The Clinton (La.) Patriot, after
nearly three years suspension, has
been revived by Edward J. PUllen
& Co. 1t appears in new dress and
makes very neat and handsome ap-
pearance. In a humorous article, re-
terripg to its revival, the Patriot
remarks:
One fine morning in June, 1858,

administered poppy or msndEagola

was grey, and now on waking up
it has changed to a deep blue, and
this strange metamorpoSiS of cOoI
might afford naiIgr Tor speculation
to student OF the aDtuuse science OF
natural magic, but the Patriot not
caring a fig for natural magic has
had resort to the rules Of natural .
sense, and solves the matter thus. In
April lS6l We pat on our grey suit
We did all in our power faithfully,
zealouSly and willingly to uphold the
merits of the color. While asleep

tending the elective franchise No
intelligent man will suppose that we
mean to condemn all Methodists and
Methodist congregations in the
North. We know that there were
many individuals and clergymen
who refused to foment discord or to
meddle, as churchmen, with political
affairs. But it is an indisputable
fact that the great body of the Meth
odist Church North, in the name Of
Christianity, and rs a religious or
ganization, energetieally promoted
and prosecuted our civil war. WheQ
the destinies Of the country are SO
greatly influenced BY such men and
such churches, and when we remem-
Der what they have done in the past,

The s 1eakership.
FANNY OTIS.
CHARLES OTIS,

The subject pf the selection cf State and
Legislative officers for the coming wear
has been very pleasantly discussed by diff
ferent correspondents of the American
but. As it seems to me. without fitting
prominence being given to the position and
character of Hancock County's candidate
for Speaker of the House of Representa-
tivcs, Theodore {. Wootlman. Esq. OF
Bueksport
1t is not often that Hancock County pre-
scnts candidate for any State or Legisla-
tive office, and it is to our credit that when
such II claim is made. it is urged in favor
of against whom no personal nor po-
liticsl objection can consistently be raised.
Twenty-fise years Of honorable practice al
the bar has made Mr.. Woodman known to
the citizens of this part Of Maine, as n
faithful counsellor and sound lawyer
He Is President Of the Bucksport Bank, a
position requirin. energy. tact and bust
ness talent of high order.
In the Legislative sessions Of 1858 and
1859, as n member of the House OF Repre-
sentatives he proved himself good le.is-
lator, and in the latter session, as Chairman
If the Judiciary Committee. took the lead
in House that counted among its men,
bers many old and experienced men.
l am sure from personal observation
that few men in the Legislature Of 1866
had a higher reputation than Mr.. Wood
man, and | do not speak without the
book" when 1 say that ut the close of the
session there was quite a general talk
among the old and prominent members
that should he be returned the next House
would make him Speaker. His fellow
citizens in his town have reelected him
with the hope that this expectation shall
be realized. and knowing that lie is an ,,n-
obtrusive man who never sounds his own
trumpet, have felt constrained to write
these few words in hi, favor. lie has
not nade stump speeches through the
whole wide North, like his competitor, Mr.
Barker, but duriug ten years he has never
been found wanting in his duty to the
cause. and has always filed all places to
which lie has beeti called, with high credit
he influence OF such men is constant,
never failing. aud il no degree dependent
