MONTGOMERY BLAIR.-In looking back u,,on
the political campaign which has terminated
so gloriously, We can but wonder at the want
Of tact and sagacity of the johnson leaders
Sending Messrs. Doolittle, Parsons, Taylor and
Blair to New England was a. blunder which
was turned to the advantage of the Repnbl;-
cans. Montgomery Blair was the most mis-
chievous and malignant of the number. His
speech in the fremont Temple was Of the most
revolutionary and infamous character. II
damaged every one who could be poltica,Iv
damaged, that participated in the meetinS
Wherever the Republicans need somebody r.
recruit for the party, they should employ Mont.
gomery Blair to play the demagogue. Boston
Transcript. ''''
Blair's speeches in this city and Biddeeord
had the same effect. The Republicans would
willingly have paid his expenses to stumn the
State and deliver his revolutionary and infa-
nous" speeches.

As a Communion wine it stands unrfvalled, and
churches would do well to examine it for Sacramento
purposes. Purity, delicacy Of flavor and mildness,
are all combined in Muscat Perle.
The HYGIENIC WINE has been submitted to num-

ception of their eyes-everything is hidda,e o.

respondent, the difficulty Of such Identification
unable to find out his own wife when TINS con-
cealed. More than this, it happened that On
one occasion, a lady celebrated for her beantv
and especially distinguished for her fine ewes
Ia Duchess de M, was drawn into ENGAGING in
this pastime, there being only one other nerson
hidden besides herself and this person an old
gentleman mot celebrated for his ewes The
pair were duly concealed and banaa@ed nm.
with nothing but their eyes visible. and then
the persona lady-who was to declare to
whom the respective eyes belonged. was intro
duced. Without a moments hesitation She
walked up straight to where the old semitic
man was placed, and exclaimed "Ah. there is
none but la Duchess de M. who can boast Of
such eyes as these" She had made her choice,
but it was the wrong one.

Reform in England and the Government.

The London Star of November 9TH has the
following:
Rumor has it that the government are ar
ranging brilliant plan for the battling of Re-
formers in the coming session. A reform
scheme, of some sort other will, it is said, be
ment generously offering the House full OPP
portunity of considering it by undertaking not
to proceed with it until the following session.
Thus it is hoped that the Adullamites and all
those on either side who are for delay at any
sincere but rather simple reformers may be in
duced to grant time to government so willing
to undertake the work of reform and so con-
siderate as not to press it forward too eagerly.
Mr.. Disrael, people say, rests all his hopes on
having time on his side in a different sense
from that in which Mr.. Gladstone used the
memorable woods"
The Portland daily press., 1866-11-23
The ue.;sa. Of Raasis.


The London Saturday Review has these
speculations upon the ambitious projects of
Russia curious as specnlations, If not found
ed on truth: -
The early conquest of Bokhara by Russia is
an event which may already be counted upon.
Coupled, as it must be, with the conquest OF
Khiva and the valley of Amu-Daria, it will
undoubtedly be an event of much moment to
our Indian empire. No one supposes that it
will tempt Russia to attack India at least Tor
many years to come; but the opportunities
which she will have of molesting us after these
acquisitions are greatly underestimate Inc
difficult nature of the country which she is an
nexing, and the ridges of the Hindu kush,
which must be surmounted before she can
reach India, are triumphantly pointed 10 as
complete obstacles to all Russian informed
ding. But two things are forgotten. First,
however difficult the country may be at pres
emit for the march of armies, the difficulty will
cease for power actually in possession, which
can march troops to its new frontier, not in bat
tie order, but in convenient detachments. In
the districts already acquired, the roads and
communications have been abundantly inn
proved by digging lines of wells, establishing
settlements at suitable Intervals, and persuad-
ing the nomads to follow agricultural pursuits
In the advance through the Kirghis desert the
Russian base was necessarily on the distant
Ural; but aready in Kokan fertile country
and the cases of Khiva and Bokhara will be
equally suitable. The upper valley of the ANU
Darja is also most favorably spoken Of for its
fertility, and under good government it would
easily support a vast population.
Russia, then, in possession of the whole
country to the Hindu-KNsh, would have no
difficulty in collecting large army at her own
convenience in the extreme south. Next, as
to the passage of the Hindu-Kush it seems to
be forgotten that the.mountains can be turned
by marching on Herat and Candahar, and
thence to the Indus; but at any rate the Hin
| du-Kush is not an imprachcable range. In
yading armies, from the days OF Alexander
dOwnwards, have crossed it repeatedly, and
two at least of its passes are known to modern
travellers to be passable for modern artillery
The danger to Persia when Russia shall over
lap it ON the east, as it does now on the north
is also to be considered. How long would il
take, if Russia desired, to overrun all Persia tc
the Persian Gulf, and seize our telegraph
wires, perhaps the future railway down the
Euphrates valley? These questions are suff
cient to indicate the problems which will b.
raised by the further extension of Russian con
quests inIthe direction of India. Indian states
men must before long address themselves t.
the difficult task of their solution.

AnsDer.-United States 5-2Os of 1864 were
quoted in yesterdays paper at 1O6 IA, and Am
erican gold at 140 IL. 1t is plain therefore that
the value of these bonds in gold was 70 90 a
hundred. If our currency were redeemable in
gold, the quotations would have to represent
values measured by gold and not as now by
irredeemable paper dollars, which with gold at
14O IL are worth seventy one cents apiece
The bonds would therefore be quoted at first
below par. The mere resumption of specie paw
ments will have no effect upon their real value.
Whether they would subsequently advance or
decline, would depend upon the rate of inter
est. If money were scarce and interest high.
| they would decline. With an easy money
market and a low rate of interest they would
advance.
