morning. Its effects would have been to
bring ton to twenty thousand of the best

given to the opposition the prestige of a
cause to which success had been assured.
will venture to say that mot merely In

in ohio only, but everywhere west Of the

attention to the remarks of W. II. McCril-
lis Esq. at the flag raising in this village
last week. but we find that with two Con-
vantions to report. that our time will not
admit of it. if we had the space to spar.
We give the following notice from the

ing nominated for Congress in the 4th Dis

beat Nc. and not Peters;
FLAG RAISlNG.-rhe Democrats ofElls

tonished an American flag by throwing 1t
out with two names upon it. one of WHOM
did all he could to have the old flag sus-
pended by the stars and bars during the
last rebellion, and the other proposes to
finish up the job by organizing new one.
Mr. McCrillis of this city was one of the
speakers. In Introducing him Arno Wis
well stated that Mr.. NJ. left the Republican
party on account Of its corruption: W. beg
leave to correct Mr.. Wiswell. Mr.. NJ. left

since which time that distinguished states
man has been in search Of an appreciativc
party. He has at last foud rest in the bo-
sons of Emery, Boynton, DIR. Jordan, &c,
and his soul is undoubtedly satisfied. We
don't suppose he recited the same speech
at Ellsworth that he delivered in Norom5e-
ga Hall the Saturday evening before the
Bangor Democrat office was thrown into
the street. Probably that speech would
not have been exactly satisfactory to a
Democratic audience.

The noble objects for which this party

but will meet the new forms OF issue with
the same sincere and steady view.
Believing that its main policy is right.

perity the Nation it delivered from peril,
deem myself honored in being called to
further service in this cause.
In accepting the nomination of the party
am pledged thereby to no par,izanship.

liberty. Very respectfully,

for paying its mustered out troops. let him

that it had cost the Government one hun

from their movements it was certain they
meant mischief. After Gen. Grant had
thanked the people for their welcome.
Gen. Sherman was called for and appear

plans of the rebels were developed. A
man named E. o, Hays, having been filled

preciate any spirit of respect, but neither
he nor myself are to be disconnected by any
large crowd. We are used TO large crowds
aud we cannot be Disconnected. General
Grant has declined to make speech. and
and tn nix occupying the position he does

Here some ono called on three cheers
for Seymour. and the cheers of the ruffians
and the groans of the loyal people inter

Sherman said: ''Gentlemen, l do not in
