V'rhe Republican party are keeping mp
a sectional party warfare. They keep ten
States out ofihc Union and call themselves
a Union party.-Machias Union
These ten states over which the Union
sheds so many scalding tears took them
selves ont Of the '.hatcd Union" as they
chose to term it, against all right and jus
tice. and turned their bristling steel towards
the hearts of those who remained true to
the Union. This was not the act Of the
Republican, party and it was not RESPONSE
BILE for it, in any degree. And now hav-
ing tried to get ont of the union, and hav-
ng fought to the bitter end to keep outside
of its authority, there eve be no harm in
keeping them out until they want to get
back. When these states get into gsed
frame of mind and will be willing to come
back with the promise TO behave themselves
or with conditions that shall demand good
behavior and good faith toward the union,
then they will be taken in. 1t will not do
to force them back, 1t will not do to take
them upon trust, especially after the oc-
currcnces of the past two years. 1t might
have been prudent to do so after the cap
ture of Lees army but not now.

I'IiAie's,

AUGUSTA, Feb. IL, 1867.
Friend Sawyer.
During the past week. business of a
more public and exciting nature has en-
crossed the attention of the Legislature.
Among these questions were those rela
ting to the repeal of the laws for the inter
marriage of whites and blacks, and the
repeal of the usury laws, to which made
reference in my last letter.
Unexpectedly the former question stir.
red up much feeling. Many timid men
with prophetic vision saw the rock upon
which our starnch old Republican ship
would strike and founder. They forgot
that four years service to human ri.hts,
and that devotion to principle that has
saved freedom to this continent cannot be
destroyed by matters so trivial as the re.
peal of law that is Of no practical i'm
portance.
The debate was opened by Mr.. Hale in
one OF his best efforts, though without ap.
parent preparation.
AS MIR. Hale will not probably shrink
from the avowal of his convictions, we
will clip from paper at hand an extrac,
from his remarks. twill be found in
another column.)
A bill has passed fixing the cOmpensa-
ton of the Adjutant General at $1,000 Der
annum.
A resolution was introduced in the House
yesterday, by Mr.. Frye of Lewiston con-
templatinS the appointment of Commits

sane Hospital, to be appointed by tho
recommendation Of County delegations
The Commission will consist of three.
with full power to "scnd for persons and
papers !" and will make full report in
writing to the Governor and Council
Some charges are brought against the in
stitution. and it is thought that justice to
the officers as iwell as the editor Ct the
state demands an investigation.
The Legislative Committee on that do
partmcnt. although men of the best ability
and undoubted intregrity. have not time to
make the necessary investigation.
From what We hear, the most trouble
some question is that Of the assumption Of
town liabilities for bountics, by the State.
There may be half dozen men with the
same opinion. hut we have not found them.
We hear that the Committee will make two
reports.
The Liquor Law Committee is drawing
it's business to a close. New teeth will
lie put in. but we doubt e the Constabu-
larry bill will he passed if reported. The
friends of this reform are well represented
in your county by Mr.. Watson Of Sedg-

Hancock County causes the general
Court" but little trouble. No Comfy in
the State presents fewer troublesome ques-
tons. The map Of Hancock County is
not displayed before Committees on divis-

only matter Of legislation relating to your
town was bill granting Messrs. J. T. l.
G.. II. Grant to extend their wharf into tide

Among the nominations made within
few weeks is that Of John O. Sargent, Esq.

The question of increase Of Governors
salary came up to day. in the Senate
Messrs. Woodmon, Caldwell and others
favored $1,000, while Mr.. Green Of Oxford
opposed. lie thought hi. county would
undertake to supply candidates for the Of
fee at $500. We have heard Of "stand.

way. it is strange how some counties do

E5~A well known journalist who was

says that while there during the war, he
one day asked See.Seward his opinion OF

Seward. is great mana man so full OF
genius and Of such power that if he had a
particle of common sense we should have
to hang him. But he is id fool and is
therefore harmless. After coming to New
York, the journalist, dining with the edito,
ofthe Tribune inquired his opinion of Sew,

the reply, ito govern his country. No

trouble with Seward is that he is an infer
