The sessions of the Conservative Soldiers

TESTIMONIALS TO DISCHARGED SOLDIERS
The testimonial to Maine soldiers voted by the
last legislature is thus described
The testimonial has been beautifully engrav-
ed by the American Bank Note Company
An illustrated border eucloses portraits at the
top and sides of Governor Chamberlain, Cen
eral Grant and Admiral Farragut, intending
to represent the civil, military and naval ser
vice. That of Governor Chamberlain is taken
from the portrait hanging in the rotunda of
the capitol, and is very accurate. At the
right and left, and just below the portrait of
the Governor, are two memorial scenes of the
war-ole representing the volunteer receiving
the parting blessing of his family as he hastens
to join his regiment, and the other represent
ing the joyous and happy scene of his return
from the war. Below the portraits of Grant
and Farragut, and on each side Of the seal of
the State, are the representations of
battle scene and q naval engagement
The text, which is stamped with an emblemat-
ic shield in green reads: You having borne
an honorable part as volunteer from the State
of Maine in the service of the United States in
suppresspg the rebellion, and thereby main
tanning the integrity OF the Union the pros
perity of Republican institutions, and the lib
critics and peace Of the people, now, therefore,
!, Joshua l.. Chamberlain, Governor and
COmmander-in-C Chief, by authority of the
legislature, present you this testimonial
to your patriotism, fidelity, and cour-
age and suffering III the common cause"
The testimonial is signed by the Governor and
dutant-General. All soldiers who will send
IN their names will hare their record which is
kept IN the AdjutantGeneraps office, examin-
ed, and is found deserving will at once receive
the testimonial. 1t will also be given to the

AN ADMIRABLE STATEMENT.-Read the fol-
lowing extract from an article on the bond
taxation question from late number of the
Springfield Republican and see if there is any
way to escape its deductions: t H7r
But, while the bill for taxing coupons pro-
vides an easy, sure and efficient way of dimin-
ishing the weight Of taxation, it may be
doubted whether it viii. in the most vulgar
sense, pay fO- the United States to pursue any
such policy. The claim that government
when borrowing money in sore peril and en-
barrassment, retains the right afterward to
withhold ten or twenty five (anl If ten then
twenty-fve) per cent ofthe interest agreed up
on, at its own discr elton, is one which, while
it may seem ali right and proper to gentlemen
of the quality of Gen Sam Cary and Gen.
Benjamin II. Butler, would if adopted, certain
ly destroy the national credit, and render it
impossible even again to secure a loan at home
or abroad. 1t has been said, too often to
need rcpitition here, that the adoption
Of any form Of repLdiatiOn, aoOuId in
Uolue the accomplishment Of session.
There is no member of the House foolish
enough-and that is saying a great deal-not
TO know that if this ten per cent bill passes,
the southern states, the Pacific states, or the
northwestern states, can march out of the
Union tomorrow, unnolested. The United
States could not raise money enough, with the
character which it would have given itself, to
maintain war six mouths against domestic
treason or foreign invasion. No one would
lend TO such government, otir bHghted credit
would invite attack, and the downfall of our
state would speedy follow, q righteous retri-
button, and signal vindicafon of the great
prOVldential laws of national life

ANOTHER OUTRAGE.-What is humanity
coming to? Have we any indication that the
world is growing better when a little girl, six
or eight years of age, cannot safely be sent to
school right in the center of the quiet, peacea-
Bile, law-abiding city of Portland? But such
seem to be the case, for we understand that
"Wednesday, as the children Were at play, on
the playground of the Park street school
house, an unknown nan made his appearance
in their midst and enJiced a little girl to go
with him to the rear of the Central Church,
pretending that he had some canary birds to
show her. Some of the larger scholars, sus
pecting mischief, followed him. When they
made their appearance the fellow ran, and it
was found that he had attempt to commit
an infamous deed on the person of this little
girl, tearing her clothes and brusing her Con-
sderably. An alarm was given and number
OF. the neiehbors attempted to follow the rascal
and secure him, but he had got the start of
them. The affair created intense excitement.
We understand that the person who is sus-
pected to have committed this outrage has
been arrested.
IT was Mr.. Pool (not Gould as was yesterday
printed) who had the vitrioi thrown in his eyes
by his wife. 1t seems that he was not living
with his wife at the time, but that she had come
to the house and demanded money of her hus-
band He told her that when the court decid-
ed what amount she should have he would pay
it over to her. She then became violent and
threw the dipper Of vitriol in his face. This
happened in the kitchen. The result of the
outrage is yet uncertain, bnt the probability is
that he will be totally blind The boarding
house keeper gives Mr.. Pool the name of hav-
ing been quiet and orderly person.
There was not single criminal case before
the Municinal Court. IL
