CONGRESSMAN FROM THE FIRST DIS
0 rRIcT.-The New York Tribune has the fol-
lowing notice of the political situation in this
district:
The Union and journal Biddeford, Maine)
has a leader on the selection of Representa-
tive in Congress from that 1.-THE 1st) district,
whereof the drift is claim that he must be a
resident of York County, not of Cumberland,
1t says:
1T is not now a question whether Mr..
Lynch has wisely or unwisely administered
his Office. Nor is it a question whether the
nomination belongs now to York by every mo-
tive of justice, self-respect and agreement
Here are two of the Oldest, largest and richest
counties in the State embraced in our district.
1t it is not according to the right, and Justice,
and policy, that the candidate should be
chosen from one town in the same county per-
petually as long as good man can be found
to accept the nomination, then there should be
some equitable adjustment for recognition of
otoer localities in the district. If there is an
argument now existing why York should &C.
knowledge her nonentity and her inability to
grow men capable of representing her at the
capital OF the nation that same argument will
hold good for fifty years to come The funda-
mental policy which requires officers to be in
habitants of the district from which they are
elected recognizes the question OF locality as
an important One."
The Tribune most earnestly protests against
this doctrine. 1t is steadily belittling and de-
basing Congress. We do not know by whom
that district should be represented in the next
House, and do not wish to influence the
choice to be made; but we insist that the We
rry best man who will consent to serve shall
be chosen, whether he live on one side of an
imaginary line or another. The doctrine of
the Union would have res tricted the service
OF Henry Clay Or Daniel Webster in the
House to four years, and made it dependent
on some sort OF equitable adjustment" be-
tween political bargain makers. Let us have
members chosen for their worth, not their To-
cality.

TIE LATE COMMANDER WILLIAMs.-Notic-
ing the statement lately in an exchange that
Capt. Williams was widOwer with two chill
dren, and that he was engaged to be married
again on his arrival home, and that during his
absence in Japan waters, not only his affianced
wife, but his two children had died, and the
fact had not come to his knowledge at the time
of his death, the Machias Union speaks of q
remarkable mortality in the family of Capt.
Williams. Within twelve years, it says, his
father, mother, Oldest sister and her husband
have died, also his wife, her grandfather, Mr..
A:hertOn and Mr.. Atherton's Oldest daughter,
and her husband. The husband of Capt. Will
liams' Oldest sister, who died, being Lemuel
Anterior, uncle to Capt. Williams wife. Last
of all, Capt Williams, his two children and
his affianced. Making in all eleven persons in
the two families within this short space of
time. All but the elder Mr. AthertOn and
Mr.. Williams and his wife were in the prime
OF life. Heze kiah Williams, the Oldest son was
surgeon in an Illinois regiment, and Charles
and Henry Williams WERE captains in cavalry
regiments from the same State during the war.
Whether they are all alive yet we do not know.

Political Notes.

IT is rumorel niat Gov. Chamberlain will
not make anq1 appointment of County At
torney for thi county, but will leave fireplace
to be filled temporarily by the Court, as he has
in Kennebec County.
LEWIS BARKER of Ste!son denies that he
is to be candidate for Congress from the
fourth district.
CHIEF JUSTICE Chase wrote letter to the
colored citizens of Cincinnati declining an in
vtation to help them celebrate the ratification
of the fifteenth amendment in which he ask
ed: "Wby not signalize your rejoicines in the
rights secured under the Fifteenth Amend
ment by urging upon Congress the prompt re-
moval of all political disabilities imposed upon
our fellow-citizens by the Fourteenth Amend
ment, SO that through Universal Suffrage and
Universal Amnesty, peace, goodwill and pros
perity may be established throughout the
country?"
The friends Of the President say he has no
sympathy with General Buffers plan for car
rying the annexation of San Domingo by a
joint resolution of Congress.
II is fitting that kentucky farmer should
set the most conspicuous example of irrecon-
cilable opposition to the elevation ofthe colored
man. An exchange says that farmer named
Jameson, of Cynthiana, KY, committed sui
eide recently, in indignation at the enfran-
chisement of the negroes. He declared that
he would die before negro should vote be-
side him.
The Savannah Republican comes out in ia
vor of Chase as the next Democratic candid
ate for President, and Gov. jenkins, of Geor-
gia, for Vice-President.
THE Galveston Ciuilian says the expert
ment with Chinese labor in Texas has now
been three months in operation, and from
