SETTLED, IS 1T?

While the last State Rights speech made
In Congress is echoing over the country,
assistant democratic organs are fraudu-
lently asserting that the doctrine of State
Rights as an issue has passed out of exist
ence-is dead and buried. They say it
was settled by the war, that nobody now
believes in it or desires to have it resur-
rected, and that it is only agitated by a
few democrats who are of no sort of con-
sequence politically.
Such assertions as these are not only
foolish but knayish. They are made with
the full knowledge of those who make
them that they are false. They can find
in the Bourbon press of the land tina,
which might convince them if they would
be convinced that they are stating false.
hoods. The records of Congress. the pro-
ceedings of democratic caucuses and con.

issue is not dead, but living.

SCHOONER JEFFERSON BORDEN

Capt Patterson of schooner Jefferson Borden
before reported at Aberdeen, Scotland, in distress,
writes to Mrs. Patterson at North Edgccomb,
Me-, that the passage over was very rough one.
The cook was taken sick, and seaman who bad
shipped on bis first voyage then tried to attend to
the cooking and did not succeed any too we'll
The gas and smell from the cargo (porgie chum)
was decidedly unpleasant. However, the vessel
made very good progress for the first three weeks,
and when 26 days out was within three days sail
of Gloucester, England. Then they encountered
easterly winds, and were driven to the northward
Strong southerly winds followed, which drove
them still farther from their destination. Then
they lost sail, jbboom and gaf and the rigging
was almost useless by the lanyards being carried
away. They got up to SO degrees north latitude,
and after passing north Of Scotland, concluded to
make the first port possible for repairs, and after
beating around for forty days, succeeded in get
ting into Aberdeen. They were ten days short of
water, which is not at all surprising, considering
the fact that the passage was expected to be made
in about thirty days. Captain Patterson says moth
ing Of being short of provision, as it is well known
the vessel had over three months supply when
she left her port of departure in Maine. Two
sailors leIt tle JeHerSCn BORDEN three Gays
she arrived at Aberdeen. They got on board
fishing smack. which boarded them in the North
Sea. Capt. Patterson makes no mention of any
great trouble with bis officers or sesmen. He
speaks of being somewhat worn down from hard
work and exposure, aludes to some bruises and
sore hands. He kept trying to make some port,
SO that he might telegraph home, but the wind
seemed to head him OF on every track. The hull
of the vessel remained tight and staunch, and he
would not have to discharge any cargo at Aber-
deem. He hoped to remain there but two weeks.
We find, on careful inquiry, that Capt Patterson
took plenty of provisions, that he had more than
water enough for an ordinary winter passage to
Europe; that they had to do the best they could
as to cooking; that it may prove doubtful about
any serious trouble from bad treatment having &C.
Cured on board; that it is little problematicrl
whether the mates and seamen could have known
in Aberdeen that the mutineers and murderers of
a previous voyage had been sent to Thomaston
jail If they did know, what kind of "reprieve"
did they suppose would be obtained for them' In
conversation with captains of vessels who were
well acquainted with Capt. Patterson. we find but
one opinion expressed, viz-that if he errs at all
it is in being too easy with his men. We are in
clned to think he will be able TO tell plain,
straightforward story in regard to the present
voyage. We presume that no one will contend
that the "foremast hands are to take charge of
vessel when she becomes short of water any more
than when everything goes smoothly. In such
it sometimes happens that discipline is quite

Res0lted, That due regard for the interest of
society," as we'll as the future we'll being of the un-
fortunate, imperatively demand that convicts IN
our several county jails be kept steadily employed
at useful labor.
Mr.. Prince thought the cduca received at
Jail would turn the convict's thoughts in q right
direction, and enable him to 60 out with the pur-
pose of doing something for himself. The school
at Thomaston was found to be beneficial. lie
wished all the counties would try the experiment
of schools.
The question of moral and religious instruction
was taken up.
Mr.. Wilson of IIalowe, said the inspectors
had deep interest in the success Of our jas. and
are earnest in the reformation OF the prisoners.
1t makes difference financially to the community
whether these men 60 out as industrious citizens,
or as vagabonds, to go out to prey upon the COM
munity. He expected, on the revival of business
that the work shops would pay, even financially.
But the great object is the moral Improvement Of
the inmates. We must combine labor with moral
and religious influences, embracing in the work
the subject of temperance. In most Of the local
tiles where workshops are established, preaching
and Sunday schools could be obtained without
cost. lie recommended also religious reading.
lie thought we ought to be patient and not expect
to accomplish all these things in a minute.
Mr.. Thing thought we must begin somewhere
to reform the criminal classes; and bring those
under good influences who have always been un-
der bad
Mr.. Perkins of Androscoggin, spoke of the
reformation of "Nels Leighton" who had re
formed in jail, and was now working for temper
ance. He urged his brothers to go forward in the
work.
Mr.. Phillips of Franklin, believed in educating
the ignorant and vicious, and letting them know
that are their friends, and interested in their
welfare.
DR.. Billings. Of the board of inspectors. was
glad That even IN the worst prisoners there were
golden threads in their characters, some part of
their nature not yet entirely depraved Some spark
Of good that may be found by prayers and efforts.
He thought the jails were not alone for punish
ment, but for reform as we'll A good deal de-
