Tho kitSti1h In Maine.

The first State election of any impor-
tance as indicating the probable result
of the Presidential race takes place in
Maine, on the 9th instant t-to-morrow
week. The Administration party is put
ting forth every exertion to sustain
itself. Scores of the ablest Radical
speakers have been canvassing the State.
and money, it is charged, is being used
in abundance, as was done in North
Carolina. The Liberals and Democrats,
too, have not been idle, and have been
pushing the canvass vigorously. Trum-
bull, Banks and other prominent Libe-
raj Republicans are stumping the State,
and the numbers who attend and the
genuine enthusiasm which pervades
their meetings, shows that the desire for
reconciliation and reform has reached
even bleak and distant Maine. We do
not suppose that there is scarcely a
chance that the State can be rescued en-
tirely from the GRANTEES. The wonder
is that they show so much uneasiness
about it, when we remember that the
Radicals carried it in 1858 by sweep
ing majority Of 10000. The most, we
presume. TINT the Liberal Republicans
and Democrats can hope for in Maine is
reduction in the Radical majorities.
If agreat advance can be made in such
Radical stronghold. it is treaspnable to
hold that the doubtful States. which
will decide the election; WI cast their
vote for Greeley and Brown. It is this
which makes tho election in Maine inte-
resting.

GUARD THE WEAK SPoT.-All men,
however strong, have weak spot. like
the rhinooeros, which, though plated
like monitor, is vulnerable to spear
thrust below the places. Satan is not
such fool as to attack the strong de-
fences; he would be sure to thrust at the
vulnerable points. Some, indeed, think
they have no weak place; aud such peo-
pie are right; foe they are weak all over,
and no part. therefore, could be called
weak in particular. The polar bear has
a weakness, which is for blubber. and his
hunters knowing this, coil q piece of
whnlebone likea watch spring. wrap it
in blubber and freeze it. They then
drop the tempting morsel in the way of
a bear, who swallows greedily; but as
soon as the blubber melts in his eto-
mach. the whalebone springs ont. The
pear then rolls over in agony, and they
come up and kill him. Thus it is when
men yield to an easy sin, it will cut
them asunder.-Dr. Fl. III. Scudtler.

whit the Administration styles great
