A Few OF THE RESULTS OF TUE DEFEAT OF
MACEDONIA somewhat philosophical gem
tleman in a barber shop spoke out from his
]ather, saying: "Wel1, for the life of me-
don't know how the Prussians nova such i'm
mense bodies of men, chats shust what
allied Napoleon" said the Teutonic shaver.
The Prussians had report yesterday that
King William was insane; but they have dis
covered that it is Napoleon who is going to the
asylum.
The wall of blasted Empire--"Who will
care for Louis nOw?"
One victory yet remains to King William
greater than all his others-the victory of mer-
cy.
When Napoleon's enterprise failed in 1910
he was provided with Ham for six years; but
this time he will get good German bologna.
AS showing the sleepless energy with which
the Prussian war has been carried on, it may
be stated that King William did not take his
hrst Nap until after the capitulation of the
French army.
The New York Evening Post has the follow
ing special advices from the seat of war:
Little Louis Nopoleon-"Papa I have seen
as much as wish of field and army life, and
now propose to leave your service
Big Louis Napoleon-'But why, my son, do
you leave my service?"
Little Louis Napoleon--'Because, papa,
don't like the situation" Whereupon the
young olive branch leaves-for Paris
If France accedes to Prussia's demands she
will be compelled to answer a heavy Bill.
All the German female babies this year will
be named Augusta.

boarding house and furnished Napoleon with

Both, and put a county ticket in nomination
taking the regular Republican ticket except
for two offices. j. T. Holland, of Houlton,
was nominated for County Attorney, and
George H. Smith OF the same town for County
Treasurer. The resolutions warmly endorsed
Hon. Sidney Perham, and declared prohbi

the day.

There is evidently not to be so much excite
ment as usual, but we hope no proper efforts
will be left unfinished this week for full

1t is highly necessary of itself in the present
stage Of public affairs, that the prestige o.
Maine victories should he kept up; and its
rights besides to give support to an honest
National Administration, which the opposi-
tion are striving to undermine and break

The Oxford Oracle.

Our lively Republican friend from Oxford
county, who now appears in the columns OF
the Argus occasionally, made his second ap-
pearance on Saturday. lie still retains his
good humor accompanied by large flow of
self conceit. He evidently was not "born to
blush unseen, and waste his sweetness on the
desert air. He is full OF schemes for defeat
ing the candidates for the Republican nomln-
ees in this State as the marshals of the
French army have been of strategy; and they
will both probably prove the same abortions.
His ardent wishes for the success of the
Democratic nominee for Governor, Gen. Rob-
erts, bristle out like "quills upon the fretful
porcnplne" When he reaches that mount Of
his wishes, it seems as though his small
frame if only punctured would collapse. 1t is
the ecstacy OF exaltation. When he touche:

't'.ss<.1zla an TILE -E.NEAlx-Tha-R -RAs4~-
papers of Saturday contained a despatch
from Portsmouth, saying that large number
of Republicans of York county had united in
a call for new convention to nominate a
Republican candinate for Congress in opposi-
ton to Mr.. Lynch. We have learned that the
the statement is false. An attempt of the
kind was made by few of Mr.. Lynch's enc.
mics, but it received so little favor from the
Republicans of York county thatthe scheme
was abandoned after few names were en-
rolled. As election approaches the disaffec-
tion among the Republicans OF York county
diminishes, and Mr.. Lynch will go out of
York county next Monday win a handsome
majority, which Cumberland will increase.
There is no doubt about this.

to Napoleon Bonaparte win be read with pecu.

which they apply to the circumstances of Ma.

'Tis done-but yesterday kingi
And armed with kings to strive;
And now thou art nameless thing!
So abjecl-yet alivei
Is This the man OF thousand thrones
Who strewed our earth With hostile bones
And can he thus survive?
Since he, m SCALED the Morning Star
Nor man no. fend hath fallen so far.
The triumph and the vanity.
The rapture of The strife
The earthquake voice OF Victory

Wherewith renown was rife
All quell'i J. Dark spirit! what must be
The madness OF thy memory!
The deso!ater desolatei
The victor Overthrown!
The arbiter of others fate!
A supplianl tor his own!
Is 1t some yet imperial hope
Ihat with such change can calmly cope?
Or dread of death alone?
To die a prince-Or I've slave
Thy choice is most ignoblY brave!
He who OF old would rend the oak,
D1eam'd not ol the rebound,
Chain'd by the trunk he vainly broke
Alone -how look'd he round?
Though in the steInness OF thy strength
An equal deed has done at length,
And darker fate has found:

But thou must cat thy heart away!
Thine evil deeds are writ in gore,
Nor written thus in vain
Thy trumphs tell OF tame no more;
Or deepen every stain;

Some new Napoleon might arise,
To shame the world again
But who would soar the solar height
To set in such starlesS night?
