THE NEW LETTER Box FOR HOUSES.
OFFICES, Self our newspaper publishers
will but insist upon their papers being lodged
in the new letter boxes, which are soon going
up at our houses and offices, and other places
of business, there will be no longer any fear of
newspaper thieves, and, of course, no more
complaints of unfaithfulness in the carrier
boys, to be followed of course, by great saw
ing to publishers in their expenditures, and to
the poor boys in character, since they are liza
Bile to be suspected, or dismissed, where com
plants are frequent.
Add to this, that in wet windy or snowy
weather, our papers will reach us, not only
with certainty, but in the best possible condi-
ton, provided the boys are directed to fold
the N neatly and put them into the boxes, in
steal of attaching them with a twist to the
door handle, or throwing them round loose for
the wind to blow away, or the rain and snow
to spoil.
Nor is the saving to our letter carriers, in
time and convenience, matter of small con-
sideration. Instead of waiting for the door to
be opened, all they have to do is to touch the
bell or give knock or two and slip the paper
or letter into the box, which locks itself, or at
any rate secures the contents without the use
of lock or key.

THE EoNs VS.. THE ANDRoscoGGINs.-A
match game of Base Ball, the second of the
home and home series, was played between the
Eons of this city and the Androscogeins of
Lewiston, Saturday afternoon, on the ground
of the latter Club, resulting in victory for
the Androscoggins by a score of 81 to A. The
Eons were able to bring out only five first nine
men, Broughton, Williams, Woodman and
McAllister being absent, and their places filled
by second nine men, some of whom have not
played match this year. The grounds of the
Lewiston Club are very uneven, and operate
much TO the disadvantage of club not accus-
toned to them. The game was called at the
end OF the 9Th innings on account of darkness.
The third game will be played on neutral
grounds, and it is hoped that the Eons will
turn out full team, and the result will be
somewhat different.

Those who filed the nation with wild

The men who cursed our dying heroes

Seymour and Blair
The emancipated survivors of the Lib

by the Democrats to vote with the

them!
Every boy in blue who was MANNED,
slaughtered or starved during the war
was MANNED slaughtered or starved by
those who support Seymour and Blair
1t is not the brave men who periled
their lives to put down the rebellion who
now threaten new 'revolutiol" but the
men who during the rebellion were IN
sympathy with the rebels, or were them
selves imbruing their hands in the blood
of their boys in blue.
The incomes of the widows and or
phanS who are pensioncd because their
husbands and fathers were killed by the
rebels depend upon the credit of the
Government The Democracy advocate
practical reputation, which viii destroy
this credit. The rebels would rejoice
to beggar the survivors of those whom
they starved in prison.
In 1860 the Southern fire eaters
threatened rebellion if they failed They
now threaten revelation if they succeed.
Those who murdered our sons and
brothers will vote for Seymour aEd
