We notice that some Of the papers beyond the
State continue to reiterate the that Con-
gressional elections do not take place until No
vember. They'are held at the same time as the
Gubernatorial election, in September. The law
passed by Congress fixing on November for the
election of Congressman, had proviso making
an exception in the case of those States where
the State constitution would have to be amended
in order to make the change. Maine is one of
those States, and consequently the election of
Congressman here will occur on the second Mon
day in September, as usual. Following is the act
of Congress to which we have referred
THAT section twenty-five Of the Revised Stat
utes prescribing the time for holding elections for
Representatives to Congress, is hereby modified so
as not to apply to any State that has not yet
changed its day of election, and whose consttu-
ton must be amended in order to effect a change
in the day of the election of State officers in said
State. Approved March 8. 1875"

. A Card.

My name has been mentioned, with apparent
favor, by kind friends in different parts of the
county for nomination as Senator, at the approach
ing convention of the republican party. Most
sincerely grateful for the preference thus mani
fested nevertheless feel constrained to withdraw
my name. The claims of locality so prominently
urged in the late district convention, and already
advocated in the canvass for this convention, are
adverse to me, and | cannot fail to see that with
one Senator in Litchfeld the northern part of the
county have claims too strong probably, to be dis
regarded by the convention.
[ thereforefore feel sure that my Withdrawal
will conduce TO the harmony of the party, which
will be far more gratifying to me than any mere
personal triumph. HENRY WOODWARD.
