POLITICAL.

We nublish, in another column extracts
from the Augusta correspondence OF the Bos
ton Adrertiser and damaging admission from
tbe Bangor Times which makes it certain that
a little knot of Bangor politicians is hoping
10 control the Name Soldiers and Sailors
Convention, and through that convention to
dictate to the Republican party of this State.
An that is needed to defeat that scheme is its
exposure The soldiers and sailors of Maine
viii not knowingly put themselves in any
such false position. 1t is proper to add that
some of the names appended to the call were
used without authority, and that all of
them, 50 far as we know, are gentlemen who
are incapable of lending their influence to
further schemes of men whose names do not
appear and whose organ is politically neither
fish, flesh nor fowl, but only and always the
Bangor Times. Ii the convention is fully at
tended, so as fairly to- represent the soldiers
and sailors of Maine, the little game of the
Times and its friends will be blocked, as it de
serves to be. ...'
1t is again rumored that the Congression-
al joint committee on reconstruction has failed
to agree. 'fhe people are pretty well agreed
at home on the main features OF the policy to
he pursued, and will not sustain any man
who stands hisgling with eleven obstinate
fellows" about unimportant matters of detail.
Let us have report explicit and sound on
The main points, and the minor difficulties will
take care of themselves.
