IT is we'll to note the fact thus early in the
season that the Democratic members of Con-
eress are voting steadily in favor of every ex-
travagant scheme that comes before that body.
They voted for the 10 per cent. increase of pay
OF government clerks; they favor the Pacific
railroad subsidy schemes; they introduce bills
for increase of the salary of the President and
other public officers and they most bitterly de-
nounce Mr.. Washburne of Illinois, for his re-
trenchment measures, and Mr.. Ella for his fer
reting out the corruption of the Interior De-
partment These things will rise in Judgment
against them some day. n1r iffe T-ag,,rA = q

now practicing as an attorney in Belfast, 1853
to 1856: Anson P. Morrill,, 1866 to 1856; Han
nihai Hamlin, 1857; Joseph Williams, who
now attends to the management of his large
estate in Augusta, acting Governor, 1857 to

Ex-Gov. HUBBARD.-The Lewiston Journal
generally very correct, falls into the same Ell
ror that the Advertiser did, in relation to the
election Of Gov. Hubbard for third term.-
Gov. Hubbard was elected twice by the people
in 1849 and 1850. Although elected in Sep
tembers his term of Office did not commences
until the next May, the constitution having
been amended in 1S45 changing the time Of
holding the sessions of the Legislature to May,
and also changing the tenure of the Office Of
Governor from January to the second We'd
nesday IN May, at which time the political
year commenced. ssaaa 1sd hlA d
At the election in 1850 the constitution was
changed back to the original form and the
Governor and other State officers who were
elected in Sept. 1850, for the political yeat
commencing on the second Wednesday of Nav
1851 and ending the second Wednesday Of May
1852 were authorized to hold over to the first
Wednesday of January 1853, Consequently
in 1851 there was no State election. In 1859
as we stated on Monday, there was no choice
of Governor by the people, and Mr.. Crosby
was elected by the Senate. In 1853 Governor
Hubbard was not candidate, the Democratic
candidate being Albert Piisbury, Esq. There
was again no choice by the people and Gov.
Crosby was reelected by the Legislature. Hs
