for the article, not only in the United States but
elsewhere, have provoked the cupdiy of the COUN =
TERFEITING TRIBE, and it has been extensive

sharpers.
The most daring counterfeit OF said article which
has been attempted, has recently to our knowl
edge. The engraved steel label bottles contain
ing the genuine bitters with its beautiful vignete
OF st. George and the Dragon, its shield containing
warning against counterieiters, and its note OF
hand for Gone cent? at the foot, signed with our
firm name, has been copied SO closely, that the
fraud can only be detected on minute inspection
The dark label is also well counterfeted, and the
wording on both the imitation and genuine are pre-
c1sely the same, the difference being simply in the
execution OF the work; that of the imitation being
somewhat coarser than the genuine. Other cOun.
terets are on the market which are in all partcu-
lars the same rs described above with the exception
of slight difference in the spelling of our name
In addition to the above, these c0unterfeiters

bottle, on which is vgnette, and otherwise printed
to resemble the general appearance of proprie-
tary US. Revenue stamp, but upon inspection

wording, appear on our genuine stamp The public

Mr.. Stickney Of the Sunrise, a member of
the Legislature of 1870, took some notes
in relation to his associates while at Auousta
and in the last number of his paper gave them
to the world. From his sketches we learn that
MrFoster is everything that can be desired both
as man and as presiding officer. Lewis
Barker is very able speaker and during the
last session gave the friends Of temperance oc-
casion to remember his services in behalf of
their cause. Mr. Baker of Augusta is the
abiest legislator in the House. Mr.. Farwell is
also an able man, though Mr.. Siickney evinces
disposition to ask embarrassing questions in
regard to his speech on the paper credits Mr..
WATSON OF Surry is especially commended,
ana IN MI. Stickney's opinion he should have
been placed on tie commission for inyestisat-
lug the paper credits. In the analysis of Mr..
Hume's character we fancy we catch glimpse
OF Mar. Stickney's prejudices, for while he beams
comtortingly on all besides, he frowns upon
the member from Cherryfield, and tells him
frankly that he is young. However, Mr. Hume

The intelligent reader of our resume of the
opinions of the press on the Governor cues
tions, published Monday, could not fail TO no
tice that two conflicting views are entertained
concerning Gen. Jerseys position on the SEN
atorial question. On the one hand il is con-
fidently asserted that he is party to coali-
ton formed by Senator Hamlin and Speaker
Blaine, having for one of its purposes the
election of the latter to the Senate upon the
expiration IF Mr.. Morrilrs term on the other
hand it is proclaimed with even more conf
dence that he will stand entirely aloof from
the Senatorial contest, and receive the nomi-
nation for Governor, if at all, without COM
hitting himself or allowing his friends to
commit him, directly or indirectly, to either
of the candidates for Congress. The Bath
Times, a journal well known to be warmly en-
listed in Mr.. Blaine's behalf, is particularly
emphatic in proclaiming Gen. Herseys sin
cere and absolute neutrality in the impend.

Hersey's views must be authoitratively settled

demand to know whether their candidate is a
neutral or partizan in the Senatorial con-
test. Plausible conjectures, shrewd guesses
and sagacious predictions will not avail, and
the friends of the Bangor candidate will do
well to clear up at the very outset every YES
tge of uncertainty on this point. The just
ness of our observations may be tested by
any one who will take the trouble to notice
what storm of apparently causeless opposi-
ton to Gen. Hersey has sprung up since he
was formally nominated by the Wing, and
since the report has gained currency that hi
is party to the Blaine coalition. From
every part of the State, on one ground an,
another, words of protest and even of denim
citation have come. So marked has been thi

has overlooked the phenomenon and yer
