The enlargement Of our daily edition Is equivalent
to the addition of between three and four columns to
its size. This additional space will be devoted to de-
tails OF important events, which we have heretofore
been obliged to give in brief and to selections from
current literature, grave or gay, such as we have
lately been obliged to omit altogether.
What the character of the paper thus enlarged will
be, its past history will show. The PRESS was es-
tablished primarily to represent the Republican par
ty Of Maine. 1t was impossible for the controlling
party of the State to remain voiceless in this city.
The PRESS will continue to defend the principles of
the Liberal party Of America. The war has closed
one great cycle in our national history-the cycle
during which aristocracy at the South and democra
cy at the North grew up side by side, period of
jealousy and conflict, resulting in appeal to arms
and the victorious supremacy of the democratic prn
cple. We have entered state of transition, which
seems likely to prove longer than most of antici
patcd. The PRESS will insist upon settlement
which viii secure the fruits of our victory. Nothing
is settled till it is settled right. We must have de-
mocracy at the South well as at the North-equal
rights for all secured by equal laws, freedom of
speech freedom Of the press, impartial suffrage. OF
the profound convictions Of the Republican party OF
Maine, the Press will remain faithful exponent.
The present year will probably witness the extern
sion of the telegraph round the world. The compile
ton of that great enterprise will compel change

BURLINGTON, VT, Nov. 26. An Irish
row occurred at Rutland this afternoon.
Revolvers, stones and clubs were freely
used, and one young woman WAS fatally
shot.
The above item we find In the tele.
graphic columns OF the Boston journal
OF yesterday morning as special dis.
patch. We have seldom seen . news
item in the public press 20 radically
wrong, it containing not word OF truth
from beginning to end with the except,
ion that a "young woman was fatally
shot" There was no Irish row." and
no "revolvers, stones and clubs used.
That reporter, who, as usual, was un-
doubtedly "present on the spot" INNS,
have seen things throuh glass.
We notice that the Burlington Times
OF yesterday morning, probably by the
same reporter, is led into the same error
with the exception that it places the oc'
currence Of the "row" on yesterday at

the appearance of that journal contain.

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER %, 1867.
The Annual Thanksgiving

To-day has been set apart by the Pres.
dent OF the United States, as = day Of
National Thanksgiving and Praise to
the Almighty Ruler of Nations, for the
blessings with which he has crowned
our common country in its restoration
to peace, and the plenty which has filled
our storehouses, and the many other
manifest indications OF goodness that
have marked the progress OF our conn.
try during the year now drawing to Its
close. This day has also, In accordance
with an ancient custom OF our fathers,
been designated by the Chief Msgis-
trate OF this Common wealth, as q day
OF Public Thanksgiving, Prayer and
Praise" for the manifold mercies that
have been bestowed upon Us as q people
and q State. 1t is we'll for us to stop
amid the busy scenes and realities OF
life, to recount the goodness o. God in
bestowipg upon US as individuals and
communities, so much OF prosperity and
happiness as has been allotted to as dur
ing the passing year, and thus renew our
obligations to God, to ourselves and our
country.
The annual recurrence o, the Thanks.
giving festival brings to the people OF
New England hallowed and precious
acknowledgements OF other days
friends long since passed away, and
brings before rs the past more wildly
than any other re- union OF the year.
AS families gather around the fes.
tive board to-day, the presence Of vacant
chairs will remind many OF the ties OF
kindred and friendships that have been
broken by the inroads that war has
made, and desolate and cherries will be
the heart of many q widow and orphan
as they partake OF the repast so richly
enjoyed In days OF yore, when an IN.
broken family assembled around that
board. 1t is well these memories come
over the spirit at such an hour, lest we
should be led to forget the friendless
and the poor, the widow and the orphan,
as they come to the frugal meal, pre-
pared amid sadness and sorrow. Let us
then, as the father and mother, brother
and sister, friend and the stranger, that
is within our gates, gather around the
table spread with the bounties of kind
Providence, prepared by loving hands
remember those in sorrow and distress
as we pass the happy hours, thus max
ing the occasion not only one Of happi-
ness but Of pleasant memories, tender
sympathiss, and charitable emotions,
and it will not have been In vain that
we have given thanks and praise for the
protecting care OF our God, who has so
grsclously watched over US.

A COMPLIMENT TO Gov. PAaE.--We
take pleasure In presenting to eur read
ers the following merited compliment to
the administration OF Governor Page,
taken from the Burlington Free Press !:
The Legislature, we believe, adopted all
of the recommendations Of Governor
Page, presented in his message, with one
exception. His sensible recommends
tion in reference to the collection Of
taxes, to the effect that the proper off.
GERS be required to include In one rate
bill all the State, county, town and other
taxes, as is done in Massachusetts and
other States, was duly Incorporated In a
bill but met the opposition of every
man in the House who was, or had ever
been tax collector-we suppose because
it would be likely to diminish the CON-
missions allowed to-collectors, and
failed.
But the other important suggestions
OF the Governor were adopted; and OF
the resulting legislation, that for the de-
velopment Of, manufactures in the State
and for the reformation Of the attach.
ment law, will make his first term oil
Office memorable, II nothing else does.
