THE OPENING OF THE CAMPAIGN.

The radical pot in this State continues to
bubble terribly. The old guard Of the pro-
hlbitonists, under the lead of Dow, Dingley,
Nye, Hichborn, Roberts and others, declare
that they will no longer be led dumb sacri-
fees to the altar of political expedency-that
they have a principle in this business and
mean to maintain it. They are giving effect
to this resolve by choosing as delegates men
who will consent to no candidate that is not
an outspoken friend of the Maine Law and
the constabulary.
y circular issued by II. A. Shorey. Secre-
tary of the State Central Temperance Com
mittee, has got into print, urging organized
effort and accompanied by list Of thirteen
reasons why GOV. Chamberlain shall not be
re-nominated 1t is evident, we think, that
they mean business this time and in the
event Of Chamberlain's nomination will put
another candidate in the field
Meanwhile the leaders of the other wing
OF the palty,-thosc who take their regular
whisky and enjoy the spoils of office which
the temperance men help them to-are frantic
with apprehension. They beg, they entreat,
they impore the temperance men not to be
rash or precipitate. Their offices look more
and more desirable, as the probability of los
ing them becomes greater. The BLESSINGS
brighten as they take their flight"
Meanwhile, we can only watch and wait
That there is something going to happen we
feel assured-and whatever it may be we
shall keep our readers informed.

The Bangor Wing mentions the death of
Miss Sarah I. Small in that city, at the age
OF 81 years, and says her case is one for which
q parallel can hardly be found in the whole
country, for long and lingering sickness. For
forty years she has been out of health and for
lhlrty-slX bed-rldden. Atriend informs us that
thrty-six years ago she called to see her, and
she was confined TO her bedto all appearances
in the last stages of consumption, and appar-
emily with but a few weeks, at most. to live
Yet she has been lingering on, and what is
most remarkable, has been afflicted with al
most every disease, contagious or epidemic
with which our city has been afflicted. Dur
ing the prevalence Of the cholera, she was one
OF its subjects, but while others, hearty ant
robust were cut down, she, upon as it were
the very brink of the grave, lived.
