The Paper Credit Law Suit.

The first paper credit case ever brought be-
fore jury in this State has just been tried in
Wiscasset at the present session of the Supreme
Judicial Court for Lincoln county, Chief
Justice Appleton presiding, and has resulted in
verdict for the plaintiff, after hard fought
contest of five days. The suit is a most i'm
portant one, and the facts as shown by evil
dence produced are briefly as follows: Jason
M. Carleton of Whtefeld, acting for that
town, made a personal bargain with Daniel I.
Pike of Augusta, for fifteen men, in anticipa-
ton of call by the government upon that
town. When the call was made the town put
the furnishing of men up at public auction, and
a contract was made with Carleton who enter
ed into an obligation to furnish the towns
quota. He paid Pike $4,000 to furnish the if
teen men Pike furnished what is understood
to be paper or marine credits, although these
answered in filling the towns quota. The jury
decided they did not fulfill the contract which
Pike had made with Carlton, and a verdict was
rendered that he should pay back the money
and interest, which in all amounts to $5587.37.
Exceptions were taken, and a motion made to
setaside the verdict byPike's counsel. The result
will be watched with great interest throughout
the State, for should the decision of the lower
court be sustained, it may occasion wholesale
litigation over paper credits in our courts.

THE epizootic influenza divides the honor
of public discussion with the Presidential
election. Indeed the concurrence of the two
events may prove to be most inauspicious.
If the disorder should invade the country
districts during the present week as rapidly
as it did during the last, it is not improbable
that the vote would be much lighter next
Tuesday than it would otherwise be. Every
body can't walk to the ''town house, ten or
more miles through November mud or in No
vember cold. %
If the prevailing horse distemper should
prevail generally throughout the country, and
in districts now dependent on stage lines for
communication with the rest Of the world,
the building of new narrow-gauge railroads
would be greatly stimulated. Let the stage
from Bangor to Ellsworth, Machias and CAL
ais, for instance. miss its connections for a
week, and that ashore Line" would be put
under contract on almost any terms.

PROGRESS OF THE NORTHERN PACIFIC r.
R.-It is announced that by the middle of No
vember this new road will be completed to the
Missouri river, 452 miles west of Duluth. This
will be an addition Of 200 miles since spring
Trains have been running daily between Duluth
and Red River since April last, and new rolling
stock is ready to equip to the extension.
On the Pacific side in Washington territory a
small section Of Is miles has been some time in
operation. Forty miles more of track will be
completed before the close of the season. Ad-
ding the completed portion on the Pacific side
to the eastern section, it gives a total of 517
miles of track laid in little more than two
years from the commencement of work. When
thr delays encountered the first year in making
the surveys and deciding ON the best line through
the forest region, are considered the result is
marvellous, and attests the energy with which
the work is pushed forward

PREVENTATIVE OF THE EPIzooT1c.-A Que
bee correspondent of the Boston Journal says:
During my stay at Quebec it has SO happened
that have employed one mans carriages sew
eral times In going between the upper and
lower towns and about the suburbs it is the con-
slant custom to ride: well, while the disease is
noticed npon the larger proportion of horses in
the caleches. wagons and drays, | noticed that
this mans horses were not affected, and there
were eight in his stable. I several times asked
him how it was that he escaped; at length, to-
day, he told me as follows: He says that when
the disease broke out at Montreal he stopped
giving any of his horses cold water; that he
boiled it all, making a thin Cruel of whatever
grain or shorts he used, and he gave it to the
animals with not only the chill off, but partially
warmed 1t is not pretended that the disease
was cured by this treatment, for none of these
is here, they are in one stable in Quebec, and
while horses are suffering all around them
these are not; at least they have not yet been.
Here are the facts, the whole facts, and l give
them r-what they are worth.

The Right of Secession

Whenever a considerable portion oil
our Union shall deliberately resolve to go
out, we shall resist all coercive measures
to keep it in IF the Cotton States shall de-
eide that they can do better out Of the
Union than in it, we insist in letting tn n
90 in peace" "If the Slave States the
Cotton States, or the Gulf States only,
choose to form an Independent nation
they have clear moral right to do so."-
Horace Greeley IN 1860 and 1861.
The above sentiment often repeated by
Mr.. Greeley, in the past ten years, is the
last hope of the Lost Cause" Suppose
Greeley elected next November to the
Presidency, and installed the 4th of March
following with his election, will in proba-
bility come legalized rebel CehGress
Then suppose, what/would be almost Ger
tain, request from the ten late rcbe
States, for permission to peaceably secede
from the Union, and establish an Indepen
dent government. In that event, Horace
Grealey, the President and Commander-ir
Chief Of the armies and ravies Of the
United States, is solemnly pledged t.
"lct them go IN peace" And thus The
half million of precious lives, and The
four thousand millions Of dollars sacrif
ced by the Nation for its life, will be fritter
ed away, and worse than lost, in obedience
to the whins of this crutchetty deluded
old man.

