HOW THEY ARE LtGARDED IN MAINE.
The people of Maine naturally resent with in
dignation Greeley's assertion, reiterated in the
TriIune, that they were bribed in the recent
election. The Portland Press says: at is
dsgraceful and degrading for man who is en-
ineut enough to be prominent candidate for
the Presidency to repeat for political effect such

distance OF his auditors frJm the place thus Will
fed, and their constant want Of familiarity with

his accusations anscrupulously, knowing that
the larger body OF his hearers will never see the
Tefutation Of them. This is a style of warfare
