Usually the results of political campaign
bury all animosities and there is a temporary
EZRA of good feeling" This year is exception
o. There is now no possible advantage to be
gained from exaggeration or from gratutous
attacks, our victory being as complete and f.
nal as the most exacting could wish, yet we
are compelled to go on with our "before cleo
tion" denunciation of the Democratic party.
The means they have resorted to for the pur-
pose of diminishing the Republican majority
have been SO peculiarly wicked that there is
no forgiveness possible.
The indignation that would naturally be ex-
cited by their rehearsal is only limited by the
difficulty Of an adequate statement
They haze made use Of yfalse-pickedly false
statements in regard to financial complications
engendered By their o,on treason to neutralize
tie efforts Of the Republican party to render
treason hereafter impossible.
They have lied constantly, knowingly, will
fully and with all the wicked intents that the
most ingenious attorney ever put Into an in
dictment
They have lied in the face of refu,ation. 40
ample and CONCLUSIVE, as TO be sufficient to
falseho0ds.
Eben F. Pillsbury, the Democratic candi-
date for Governor, has addressed the people Of
many towns in the State in speeches so full Of
falsehood in regard to the national debt and
taxation as to raise serious question as to
whether the infamy of his war or his peace
record is the greater.
Within week this candidate for the office OF
Governor has assured persons who listened to
him that the national debt had increased since
the war and that the tax on cotton and on
manufactures still exist.
All the reparation that the Democratic par
" can now make for putting forward such a
canoiaa'e and FIR borrowing the devices of the
arch mend to promote his interests is to die.
Let not that CHASTITY corpse stalk abroad long
er. 1t is time the weak pre,ense of hing
alive were abandoned. If there is eve, .aa;n
to be an opposition party in this State If vii,
not be the party OF Pillsbury, Emery Eu;ot
Paris, Lyman and Shaw.

PARK STREET CHURCH.-Rev. Mr.. Hewes
Pastor Of Park Street Church, gave his fare
well sermon Sunday morning, and if the
members OF this Church and Society live up
to the doctrines he gave them and practice the
preoepts he taught them in this discourse, they
will become one of the best religions societies
in the world. He took his text from that beau
tiful, simple and yet impressive epistle of Paul
to the Philippians, LIST chap. 9th verse, "Only
let your conversation be as it becometh the
gospel Of Christ; that whether come and see
you, or else be absent, may hear of your af-
fairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one
mind, striving together for the faith of the Cos
pei" The discourse was well written and de-
lvsred with much feeling and in an impressive
manner. 'a's
Mr.. Hewes has been faithful and diligent
worker in the pulpit and out OF it, and we trust
that he will be able to thrust in his sickle and
reap rich harvest from the new field to which
he has been recently called. We know he Ia
bors with much seal and industry in works of
charity and benevolence to our soldiers during
the great rebellion, for which labor Of love there
is laid up for him rich reward None of our
citizens were more active and untiring than he
was. We congratulate the people Of Salem on
their good fortune in having such worthy
citizen settle among them, and the Parish in
having such faithful and able pastor to min
lister to them. We are sorry to part with Mr..
Hewes, but what Portland loses Salem gains.
We can assure the Salem people that the pull
pit, while occupied by such clear headed and
liberal preacher as Mr.. Hewes, will not become
the nursery of superstition nor OF witchcraft.
THANKs.-The compositors and Others EN-
ployed in the Office of the Press, tender their

This lunch, along with the refreshing election

We hear many complaints in these quarters
of the incursion of feas. Perhaps the expul-
sion of CATS poodles, &C., and the importation
of the Mexican dog, might remedy the evil.
