THE MAINE Law, IN THE CoUNTY.-Under
the laws of this state, each Incorporated
town has the right TO license the sale of ale,
beer, and spurious liquors. So also has the
board of supervisors the right to license or
not license the sale of the same in the county
towns not Incorporated. The republican
board of supervisors for this county persls-
teutlv refuses to license, thus enact1ng the
Maine law throughout the county, in it's
most odious form The result is continual
prosecutions for its violation, q great waste
of time and great bill OF expense to the
tax payers,-and no revenue. If the board
would grant licenses, as is done in many
counties, the sale of liquor would then be
made under the restraint of such wholesome
rules as the board might adopt; the tax pay
ers OF the county would be relieved of all
the expense of litigation and e considera-
BILE revenue turned into the county treas.
ury. No more liquor would be sold or used
taan now, and ali the vexatious law suits
would be avoided But Maine lawism is ont
of the isms of the negro-sufrage party, and
50 long as the people elect men of that party
to Office these heavy expenses and high taxes
will 90 on and no revenue be derived.

died very suddenly yesterday at II o CLOCK OF
heart disease Mr.. Bowling came to Rock

ueo L. Davenport, now president Of the Dav-

where he has since that time been engaged in
mercantile pursuits-a period OF nearly thir-

Bowling has always been a citizen highly

BEAUTIFUL SENTIMENT.

The beautiful extract below is from the
pen Of Hon. Geo. S. Hillard:
/ confess that increasing years bring with
them an increasing respect for men who do
not succeed in life, as those words are
commonly used. Heaven is said to be q
place for those who have not succeeded up
on earihj and it is surely true celestial
graces do moi best thrive and bloom IN the
hot blaze of worldly prosperity. Ill success
sometimes arises IRON a superbundance Of
qualities in themselves good-from a con.
cience too sensitive, taste too fastldious, a
self-forgetfulness too romantic, modesty
too retiring. will not go so far as to say
with living poet, "that the world knows
nothing of its greatest men," but there are
forms of greatness or at least excellence,
which "die and make no sign;" there are
martyrs that miss The palm but not the stake
heroes without the laurel, and conqueror'
without the triumph.
