Judge RENTS Successor.

Judge Kent will soon retire from the
bench of the Supreme Court of this state,
and upon Gov. Perham will devolve the
duty Of appointing his successor. The
papers are already naming the prominent
candidates. 1t would be graceful and
delicate compliment to a body Of able
gentlemen, if the Governor should see fit
to name for the position one of the many
eminent democratic lawyers of the state
Without any disparagement Of others COM
posing that class, we might name Hon
E. F, Pillsbury, of Augusta, as peculiarly
fitted by high character, legal abilities
and location, to fill the position. We no
tice that Governor Washburn has Just APP
pointed to the Supreme bench of Massa-
chusetts Judge Endicott, well known
democrat of that state, and is warmly
commended therefor by paper so thor
onghly partizan as the Boston Daily
Advertiser 1t will be fortunate for all
the states if the policy comes to be estab-
lished once more that high character and
legal requirements rather than party opin-
ion, shall determine judicial appoint
ments.
II is matter for regret with those who
wish to stay the present tide of murder
that Gov. Dix should have reprieved Fos-
ter, the car-hook murderer. The princi-
pal reason given seems to be that the
widow Of the murdered man petitioned
for reprieve and communication. Fear is
now expressed that Foster will be sent to
prison instead of meeting the just penalty
of his crime
The seething cauldron of Louisiana
politics boiled over last week in the shape
OF revolt against the present State gov
eminent. A police station was fired upon
by the insurgents, which was repealed by
Gen. Badger with canister from artillery,
and the street cleared. The President
photographed Gen. Emery to use his forces
to prevent any interference with the State
government, which of course settled the
question. About six men were killed in
the conflict
Mr.. Allen, of the famous Literary
Companion, at Augusta, announces that
he cannot furnish the premium pictures
promised to subscribers. A good many
persons familiar with the business thought
he was promising too much.
The blocking up of all ways of travel
by the late terrible storms, delayed the
letters of our correspondents until in many
cases their usefulness was past This will
account for the non-appearance of many
communications. We hope, however, that
the season of tribulation is now over.
The young men attending Mr.. Han
sons school, in Waterville, recently at
tackled the woodpile of a lone widow, and
sawed it all before her astonished eyes.

AN IMMENSE BONFIRE. For thirty years
or more edgings and refuse wood had
been accommodating in close proximity
To the saw mills in Whtneygille The
piles were nt immense proportions, one
pile alone covering an acre and twenty to
thirty feet deep. BY careful and low esti-
mate this one pile contained ten thousand
cords! The mill owners have long de-
sired to get rid of the edgings, but never
have seen the time when they felt like
atfordlng the risk to apply fire This
winter snow, ice and water being favor
able, after trenching and ditching and
using all precautionary measures, fire was
put into the mountain of wood February
"a Some people became alarmed, an
ticipating a sweep OF the mills and of the
whole town! Word came to Machias for
help. The Fire Department dispatched
one Of their engines and men to care for
it. The engine at WhitneyvlIe was put
IN readiness All day Monday the pile
shrunk before the flame and all night
careful watch was had. The wind was
favorable, 80 that by Thursday night the
fire had made its conquest, the great pile
had nearly disappeared and no damage
occurred to the mills or property OF any
kind The hose was not wet, in tact no
work. only watch was needed. BY the
removal of this pile Of combustible ma
teria the mills are more valuable and the
whole town is freed from a great exposure
by fire, which might occur most destruc-
lively in Il summers drouth. GMachias

If this individual had boosted in the

Mr. Roberts concludes with paragraph
so remarkable, that we shall print it twice
in this issue 1t is as follows
Whether the slurring of a neighboring town
or the slaughter OF the innocents" in said town
Is manly journalism, or even wit, the iptelli-
gent readers Of the Republican Journal must
Judge.
Louis the Magnificent, of France, used
to say 81 am the state" When we in
quire into the conduct of the Collector of
Belfast, who unlawfully resides in "a
neighboring town." it seems that he is 50
much that town, that we are accused of
slurring it. Then there is a slaughter of
innocents. This usually refers to the
massacre OF infants, ordered by Herod, to
compass the death of the Savior. Of
course in the smile we are Herod--that's
plain enough; and from the persistence
with which the Collector labors to set the
people of Belfast right, it must be that he
considers himself the Savior of the CITY.
The slaughtered innocent can't be any,
body but Mr.. Hichborn, the President of
the road. Whether we are correct in thus
explaining the allegory, 1.-The intelligent
readers of the Republican journal must
judge"
In conclusion, let us say to the Col
lector that we hope to hear from him early
and often on this subject. 1t is only error
that fears discussion. Truth is strength
cned by it. And whenever he shall feel
like buckling on his armor again, he shall
cheerfully have our best efforts in the
matter.
