|-By tile following from the Boston
7fareiler of the l4th inst, it will be seen
that Congress has met the expectations o
the loyal people and restored Edwin NJ
Stanton to the War Department. What
action may be mcdtated by the President
is more than probable that, through his
infinite resource of duplicity and trcachery
he will find some way of dispo,ing Of the
fearless and gallant officer. whose patriot
to his dis.oyalty. But it is certainly re-
frcshing to discover evidences of return
ing pluck and dignity on the part of the
highest legislative power Of the land. Let
Congress thus vindicate itself, AMI the
pc ,plc will no longer yield to local inter
ests. and show Indifference to the great
national issues OF the hour.
The Senate Yesterday, by a vote of IS to G,
adopted the following:
Resolved. That the Senate do not consent to
sustain the President in his suspension of l.. NJ
Stanton ~ Secretary nj War.
There l. much speculation ut W ashington as
10 the course tic iFcSlueHt VIII HOW puIsut'-
II |. believed that Gen. Grant IL ready to give
up the Office to Mr.. stanton whenever he pres
cn,s his official certificate that the causcs for
his suspension are not sustained. 1t is now
doubtful whether Mr.. Stanton will resign.
There i some reason to b,lieve that the
President will attempt to remove him. anl
send some name to the Senate for confirmation
rs his successor.
p. S.-As will b. seen by dispatch from
our special Washington correspond mt. Ne
Stanton has quietly resumed the duties OF the
Office Of Secretary Of War. Gen. Grant. Mt an
early hour in the day. retired TO the building
occupied by him rs Gen. of the Army. and
upon Mr.. Stanton's arrival at the Secretary of.

of these extensive operations. They use

are u speciality with them, they make
about three times as many as any other

symbolical representation Of the old Prim-
err, of death under the figure of man with
a scythe "cutting down all, both great and
small. has its realization, SO far as scythes
are concerned. in our State. In the South.
in the West. and in the Provinces they cut
down all. 1t IS the opinion Of some that
jeff Davis was cut loose from the bogu.
confederacy b. one of these Damascus
blades; and that they may yet sever the
cord that binds the Dominion of Canada
together. Indeed, If the South had pur-
chased a good supply Of these edge tools
they might have cut themselves loose from
these Northern States. Mr.. Dunn assured
me that they have great anxiety and watch.
ful care to manufacture the best goods and
that they are making the best tools in the
United States. You see by the above facts
that in this department. Maine is ahead OF
the nation and the world.

LECTURES on GEoLoHY.-Dr. True has de-
liyered two OF he course Of four lectures on
Geology which he is TO deliver in this town. the
first one being on Monday evening. We like
well the Doctors manner and method Of tc1ch-
ing the science, for he begins ut the beginning.
and aims to impart nil the knowledge lecturer
can suppose TO impArt, neverfo the once un'
dert aking TO show off great learning, by the use
Of the hardest scientific term e, nor III setting
forth some new and startling theory, but with
good practical common sense, and with d.
reetuess which is commendible, he aims TO tell
his hearers rs much Of the science as be can IN
the time allotted him. aud to not only impart
knowledge which has cost him thirty live years
Of study to gather, but also to impress that
knowledge on the mind Of his hearers so that
it will not be forgotten. 1t may not bs very
fattering to the vanity of our learned men and
woman to remark, what 10 doubt is true. that
they know very little of the science, practical
Nv, and therefore lecturer who commences
with the elements of the science, rather than
takes il for granted that much is known, knows
much more what audiences usually need. than
they do of his aitainmcn.s.
We will give our readers ut the conclusion OF
the lectures, Sy llabus OF the cries. The NJ
