all that portion requiring an affidavit Of the
plaintiff that he does not believe the defend

This concludes the review Of the circuit
court chapter. Many excellent changes have
been made, and there is m lrked improve
ment in the arrangement of the sections. In
but few instances have the existing statutes
been repealed. The new provisions for
the most part, additional 10 t.ose already in
force. Many. cases are provided for about
which there has heretofore been no express
legislative enactment, and formalties have
been dispensed with to a great extent.
Presuming that the citizens of the State
generally would be interested in knowing the
alterations that have been made in the law,
have, in many instances, been much more ex-
plicit in pointing out and explaining the eff
feet of changes than would have been neces-
sary or even proper, if the articles had been
written for lawyers only to read. The Chan
Gerry Court Chapter will be taken up next week

yourselves too soon. The hair that is brown

the men who are to take the census in the
South and they can easily pack grave

am not mistaken, youw find more grave

lose its grip upon the nation if it can hold it

paper strongly in favor of Grants nomi-
nation says: It seems to be very hard
for some republican editors to forget that
the fight over candidates ended at Chi
cago when Gen. Garfield was unanimous
~ declared the nominee of the republi-
can party. If there must be struggle
over the question Of who beat Grant
or who beat Blaine, let it be post
poned until after the election next fall
The days will be cooler then and the
nights longer. Then let the battle-searred
heroes sit down by their own firesides and
recount their deeds of bravery to those
who may take interest enough to listen to
their story. There is no time for such
things now. The call to-day is into the
ranks for active service. The enemy is
in the front. not in the rear.
The word of command is to repub-
licans, not to Grant men or Blaine men.
and every true. loyal republican will heed
the call.

JAMES A. GARFIELD,
OF OHIO.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
CHESTER A. ARTHUR,
OF NEW YORK,
The Very Last Defence Of the
COunting-0ut COnspiratOrs.
FOR PRESIDENT,

The Very Last Defence Of the
Contingent COnspiratOrs.
The contingent conspirators have
rushed into print with another defence OF
their outrageous conduct last fall and
winter. The numerous defeDces they
have issued to the public indicate high
degree Of mental perturbation. They are
not 20 calm as they were last November
and December, when they sent out word
to republicans from fbe Council Chamber
that they held the fors, and tauntingly in
quircd "What are you going to do about
ite" They were very reticent while they
were attempting to carry out their deviltry ;
having been found out and exposed and
driven by the hot wrath OF the people from
the State House. they find it necessary to
add defence to defence. excuse to excuse,
for the bad course they pursued.
This last defence is a conglomerate OF
all the other deiences 1t is the final de-
fence-until another shall appear. 1t is
covering the State thicker than the
potato bugs. But the conspirators might
As well try to arrest the tides in their
course rs to attempt to turn back the great
wave Of public opinion which long since
rolled its just condemnation over them.
The people OF Maine made up their minds
long ago about this counting out conspiracy.
They know the outrage which was at
tempted and cant be duped by the false
pleadings of the wicked conspirators.
The proof Of their baseness is found in
their own confessions, from their own
sworn testimony before the investigating
committee, from perfect transcripts OF
their own letters and tabulations, from
the we'll known fact that they skunk out
of the State House where they were in
trenched and yielded possession after all
their buster and threats and show of
force to the peoples rightfully chosen ser
wants and the admonitions of their own
coward hearts. The managers ofthe peoples
case against the men who attempted the lar
ceny Of the State government will soon place
before the public the evidence which they
have gathered oil the doings Of the con-
spirators. and then people will see more
clearly than they have yet seen what a
wicked attempt was made BY the late 'u-
sion administration to overthrow the will
of the people as expressed at the ballot
box, and subvert the government Of the
good State Of Maine.

Under the energetic supervision of Secre-
tarv Mcpherson the work of the republican

already been done. Within a few DAYS a list

Gratis that the Chicago nominations NAV not
be as strong rs the party leaders could have
made. but they are just strong. enough to

them will require the mast skillfal engineer

The New York Sun and other papers pur-
suing that line Of attack are mistaken if they
suppose they can make political capital
against General Garfield because he was a
member Of the electoral commission. They
will find before the campaign is over that the
country hasn't q very serious grudge against
anybody whose efforts saved it from being
ruled bv such person as subsequent revela-
tons proved Mr.. Tilden to be.

PlaisteA's Opinion Of Blaine.


While the dirty little democratic ours.
like the Maine Standard, are barking at
Mr. Blaine's heels. they have nominated
. candidate for governor who has spoken
many good words for Mr.. Blaine. After
al the testimony relating to Mr.. Blaine
was concluded, andeverything was known
of the charges against him that is now
known, Hon. II. NJ. Plaisted, the Fusion
candidate for governor, then represen-
tative to Congress in Washington. and
thus familiar with all the facts, wrote
letter to Whiting s. Clarke. Esq, Of Ban
gor. under date Of May %, 1876, in which
he thus defended Mr.. Blaine:
Blaine will be nominated at Cincinnati.
Remember this. He has given TO the party
it, present prestige and vantage ground, ana
il would be as wicked as unwise to allow
another TO enter into his lzbors.
The mud machine" will not touch him
He Is a man instinctively right, and. be-
lieve, will be found not only not guilty Of
corrupt practice, but incapable Of it. You
know I have never been partisan Of Mr.
Blaine. But have seen him here, what he
has done, and know him as never before
Insignificant are all personal and local
squabbles, chickering's and claims, compared
with the interest Maine has in the election OF
Blaine President Of the United States, and in
the brilliant administration he is sure to
give the country. The people of Maine will
1--WE little heed to such squabbles, except to
stamp them out with as little ceremony as
possible.
Very truly your friend,
II. NJ. PLAIsTED.
When the mud machine is set in mo-
ton against Mr.. Blaine, let this tribute to
MIN from the Fusion candidate for COVER
nor be sufficient answer.
