"True. I talk Of dreams,
which are the children OF an idle brain,
BetOt UfnOthins but vain fantasy"

Our vigorous and polite neighbor for his
'.lea,lcr" this week relates dream which
he has had awake. Had ii been of his
grandmother we might have concluded
that mince pie hal taken effect in his gas
trio regions; but it came
''In shape no bigger than an agatc-stone
Gu the oTednger Of an alderman,
Drawn with team Or little atomies
Athwart mems noses As they lie asleep"
Wouldn't Il be- rs well to deal with the
situation of the country rs though 1t were
reality2 The remedies TO be applied for
missortunes must be less insubstantial
than the stuff that dreams are made of.
But our neighbor follows the same error
which, followed, has ruined hisparty-tha,
Of refusing to accept the inevitable when
IL came. The war WAS something more
than dream and the attempt to destroy
the government something tangible, posi-
tive and terrible. while the effort need
ed to be met with n remedy as positive
and terrible. And il was. But the demo.
Gratis would have yielded all or compro-
miscd-dreams like the idle fancies of an
idle brain.

AUGUSTA. FEB. 90. 1870


The legislature to-day did not adjourn
in honor Of Washington, since 1t hal
danced so vigorously at the decidedly sol
emn occasion OF Mr.. Peabody's distin-
guished entrance to the State. This was
right. A 'concstenation events accord
incly" will unusually extend the session,
and time enough has already been lost.
Speaker Foster thinks there viii he an eS.
ira session needed. on account Of the de
Law in procuring the valuation Of our
wild lands. The owners Of them refuse
TO give any testimony in regard to their
value. determined TO prevent an increase
Of valuation. There is one course opened
10 the Commissioners which will be efiec-
trrl, and ID seems to be the only one
ICON" them.
10 not believe that the paper credit
g'cst viii be laid. or that the sphinx-rid-
ds Of who pulled big plum out Of the
State pie. will be unravcled. The COM
mittec mean business. and the chairman
ON the part of the house is sanguine; but
1t is too late. / venture To predict that
when that committee has done all 1t can
do, the goblin is y goblin still, and the
State will be no wiser then than they now
are. There was time when such an in
vestigation would have discovered the
criminals, but papers vital to the invcsti-
CATION. and records, have been lost besides
there is not one chance in ten thousand
that any committee will be rs sharp, cool,
cunning and experienced as the riscals
who robbed the State.
Westbrook is here in great force. and
80 much has been said in regard to the di-
vision of that town. that IL is not an inte-
resting subject. The Limington ''set-ofr"
c,.,c comes up this week, and Gen. Nc
Arthur is here rs the ardnt courier Of
more to come. About twenty citizens
of Limington doing business at Limerick,
and going to church and post-oilice there,
ask To be- set OF 10 Limerick.
The "Duke of Madawaska, though UNI
seated, still fits about the capital, 10th to
part with the body occupying it. / am
not so sure that tho sympa,hies OF ma
iority of the Republicans Of the House,
didn't "slop over" in his case. The Duke
although Democrat, lives in the present
age, and that Is saying great deal TOR
any of those fellows.
The State Superintendent oil schools is
beading all his energies to bring about u
law establishing State uniformity in
text books. believe il the most dan
gerous proposition that has been intro
duced into the legislature this session, and
fraught with great evil. With perhaps
two exceptions our entire York delegn-
ton will be u unit in both houses against
it, thereby rejecting the opinions oil our
people who have examined the PROPOSE
ton. am satisfied that 1t will DO over
whclmcd in both branches
There is n talk OF Introducing an order

UNION & JOURNAL :-Another week of legis-
latiye life has passed. Your correspondent can
report progress. but not much business of a

while other scores Of petitioners have hal lave
To withdraw. Committee business will be pref

committee on valuation, which will be ready to
report some tune in March. There is talk Of
adjourning three or four weeks while they COM

York county this week.
have not seen the Governor inside the State
House since his Inauguration; he has either
strayed or been stolen. The minority leader Of
the house attempted to fllibuster yesterday on
the highway surveyor law. The point was FIX
ing the official year-objection, consolidation.
The railroad, fish, insurance, and schoolbook
battles are yet to be fought, but dozen other
matters may consume more time than either.
One of this class will be endowment Of Aca,le-
mics. Speeches will be long, loui and lawful.
upon each topic. But after the smoke has
lihej, it is to be hoped that nobody will be
found harmed.
The valuation committee are outside the leg
stature, but intimately connected withit. II Is
no light labor to equal'Ie the valuation Of towns,
for the returns Of Assessors are no guide. For
example, one town returns cows worth Sl5 on
the average the adjoining one inventori,s them
at $40. The valuation Of York county as re-
turned Is mere triHe greater than in 1860, but
will doubtless be increased twenty per cent or
more.
The paper credit committee are hunting for
the track ofthe quota foxes if they find II, and
do not lose the scent. you may expect long
chase and loud bsying.
Capital punishment is mp bat there Is dis
position to vote without discussion. Temperance
does not elicit much conversation yet.
