The statement in the Democrat last week, to
the effect that the Greenback Club had
disbanded on account Of internal troubles, is a
trick to deceive the public. There is large
independent greenback Club still in existence

will be made known in Rice county this fall.

The Mayors Address.

1t is not necessary to call the attention of
our readers to the admirable address of May
or Fessenden to the City Council. 1t has
been so carefully prepared that no important
interest has been overlooked. The debt of
the city is analyzed and so set before the rea-
der that he can see how it has been incurred.
The address shows that Gen. Fsssenden is
not novice in Our municipal affairs. His
recommendations for the exercise of practi-
cal economy in city expenditures evince an
earnest determination to carry the same into
effect. His suggestion that current demands
upon the Treasury be met as they accrue, if
not popular, is wise. Municipal governments
will, like individuals, spend more freely when
the evil day of paying can be put off to that
more convenient time which never comes.
There can be no doubt but that the City
Council will cordially cooperate with Mayor
F1ssenden in giving the citizens Of Portland
a prudent and judicious administration.

New HamnShirp.

The contest in New Hampshire, which
comes to close to-day, excites deeper
interest than any political battle in that state
for years. It is something more than affair
of outposts, and its issue is regarded, whether
justly or not, as significant of the result of
the presidential campaign of 1876. In no
state in the Union are parties so evenly
divided, in no state can trivial circumstances
so easily incline the scales. If the Republi-
cans succeed, as there is good reason to be-
lieve they will, the triumph will be more than
an ordinary one and will indicate that the
people of the country are with them,-for
they succeed against enormous odds. They
have to work in face of a thousand rumors of
fraud and corruption in official position to
which the downfall of Belknap jnclines peo-
pie 10 lend credulous cars. They have to
meet the cry, clamorous and unreasonable,
that the malfeasance of public officer is a
crime shared in by the political party which
he represents. They have TO contend against
the dissatisfaction which always obtains with
aparty which has enjoyed long lease of
power. They have to encounter an enemy
bold, unscrupulous, apt in fraud, eagerly
availing itself Of all the weapons of misrepre-
sentation and calumny.
The Democracy realize that defeat to them
in New Hampshire to-day is well-nigh equiv
alent to destruction of their hopes of carrying
the country in November and they are straln-
ing every nerve and drawing upon every re-
n fho fhroafonod T,>
despair of carrying the State by fair means
they have resorted to the grossest frauds and
hope to overcome the honest majority against
them by adroit use of the shameful arts of
Tammany in the cities which they control.
Whether they will succeed in defeating the
will of the people by expedients heretofore
almost unknown in New England remains to
be seen. But victory gained by such means
will be of no moral effect.
Three weeks ago, it is conceded, The state
was in the hands of the Republicans. Since
then the Belknap exposure has occurred
Save that the situation is precisely the same,
and it is not to be believed that because an
officer high in position has betrayed his trust
the people of New Hampshire will turn to
the Democracy whom but few days ago
they heartily distrusted. The Democrats are
no better to-day than when the month came
in, than when in their short lease of power
in New Hampshire they e7inced the most un-
scrupulous partisanship and lent their coun-
tenance to the most outrageous frauds. Be.
cause William Belknap has betrayed his trust
it does not follow that New Hampshire shall
choose Daniel Marcy as her executive, man
whose only recommendation is his wealth,
and whose only utterance that has COM
manded remembrance is that infamous one
in which he declares that the name of Abra-
ham Lincoln "will go down to posterity along
with the deep execrations of all who revere
and love the Union"
II order that our readers may appreciate
the closeness of New Hampshire elections,
we append the vote for Governor for the past

ONE of the Washington papers expresses
the situation in the Belknap affair very clear
ly when it sees zone Democrat, taken into
the confidence of the Republican party, be-
trays it by taking bribe. The chairman OF
the committee that investigated the case
hurried an important witness away in order
to screen partisan friend that is implicated
George 81. Pendleton is the partisan friend
and Hester Clymer is his protector. Anoth-
er member of the committee is proved guilty
of ofbribery. His name is Robbins, of North
Carolina, who stands selfconvicted of the
disgraceful act. The third member of the
committee has a record that will soon be
made public, so odious to loyal, upright men
that they will turn from its details amazed
and nauseated. This man is Blackburn,
brother of DR.. Blackburn who attempted to
make one vast cemetary of the North, by in
Producing the malignant smallpox and yel-
low fever into the Union army and into the
sea-coast cities"

Yesterday, Bangor, Augusta and Belfast re-

Bath, Auburn and Saco in electing Republi-

jorities. Even Biddeford came near swing
ing into the victorious galaxy Of Republican
cities. In all the cities the elections were
hotly contested and the vote on both sides
was very heavy; but despite the desperate ef-
forts of the Democracy, the Republicans have
attained majorities which have exceeded the
expectations of the most sanguine.

PROF. SILLIMAN in letter addressed to
the House committee on foreign relations,
published in the New Haven Palladium, de-
MES that his dispatch of April 6, 1872, con-
cerning discoveries at the Emma mine had
the effect to send up the price of Emma
shares. On the contrary he shows, from the
London Mining Journal, that from March II
of that year to April 13 the stock did not fall
below e23 nor rise above e24. He accuses
Lyon of garbling the dispatch in his testimo-
ny before the committee and shows that
there was nothing in it to justify Lyons as
sertion that it represented 5000 tons of ore as

REV. M. G. JULIAN, pastor of tie Unita-

ford, created something of sensation Sun
day by declaring in an address to rsfornn
club that he was not in sympathy with the
temperance movement though he believed in
temperance. He thought rum-selling le-
gitimate business, was opposed to either Ii
cense or prohibitory legislation and could not
advocate total abstinence.

THE admission made by Senator Thurman
in the Democratic caucus Saturday night was
asignifcant one. He said that the report of
the majority of the caucus committee yielded
to the advocates of soft money ninety nine
out Of hundred points, and saved to the
hard money men only one point, that of the
simple declaration that the Democratic party
is in favor of specie payment at some future
time. That is the situation exactly.
