Washington special to the Chicago Tri-
bune says: u. Perham, brother of Gov Per-
ham, OF Maine, and now candidate for re-
election, IN letter to an official here says
that his brother is confident OF reelection by
small majority, but that thousands OF those
who will vote for him will vote for Greeley.
He writes further that if the State goes Re
publican by reduced majority at the coming
election, it will undoubtedly go for Greeley
by large one."
The above is from this weeks issue of the
Union Advocate, published at North Arson,
and is taken from the Boston Journal but
the Advocate carefully suppresses the con-
Guiding portion of the Journals paragraph,
which is in substance as follows: "We are
authorized by Mr.. Perham to State that the
telegram to he Tribune is without the least
shadow of TRUTH no such letter was ever
written and no such opinion ever minated"
A cause is indeed desperate when its advo-
Gates resort to such measures as the above.

Lightning rod men have been in this city
operating. We trust that our citizens have
been cautious in purchasing, as there are
many swindlers in the business. a New
York paper shows up the manner of operating
by swindler of this class. One of the ras-
Gals goes through the country with hand
some wagon, with material for putting up
lightning rods, and makes the verbal arrange
ments for jobs, telling the contracting parties
that the cost will be very trfing. He then
departs, leaving some Of his confederates to
do the work, and when the job is finished
they charge hundred and fifty or two hun
dred dollars, instead of twenty five or thirty,
and when the victims demur they threaten to
sue for it, In most cases the eXtortion is
submitted to rather than incur the expenses of
a lawsuit, and the scoundrels continue their
tour.

md listened to a sound and high toned speech
rom Mr.. Blaine, for about an hour and a
lali. 1t was freely conceded that the posi-.
tons taken and points made by the speaker
sere unanswerabe. His arraignment of
Horace Greeley before jury of twelve dem
'crats, was lengthy and logically made, and
he We dict that they will render next Monday
week will doubtless be guilty" according to
The law and evidence. Mr.. Foster is an elo.
quent and stirring speaker, young man, but
aill make his mark and be heard from in
places OF high honor. The South China Brass
Sand furnished excellent music They came
INTO the village in a large wagon drawn by
;our horses, displaying a large and beautiful
lag, having upon it the names of the candi-
ates and the expressive motto "We go for
he man who whaled, instead of the man, who
,ailed JEFF Davis" Their advent was hailed
with three hearty cheers.
China republicans propose to rally round

Union as they ever have done. Liberalism

given this fall.
