AN AnlohniAN AFfEAL TO IRISHMEN,
In his speech in this city the other night
Hon. George Boutwell, called attention to the
blindness and folly of portion OF our natural
lied citizens in leaguiDg themselves with the
enemies alike of themselves and of the labor
ing classes elsewhere. On a Seymour and Blair
flag that floats in the sight of this office are the
words intending TO "catch" the ignorant and
unreffecting, Equal Taxation" The party
That raised that flag went into the campaign
eight years ago on the simple and plain issue
Hat capital should own labor and never relin-
quish that inhuman idea till if was OBLIGED to
DO SO on compulsion. 1t still adhere to a mod
lncatiou Vi the doctrine which is as nearly like
IL as Uhe new circumstances of the case admit
1t still hunts the niger" ostensibly for no
better reason than that his skin is bIacl, but
really for a.still baser reason-5ecause bo 10 -

una nam more tractable and more profitable to
themselves when he is excluded from any share
IN the management of affairs of state. The
democrats OF the North cannot own or abso-
lutely control the laboring classes here. and so
under false pretences of friendship and rasneot
they do what they can toward making usa of
them for their own selfish purposes and for
subjugating the laborers of the South. The
arts that they use for this purpose are well de-
scribed in that able and patriotic paper the
Irish Republic in an article entitled "The
Niger and Poor Richard" from which we
make the following extract.
Tue whole stock in-trade of the Democratic
spouters Is the Niger" Go into any Demo-
cratic meeting, and it is the most strpd con-

AT the Fifth District Republican Conven-
ton in Ellsworth on Wednesday, Mr.. Pike
made speech in which he withdrew as can
didate for the nomination. The first ballot re-
suited $50 votes for Eugene Hale and 80 for w.
III. McGilvery Of Searsport and Hale's nomin-
alton was made unanimous, after which he ad-
dressed the Convention. Resolutions were
adopted endorsing the Republican nominees
and platform, State and National.
The Biddeford Union says that 90 Pshaw!
was the milder exclamation of the few of the
Democratic party whose sense of deeency re-
strained them from using the more energetic
expression of Cambronne (Which Hugo seeks
t. immortalize in Les Miserables) when inform
ed who had received the nomination for Con-
gress in their Convention in that city Tuesday
The Union says that last Sunday Augustine
Haines and several men and women of the
Copperhead persuasion left the church during
the services because Biddeford clergyman
spoke of the iniquity of letting JEFF Davis go
UNPUBLISHED. AS MIR. Haines went out he ex-
claimed OUT" And he ought to go unpunished!'
He is the same individual who said last week in
apublic speech: These carpet-baggers (mean-
ing Northern men who had taken up residence
in the Southern States) are bred of lice and
nursed by niggers" The Democrats of Bdde-
ford seem determined to disgrace themselves
and the State. 1t will be remembered that a
short time ago they treated with the grossest
indgnity the Rev. Crammond, Kennedy,
scholarly and accomplished gentleman who
visited the city for the purpose OF raising
funds for the education merely of the Southern
people.
The Democrats at Kendall's Mills are in
fix. They have Seymour flag and can't find
two Seymour opposite premises to hang it ON.
They might to have thought of that before
spending their money
One of the most interesting circumstances
attending the great Republican meeting in
Bath on Thursday night was the fact THAI
General f. ID. Sewall, who has always hereto
fore been Democrat, presided.
The editor of the Skowhegan Reporter is af
ter the p l.. LIS with a sharp stick. He says
the Democratic wire-pulers endeavoring
to resuscitate that defunct society. He adds:
"Now its rally cry is not sSumptuary laws and
a fellows right to eat and particularly drink
what be pleases, but equal taxation and one
currency'-Yes, gentlemen take issue with
Congress that they have taxed whiskey over
fifty cents gallon as luxury, and have not
taxed -four, meat and the commoner clothing.
It's unequal, and with some of you, exceeding
ly so-in the same proportion as your whiskey
bill is greater than your bread and butter

enthusiasm. He has consented to speak sew
