In its endeavor to save itself from the
infamy of defending the Tammauv rob-
bers, in which it did not succeed as wit
ness its confession in the last number, the
Maine Standard utterly forgot the terrible
charge which it made against Governor
Perham of having appointed two addi-
tional staff officers. with foreign titles for
the celebration of the opening of the Eu-
ropean and North American Railroad.
Having been driven from the offensive to
the defensive, and then to a confession of
its inability to make the shadow of de-
fence, it seeks TO cover its retreat by
display of insolence and blackguardism as
weak as it is contemplate. We are not
surprised that leading democrats in Au-
gusta assure us that they have no respect
for the Standard, and consider it destitute
of ability as well as decency.

The news from Mexico is of the same
old tenor. The country is full OF revolu-

government by various parties. Juarez
has been able thus far to control the ele-

can keep up incessant fighting and pillag-

The Sprague brothers-Senator William
and Colonel Amasa-are probably the
largest cotton mill owners in the world
1t was the ambition of their grandfather,
who built the first cotton mill in Provi-
dence, to run 100 looms, and at his death
60 were in operation. The present firm
runs 5000 looms, manufactures 5000
pieces of cloth per day, and print $500.
The largest individual mill in the United
States belongs to them, and is located at
Baltic, is 964 feet long, five stories high,
and contains 600 looms, and runs 1000
spindles. They own two mills at Quid-
neck, r. L., of $4,000 spindles; at Arctic,
one mill of $4,000 spindles at Central
Falls, four mills of $4,000 spndles, con-
stituting the United States Flax Mill and
at Augusta in this State, two mills of 80,
600 spindles.

Some of the Savings Banks in New
York came very neaf going to destruction
by reason of the close intimacy with
Tweed & Co. The prospect is that they
will survive the shock, but the occurrence
teaches that evil communications are dan

1t is reported from Versailles that the
Alabama Claims Commission will meet at
Geneva on the 18th of December. 1t is
also said that the session will continue
during the winter, and about five hundred
cases be presented for arbitration. So
there is fair prospect that this Troublesome
business will have an end some time.

of his returning north until warmer wealth

FRIDAY MORNING. Nov. "a, 1871.
THE RUSSIAN DUKE.


The Grand Duke Alexis will find as he
travels over our country evidences OF
strong respect for the government when
he represents Yet the genius and spirit
of the two countries are entirely opposite
Russia is aristoaratic the United States
democratic. The one seeks to establish
firmly the rule OF The few, the other Is as
decidedly in favor of the many. Russia
keeps the masses down to subserve the
ruling power, the United States lifts them
ND and makes them sovereign. Here the
neople control. there the will Of one man
is the law of the nation. Between TWO
Governments thus unlike the existence OF
friendship depends upon circumstances
outside of and in spite Of the Inevitable
antagonism and repulsion of the opposing
forms of government. The Grand Duke
would make mistake were he to reckon
from what he sees and hears that the
American people approve the Russian
autocracy, and we no doubt should be as
much mistaken were we to suppose that
he is enamored or likely to be with our re-
publican laws and customs.
But it happens that in all our history
dating from the earliest period, this coun-
try has received sympathy and en-
couragement from Russia. Circumstances
have made us friends. Mutual foes to
contend with have created mutual good
will and cooperation in spite of the radi-
cal differences in forms Of government.
In the Revolution, in the war Of 1912, and
again in the late rebellion we found an
ally in Russia as far as it was prudent for
her to be. Waging war against Slavery
we had the opposition of England who
claims Wilbcrforce and boasts that slaves
cannot breathe upon her shores, and the
sympathy of Russia, then holding millions
of serfs, since emancipated. In the Girl
meas war we had no hand, no sympathy
with the selfish policy that occasioned it.
Russia felt that we had no love for her
foes in that struggle. The same hand
that had been upon our throat was at hers.
Thus a common enemy has linked Russia
and America together in friendship and
common interest.
No doubt the union of feeling thus form
ed has had beneficial effect upon both
nations. The emancipation of the serfs
of Russia was undoubtedly brought about
and fastened by the influence of this
country operating silently upon the Rus
sian government We on our part may
learn from the other the advantage of a
stable and strong government, although
we take different course to obtain it..
The Duke Alexis then has prospect of a
pleasant visit. Unlike the scions of Eng
fish royalty he will meet no unpleasant re-
minders of the past as he journeys, and
we shall have no unfriendly recollections
to conceal upon meeting him. There is
no Bunker Hill to speak of deadly con-
flict with his government. no relic of Sc
bastapol to arouse animosity. Fortunate
~ our record with Russia is one of peace
and prosperity. May our visitor carry
away with him impressions of our country
that may be felt in coming years with
good effect by the Russian people.

Two sovereigns of Lexington, KY,
were indulging in little game of draw
poker i'm a stable, the other day, when
one of them became exasperated at the
suspected perfidy of the other, and varied
the exercises by playing shovel on his
fellow-cardist's head. After having his
skull cracked and his brains laid bare, the
stricken gamester threw up his hand and
passed in his checks. The sexton then
played full of spades on him, and he

Immigration.

MESSRS. EDITORS-In tO-day's CHRONI-
Gle you ask, "Why cannot Tennessee do
something as State to divert a fair pro-
portion of emigration to this State?"
There are more than you who want to
have this question answered.
Having been the instrument in causing
the population of East Tennessee to in
crease to the number of some score or more
souls, in few months, through ordinary
correspondence with persons abroad, l feel,
in common with yourselves, a little Curl
GUS on this matter. But one thing is be-
yond oil doubt, that there are other States
which have stronger practical faith in
the superiority of their OtUn sections than
this State has in hers.
I had been in correspondence with a
company of monied men, who were in the
act of finishing their arrangements to
come with their families to settle in East
Tennessee. They had even gone so far as
| to ask me to make inquiries for their places
| OF temporary boarding, when, behold, old
Virginia had her active agents in the emf
grafton field, and these bounced upon
! one man; and, yesterday, received a
| letter from Virginia to inform me that they
had arrived thus far, and had been Undue
| ed to purchase there; and some of them
are now in the act of beginning to build
residences in that State.
One gentleman one of class OF wealthy,
educated men, came to Knoxville-D. j.
Kennedy, Esq.-and he and his company
| have also been directed to Virginia,
fear, through the same. agency.
These are facts which will help you tt
see how the matter stands. In taken thu
trouble to do what l have done in these
cases, have acted with the view of bene
fitting the parties themselves, because
know them to be the right sort of men
But, who can succeed in such things
where there are so many influences actin'
against Tennessee, and for other State
which are practically alive to their owl
real interests ?
