KING WILLIAM is reported to have been shot
at again; but the report lacks the contirma-
ton of despatch from the King himself on
the subject, and so we don't believe it. It is
remarkable fact that, excepting the HERALD
correspondents, the only reporter Of the great
events Of this war in FRANCE who has proved
to be entirely reliable is pious old King Will
liam, and matter so important as a provi-
Dental escape from treacherons Bavarian
he would hardly withhold from the Queen.
The report in question, then, may be dis
missed as q silly fabrication.

appearance, to Mr.. Gladstone's philosophical
and fiscal and ecclesiastical benevolence of
hell or bedlam having broken loose all round.
So he, whose duty it is to guide, control and
plan for the country, was fain to pronounce
himself 'spained, astonished and bewildered."
Why, this is not SO great or so statesmanlike
as the famous me asures Of the late lamented
Mrs. Darlington. That energetic old lady,
invaded by the Atlantic Ocean, did at least
seize her familiar mop and do her utmost. But
Mr.. Gladstone's mind, according to his own
showing, has broken down altogether.
So, again, at the Lord Mayors dinner, on the
9th of this month, this great statesman, speak
lag of the war, gave utterance to nonsense SO
rank as to show only too plainly how made
ouate are his faculties to deal with the great
events acitating Europe and the greater events,
perhaps, impending. "This war;" he said,
s.has presspted to our view military catas-
trophies Of Character so transcending all
former examples that mystery surrounds
them which no one ~ yet has been able TO
penetrate" For solemn absurdity Of the
Pedagogue- Prig- Pecksnifian orCer commend
us to this sentence! s'Transcendan: catas-
trophies presented to the view!" Surround
ing mysteries which none can penetrated
These things surely read like extracts from
Mr.. Fisk's playbills rather THAI the respon-
sible utterances Of a British statesman. Flatu-
lent and dangerous nonsense! There has
been no mystery" at al! in those mQme!ntous

cere sympathy for our cause during the late
war. If the Cabinet Of st. Petersburg had
followed the seductive advice Of the Emperor
Napoleon, in order to bring about formida bic
coalition against this country, the South might
have been able to constitute herself into an
independent State. 1t is q notorious fact that
the Emperor Alexander repealed these insidi-
most critical moment Of our struggle he sent
| feet into our waters in order to attest, by the
presence Of the imperial flag, the sympathies of
his government for the people Of this couatry.
| But, say Machiavelli and his followers,
gratitude should not be the line of conduct in
political actions. We believe that this doc
trine is as false as it is hackneyed. Gratitude
in public and private life is not only virtue,
but matter of sound policy and States, as
well as individuals, acquire credit if they stick
to their friends. A firm in Wall street would
bring disgrace upon itself If, in critical mo-
ment, it should desert it's business friends.
Does not the moral of this also apply
to the firm of Grant &c Company IN
their political relations to the firm of
Alexander Il Go. at the present crisis Of af-
fairs? We do net think England will declare
war against Russia without the assistance ola
Continental Power. The author Of an article
in the last number Of the E1,nbnrg Rs0sew-

THE STATE FAIR.

The State Fair, which closed last night
after term of four days of uninterrupted
pleasant weather, has been one of the
most successful ever held in the State.
The only thing to regret is the sad catas-
trophe which occurred on Thursday after
noon, which although not involving loss
of life and only serious and permanent
injury to perhaps but one person IS sui
an accident to be lamented. All the ar
engagements seem to have been excellent
and the order and system maintained
were worthy. Of praise. Everybody that
wished to see had opportunity and cour-
t.ous treatment. 1t is gratifying to know
that all parts of our State and all indus
tries were represented at the Fair, both
by contributions to the exhibition and per-
sonal attendance. We saw familiar faces
from Aroostook and York and all the in
tervenieg counties, and in such numbers
that there was no reason to complain of
lack of attendance. The officers of the
Society are deserving of much credit for
the success which has attended the Fair.
We trust the exhibitors will not be with
out reward for their labor and enter
prise. The amount of good which will go
out from such an exhibition is incalcula-
BILE. Thousands of farmers and mechan-
les have returned to their homes with new
and valuable ideas, and will go about
their labor or business more intelligently
and with life and energy not felt before.
With better soil than any other New
England State, Maine needs only to en-
courage home industries, occupy the
water privileges, invite capital to invest
here, in order to have our farms improved
and made profitable, and our agriculture
lead New England. Farming and manu-
featuring 60 hand in hand in our State.
The spinner, weaver and machinist must
be fed and the farmer is the person to do

