etter from Hon. Charles r. kmbail.

From the Portsmouth, n. Il. Daily Times.
We are sure that our numerous readers
over in Maine as we'll as those in this city
and State, will be pleased at the spirit and
tone OF the letter which we are permitted
70 publish, written few days since by
Hon. Charles 2. Kimbal of Portland to
Hon. Frank Jones of this city. Aside
from the general interest that will be telt
IN the outspoken opinions of one who has
lust made so gallant and creditable fight
against the whole United States govern
ment. and who at the head of the Demo-
cratic ticket of Maine reduced the Grant
majority several thousand votes, there
are other considerations that make the
letter important.
The Portland Press and other Grant
OF cans have industriouslv circulated the
story that Mr.. kimball had decided to
retire from the political arena. The ami
mus of the Press will be apparent to all.
While it paid high compliment to the man,
and other Grant organs that repeated the
story We'd with it in eulogizing the hon
ored citizen, they hoped to convey the i'm
preston that Mr.. kimball had retired
from the field and would no longer battle
for the cause in which he has been so
Jealous, eloquent and effective Il cham
pion. But the GRANTEES of Maine need
not so t1atter themselves. His letter to
MIR. Jones is evidence that he will still
continue to wage lnComprOmlslng war
upon the men who have again beaten, but
not conquered, the indomitabe host that
twice have rallied under his leadership.
The Democracy and the Liberal Republic
cans of Maine, know that they were
