forgive is Divine, upon the condition OF
repentance of course.) We believe that the
era has not yet arrived when by divine
order, the sheep take their places on the
right hand and the goats take their places
on the left hand, nor when all good men
take their places in the right party, and all
bad men take their places in the wrong
party. Sheep and goats will be more or less
mixed in this world, and it only adds cruelty
to presumption for each species to ignore its
family relationship.
The Grant boom seems to be booming
wonderfully. We cannot resist the impress
sion that Grants nomination would be a
misfortune to the Republican party, and his
election be possible misfortune to the
country. We cannot shut our eyes to the
fact, that the civil service under Grants adj
minstration was not VIGOROUSLY pure, nor
his administration prominently popular.
1t led to rupture in the Republican ranks,
and caused the temporary alienation at least,
of some of its strongest men. 1t seems
hardly wise to accept for third term one
whose pre-eminent claim seems to be chiefly
founded on his military genius and his
foreign popularity.
Grant has nothing to gain in point of
honor, and it seems almost too much to ex-
pect of his human nature that his patriotism
alone would be sufficient 10 carry him
through the strain of another term of irving
responsibilities and temptations.
We need more than faith in military
genius to preserve our republican institu
tons from decay-we need faith in the in
destructible principles Of self-goyernment.

The Tunk Pond Fishing Fraternity

Rev. George Nibbcrt OF Boston, will de-
liver his Temperance Lecture. The Citizen
and the Dram Shop in Good Templar Hall
al North Penob>cot, Friday evening Of this
week 1t was my pleasure to hear this lect-
ure in Dover. \. H., last fall and it was
there pronounced one of the best Temper
ance Lectures ever delivered in that beer
cursed city.
Mr.. NIbbert has not the dramatic elo-
quence Of a Golf, or the pathetic, touching
power of Murphy; he deals not in thrill
ing descriptions that excite the emotions of
his audience, but he presents the subject in
fresh and convincing light, appealing to
the common sense and common interest Of
the masses. He says, The most sensitive
nerve in Yankee is the nerve that leads to
his pocket" and upon that nerve he brings
his intellectual battery to bear with peculiar
skill and power rs lecture abounds in
sharp hits mat do not fail to bring down the
house, and is very entertaining.
We understand that his engagement to
speak at the Northern Bay this week is can
celled on account of the pressure of other
engagements.
Let there be grand rally. Come with
earnest hearts and willing pockets and
cause him to feel that his effort is appreciated.
We are afraid that our mining excite
ment' will flush in the pan unless there is
more generous faith in humanity exhibited.
Our landowners seem to be laboring under
an lawful presentiment" that rogues and
spectators are to take possession of their
coveted treasures, by some mysterious,
slight-o f-hand performance, and they seem
to look with cold suspicion upon every
stranger who opens his mouth with the in

premises ?" Every one-there NAV be a
few exceptions-seems to have a strong de-
sire to know what there is under the sod be-
fore he is willing to sell-out or lease his
mineral interest
But farmers do you feel able and willing
to make the doubtful discovery at your own
expense. and pay the price Of scientific in
formation to aid YOU in your undertaking ?
We fear that little will be done to unlock
our possible mineral wealth, unless capital
is generously invited from abroad.
