The Biddef0rd Journal, which is afflicted
with kind of moral rabies, engendered by
the defeat of certain plans Of its proprietor
for his own political prelerment, has persist
emily stated that the Representative in Con

We have hitherto utterly ignored this state

that he would give that contradiction to tn,

OF the House, he had in custody at the bar Of
MIR. William N. Sweeney, of Kentucky.
The Speaker, pro tempore-Mr. Sweeney,

Sweeney, be excused fol having been absent

for seventeen years, and received dispatch to-
day informing him that his wife has lust be-

~ This picture, painted for Mr.. Pickard of the
naIranscrlpt by Harry Brown, may be seen at
Morrisons, and is we'll worth visit from the
many admirers of "Our own Artist"
AS portrait of the dffuse and rugged
scenery of the Bay of Fundy, we can not
speak, having never visited thaG locality, but,
apart from any geographical interest it may
nave. 1t abounds in artistic excellences, i'm
pressing the beholder, not less by its graceful
coloring and breadth of light and shade, than
the remarkable atmospheric effect produced
by the rays of sun losing themselves among
the cool msts and vapors of breaking morn
in the East.
Far surprising the glow and glare of a sun
burst is this hazy dreamy light lending lights
ness to tho precipitouS heights of the bold
shore, and softness to the waves below, which
not only frolc, but toss, as we rarely see them
on canvass.
In this picture Mr. Brown has also secured
another admirable effect in the coloring of the
foreground on the left.
With our gray rocks and lusterless leaden
skies, somber coloring harmonizes far better
than abrupt and striking contrasts, such as
may be found at any time, beneath the limpid
skies of Italy.
The GROWING merit of picture, especially a
landscape, is after all not SO much in resem-
Dlance IS in harmony of details. The man
agement OF lights and shades, the careful de-
OF the subtleness, delicacy and thought of the
subject, are essential requisites of the artist,
who net only desires to describe nature but to
adorn her.
This happy secret our friend Brown has al
ready mastered; long may he keep it, to de-
light the eyes and hearts of all lovers of the
beautiful! IL.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE MEET.NG-Our readers
have noticed that meeting for consultation
among the friends of equal rights and of the
proposed sixteenth amendment to the consti-
tuition of the United States, gi ring suffrage TO
woman, is called to meet tomorrow night at
the audience room of the public library at
City Hall. We are not sanguine that there
will be a very large attendance at the meeting,
because the number Of people having the NOR
al courage to attend such gathering is as
small tho number that had tue fortitude to
attend anti-slavery meetings in the early days
of that reform. But it is something if a move
ment can be even initiated in this State look
ing to a reform which has already made con-
siderable progress in the rest of New England
and which in some of the Western States has
been consummated. But those that do attend
the meeting tomorrow night will have at
least this consolation-that they assist at the
beginning of what is as sure to be successful
in the end, as the sun is to observe the laws
that govern its motion. All sagacious observ-
ers admit this, but very many prefer to wait
till the victory is substantially won before COM
hitting themselves to anything whose novelty
makes it for the moment ridiculous.

A RAscALLY DEED.-On Saturday night
last some young men took youth by the name
of Ring, because he refused to treat them, tied
his feet and hands together and lowered him
over the railing of behring's Bridge head fore
most until his head nearly touched the water.
He still refusing to comply with their demands
they threw him over fence near the residence
of Mr.. Plaisted on Green street, his leg be-
ing broken by The fall. Some people assisted
him home. The police went to work at once,
and yesterday morning Deputy Sterling and
officer Adams arrested two of the rascals at a
house in Cape Elizabeth, near the Brewery,
where they had concealed themselves under a
bed. Their names were James Marsh and
Thomas Attrick Officer Hall arrested another
of the party, named Leaird, at Morrll's Cor
ner on the train, by which he was endeavoring
to escape to his home in Gardiner, and officer
Rich arrested fourth named William Stew
art. Great credit is due to the police for their
in securing the scoundrels, and
Judge Morris will probably give them an OPP
portunity to repent of their sins.

An American recently from Mexico states
that it is charged against Juarez in Mexico, by
his enemies and friends alike, that secret
treaty has been made between the United
States and Juarez for the sale of Sonora, Du-
range, chihuahua and Sinoloa to the former;
that the treaty was concluded while Seward
was in the City of Mexico last winter; that
when Juarez presented the treaty for ratifica-
ton or approval to the Mexican Congress, that
body refused to sign the same, whereupon the
late revolution broke out, which has been put
down by Juarez, who has thus carried the
treaty by successful war.
