of the
growth Of the mind as exhibited by forms
Of government traditions, rcligions.archtc-
ture, literature, &c.
This analogy was traced all through the
history of the world, aud apt and striking
illustrations given. The lecture was well
written, we'll delivered, and gave good
satisfaction to the largest audience yet at
tending these meetings.

MEssRs SAWYER AND BURR In look
ing over the Minutes of the Hancock
Baptist Association to-day, printed at your
office. | noticed for the first time that the
name of ROBERT COLE does not appear in
the list of delegates from the Ellsworth
Church. Rev. Mr.. Cole was chosen, by
my own suggestion, as one of the delega-
ton. The appearance of his name in
that part of the Minutes is entirely 10y
mistake. When the manuscript-minutes
of the clerk were read at the close af the
session, for correction. no member of the
Association suggested that the name was
missing, l infer. therefore, that it is q
typographical error.
| deeply regret the mistake and am en-
tirely willing to be blamed for want of care
in proof reading.

The Peace Conference.

We last week alluded to the efforts o.
the President to ascertain the present feel
ing of the leading rebels in arms against
the National authority. We this week
publish the report of the rebel commission
ers and that of jeff Davis on the result oil
the meeting at Hampton Roads. 1t VIII
be seen that no special result was reached
looking towards immediate peace, though
much good may result from the meeting
indirectly. Mr.. Lincoln satisfied grow
ing public sentiment,-which has been
gradually developing for the past few
months. a sentiment which desired that
peace should be sought through all honor
able channels, and whenever a disposition
was manifested on the other side to lay
down their arms-when he went in person
to see and hear for himself upon what
terms those making war upon the govern
mcnt would fetuill to their old allegiance
The result proves conclusively, that
these self. deluded men have not been SUI
ticicntly punished to make them come to
honorable terms. General Grant, and
Sherman. Sc, must ''move Oh the enc
my" again, and demonstrate to them the
utter hopelessness of their cause.
The people, the soldiers IN camp,
and the citizens that are at home and are
yet unconscripted, no doubt, earnestly de-
sire peace. 1t is said that the soldiers in
Lees army do not fight now as formerly.
The recent fight near Reams Station de-
monstrated this fact. A Richmond CORE
spondent of Southern paper says that
General Lee, remarked. that ''hc was sur
prised at the dependency of the people"
The result of the recent conference, has
been made the occasion for tremendous
cxcrtions to fire the Southern heart"
anew. War meetings have been recently
held in Richmond and means taken to
conquer the dependency of the people.

EWe have not seen a paper yet, we
think, but is quarrelling about the quota.
Is it to be wondered that President Lincoln
desires to have peace established as soon
as possible. If the people will not furnish
the men. the war cannot go OH, aud we
may have to make peace, and before we
get ready. Therefore, let us urge the sew
eral towns to send forward the men called
for. and at once. This matter of quotas
We can arrange hereafter, and perhaps
equalize what seems now so unequal. AT
any rate, when the war D over, the towns
and states which have always responded
with alacrity. will have the most honor
As the officer and soldier that returns from
the war covered all over with scars, will
receive the most praise. so the towns and
states that do the most in this day of the
nations trial. hereafter will reap their du d,
reward. Fill up the ranks. The Craft is
close upon us, and General Grant want Il
few more men, just nae, not six month;
hence, but now.

The quota of the State of Maine, under
the call of the President, for three hun
dred thousand men, dated Dec. 10, 1864 is
$3.50.
This is the number required under the
call after taking into account the credits,
to which the State is entitled, by estimat-
ing the number Of years of service furnish
ed by one, two and three Years men. The
quota of the
First District is ol72
Second District is Ii77

Fifth District is 1864
| In this estimate, the Provost Marshal
General has taken into account, all credits

1864.
In order to equalize this credit, you will
multiply the quota of the District by B
thus reducing it from a three years, to d
one year basis, to the product. add the ex-
cess of years service, and then distribute
this sum to the several sub districts, il,

This gives the number of years service
required by the excess. From this NUM-.
her deduct the excess which the sub-dis-
trict has actually furnished, and the re-
mainder is the actual number of years
service required, which divided by three
gives the actual number of men required
from the sub district under the call.
The quota af the District, under thu
