HAsHEEsH CANDY!

The attention of thepublic is invited to Hasheesh
medicine known for the OF all diseases of the
Throat Lungs and Nervous System. The proprie-
tors, in thus offering it, feel confident that trial viii
fully sustain the high reputation it has already
quired in various parts ofthe United States To those
who let their preudices always blind their Judgment
is useless to present facts arguments but to 9TH
feel that it will be sufficient to say that we offer
no new discovery experiment; our goods are stand
ard. In the East, Hasheesh is the beginning and
the end of Medicine; it is used for numberless dis
cases. and that it is used with success need only
refer our readers to the unlimited testimony of trav
eers in all ages. That it should so long have escap
ed the practical science of the Western Verdi is
astonishing fact; but that is prepared in such
form as to make it pleasant, SAFE and above ALL eff
fectve, there can be doubt that it is destined to
obtain the confidence OF the public, and especially OF
those for whose relief it is prepared Invalids
be assured that it contains not particle of opium,
or anything else that is in any way injurious to the
system, but that it is an agreeable and permanent
tonic. ~

The Income Tax.


The telegraph has already announced that
the House of Representatives agreed to re-en-
act the present law for the taxation of in
comes, merely raising the limit of exemption
from 5000 to 1000. The proposition submit-
ted by the Committee of WAYS and Meons
reads as follows:
That section one hundred and sixteen bo
amended by striking out all after the enacting
clause and inserting in lieu thereof as follows !:
That there shall be levied, collected, and paid
annually upon the gains, profits, and income
of every person residing. in the United States
IA duty of five per cent on the excess over
$1,000, and like duty shall be levied, collect
ed, and paid annually upon the gains, profits
and incomes of every business, trade, or pro
fession carried on in the United States by per
sons residing without the United States, and
like duty shall be levied, collected, and paid
annually upon the interest or dividends &C.
cruing upon investments within the United
States, or upon bonds or other securities oil
the United States, or of corporations, or citi-
zens thereof.l And the duty herein provided
for shall be assessed, collected, and paid upon
the gains, profits, and income for the wear
ending 31st day OF December next preceding
the time for levying, collecting, and paying
said duty.
Mr.. Pike of Maine, moved to strike out the
portion of the above amendment enclosed in
brackets, and to insert the following:

Political Controversy.

A communication in Tuesdays argus, ov-
err the signature patriot" raises the following
interesting question:
How shall we get rid of the low slang, the
yituperatiOn, the personalities, which too often
characterize, not to say disgrace, political
campaigns, and which do no manner OF good
to anybody? How shall we eliminate this
rowdyish element from the political canvass,
and cOnfine it to a manly discussion OF the
merits of the policy represented by each of
the two parties, and to consideration of the
fitness of the candidates for the honest and
competent discharge of the duties of the Of
fees for which they are respectively nomi-
mated?
The method proposed by "Patriot' is, that
the candidates nominated by the parties in this
State shall canvass the State together, holding
ajoint meeting and speaking once at least in
every county. The plan is not Objectionable
on the score of novelty, nor indeed on any
other, if the candidates themselves choose to
embrace it, But we are unable to see how
such debate, occurring once in each county
during the campaign, is to eliminate the row.
dyish element from the canvass. The press is
the great forum of political discussion in eve
ry free country. Every day in Bangor, Bath,
Lewiston and Portland, and weekly in every
village in, the State, the discussion will 60 on.
The dignity and candor displayed by the rival
candidates in their fifteen public discussions
in the several counties, will be lost upon the
great body of the people unless the press re-
peats and reflects those admirable qualities.
While in Cumberland County they address
hundreds once, the newspapers of Portland
will address thousands every day.
The practical advantage of "Patriot's" sug-
gestion lies in his honest condemnation of
the slack of dignity and lack Of truthfulness
and fairness" which have too much character
lied political discussion. The existence and
expression of such feeling will do much to
repress the evil, but the correction will not
come by transferring political discussion from
the press to the stump. 1t is the press itself
that must rise to meet the demands of high
er public sentiment. We agree with the dr.
gus in its editorial comments upon "Patriot's"
communication: "The approaching elections
are to be the most important ever held in this
country. In the discussion of so vital an is
sue, let us by all means have candor, dignity
and ability"

The East Maine Methodist Conference on the
State of the Country.

0tbt0 u tuo SOuuGry.
The following resolutions, adopted by the
Methodist Conference recently in session at
Waldoboro, have been forwarded to us for pub
LEGATION. We have alluded on previous &C.
casion to the significance of these declarations
from the Methodist clergy. Abody of men
who have consecrated themselves entirely to
the work of the ministry, who have no per-
manent home in this world, the true church
militant, standing always ready to march at
the word of command-what they say has a
directness, an intensity of purpose, which
springs largely, no doubt, from their habit of
laboring for immediate results, striking with
all their might on the head of the nail, know
ing that their time in any place is short 1t
a significant fact that these men, the rep1e-
sentatives of the largest religious body in the
country, so clearly and definitely put them
selves on the side of equal rights for all, recog-
nizing it as religious duty so to enroll them
selves for the great conflict. We invite special
attention to the quaint suggestion of the fifth
resolution:
ReSOtUeU, InaC we Ouer our most sincere
thanks to Almighty God for the success of our
arms, the abolition of American slavery, and
the return of peace with all its blessings to our
beloved land.
Resolved That it is the imperative duty of
the American people to manifest practical
sympathy for the brave men who bore the dear
old flag through the storms of battle; and es-
pecialiy for ali disabled soldiers and Sailors and
widows and orphans of soldiers and sailors,
who died to preserve the principles and lnst1tu-
tons of the Pilgrim fathers, and of the heroes
and patriots of the Revolution.
Resolved, That heart and heart and hand In
hand with all good men, standing here before
s sne all-seeing eye, we solemnly pledge our
selves to each other and to God, that while life
snail last we will never cease our efforts or our
prayers until the ciuil and political rights of all
persons are secured, throughout the Length and
breadth of our land.
ResolUed, That we would make honorable
mention of the brave and noble men in our
Congress, who, in the more sublime battle of
ideas, Of thoughts and of principles, unawed
by influence and unbribed by gain, have so
grandly sustained the principles for which our
heroes died,

GAIL HAMILTON has in the press of her pub
fishers, Messrs Ticknor & Fields, Boston, a
new volume specially adapted to summer read
ing, and bearing the taking title Of Summer
Rest" Most of the articles in this volume are
now for the firsttime printed, and will be found
equal to any of the authors most brilliant es-
says. Halicarnassus appears again on the car
pet; and his exploits in the way of gardening
and other domestic matters are made very
amusing Gail Hamilton, though occasionally
coarse and often harsh, is never dull. Possess
ed of sharp and ready wit, speaking boldly,
and that too upon topics wherein women have
been supposed to have but little interest, she
has already gathered about her an audience,
which, by its hearty appreciation of her writ
ings, attests the truth of many of her convic-
tons. ~
The success of her various volumes has been
remarkable, and this new collection from her
pen will doubtless find as many admirers as
those which have gone before. H
