MORE OF THAT "LIBERAL WAvE.-Hon. A
G. Iebroke, of Foxcroft, a gentleman not
wholly unknown in the political history of the
Site, undertook to tell an audience of about
100 persons at Congress Hall last evening
s'what he knew about the corruption and fail
ures of the Administration" He repeated the
old and exploded stories which have already
been worn threadbare in the present canvass,
praised and endorsed Greeley's cowardly and
preposterous proposition of paying 1000, 900
for the slaves of the South, and INDUCED in the
usual fulsome eulogy of tho Sage of Chappa-
qua" "Brevet Governor Kimball appeared
upon the scene during the evening, and his
Liberal friends greeted him with considera
bic applause. Mr.. Lebroke particularly re-
quested the reporters not to call the meeting
''fizzle or a failure" as it was entirely unpro
meditated and unannounced. Albeit flaming
posters were conspicuously displayed over thu
city during the day, but then we wouldn't bt
hard on our Liberal champion" believing
that his high-sounding rhetoric will have bu
little ii any effect upon the honest voters Of the
Dirigo State
Mr. Lebroke's last appearance con any stage
IN THIS city was as champion of the Hichbori
movement to defeat Governor Chamberlain il
1869. He belongs to that class of Liberals
who thought Governor Chamberlain so wicked
ly liberal that it was their duty to defea
him by bolt; so it seems that this gentleman
as well as many of his confseres in this 'Iiber
ar' business are not new to boiling.
