RIPToN.-The town has been under.
going a visitation from the sons OF
Ishmael for some time past. They paid
their respects to w. Lovett, Esq. and
carried off a heavy valuable swarm Of
bees, being his last one. Also called on
DR.. Powers who missed tools to the
value of some eight dollars from his mill ;
while j. g. Preston lost a leather belt
from his saw mill worth some S45 or
$50. Mr.. Cyrus Browns barn vas en-
tered, sack of provender was cut to
pieces and the contents scattered in all
directions, a chain or two, a set OF iron
bow pins, and q staple and ring for OK
yoke stolen, and pair of harnesses
ruined by cutting. j. Gee Esq, lost
quite quantity Of corn, which was
taken from the field to the woods and
husked. And the other morning while
Mr.. Gees family was at breakfast, his
barn was entered and belt taken from
the threshing machine owned and run by
Messrs. Bean & Baker, obliging them
to 20 to Middlebury to supply the missing
article before they could proceed with
their days work.
A first class vigilance committee with
the powers of Judge Lynch, seems to be
needed very much and could find business
plenty for short time and then honest
men could rest in peace. Ripton is all
right or would be but for few lawless
characters that could be well spared to
graduate from the State College at
Windsor. u.

tunity to heavy numbering business, draws
agricultural supplies from all the surrounding
country, and by its industry has quadrupled
the real estate of its section, and supports
literally its institutions of education and re-
ligion. In the same work, your towns OF
Biddeford and Saco are also engaged.
And there is room for not one Lewiston,
one Biddeford, and one Saco alone, but many,
where agriculture and manufacture may join
hands for the enriching of this noble State.
Already has Augusta caught the impulse;
while Portland and Bath and Bangor may be-
come manufacturing towns, whose commerce
shall be the natural growth Of internal enter
prise, and not the uncertain fruit of foreign
interests, or of domestic policy brought
down to foreign standard. Can any one
doubt that under the influence Of q fixed and
reliable developing policy. her present pro-
ducts of 9, GOO, 900 bushels of oats, and 6,0OO,-
600 bushels of potatoes, and nearly ZOO, 200
tons of hay will be required for her own con-
sumption, and the now unoccupied lands may
be employed in feeding the stranger? Can
any one suppose that policy like this could
be in any way burdensome to the ship build
ing or the commerce of Maine: hear some
one deplore the silence of your ship yards,
and the stagnation of commerce in your ports
| deplore it too. But am led to inquire
steam upon the ocean, as well rs the cond-
tons of capital and labor now universal
throughout the country, are not more likely
to produce these results than the application
of any policy which would protect the great
mass of national industry. And have not
forgotten your coasting trade-''a nation 5
best trade, or certainly, our best'-as Mr..
Choate said in his elaborate argument in Con-
gress, in defense of protection. l hear some
one complain Of high prices. l complain too,
but would have these prices lessened by a
healthy process of home production, and not
by the destroying edicts of competing for
eigners. am told that in certain points our
existing tariff is unreasonable, unjust and un-
called for if so l would strike out these
points, and still if possible the unreasonable,
unjust, and uncaled for attacks upon the
American system of protecting well paid la
Dor, and of employing well paid capital.

4 WISE CONCL USION.

To the Editor Of the Journal.
We remember being present at gather
ing at Pennington Falls some fifteen years
ago, when several leading Democrats, on a
Saturday evening, commenced vigorous
canvass as to the causes of the financial en-
barrassments of the country; the high prices
Of all the necessaries of life the low prices
of labor, and the war which the North was
constantly making upon the South.
The ''nigger' had much to do with it, the
''black whelp;" the great manufacturing
monopolies," oppressed the laborer by small
wages and controlled and enhanced the prices
of everything the poor man eats, drinks, or
wears. Thus general disorder and wide
spread rascality it was avowed, was prevail
ing everywhere. One democrat, an energetic
man, but bitter partizan, declared that all
our troubles were ''traceable to the fanatical
intermeddling of the internal Free Sellers"
then just assuming organization and declaring
their principles, and that they were backed up
and indicated and encouraged by that mean
est of all newspapers, the ''Kennebec Jour
nal" This brought a Mr.. Morrill, of that
place to his feet in vindication of the Journal
which he then held in his hand and which he
had just been reading. He had been always
a thorough and determined Wing, and made
carly relations with the Republican party.
He said that he had taken the Kennebec Jour
nal more than twenty years, that he and his
family all carefully read it, and were always
edited and delighted with it, and that if he
was going to subscribe for another paper it
would be for another copy of this Old
Kennebec Journal" flourishing it in the air.
1t need hardly be said that the crowd came
down, all angry controversy ceased, and the
kennebec Journal come out winners" by
many lengths. 3.
