lates this incident:
On Saturday last the attention OF

Maine, as the leading shipbuilding State, and

disasters of the rebellion, is still loyal to the
Union and the flag, and only asks as friendly
legislation as that enjoyed by the citizens of
other commercial nations to restore her own
waste places and to assist the nation in regain
ing ruined commerce, securing thereby in
