P-RoMIsCUoUs SHooTING-Between eleven
and twelve o'clock last night a party com
posed Of the two genders arrived at a mis-
understanding at the corner of Washington
and Annunciation streets, when one Of the
masculines opened a scattering fire on one
of the party, who had, it is asserted, grossly
insulted one of the ladies. Sergeant Van
kirk was near the spot, and, in attempting
TO make arrests, met with some little resist
anee and a sudden fight of the persons.
However, he succeeded in arresting three Of
the men, after which-it was discovered that
no damage had been done fur ther than VIC

Now York State Committee Men.

The iubilant outcry of the Democratic
sheets over the New York State Committee
men who have joined them is rather anus.
ing to those who know the facts. For con-
siderable time before Senator Fenton left the
Republican party and before even, he had en-
tered upon the Carmichael intrigue with the
Democrats, to make Greeley their candidate,
he had been in active hostility to Senator
Conkling and the vast majority of the Repub-
leans ofNew York. When the present State
committee was made up the Conkling men,
although in full control of the Convention,
magnanimously placed several Fenton men
upon the Committee, hoping thus to secure
more harmony. These men are dropping
out one by one by preconcerted arrangement,
with flourish of trumpets over each, and
with an assumption of voluntary action on
their part, going through the motions of
'sconverts'' with a really remarkable gravity,
considering the eminently farcical nature OF
the proceeding. They have never been any
thing more nor less than spies in the camp
and their going has no significance whatev-
er. The measure of detection is precisely the
number of these Fenton Tammany Republic
cans.
The departure of these men who have al
ways been kissing and a by word in the par
ty, may be hailed as great relief especially as
every one thus leaving is replaced by at least,
two good, sound, honest anti-Tammany
Democrats who don't propose to stultify
themselves at the bidding of the party man
ayers at Baltimore. The Empire State will
go for Grant and the Republican party there
will be infinitely purified and strengthened
by this happy interchange of bad Republicans
for good Democrats. f...L

to have remembered nothing but the speeches
of Henry Clay and Rollin C. Mallary, and in
ethics, nothing but Paley's EXpediency treat
ise So he drifted till he became, by per-
fectly natural process, what he is-by habit a
slip-shod and down-at-the heel old fogy, and
by egotism and calculation thorough be-
lever in his fitness for the presidency as for
all minor offices, and an Unsuitable seeker and
intriguer for them.
Warrington further discourscs concerning
the speeches of Conkling and Schurz: g.
They are both grand specimens of the in
vective; Conkling's the most lawyer-like and
sharp and perhaps the most readable to the
average man, and Schurz's the clearer state
ment and the best specimen OF reasoning. l
have been through the latter carefully. 1t
is in parts little old, but is wonderfully
able arraignment of the Grant administration.
1t is intensely partizan, and has the marks of
the strongest personal hostility toward the
President and his senatorial friends, and also
a determination to beat and Dust them at all
hazards. The senator has evidently made up
his mind that he must destroy or be destroyed.
He probably does not hate Grant or despise
him so intensely as Sumner does, and on the
other hand, he has unquestionably an intel
lectual contempt for Greeley, and in his in
most mind a perfect knowledge that no good
call cOIle OUT Ol MIN, Wnlle OuhneT Ids llO
such appreciation of the candidate. The
reason, then, why Schurz plunges in and
Sumner hesitates, is because the latter has
sensitive conscience, and the former little or
no conscience. Sumner also has record,
and Schurz has not; Sumner is large
part of the history of the country; Schurz
very small part, and by his espousal of
Greeleyism he is not likely to make it larger.
For it is Just as certain as anything in the
future can be, that Carl Schurz cannot make
himself great historical or useful though he
may make himself very formidable charac-
ter, by allowing himself to support man he
knows to be disgracefully corrupt, merely for
the sake of destroying q personal enemy or
removing bad administration. He probably
thinks that he shall be able to fulfil his agree
ment to be independent. But it is the first
step that costs. If when John Cochrane
called on him to announce the result of the
swindle the first of May, and when he saw
the leering face of Frank Blair on the plat
form exulting over the success of this latest
and most successful game of thimblerig in
which his corrupt family had ever been en-
gaged,-if he had left the stage and immedi-
ately organized anew, as he might, he would
have become historical and immortal. He
had not nerve nor conscience enough for
this. Now where is he? Formidable, no
doubt; but shorn of all moral strength 1t is
pitiable to see him accepting such trash, such
ineffable twaddle, as Greeley's letter on the
civil service, and deliberately setting his
subtlety at work to try and prove that it is
worth something's

on parole, confined to the limits OF the city OF
Washington. Afterwards, by the earnest So
lieitation of friends and the leniency OF the
War Department, he was allowed to return
to the service for which he had shown him
self so unworthy, and which he had done his
utmost to disgrace. g. ~
So much for the man who makes the base
insinuation of want of personal integrity
against the President of the United States.
We make this statement deliberately and with
the proof at hand to substantiate every point.
We feel it our duty to inform our citizens
what style of men the Greeley party imports
into Maine to preach ''reform'' and political
publication They have inaugurated the
system of violent personal attacks and must
take the consequences. -.-.

The Fifth District.

We print to-day the name of Mr.. Hale as our
candidate, from this Fifth District, for Con-
gress. We have hesitated so to do up to this
time, not that we had any objections to Mr.
Hale personally. We believe him to be an
able and influential Representative. He has
succeeded in securing the passage of several
bills for the advantage of various parts of the
District. The passage OF the bill allowing
drawback of duties on materials used in ship
building, was largely owing to his influence
his constituents. For this means of relief from
the burdens under which they were doing bust
ness the shipbuilders and in fact all of us in the
District, where ship-building is leading inter-
est ought to feel grateful to MIR. Hale.
Admitting this, why have we hesitated to adj
vocate the reelection of Mr.. Hale? From the
same cause that gives rise to nearly all the OPP
position to him IN this city: dissatisfaction with
local affairs.-We believe, and we think a ma
jority of the citizens of Calais believe, that Mr..
Whidden unjustly obtained and withholds a
sum of money belonging to the city-We think,
and a majority of our fellow citizens seem to be
of the same mind, that in the appointments of
many of his subOrdinates, Mr.. Whidden has
consulted his own interest, rather than the
good of the party, the interests of the country,
the sentiment of the community or the wishes
of those citizens who aided in placing him in
his position. Believing this, we have been dis
inclined to support Mr.. Hale because. by doing
so, we should Indirectly endorse Mr.. Whidden
Bnt when the lines of party are 50 closely
drawn as they now are, and on the one side is
the Democratic party with its record of the last
twenty years, and ON the other side the Repub-
ican party, with its glorious record of sixteen
years, we can no longer hesitate. There is no
middle course. 1t is either for the Republican
or the Democratic party. Every vote against Mr..
Hale is indirectly tovote forthe Greeley headed
Democracy. Such being the issue, no private
feeling or dissatisfaction with local appoint
ments shall delude us into any course which
shall be, either directly or indirectly, support to
this two faced Janus which is endeavoring to
mask its native bhideoueness by wearing the
smiling countenance of the 'Sage of Chappa-
qua" [Calais AdUertiser.] --~t
