Save me from NV Friends >,

The Advertiser thinks, eff any man has
had occasion to utter the above exclamation
President johnson has," and goes on to illus
trate the quality of friendship which Mr..
Johnson is supposed to deprecate, by citing
Gen. Hawley's mild but firm expressions dis
approving the veto message and the 22d Feb
ruary speech. Mr.. johnson has no need tn
lear such disapproval as General Hawley's-
Faithful are the wounds of friend" The
Republican party, temporarily marking the
errors OF the man chosen to carry out their
principles, are rendering him good service. if
he Will hear wisely. 1t is from his new friends
he should pray to be saved, from the men who
year ago united in chorus of abuse like
this, from the Advertiser of March II. 1861.
There seems to be no dispute of the fact
that the new Republican Vice President ofthe
United States was highly intoxicated when he
took the oath of office and made his inceber-
ent and disgraceful speech to the attendant
audience. He was revolving to his partizan
friends, and disgusting to his Democratic op-
ponents present. Senator Sumner could not
refrain from giving vent to the well-grounded
opinion, that he ought to be impeached. And
we have no doubt that movement would have
been made, had the House of Representatives
been in session. The scene was most disgrace
iul to the nation, and Notifying to all. And
the IDEA that beclouds the pride of all lovers of
Inc republic is, that the life of one man alone,
ior iour years to come stands between the of.
nee OF Chief Magistrate, and this man Should

WHEN TO REVIVE THE DEMOCRATIC
PARTY. Hon. John Sherman of Ohio, in a
speech made at Bridgeport, Conn, last week.
in touching on the question of the revival of
the Democratic party, told the following story
describing the simple logic of Governor Tod
of Ohio, an old Democrat, concerning the vi
talizing of the Democracy:
A modern Democrat came to a distinguish
eu democrat of the State of Ohio (Gov. Tod)
t laSt Iail after the war was ended, AID said:
VOW, my friend, you supported Lincoln all
through the war; now the war is over; you
have had everything your own way: and now
suppose we start again the old Democratic
party y WELL" said the old Ohio Democrat
Il don't know but that would be a good thing:
like the Democratic party: was raised in
1t, and stuck to it until it deserted the conn
try and went over to the rebels. Idon,t know
but it would be good thing to revive and nv.
rify the old party; but l would not do If inst
vet" "Ah," said his friend, "when would Won yo,,
do it then" "My friend" said the G IGo
Democrat, "when the Union party shall have
dischary ell in full all the obligations it has as
sumed lring this war; when it shall have
paid all the pensions that are due to the wild
ows of soldiers; when it shall have paid every
dollar OF the National debt incurred during
the war; when it shall have accomplished all
that it has promised to do, then / am willing

THEATRE.-There was fine audience at
Deering Hall on the occasion of the opening
night of the theatrical company of Messrs.
Rogers & Prescott. The play was Gin the
Snow, or Misery and Money" 1t is one of
those sensation dramas which has had great
run in London, and it was placed upon the
stage in handsome manner, with entire new
scenery and mechanical arrangements, which
produced good effect, and elected repeated
applause from the audience. The perform
ances of the two children, Jessie Rogers and
Jennie Prescott, were admirable. Chandler
furnished the music and led the orchestra, and
the large audience appeared pleased with ev-
erything. The marvel of the Sphinx was ex-
planned in highly satisfactory manner, and
much to the amusement of the crowd.
Tonight the same performance win be re-
peated. "a Fr.-.....,-,

SUPREME JUDICIAL COURT.

CRIMINAL TERM-TAPLEY, j., PRESIDING.
WEDNEsDAY.-Anna M. Penney, who was
indicted with her husband, Augustus Penney,
for keeping house of ill-fame, pleaded guilty
and was sentenced to pay fine of s25 and
costs. Her husband has cleared out.
The next case taken up was that of State,
by William B. Irish, libellant VS.. quantity of
intoxicating liquors.
These liquors, valued at about $4,000, were
seized as the property of James Bradley, Jr.,
but were claimed by Mr.. W. L. Smith, of Bos-
ton. The case was tried in the Municipal
Court, and the liquors declared forfeited to the
use of the city, from which decision claimant
appealed. 1t is contended by the State that
the liquors were owned by said Bradley, and
designed for sale in this State. The claimant
contends that he had, before liquors were seiz-
ed, bought them for the purpose of taking
them to Boston for sale.
The trial occupied the greater part of the
day, After the testimony was all out, the case
was submitted to the jury, without argument
from counsel, upon the charge of the Judge,
who told the jury that if they were satisfied
that Smith had purchased the liquors and stor-
ed them for the purpose of taking them to
Boston, with no intent of selling them, or any
portion of them here, he was entitled to have
them delivered up. But if they believed that
the liquors were intended for sale here, they
must be forfeited. The jury was out about one
hour and half and returned with a verdict
for the State, thus forfeiting the liquors to the
city of Portland. The case will be taken up
to the full Court. N. Webb, County Attorney.
for State; Evans G Putnam for claimant. d,
The case of State VS.. Charles Bennett, of
Brunswick, for assault and battery was COM
menced before the LIST jury. The defendant
was a teacher of one of the schools of that
town, and the olfense complainedof arose from
his punishment of William @. Boutelle, one of
his pupils, last December, which punishment
it is alleged was too severe, and was unwar-
ranted by anything the lad had done. Mr..
Webb conducts the prosecution, and Mr. But
Ter appears for the defendant. The lad and
two or three of his comrades were examined.
Mrs. Boutelle was then placed upon the stand
and gave her evidence of the injuries inflicted
upon her son. At the conclusion of her ex-
animation Court adjourned
1t is expected that the case of F. O. u. Smith
will come up to-day, and that motion for con-
tnuance will be submitted by defendant. p,
