Tho President has recently ordered the

That body will probably not do so; and il
not done the johnson appointee will appeal

VINO ARE JuBILANr.-Tho Norfolk (Va.)
Post. reconstructed" newspaper speaks, in
the following coppcrhcad style, of the Presi.
DENTS Veto OF the Freedman's Bureau Bill :
"Since the morning ofJuly 22nd, 1861,
when the news Of the great Southern victory
achieved by Beauregard over Mcdowell, and
the awful rout OF the Federal army on the
plains of Manassas, was borne throughtho south,
on the wings of the wind, as it were, carrying
jubilation into every loyal Southern home,
and gladdenng every true Southern heart there
has been no news received with so much 70
joicing by the people Of the South, as that con.
taiued in the dispatch informing them that the
President had vetoed the Freedmen's Bureau
bill. This is the greatest victory they have
achieved during the war-grcater than any Of
the feats OF arms Of Stoncwall jackson or of
Robert Ice; and it has gwen them more plea
sure than had General Lee had been elected
Governor of Virginia. They have found an
ally in the President worth more 10 them than
the alliance Of France or England, and they
now begin to see, even rs they saw foreshadow-
ed at Manassas. the final triumph Of tho great
Southern cause"

AID FOR FREEDNEN.-Ephraim Flint, Sccrc-

makes an appeal for aid to Freedmen, in an
elaborate public address. lie states that "the
officers of tho American Freedmen's Aid Com
mission estimate that ono million of dollars is
needed Immediately for the purchase of blank.
cts and personal clothing, for the erection Of
temporary shelters, and for tho opening and
maintenance of additional orphan asylums."
Mr.. Flint adds: ave would recommend that
town or city societies, auxiliary to the State
Society, or committees, be formed without de-
lay; that tho officers of tho late Sanitary and
Christian Commissions devote their energies to
work for the Freedmen, that towns and parish
cs be thoroughly canvassed for money and cloth.
ing; that public speakers, especially those who
have been South, volunteer their services for
public meetings; and yet that no people wait
for the call or aid OF an agent. Delays may
result in DEATH"

BIDDEFoRD, ME-. FRIDAY MORNING, MARCH 8, 1866.
RESOURCES OF MAINE.

A correspondent of tho Portland Press has
colated from the census returns some statistics
relative to tho resources Of this State, which
are worthy Of attention. We, therefore, copy
some of these items for the consideration oil
our readers. 1t appears that the quantity o'
improved lands in the State, in farms, is q
7O4, ,l23 acres, and unimproycd in farms, is
3,O23 ,535, being nearly one fifth part OF the
whole State; the cash value Of which is set
down at s7S, ,6Ss ,225. The whole number Of
farms into which this is divided, is 55,675, OF
which 1855 are between 20 and so acres,
and l9, GIL between so and 100 acres, thus by
small subdivisions giving the faircst room for
thorough cultivation. The average number
of acres in the farms was l03; the increase in
the number of them since 1850 was 1888,
with an increase in the number OF acres i'm.
proved of 664,537.
In sheep, Maine has 4O2.472, standing next
to Vermont; milch cows 1912; horses l47,.
3l4; swine GO.639. The yield of maple su-
gar is 3O6,742 pounds; of maple syrup 32,-
GO gallons. Of butter, Maine contributes
1l,6s7,7Sl pounds, and Of cheese l,799,s62
pounds. The great agricultural staples Of
Maine are hay and potatoes. Of the former
the quantity produced was s75,sOS tons, the
States of Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania
and Ohio exceeding us; in that article there
was an increase over 1850 Of nearly 900 600
tons, and the value of which, estimating II at
the moderate price of $40 per ton. amounts to
the large sum Of nearly $40 100000 Of
Irish potatoes, 0,474,6l7 bushels, exceeding
every State but New York and Pennsylvania,
and yielding at the average price of fifty cents
bushel. S3,ls7 1903. OF barley there is
raised 500, 100 bushels; oats 230 $40 bushels /;
buckwheat 23O,5l0 bushels; pc,s and beans

the last. McClelan's policy just suited his
(Seward's) temperament. SO, from tbH mo-
mcnt of Mr.. Lincolns death, Seward pleaded
for the pardon Of the entire South, and would
have let the whole body Of traitors back into
Congress without pledge for the future. This
able man has impressed himself on the Prcsi.

"Thcrc is one good thing about tho veto it
is so squarcly against Congress that it cannot
be misinterpretcd. Tho people cannot possibly
misntcrprct it. II the President is right there
is but one thing to do, and that is to let in the
Southern delegations at once, and take our
chance with the rebels. Under such u contin.
gency Government bond might be worth
eighty cents on the dollar, and might not be
worth as much. The policy OF tho President
is exactly that of the opposition. So II Re-
publicans are to support it there is no longer
any distinction OF parties. The millennium has
come indeed, for North and South will bc ut
peace and we shall all bc happy-cScept the
poor negro. lie is to tc cared for by his old
masters.
In the FIRST struggle over the veto message,
Seward, wcllcs, Dennisou and McCuloch stood
with the President. Seward and McCuloch
were very active in his fayor-in fact, think
We owe the veto to them. They might have
persuaded the President to let it become law.
Stanton, Harlan and Speed were opposed to the
veto, but Speed was mild in his opposition
Harlan and Stanton were outspoken. Sccrc-
tary Stanton and Gen. Grant have still intiu'
encc with the President, and they should use it
for the welfare of the country. Some one re'
marks that Mr.. Stanton will not leave the cab
met "till he is kicked out" Very likely, and
don't believe the President will dare "kick
the man from the cabinet who kept his place
through the war. The Blairs are in ecstacies
over tho situation. Montgomery has his eye
on q place in the future. The President will
give Offices to Democrats, he says, when they
have sufficient power in Congress 70 give him
support. No doubt this is true"
