To the Editor Of the Press:
The attention Of our Legislature ought to
be called to Mr.. BlaIne's bill, offered at the
present session of Congress, providing for the
assumption by the National Government of
the war debts of all the loyal States. Maine
is deeply interested in the early passage of
this wise, just, and patriotic bill.
In the first place justice demands that the
nation, for whose preservation all these debts
have been incurred, should promptly relieve
the loyal States from their heavy individual
liabilities; unquestionably they should be re-
garded as short loans to the General Govern
ment in aid Of the war for the suppression of
the rebe llion, and ought at once to be provid-
ed for by Congress, by reimbursing principal
and interest. s ".
The war broke out so suddenly and on such
a gigantic scale that the National Government
could not, at any rate did not, provide sufi-
cient inducements to fill and recruit the vol
unteer force required, and the States and
towns came to the rescue with bounties, aids
to families, &C., and there Is no excuse for not
repaying the loan now.
Then the National Government has, by ft +,
national banking system, control and COM
mand Of the market and unlimited power to

To all such we commend the following facts
gathered from the active life-labors ofa stillyie-
orous and by no means elderly man. We're
ter to Rev. Il. M. EATON, of Readfield.
MIR. Eaton commenced preaching twenty
nve years ago. Since that time, as we learn
from a private note, he has preached 4O21 ser
mons, ofhciated upon an average at forty fu-
nefais year, and delivered large number of
Temperance, Lyceum and Masonic addresses.
He established the Eaton Boarding School,
at kents Hill, and was its proprietor for nine
years For six years past he has preached
regularly to the same congregation in the
town Of Mt. Vernon,-a town adjoining his
own,-and still breaches to the same society.
More than half ofhis sermons are written out
in full, requiring him, to do so, oten to spend
half of the night in writing. ue-
For the last seven years he has been ae-
lively engaged In trade, doing as large bust
ness as any other merchant in his town. Fo,
nine years out Of the last fifteen he has serv-
ed as one Of the Superintending School Com
mittee of the town. Last winter be ablv
represented the town of Readfeld In the Leu-
islature, preaching every Sabbath during the
session. In addition to his other labors, since
his professional life commenced he has writ
ten the "ChilPs Catechism,o published by J.
P. Magee, Boston, and the "Itinerants Wife,

Book Concern.

Proper Position of the Negro.

A few days since copperhead contempora-
ry had a paragraph-false In fact, of course
about colored man and white woman en-
tering that select and fashionable place of
amusement, Deering Hall, and he went on to
state that commotion was created, and to
save disturbance the negro was required to
walk out, &c.
The meaning Of all this was, that a white
woman is disgraced by sitting or walking by
the side of a colored man, no matter how we'll
dressed, well-educated and well-deported he
may be. Now we frequently see in passing
through our streets, ladies as white and fair
as the most spotless lily, dressed in the ex-
treme offashion, evidently well-educated and
belonging to the first families, sitting in the
same carriage and on the same seat with col
ored man, "black as the ace of spades" We
have never noticed that such ladies, under
such circumstances, appear to feel degraded,
or as though they were in the slightest degree
compromising their dignity. Now why Is 1t,
pray, that colored man, free man, may
not sit in the family pew at church, or with
the family in the lecture room or theatre, as
well as to sit in the family carriage, and on
the seat with the pet and pride of the house
hold? Does he smell less Extensively while
holding the reins than while enjoyinga lee
ture or listening to a sermon?
Some men would eject negro from a rail
car or street car, and yet send him all around
town with their fashionable daughters, to
wait upon and protect themi They would
consider it an insult for him to take an un-
occupied seat by their orn side in q rail car or
. stage coach, and yet seat him In q na,Tow
carriage BY the side of icifs and daughter
Such are some Of the freaks of fashion.
Such facts show what some peoples notions
are Of the negro's proper position. A cores
pondent of a western paper hits the thing off
admirably in recent letter describing trip
from Boston to Washington by the cars. Dat
ing from Washington he says:
"A rapid passage by cars brought me to this
city, with nothing of special moment on the
way. Yes, there was one thing. At station
In Maryland, ere the train stopped, a highly
genteel lady stepped out and was met on the
platform oy gertlemanly colored man. He
touched his hat with courtly Difference, took
her satchel, walked politely by her side to q
carriage near by, assisted herin, seated himself
BY her side and droue ofT 50 Ndi
was just raising my hands In holy horror
at this sad proof Of the wretched results of
1radicalism," when it occurred to me that the
man was doubtless serrant. Ny vexed soul
found peace. folded said hands In sweet
complacency, reflected with inward satisfac-
ton on the delightful and just proprieties Of
society, which do not allow colored people to
ride in the street cars in the city of brotherly
love, had just passed through, and felt sure
that, as yet, my beloved country was sate."
