THE Boston Journals efficient and wide
awake correspondent "Sdney," thus discourses
concerning Maine politics:
The political movements in this (First) Con-
gressional District are as yet somewhat indef-
mite. Hon. John Lynch of Portland, who has
had the office for nearly four terms, signifies
his intention to positively retire. Thus York
county will practically be left to agree upon the
coming man, although this (Cumberland) coun-
ty must necessarily give its due share of coop
Grafton. There have been several candidates
named Tor the position, but the contest at pres
ent seems narrowed down between Col. Mark
Il. Wentworth of Kittery Col Jas M Stone
of Kennebunk and Hon. E. III. Banks of Bid
deford, all good and true men," Undoubted-
ly before the Convention they will mostly unite
upon some one, possibly gentleman not yet
prominently named, and thus harmonic and
strengthen the forces for the coming fioht.
Cumberland county does not seek nor claim the
honor after having Mr.. Lynch for four terrns
and would only be given the nomination again
in case York county should tender it, failing TO
agree itself upon the candidate.
For one of the electors at large, Hon. Sam'l
e. Spring of Portland, is extensively named,
and Is one of the best men that could be nomi-
nated-whole-sou true and popular. If Mr..
Spring should be selected, then 1t IS SAID that
MIR. James III. McMullin of Biddeford, will be
likely to receive the nomination for dictatorship
for this tFirst) District-an excellent selec-
ton.
The disposition throughout the whole district
seems to be to harmonic all the discordant ell
ements and prepare for the grand battles OF
September and November, coming up to the
work with "a strong pull a long pull and
pull altogether"

Col. FoRNEY of the Philadelphia Press in a
recent conversation with representative of the
New York Herald said: I'LL
/ cannot doubt that the people will re-elect
General Grant When think of the oblga-
ton we are under to him, what he did in the
war, how he has managed affairs in peace what
a splendid position he gave up at the wish of
the people to accept the Presidency cannot
believe the country will be SO ungrateful as not
to acknowledge his great services by re-electing
him. When we get him before the country
again the ranks will close up solid for him. We
like him here He comes here and stays with
us, is interested in us. The laboring people
like him, the soldiers are a unit for him. and
am confident of his triumphant reelection
has been done with the debt, the general pros
perity of the country, our foreign policy and
all-the old story, you know. Let me walk here
among my acquaintance and cannot find fif-
ty anti-Grant Republicans, while L can find 500
Democrats who will vote for Grant He is
the representative of stability, and that is what
the great interests of the the countryside mer-
chants and bankers and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
He has made mstakes-all men do; Washing
ton did-but the people know they can trust
him. You will learn before you are as old as
am that sorehead is a man the world cares
very little about He makes much noise and
fuss, but when the hour for business comes he
will be of no account. So the clamor against
Grant now is only pounding on gongs and call
ing it thunder. When we take the field again.
the opposition of Republicans will dwindle to
corporaPs guard, and Pennsylvania, however
she may resent this unfortunate nomination,
will stand firmly by Grant. Be sure of that.

the ring was returned to her by young man,

termined to keep it. The matter weighed heav-

wear the ring, and for long time dared not re-

that she could bear it no longer, she related the
whole circumstances to the gentleman who
