l. That the people will staad by the Re
p, blican party, until what they fought for in
the war of the Rebellion is secured beyond
d niger OF loss. When the country accepts III
good faith the amendments to the con-
ST tuition and the essential features OF

sectional questions be forever put 10 rest,
then will the mission of the Republican party

public questions that will arise.
2. That the Democratic party of the
,untry will not accept at the next Prestden-
tilI election what has been called the New
Departure. The tone of the Southern and
Western press, and the expressions of repre-.
sentative Democrats in all parts of the coun-
try, make 1t certain that this position will
not be adopted by the national Democracy. al

the Rebels.
3. The increase of the Republican MAORI
ty in this State was owing largely, if not ex
clIsively, to the fact that the "New Depar'
tire" so called, as adopted by the State Con

c unity conventions, and was understood Il

1t is however not improbable that if it Ia,

There are men, and not few, who were S

To the Editor Of the Press
The election passed of very quietly here
yesterday, there being less excitement than
there was exhibited in the Republican caucus
Saturday. The issue between the two parties
beaded by the two candidates, is that of rail-
road extension, which was agitated SO violent
ly here one year ago. . The Democrats entered
the Republican caucus and endeayored to
pack it, and thus secure the election of the
candidate favorable to them. Being unsuc-
cessiul in this attempt. they secured the aid OF
this disaffected faction of the Republican party
and thought by this means to run in" their
candidate. But they were again doomed to
disappointment The loyal Republicans stood
by their man and elected Mr.. Frederick c.
Ferklns as their representative. In order to
prevent Mr.. Perkins election the Democrats
made use of the highly honorable means of
having quantity of straight Republican tick
cts issued with Mr.. Perkins name as Freoer-
lick G. This caused not little confusion and
party loss. When party makes use of such
means to forward its interests, as the Demo-
Gratis of this town have made use of this year,
[ should think the honesty,e the party would
be called into question. But we learned long
ago not to look for honesty in the Democratic
party

AstOnished I.

No State election within our recollection,
more astonished people than the one that has
Just occurred. How many times has Mr. c.

lief that he would be elected Governor of
Maine on the 18th of September, 1871 His
large self esteem went far to encourage this
singular idea of his fertile brain. So he dwelt
her baby.
Well, the election has come and gone, and
the astonishment IS mutual! With lone more
than Mr.. Kimball himself! He has proved a
true prophet. Gentlemen, you will be aston
ished, was as accurate as scripture But the
Jump" that Mr.. K. gave when the over
whelming fact pressed upon his way-worn and
fainling system on Monday evening, that Gov.
Perbam would be elected by at least 10, COO
has never been equalled since that galvanic
shoca administered to himself by a Persian
coDiurer, which knocked him into the middle
