To the Honorable Justices of the Supreme Judicial
Court next to be held at Augusta, in and for the
county OF kennetec on the thiid Tuesday OF October,
lS0.
Tine undersigned respectfully represents that the
L American Bank, then doing business at Hal
bwell in said county, in September, 1861 caused the
ship Alexandrine to be attached as the property OF
Henry Cooper, Jr., and Others who were then ill.,
dbted to the Bank; and about the same time, said
Bank ordered your petitioner to said ship to be
Insured for their benefit for the of six thousand
dollars (S6,OuO) in the Piscataqua Fire and Marine
Insurance Company. This was done in the name OF
your petitioner and he gave hts individual note for
The premium amounting TO one hundred and thirty
six dollars ($l36)
During the life time of this policy, said Bank failed,
and Henry X. Baker, Eliphalet Rowell and Simon
Page were appointed receivers of the same and your
petitioner turned this policy with other papers
aud assets of the bank to them; and when he was
subsequently, called upon by the Insurance Company
10 nav this note he notified said receivers of all the
facts in the and requested them to take charge
Of it, and relieve him from all liability on account OF
the same but said receivers while not denying that
they ought to relieve your petitioner and assume the
liability, If any there was, refused To pay SAID note
to said Insurance Company for the reason the com
any was insolven at the time they issued the policy
Consequently the note remained unpaid and was
sued and the writ was returnabe Mt the Supreme
Judicial Court in and for the county Of FORK at Sep
eaber term 1865. At that term, >. &. Harley, an at

WINDOWS BOOM.
Ispecial Telegram to the Globe.l !

Special Telegram to the Globe.
CHICAGO, June 6.-The Grant men are
rock-rooted for their candidate. There is
more of feeling tonight that it will mar
row down to a square contest between Grant
and Blaine than at any previous time. Dark
horses are at a discount and Windom's
boom is quoted for about ten
for cent and no buyers.
AS near as can ascertain Window will have
10 solid votes on the first ballot. On pre-
liminary matters the Minnesota delegates
have divided, but that was simply the policy
of carrying water on both shoulders. When
it comes to actual vote if you will put the
telephone to your big ear you will hear 10
votes boom.
1t is great help to Window to have his
entire boom solid. Every delegation from
every State that he now has will stand by
him on first ballot and will stake my repu-
tation as a political prophet that he will
have 10 votes at the outset 1 am thus
particular in order to relieve the
anxiety of Minnesota.I haven't doubt many
of the Sunday schools, wherein be does his
campaigning, offered prayers for him to- day,
and 1 beg TO asure you that they are certain
to be answered. Not man will finch and
the Sunday schools who are interested
in this great and good man.

may feel happy that this boom is solid as the
Rock of Ages, without single cleft for me
or any other man.
Garield's speech presenting Sherman is
much complimented and would attract more
attention if Sherman was not counted out in
the race. Indeed Garfield 8 own chances are
as good or better than Sherman's. Washburne
is generally denounced as traitor to Grant,
but his treachery is merely family charac.
teristic, pretending not to be candidate
and for Grant, he has been working in an
underhanded manner to secure the nomina-
ton himself. He left Boston last Monday
to come to Chicago by easy stages, claiming
he was sick. He evidently planned it to
reach home at noon, for he arrived at De-
troit last night, and took rooms at hotel.
He thought the convention would be over
last week, and by keeping out of the way he
would have the compliment of being called
upon to decline. His is said
to have been delighted when he heard
his name was presented. met Joseph Me-
dill at the Tribune to-day and asked his
opinion. / think the race is between Grant
and Blaine, and that on the first ballot
Blaine will lead Grant about 10 votes. After
that 1 don't know what will happen.
The Tribune is strong ti-Grant. The
Grant men claim they will lead Blaine at out
set, and continue to gain. The Ohio dele
CATION has a secret meeting at the Grand
Pacific. with a telegraph instrument
in the room connecting with
Sherman's house in Washington. The Ohio
delegation will undoubtedly drop him quite
early, and that the darkies will follow
suit is generally believed. Nomination will
be made tomorrow. 81. p. FL.

IN ST. PAUL.
EFFECT OF THE NEWS.

The interest in the desperate contest of fac
tions at Chicago, which is felt in st. Paul, was
manifest in the crowds which hung around the
bulletins at the daily newspaper offices, or
rushed back and forth between them, eager to
be among the first to read the very latest news.
And that not all those who were warmly inter-
ested were personally present, was to be
judged from the number of errand boys
and junior clerks to be seen copying
each fresh bulletin, and running with the fig
ures to the stores and Offices where they are
employed. The GLOBE bulletins held a crowd
all day long, which was greatly increased in the
evening when the GLOBE special crayon artist
began his charcoal illustrations of the progress
of the "Windom BOOM" from sketches trans
mitted by lightning direct from Chicago. The
first showed stalwart Minnesota with its little
Window tail of kite manipulated by wires
leading to Oonkling's corner. The Others, ia a
great variety of spirited designs, illustrated
the impossibility of dragging the little boom
forward. And the last depicted the Window
boom after adjournment in ten
tired and disgusted instructed
delegates, lone, forlorn and busted, camped
around corner lamp post, each in attitude of
deep despondency. 35a9i
Among those who waited and watched for
news, were both Democrats and Republican,
the former happy and confident and the latter
".
however, Grant Republican would come
along and he would look at the steady columns
of Grant with an II told you so'' air that was
like gall and wormwood to the Blame Repub-
icans. As for the Window boomers, they are
all at Chicago. Here and there were heard ex-
pressions of hopes that neither Grant, Blaine,
or Sherman would be nominated and that the
choice might fall on Edmunds or Garfield.
1t is evident thst with the majority of
Republicans there was a fear that the three
senators will hold their following until they
have worn out the opposition, and forced such
breaks from Sherman and Blaine, ,aswill asnom-
mate the silent favorite of the bosses of the
machine in politics. And when the adjourn
ment for the right was carried by anti Grant
votes, Republicans here appeared to feel that
unless the opposition to Grant was united be-
. fore morning on some one candidate the wear
ing out plan would win and Giant finally be
nominated.

The Circus.

With scarcely an announcement beyond the
aaring pictures on the bill-boards, Sells BROTH
ers' circus performed yesterday to two large
congregations of people. The general verdict
was that the combination had been appropri-
ately named. 1t was sell, and a most
egregiOus one. The menagerie was fair. 1t
contained the usual variety of animals carried
around the country by such shows. The arena
performances were of the most stupid and
hackneyed sort. There was considerable clum-
sy tumbling, horseback riding by men and
women who apparently had never seen the in
side OF a first-class circus, and jokes by the
clowns that were 6rst given to the world when
Noah first dismissed his circus from the ark on
Mount Ararat. Even James Robinson, who
was once considered good bareback rider,
showsthe effects of old age and dissipation and
failed miserably to give even q moderate exhi-
bition on very tame horse. The show as a
whole was fraud from first to last and those
whe appreciate good arenic performance will
do well to avoid it and wait for something
better.
