PEAK g IsLAND.-The Argus assures the in
habitants of Peaks Island, that when Dem
ocratic administration comes into power in
this city they shall have a new school house
and new street at once. That is liberal.
When the sky falls, too, we shall all catch
larks. But we hope the Peaks Island people
will not wait for either of these rather unlike
ly accidents, to secure advantages which they
need and to which they are entitled We are
quite sure they do not intend to place them
selves in the position in which the Argus puts
them, of threatening to vote the Democratic
ticket unless their demands are granted If
they have good case, and it seems to us they
have, they can afford to rest it on its merits
addressing their fellow-citizens on this side of
the bay as just men and not as partizans. The
question is not political; it can only be dam
aged by giving it a political complexion. We
trust the members of the city government will
not allow themselves to be prejudiced by this
1ll-advised attempt to construe the action of
the people of Peaks Island as a threat design
ed to influence their action improperly. We
are satisfied that there was no such intention,
and furthermore that the representations of
the resolutions published last week are well
founded and deserving of candid considera-
ton. ...-- -.ls.

Political Notes.

The aspirants for the Massachusetts, Sena-
torship, on the expiration of Mr. Summers
term, are Banks, Butler, Bullock and four
others.
The Mobile (Ala.) Register states that Judge
Busted, lately shot by District Attorney
Martin, has nearly recovered, and will hold
court again at an early day, even if he has to
do it at his hotel
The New Orleans Crescent says that when
the ex-rebel General JEFF. Thompson was in
Boston last summer soliciting the cooperation

A Washington dispatch says that it is not
improbable that, if the President should pub
lish reply to Gen. Grants last letter to him,
with the Endorsement of four members of the
CABINET, Lieut. Gen. Sherman may write a let

Inc story that Butler is engaged on pam

of Grant is contradicted.

THE STATE CAPrrAL.-The order instructing
the legislative committee ON public buildings
to inquire into the expediency of making
Portland the capital of the State was introduce
ed in the House by Mr. Andrews of Buckfeld.
Mr.. Bradbury of Hollis moved that the order
be tabled for discussion next Wednesday, but
on objection being made, moved reference to
the committee on public buildings. In sup
port of this motion Mr.. Bradbury said the Or
der was introduced in all seriousness. 1t APP
peared that the archives of the State are not
safe, and an appropriation is asked for an ex-
tension of the capital to protect them. If
Portland will provide suitable buildings, free
of expense to the State, he thought the propo-
sition should be at least considered. Besides,
he thought the proper location of the seat of
government would be at commercial and
railway rather than a geographical centre.
The matter was accordingly referred, and
this is probably the last we shall hear of it.
Mr.. Brickett of Augusta quietly observed that
this thing had been talked of before, which is
very true. ...f gu
The Portland daily press., 1868-02-10

SATURDAY we published the views of several
half-and-halt papers on the quarrel between
the President and General Grant. We add to-
day few paragraphs from the New York Tri-
bune, paper which has been somewhat no
torious for It's opposition to Grant: ---'l
Arguing from the circumstances we think
these conclusions are plain: a5't- r.'s
L. When Grant entered the War Office, he
was ia sympathy with Congress. Subsequent
developments show the extent of that sympa-
thy, and that the President knew it, -.
II. Grant wanted Reconstruction carried
out, and took the War Office to aid in the
work.
III. He knew there was law which made
It his duty to resign the War Office after
Stanton's restoration by the Senate.
Nv. He could not remain in the War Office
without giving the lie to his whole career.
We do not see how Gen. Grant could have
taken any other course. We do not approve
OF many things he has done. We think he
has allowed his amiability and desire for quiet
to place him too often in questionable posi-
tion, and thus to injure the cause In this last
business, however, he has shown qualities that
add to his great fame, and Justify the CONT
dence Of loyal fmen. 1t will, of course. bring
upon him the bowls and implications of the
Rebel and Copperhead, especially when melted
and suggested by the President. Mr.. johnson
has done many things to grieve the heart of
the nation. His last little game is the most
humiliating and unenviable of all.

BOSTON, Feb. g..
Tho wholesale Boot and Shoe trade for the past
week has been moderate In extent but shows an i'm
proved demand on the previous weeks of the past
month. As compared with some previous years, the
seasons trade Is backward, and buyers are feeling
their way cautiously. With the present prospect in
the Leather market, the prices of Boots and Shoes
goods seems to be ming ground daily in this mar
ket. For the most desirable goods, which are in
short supply, prices have been advanced somewhat
since the first of January; this with strong Leatl-
er market for the most part, has tendency to sus-
tain prices OF all kinds OF Boots and Shoes, and
creates quite difference in the views of buyers and
holders al the present moment as we have heretofore
remarked. This seasons goods, when taken early
will no doubt reap an advantage Of from q per
cent. over late orders The shipments of goods for
the last month have been %, III cases; during the
same month last year it was q, 1ls cases. During

Peaks Island and the Democracy.

To the Editor of the PTeSt: . r
perceive by the Argus that the inhabitants
of Peaks Island are promised, that "let a
good Democratic admi nistration come in this
spring and your streets and school houses shall
be attended to-" The Democratic party are
good iu5 making promises of what they will
do, in case the people will trust them. They
made the same promises to the islanders pre-
vious to the election in 1860, when Democrat
ic administration came into power, but how
was it carried out? The residents on Peaks
Island petitioned the Democratic city council
for street; and the city council with their
friends visited the locality and other islands in
the bay to view the proposed way, well pro-
vided with edibles and turntables and other
necessary conyeniences for laying out, or lay
ing in said street, and its numerous angles as
viewed from Little Chebeague' had such an
effect upon them that they was unable to To-
cate the same, and it remained for future
administration to lay out the street
according to the wishes OF the Inhabitants.

CALL AccEPTED.-We feel gratifed in an
nouncing that Rev. A. K. P. Small, pastor of
the Baptist Church in Bangor, has accepted
the call extended to him by the Free Street
Baptist Church and Society in this city to be-
come their pastor. he is expected to enter
upon the duties of his sacred office here about
the second week in March. The salary offered
him is $1,000 per year and house rent.
MIR. Small is one of the most able preachers
of the Baptist denomination in this State.
The Free Street Society is to be congratulated
in securing SO excellent a pastor, especially
when such strenuous efforts were made in
Boston and that vicinity, without avail, to
draw him thither.
