NORTH GoRHAM.-T Republican meeting
at Golf & Plummer's Mills, North Gorham,
Tuesday afternoon, was in all respects mag
nihcent success. Messrs. Golf & Plum mer
with their usual public spirit and enterprise,
mad transformed one of their capacious dry
houses into an audience hall, which was a
model In all its appointments for such an occa-
sion. The Gorham Band of twenty pieces
were in attendance, and their performances
won for them golden opinions. All the sur
rounding country contributed to make an audi
eIce of about 1000, ladies and gentlemen, that
would have been regarded select, even at litera .
ry entertainments. At least $50 carriages lined
the approaches to the meeting COL Frederick
Robie presided, and in az! Introductory addres S
OF half an hour surpassed his best efforts in
the past. His reference to the uhcompromis-
ing loyalty Of the: early citizens Of Gorham,
who resolved that no persons affected with tory
sentiments should abide in the town was receiv-
ed with great favor by all present. Charles FL i.
Ereat Esq.,, of Bath, made finished and can
did speech of three-fourths of an hour, calcu-
lated to induce the Democrats of the class who
attended this meeting, to break away, as he
has done, from the affiliations solely in the in
terest of those who planned and promoted the
rebellion. The assemblage then listened with
no abatement of enthusiasmsfor two hours, to
Prot. ]. M. Langston of Washington, who full.
y sustained the reputation he has gained in
the South AMI recsntly in Vermont, of pre-smi
hence as an orator. His speech is spoken Of
by those present with the warmest praise.

EASTERN EXPRESS CoMPANY.-The business
public will regret TO learn that James N. Wins
low, Esq whose name has been associated
with the express business since its origin in
this section, has made arrangements to retire
from the active management of the Eastern
Express Company at an early day. The de-
mands of his large manufacturing enterprise
upon his time-the Portland Stone Ware Com.
pany-renders this step necessary. This bust
ness is largely increasing and demands his
entire time.
Mr. Winslow commenced the express bust
ness in 1889 en- the steamer Portland. He sold
this business to Mr. Child in 1874, when he was
appointed the first mail agent in the State of
Maine, under Mr.. Folks administration. He
went out of Office with his party in 1S49 and
resumed the express business agaia between
this city and Boston. In 1852, with Hodgman,
Carr & Co. and Carpenters Express, he form
ed the Eastern Express Company, name now
familiar in every village east of Boston. At
first its business was only extended to the
larger places in Maine, but now it is indeed
small village that does not have an agency or
representative of this sterling company whose
udulo Is Il fUuCuor loI pIOmpb uoIf6ry dul cI-
tire security.
The growth of this well known enterprise is
very largely due to the foresight and executive
capacity Of Mr.. Winslow. 1t is needless to say
that he enjoys the confidence of the business
public; AMI it must be,a source of just pride to
him to see what an extensive useful and we'll
conducted enterprise he has done so much to
build up,-an enterprise which, next to the
post office, is convenience to the people at
large, and to business men an actual necessity.
Mr. Winslow will not dispose Of his interest
in the Company, bat within short time Col
81. S. Osgood Of Augusta will take his place as
manager. Col Osgood has for long time
been connected with tho company and is thor
oughly conversant with the business. He Is
man of excellent business capacity and will
make an efficient successor to Mr.. Winslow.

our credit so good that whereas we could only
once borrow greenbacks at seven per cent
interest, we can now borrow gold at four and
half per cent. And NOW we deliberately intend
to take just as good care of the bill-holder, and
pay him the coin that his bill promises. We
know that the first law signed by President
Grant in 1869 pledged the payment of our
greenbacks as soon as we should be able. We
know that in 1875 we fixed that date for this
payment of the greenbacks on the LIST day of
January, 1879. We know that if the nation
keeps this promise to the blll-holder we shall
tell the truth and do the truth. We know that
if the nation breaks this promise we shall tell
lie and act q lie. Because we believe in
truth and honesty to-day as we believed in lib
erty in 1860, as we believed in LOYALTY in 1861.
we intend, God helping us, to keep that prom
Use and pay those greenbacks in coin on and
after the LIST day of January, 1879. We have
planted the flag OF resumption at that date and
we propose to fight our way up to it.
1t is related in an old Legend that when the
brave King Robert of Scotland died he gave his
faithful liege Douglas charge that he should
take bis royal heart to the Holy Lard and lay
it there at rest. Douglas undertook the task.
The heart of the dead king was placed in
golden locket, which the brave lord bore next
his own living and loyal breast Going to the
East he passed with his followers through
Spain. Engaged in battle with the Saracens
he was we'll nigh overpowered. But as the
infides closed around him, and in the desper-
ate fight hope seemed gone, he seized the
casket, flung it forward into the thickest of the
fight with the words: go thou on brave
heart as thou didst always go, beforep' Then
with new life his followers pressed on, and
fighting up to the golden heart they won the
doubtful day. So in these dark hours of dis
aster and depression, when the infide hosts of
doubt and encouragement force us back, let US
fling forward into the most desperate light the
golden heart of brave and honest promise,
and fighting up to this we shall get victory for
honor. victory TOR manhood, victory for absolute
honesty. With such victory shall come re-
viying confidence and returning prosperity.
The song of the spindle, waking from long
| sumber, the music of the forge, all the glad
| sounds of labor once again employed shall
| unite in the anthem when absolute honesty
| shall have won its victory. We sha II compel
| prosperity only when we shall have resoutely
| deserved prosperity.

ILLEGAL VoTING.--It is alleged
That from six TO ten persons voted at
the corporation election on Monday
who had no legal right to do 50,
and these seems no doubt that the
allegation is at least partially true.
Now, whatever may be thought, or
done, with regard to the effect Of
such conduct on the result of this
particular election, what We wish to
say here is, that something should be
done to punish the lawlessness and
prevent its recurrence. There are
quite enough careless and irreponsi-
bic voters in every community with
out having them imported; and no
matter on what side or upon what
question the illegal ballots be cast,
a live and law-sbiding people should
be prompt to resent such interference
in their elections.