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

The following communication which
We find in the New York Evening
Post, we publish without comment, leav-
ing Governor Chamberlain's friends to
explain it if they wish.
PORTLAND. Me-, September IA, 1870.
To the Editors of the Evening Post:
The election is over, and the Republicans
have carried the State by q majority quite as
large all things considered, as could have been
nationally expected. The real interest of the
campaign was not in the gubernatorial con-
test, but in the struggle for the United States
Senatorship.
The lines are well drawn between the
present incumbent Senator Morrill,, and the
present Governor, General Chamberlain. A
large number of representatives to the legis-
lature have been chosen on this special issue,
and the supporters of Governor Chamberlain
have the unaoubted sympathy, as they will
have, if necessary, the undivided support OF
the democratic members-of whom a much
larger number than usual are returned.
The movement for Chamberlain is quite in.
dependent of party, and will not be subjected
to the rules of political rings and partisan
caucuses. If majority of the legislature
including the democrats, prefer Chamberlain
they will elect him.
The issues between Senator Morrill, ant
Governor Chamberlain are sharp and distinct
especially on matters of revenue and tariff
Senator Morrill, belongs to the old school VIII
believe in protection, and who pertinaciousl
oppose what the enlightened progress of tn
day demands for us in New England a reel
procity treaty with the British Provinces
Governor Chamberlain On the other hand
welded to the progressive ideas of revenu
reform; is devoted to freedom of trade, an
believes with all his heart in removing the bal
riers between us and the provinces by re-es
tablishing reciprocity treaty.
The issue on this point is marked and sig
nificant between Senator Morrill, and Govern
or Chamberlain, and predict that reciprocit
and freedom of trade will have a glorious vic
tory by the election Of the latter to the Senat
of the United States.
We feelexceedingly grateful to the EvESIs
Posr for its warm espousal Of Governc
Chamberlain's cause, and we will promise o
our part to leave no stone unturned to secur
his election.

The Boston Advertiser mentions edito-
rally the Universalist centenary conven-
ton at Gloucester as follows:
The sight at CLIQUE ester this week, where
thousands of those Who profess the faith
which Murray came to teach are gathered, is
one in which all Christians may well be in
terested. Differ as men may as to the truth
or heresy of the particular doctrines which
are the basis of the gathering, it is present
example of the growth which denomination
may make in comparatively short time by
dint of diligent work. At the same time the
condition of the denomination day is as
good an answer as it could desire to one of
the seyerest criticisms that have ever been
made upon 4 it. II Universaliam be true, it
has been said, there is no need of any re-
ligion at all, and as the doctrine spreads, the
outward practice of religious duties at least
will decrease. But, on the other hand, the
facts remain that as the denomination gains
power and numbers it is among the most
active in building churches, establishing
schools, founding papers to inculcate its
specific doctrines, ard, *. tact, in all the
works OF a progressive Christian church.
The Gloucester meeting marks an era in its
history. The one hundredth anniversary of
the foundation of the denomination in this
~
o very large sum Of money by the voluntary
contributions of its members, its position as
one of the important systems Of belief is re-
cognized, its day of small things is.past. If
its opportunities are wisely used it has fu-
ture before it of growth and prosperity, many
fold more brilliant than has been its increase
durias the first century just closed.