| the Tribune of last September As said
on January T, 1868, every one who choos-
es to live by pugilism, or gambling, or
harlotry, with nearly every keeper Of a
tipping house, is politically Democrat.
A purely selfish interest attaches the lewd
rufianly, criminal, and dangerous classes
to the Democratic party, by the instinct
of self preservation Therefore my heart
throbs with delight at this manifestation
of-of- here HIS pen faltered with emo
ton Recovering himself he proceeded i:
You have not elected me to anything
very often. Laughter. 1t seems to me a
good deal like going home. Because as I
recently said in the Tribune, point where
you please to an election district which
you will pronoance morally rotten-given
up to dcbauchery and vice-whose voters
subsist mainly by keeping policy Offices,
gambling houses, grog shops, and darker
dens of infamy-and that district will be
found giving large majority for which
it styles itself the Democratic patty.
There you see yourselves, boys. az in a
glass. This is d most suspicious moment.

Military Ring at the White House,

Senator Carpenter, in his Matchless
reply to Senator Summers attacks on
the President, alluded to the Mill
tary Ring at the White House," and
related the following interesting cir
cumstances
When General Grant took possess
sion of the White House it was par
trolled by sentinels day and night
so was the War Department; so was
the residence of Mr.. Seward. The
first night General Grant slept. at the
Presidents House, after retiring, he
heard the tramp of soldiers in the hall
below. and presently the command,
" Halt order arms" and the crash of
muskets on the floor. The General, not
knowing what it ment, ran down stairs
to ascertain. There he found an officer
in command ola squad of soldiers !;
and on asking an explanation, the Gen
eral was informed that it was the night
guard of the Executive Mansion, which
for long time had been stationed
there every night. But General
Grant informed the officer that he
could take care Of himself, and ordered
him to take his soldiers to their quar-
tiers. He waited till his armed friends
left, then 10 cked the door and went to
bed. The next day the whole bust
ness of sentinel service was discontinue
ed, and not soldier has been on duty
at the White House since. General
Grant also ordered away from Wash
ington all the companies of soldiers
which were on duty here when he was
inaugurated and not company of
troops can now be found in or around
Washington city.

Grant or GfeeleS.

Notwithstanding the great National
Conventions have been held sad nofsln-
atoms made, the Chicago Times Is With
out candidate. 1t is of the opinion that
Grants administration tends too much to-
wards Capitalization, favors protective
tariffs, subsidies and monopoliesf and
ought not TO be continued. It however
refuses to support Mr.. Greeley and asks.
us Mr.. Greeley less dangerous man
then Mr.. Grant, in view of the. central
fixing tendency of the times Personally
he is not. Personally he as far more dan
gtrous man, in jast the proportion that an
active is more dangerous than a passive
agent. No man in the land has more
warmly and persisten.iy advocated the
paternal theory of government: II ne be
iieves in anything, it IS II, the power and
1 the right and the duty of central govern
ment to promote the general prosperity
| in a variety of ways by legislation and
with all zeal, and to the utmost Of his
ability, and with the fercest Intolerance
| of opinions differing from his own, has he
advocated the exercises of that power.
His faith in legislative orsnipotence is the
key to this strange mystery Of HIS char
acter. Holding, as he does, to the
central doctrine, every question resolves
itself in his mind into one of expediency
and hence he has been everything by
turns and nothing long, according as his
views of e&pedicrcy have changed. To-
day advocating personal freedom for the
| negro, to- morrow advocating restrictions
upon the freedom of exchange To-day
advocating peaceable secessions to-mor-
row advocating the most vindicti9e mea-
sures against those who attempted to secede
To-day pleading for amnesty tomorrow
clamoring for military government.
These wild Inconsistencies are explcable
only upen the suprositioh that the doc
trine of governmental omhipotence is the
cardinal do ,trtne in his political creed.
The doctrine being the essence Of cen
tralizantion, Mr.. Greeley is beyond all
questions a more dangerous man person
ally then General Grant, in view Of exist
ing tendencies. There would be nothing
to hope, in case Of his election, except
from the conservative influences to which
he may be subjected"
