The New York Tribune, commenting on at
temPts at reforming the social evil in Boston,
does not believe that a human being can be-
come 80 positively desraded-womanhood or
manhood being 50 absolutely dethroned-that
all hope of regeneration, OF resuscitstion, OF
the reconstruction of character, must be dis
missed; and IL adds that much may be lost
which can never be regained in this world, be-
cause life is short and the rebuilding of char
seter 80 slow process; but society is practically
gamer from the moment any unworthy mem
Der OF it abandons his evil ways.

Our information from Maine leads us to be-
lieve that the Republican party will make con-
siderable gains in the September election upon
the standard Republican majority in the State.
Hon Sidney Perham. the ReDnblican candidate
for Governor, seems TO be supported with great
unanimity by the Republican press of the State.
Although but fifty -one years Of age, he has been
in public life nearly twenty years. In 1856 he
was Speaker of the lower branch OF the State
Legislature, and was also a member of the Thir-
tyeighth, Thirty ninth, and Fortieth Con-
crosses, in ali of which he acquitted himself
with credit. Gov. Chamberlain was elected BY
12,e24 majority, IN poll of g, rs votes.

We have already stated at some length
some of the reasons why the State Fair should
be held in this city the next autumn. The
matter comes before the City Council this af-
ternoon in tangible shape. The members
will be asked to act upon the prayer of pc
tition numerously signed by our most substan-
tial and reliable business men, who are in ia
vor of the small appropriation of $500, in or
der to secure the show here. No one can
doubt that this sum will be but a small frac-
tion of the money that will be returned to our
|citizens by way of increased trade during the
days of the Fair. 1t will naturally bring to
the city large and respectable class Of the
citizens of our State who are interested in ag-
|ricnlture and mechanic arts. Every intelli-
gent man must see that the holding of the Fair
here will help the city many ways, and there
fore we trust that the City Council to-day will
grant the small appropriation asked for.
