Up Guards and At En-.

Republicans of AIaine victory is yours
to-day if you will but seize upon it. Our
canvass shows that the State is ours if Re
pubhcans do their duty. There ought to be
no doubt of that. The watchword must be
work, work, work, and again, work. until
the going down of the sun to-day. If Re-
publcans are guided by the spirit OF that
watchword the sun will set upon State re-
deemed and victory achieved.
Republicans should give this day to their
party, and direct all their efforts to its sue
cess. Each man should make it matter of
personal interest, take all the appeals made
throughout the canvass as made to himself,
and give his time and strength and all the
power that is in him to the accomplishment
of Republican victory. He should not
trust to the work done and doing by the ac-
tive leaders in his town or city; he should
not trust to the work done by his neighbor;
he should make the fight his fight and go in
to win. Old men and young men, the Old
Guard and the Young Guard of the Repub-
licans, nay, the Veteran Reserve itself,
SCARED by the wounds of many conflict,
must be promptly on the ground and in
fighting trim,-must be ready to push back
the enemy at every point of the long line
until our opponents break and fly. 'Up
Guards and at them," and we shall infict a
Waterloo defeat on the coalition.

MENT OF THIS DISCOVERY.
Celery has only come into public notice within the
last few years nervine, but scientific expert
ments and experience have proved beyond a doubt
that it controls irritation and periodic ner-
vous and sick headache to a marked degree
But combination of the EXTRACT OF CELERY
AND CHAIoMILE, which has been but recently in
troduced to the profession and the public by myself,
has produced such marvellous results in curing ner
vousness and headaches and especially nervous and
sick headaches, neuralgia indigestion and sleepless
ness tha. it has excited public attention and news
paper comments; and, therefore, give the follow
ing information to the public to avoid answering
hundreds of letters of inquiry about them:
My Celery and Chamomle Pills, for the cure of
headaches and nervousness, are prepared under my
supervision, and intended expressly to cure
headache, neuralgia indigestion, sleeplessness and
nervousness, and will cure any case where no Or
ganic disease of the brain or spinal cord exists.
Hundreds of cases of many years standing have
been cured. No matter how chronic or obstinate
the may be, permanent cure is morally Ger
TAIN This statement is made after years of expert
in their in the general practice of medicine
These pills are also valuable for school children
who suffer from nervous headaches, caused by an
overworked brain in their studies, and for all class
es of hard brain workers. whose oyer-taxed ner-
vous centres need repair and ISOLATION. Nervous
tremor, weakness and paralysis are being daily
cured by these pills. They correct costyeness but

Our Representative Ticket.

The Republican candidates for Represen-
tatives to the Legislature from this city can
not be too strongly commended to the voters
of Portland. The ticket is one of great mer-
it, and its success should be sought for by
all our citizens. Without disparaging the
worthy gentlemen whom the Opposition
have nominated it can be sincerely said that
the Republican ticket is the stronger, and
the better framed 10 further the interests of
the city.
Certainly it is for the interest of the city
and of every property-holder in it that ex-
Mayor Butler should represent Portland in
the next Legislature, when the question of
State Valuation comes up. His sagacity,
experience, and intimate acquaintance with
matters of valuation and taxation, will make
him indispensable there if the claims of the
city are to be put in the clearest and most
convincing way With him stands Mr..
Strout, whose legal ability, wide acquain
tance throughout the State, and brilliant
qualities as an advocate, will make him of
very effective service. Messrs. Maxcy,
True and Redlon, representing the CONNER
cal and mechanical industries of the city,
will be valuable allies.
1t should be borne in mind, too, that if
our delegation be in political sympathy with
the majority of the House its propositions
will be received with greater favor and stand
a better chance for acceptance. That ma
,jority will be Republican. OF that no doubt
can now be entertained. A Democratic
delegation from this city, no matter how
well made up, must inevitably fail to COM
mand the attention and confidence which
would in the next Legislature be accorded
to Republican delegation. Our citizens
will do well to bear these considerations in
mind when they vote. 1t is for the in crest
of all of them that Portland should have
the strongest representation possible.

During the vital crises of the rebt

During the vital crises of the rebellion,
when defeat after defeat rolled back upon
our armies in the field, and our great cities
rocked with fierce internal commotion, as
the time drew round for the Fall elections in
the North, the loyal hearts of the nation
looked anxiously for the annual verdict of
Maine, well knowing that as she spoke would
be voiced in clarion tones, encouragement
to our gallant soldiers, and corresponding
chagrin and disappointment to the rebel
leaders and skulking treason at home. And
Maine never failed to respond most unequiv
ocally to the anticipations of that loyal SEN
timent. Voters of Maine, the same senti-
ment is looking to you to-day, to place your
State again in the Republican column, and
to strike the keynote for the great campaign
of 1880. And you will do it.

WHAT II rnouaHr or euRnENcy AoIrArIoN

WHAT IT THOUGHT or CURRENCY AGITATION.
Some of the gold and silver men seemed
doomed to mutual disappointment. The former
thought gold would go up when silver was
made IAN equal yoke-fellow with gold, while
a class of silver men were mortally afraid of
the resumption of specie payments. Cold in
stead of going up has gone down, and on Sat
urday brought only, one per cent. premium.
The next notch will bring greenbaeks to par
with gold, which will be practical resumption
This extremely desirable result, for all honest
interests, will soon be an accomplished fact, if
we have no more foolish agitation and legisla-
ton in reference TO the currency.-Areus,
March II, 1878,
