has been sunk; it is in Tweeds new court house
in New York. In Washington there is another
receptacle for 1.-THE Presidents carpet-bap.
with gift houses in it, fast horses, cigars. ten
Dents and $500, 900. The President has hrouobt
the South to her knees; not in grateful adora-
ton, but III prayer for the overthrow of the Adj
mnistration. The customary charge of receiv-
ing gifts and repaying with offices was made
against the President, and Mr. Tilton summed
up his catalogue of crimes. The President has
nsurpsd the the rights given by the Great char
ter TO the States; he has invaded conventions;
Is Janus faced on civil reform; has invoked
peace and sowed dissentions; he swore to re-
spect the laws and trampled on them. An
drew johnson was impeached for his disregard
of the tenure-ofoffice law. If he was arraign-
ed for the infracture of a single law there is
seven-fold reason for Grants impeachment.
Mr. Tilton proceeded to draw a high-colored
picture of the Cincinnati Convention and its
platform, and followed with an explanation of
the alliance of the Democratic and Liberal Re-
publican parties. If it had been made earlier
it would have prevented the war.
The Cincinnati platform declares that the
franchises lost by the war shall be restored.
The alliance of parties is perfected, and the
reason why the Liberal Republican and Demo-
cratic parties are allied is because they are
brothers. Like Jacob and Esau, they have
fallen on each others neck. The South and
the North have clasped hands and are at peace.
1t is an alliance to maintain the 18th and 14th
amendments, establish universal amnesty and
make every man equal before the law. This
alliance of parties is of no mushroom growth.
1t is the elimination of series of such alli-
ances, by which the party in power will go to
its grave. In 1854 the Democratic party joined
with the Republican party and saved Kansas to
freedom. In 1860 the Democrats helped put
down the rebellion. In 1868 they responded to
the call of the Republicans and the 14th and
18th amendments became the organic law of
the land! In 1872 we can do nothing without
you men of the other party, and in November
the great principles which they profess will
triumph.
The remainder of the address was chiefly
partizan's praise of Horace Greeley's abilities
stateman.

DEATH OF PORTLAND PRINTER.-We learn
with sincere regret of the death of Mr.. Judson
: A. Russell, formerly of this city, at San Jose,
Cal, on the 9th inst. Mr.. Russell was the old
est son of the late Moses Russell, and learned
his trade in the Transcript office. A few years
ago he went to Minnesota for the recuperation
of an impaired system, and for a considerable
time was connected with the business depart
ment of the St. Paul Press. His health, which
had become almost robust in the meantime,
failed again, and he resorted to travel, visiting
California among other States. At San Jose
on Friday the final summons came, and we
have no doubt he was fully prepared to respond
to it. His disease was consumption. Mr.. Rus.

The appearance of the owner caused nasty retreat. Did the two young men think they were doing neighborly kindness by their attempt to en- danger life ? hope for the reputation of our otherwise quiet village, that they may be made an example of, should they con- tinue their depredauons...

 The two men, Ives and True, who resist. ed officer Chamberlain were brought before Chief Justice Beach last Thursday, on two seperate actions, one for resistance and one for assault and. battery. The defendants offered no testimony, but put their defence on some technical point of law. Andrews for state and McMahon for defence. The lawyers had considerable talking to do, and judging from the dignity with which Jus tice Beach listened to their arguments, the case must have been decided before it be- gan, for his eyes were closed certainly part of the time. The two were bound over under $500 bonds each, to appear, sc, &c. understand officer Chamberlain has brought action against Mir. Ives for dam- ages, laying the sum at $2OoO.

THROUGH SHAReN.-Mr. Editor: Taking 8 little drive to the quiet old town of Shar- on afew days since, had the exquisite pleasure of spending an hour in social con- verse with a lady whom have not seen in thirty-five years. I refer to Mrs. Moves, daughter of Joel Bancroft, who with a nu- merous family of seven sons and four daughters, resided in "Ore Hill district for number of years. Of this numerous family it may be truthfully said that they were very energetic and aspiring; many of them sought for fortunes in distant lands i; three brothers died at the South; of the family four only survive. two in Sharon, one in Pawling, N. r., and one in Nebras- ka. Among many on the broad and beautiful streets of Sharon seen that day, only three familiar faces came to my notice: that of Judge Sedgwick, ''the Historian; ;" the portlY, statesmanlike John Cotton and Cap tain King, who has bow to bestow upon every one whom he meets. think it is quite surprising that among the numerous items from Sharon that have appeared in the "NEws," that no mention has been made of the "gentleman milliner," MT. Boughton. Surely he needs no greater rec ommendation than to say, that his store IS literally thronged with customers, afford ing him scarcely time to eat or sleep. Some of his home customers say that his taste for making and trimming hats is unsurpass- ed in New York City. V.
