PENNINGTON, Dec. 81, 1S79.-The citizens of

evening to express their condemnation OF the

well filled and the meeting exhibited strong
purpose to maintain their political rights at

accurate account of the votes and the return

Mr. Chai,man,-Dear Sir: All who are present a
know that have been lifelong Democrat, anu
strong party man, but do not believe IN putting
partg before loyalty and honor, ana l cannot H
endorse the achotesde counting ouI lauo ~ ;li

(Signed) REUBEN ooiihN
The meeting continued until after IL O'Clock
and passed some very strong resolves in which
Mr.. Voter, the counted in Representative,
was censured, if he took and held his seat Ill
the Legislature.
The tone of the meeting showed dee.'
feeling.
Mr.. Voter, the counted in Representa-
tive, has ever been one of our leading citizens;
is pillar of the methodist church IN MS
town, and it is the belief of many that his
sense of honor and Justice will prompt him to
decline the seat thus unjustly given to him.

PORTLAND. Dec. 81
The market for all food staples is quiet, bnt firm
Flour is strong and steady with only moderate
trade. Grain without important change but quiet.
The Sugar market is off 1sc to-day, and quote
granulated at 9s4 and Extra at SAC. The Iron
trade within the past week two has taken fresh
start in American and foreign Pig. The sales in the
New York market last week were the largest for
long time and in all the principal places in the
usually active. The question of price seems to be
altogether secondary consideration, and the furna-
ces have more orders crowded upon them they can
take care of any in reasonable time, Scotch Pig,
which was offering in New York few weeks ago at
S2S9S24 y ton, is now held at $50 70 ton, and i'm
an increased demand in ali the manufacturing dis
tricts of the old world. 1t is confidently predicted
that the consumption in this country will ahead
of the supply and that before the year is half
out there will be scarcity of all kinds of Iron.

had signed for all were thrown out, New
Sharon and Hersey being two. Reference was
made to a conversation with Hon. l.. Powers,
ESQ.,, which has been reported IN the papers,
and the statements denied. Several returns,
defective because not attested by town clerks,
as in Lebanon, Vanceboro and Albany, were
thrown out. The following towns were thrown
out because some of the returns had the full
Christian names and others only the initials:
Exeter Danforth, Newcastle, Hodgdon and
Perry districts.
The statutes were read relating to planta-
tons and in these two Representatives were
affected, but no plantations were named.
Reference was made to the Fairfield returns,
and the statement made that the two returns
contradicted each other, but Mr.. Brown failed
to state that the second set of returns was
sent in as "amended returns in which atten-
ton was called to the error in the hrst return
In Cherryfeld, Mr.. Brown said, bribery had
been so practiced that almost the whole town
had been bought up, but a protest against a
town officer being legally qualified brought the
matter to our notice and we found one of the
board was foreigner In many cities where
they had charge of the check lists the Repub-
licans added names at will to control the cleo
ton.
Mr.. Brown charged unlimited fraud and
bribery upon the Republican party and con-
tinually referred to the Supreme Court decis-
ions and the oath of Office which he and his
associates have felt so binding upou them that
they have acted ARRAYS in strict compliance
with the laws.
IF the twelve gentlemen of our cities will
but wait patiently they shall have their seats
the second day of the session. We ask but an
honest verdict from the people upon our acts"
said Mr.. Brown in closing.
Hon. F. M. Fogg being introduced spoke as
follows:
''The Great Jehovah took this means to de-
feat the Republican party for its rascality
1 stood sincere and square for honest govern
ment, and we will have our Legislature in
spite of war, of bulldozing and intimidation,
If we are driven to the pines of Aroostook.
The Republicans used money freely, fixed its
distinguishing marks and if men did not vote
with them they were thrown out of employ
ment. have seen this many times in Lewis
ton. Men were driven to it by the Republic
can party. Moses Crafts of Auburn went
through his shop day before yesterday and
made yes made, his men sign call for an in
dignation meeting. Give us a sacred ballot
and we will carry the State three to one."
Resolutions were passed sustaining the Gov
ernor and Council in general and Mr.. Brown
in particular.

BANGOR Dec. &c. E. Miles, of Oldtown,
commanding the Jersey Light Infantry, has
requested the statement that he removed the
arms of the company from the armory to his
residence by orders from Major NJ M. Folsom
and he State House clerk, Mr.. French Major
Fols m is townsman and the most intimate
political follower of Mr.. Smith, the fusion
candidate for Governor, and is next in rank
below Lieut.. Col. Daniel White, commanding
the regiment of militia. Although the
removal of the arms was decided upon in this
city Thursday afternoon in view of the excite
ment, no consultation was had with Col.
White, who was easily accessible, but the
action was taken on the orders of the clerk,
who is not believed to have any authority to
direct movements Of the militia. All military
men here admit that the serious responsibility
of directing warlike Operations in time of
peace have been most carelessly and rregularl-
~ exercised in all these transactions in this
vicinity. There is the utmost quiet and order
throughout the community and the sentiments
of the card of the Citizens Executive Com
mittee, published this morning are fully en-
dorsed by the public.
