raid has been made by several State pa
pers on the recent action of the Board of Agri-
culture in the election of secretary, together
with the intimation of underhanded work by
Mr.. Boardman. We have not believed these
reports, and the Journal has not assisted in
giving them currency. The following card
from Mr.. Boardman, in the Watervile Mail
of last week, will explain itself:

says:
OF course we very gladly give place to Mr..
Boardman's comments upon this matter, after
having looked for them weekly in the Farmer
ever since the Winthrop meeting. Our &C.

card gives a new complexion to the case,
which every one Interested will doubtless be
glad to see.

To the Editors of the WaterriUe Nall
beg the use of so much space in your COL
umns as will be necessary to correct the fol-
lowing grave error which see in the Maine
Standard of Jan. l3, credited to your paper, no.
having noticed it at the time of its original pub
LEGATION by you. You are there credited with
saying-speaking of the annual meeting of
| the Board of Agriculture: CATER the election
of the President of the Board (Hon. Warren
PercivaD, it was moved and carried that Sec
rotary Goodale be declared elected by accla-
| nation. This was unanimous, and the Board
went to dinner. After dinner, and when but
fourteen of the twenty five members had come
| to time, the new president ignored the cleo
| ton of secretary, and called for ballot for
| that officer. In this little junto, with replen-
| ished stomachs, eight elected Mr.. Boardman,
| and six tried TO save Mr.. Goodale.''
Now the fact are these: The motion to
elect secretary by reclamation lras not car
ried, Mr.. Goodale himself Directing to it,
| and publicly stating that the election should
be by ballot; consequently "the motion to
elect Mr.. Goodale by reclamation" aras not
| unanimous. After dinner, the president did
not "ignore the election of secretary for no
election had been held and the election of
secretary was adjourned from A. NJ. until
IL 10 2. H., and from 10 10 to 80 P. NJ,
to allow trains and stages to arrive,
that expected members might be pre-
sent. To the correctness of this, the records
of the Board will testify. And these several
adjournments were made on motion Of Mr.
Goodale's friends. Does this look like a
''fraud" or trick, which you say governed
| the election?
The various statements claiming to be facts
that have appeared in several papers of the
State, concerning this matter, are as replete
with untruthfulness as the above-and the
opinions that have been made by the public
press, founded on these statements, are as
unfair and unjust They not only place my
friends in a false position, but are constantly
doing injustice and wrong to myself. In &C
cepting the position of Secretary 1 was party
to no frauds" or "tricks," and having been
legally elected, propose to discharge the re,
sponsibilities of the office to the best of my
ability.
1t would seem to be an act of justice if
those papers in the State who have given cur
rency to the above false statement, should
also give place to this correction

w,s,,rNcroN March lathe Senate Arms
Committee to-day examined Col. Benet. He
was Intercepted by Senator SEIZURE he SAID
in some cases even after margin nad been put
up, sales were not consummated, 1t appearing
that the arms were not OF such a q character as
supposed or for other reasons. On being asked
whether when it was discovered that Reming-
ton was agent of the French government that
fact was not considered important enough to
cancel the arrangement for the sale of them,
witness said that was for statesmen to answer
but the government should be held to contracts
the same as private parties. When an officer
was authorized to sell he was SO informed and
letter sent to, that effect to the party propOs-
ing to buy. The matter was considered closely
SO 1ar as the Ordnance office was concerned, and
Then the officer and the other party closed the
transaction. He, however, mentioned case
IN which Major Crispen did not conclude con-
tract and thus saved large sum of money to
the government He thought that the fact
would appear that Crispen was authorized to
sell but did not do so because he could get high
er prices The matter has no reference to par
tlcular individuals, but was general authority
TO sell to any body. 'e-
In reply to question by Senator Ames, he
said that there was no apprehension whatever
small arms enough to arm troops. According
to an official statement made within two or
three weeks there are now on hand 355, 1873 new
Springfield rifles, with other small arms, and
enough TOR an army OF 45O,OOO, men could be
supplied at the end of 80 days as hundred thou
sand breach leaders could be turned out a
month. Besides our own facilities private fac
tories can supply large numbers of arms with
out difficulty; troops must be got together be-
fore armed and they could be armed as soon as
mustered. A great many guns were taken
home by soldiers after the late war which
could be used.
POLITICAL RUMORS.
A Il, tot, hot
ed Republicans yesterday decided to send one
of their number to Cincinnati to confer with
others at the Convention. 1t is said that Sum-
ner, Trumbull, Fenton, Schurz and Upton con-
ferred, and agreed not to support Grant if NOM
to favor Judge Davis. Another despatch
states that combination is now forming to
run Senator Scott for Vice President instead of
Colfax or Wilson, in order to make a vacancy
in the Pennsylvania Senatorship for Forney.
