CITY AFFAIRS.
Special Meeting of the City Council.

A special meeting of the Council was held
last evening in reference to the resembling of
the appropri alton for the new school-house on
MunJoy Hill. The message of the Mayor in
reference to the subject and the order, were
published in yesterdays PRESS
In the Board of Aldermen the reasons in
lavor OF passing the order were that while the
members were all in favor of the school house
YET 1t was now so late IN the year that the
school house would not be in condition for &C.
cupancy until another year. 1t was merely
postponing the erection of the building not
decision to give up the building.
In favor of building now, and against the
passage of the order, it was argued that mex
year there may be a new city government that
won't argree to what this city government may
do; that this school house has been promised
two years; that the health (from the over
crowded condition of the present school build
lngs) of the children requires it; and that there
can be as good building erected this fall, as
If erected in the spring.
In the Council the same arguments were adj
duced.
In the Aldermen the older passed fiv, yeas
and one nay.
In the Council it failed of passage, 70 nays
and yeas.

Rally at North Bridgton.

NORTH BRIDGToN, Aug q, 1880.
One OF the grandest, most h.. liant and sue
cessful Republican rallies ever held in north
ern Cumberland was witnessed in this bean
full village last evening. A beautiful cam
paign flag was unfurled and after brief re
marks by Hon. H. B. Cleaves the immense
throng endeavored to find seats In the LARGE
church but notwithstanding extra settees the
crowd could not be accommodated. No such
audience has been seen here for years. The
first speaker was S. c. Smith, ESQ.,, of this
place, who briefly discussed the issues of the
hour. He was followed by Hon. H. B. Ceaves
Bridgton boy, who in a forty minutes speech
eloquently explained the duty of every Repub-
lican and of every true citizen with the reason
for such advice. Walker Blaine, Esq, was
then introduced as son of our distinguished
Senator and was received with round after
round ofsapplause, it being some minutes be-
lore he could make himself heard. For more
than hour his audience listened to an ELOQUENT.
exhaustive and forclble arraignment of the
democrats for their course in both National
and State affairs. The speakers were enthusi.
astically applauded and the enthusiasm was
simply immense. After the meeting there was
brilliant torchlight parade by the Garfield
and Arthur club to the number of 100 Along
the entire route the residences of twenty of
our prominent citizens were brilliantly illumi-
mated with candles, Chinese lanterns and col
ored Bengals, conspicuous among which was
the beautiful summer residence of, James
Webb, Jr., the well-known shoe manufacturer
OF Portland. The Bridgton Brass Band fur
nished excellent music. All in all it was the
Srandest time ever witnessed in our village,

THE OUTSIDE MEETING

1t was evident from the manner in which
the crowds were hoclzing to the hail. as early
as o'clock, that no building in the civ of
Portland would be able to accommodate them
after the hour for the speaking to commence
The City Committee therefore had staging
hastily constructed on the outside of the Citv
building, cerner of Myrtle street, where speak
ers could address those disappointed of an en-
trance to the hail. This staging was directly
in front of that devoted to the accommodation
of the band. afil3 &c
Soon after Gov. Davis commenced his speech
an outdoor meeting was organized and Hon.
u U. Williams, of Wisconsin, addressed the
crowd. And capital speech it was. too.
Astounding in wit and humor with keen tbrusts
at the weak points of the Fusionists. The
speaker possessed a clear, ringing voice. that
could be heard a great distance, and he held
the immense crowd to the close, whose cheers
and laughter were continuous And what a
crowd IL was as gazed upon from the portico of
City Hall. That great square was packed
with people who stretched up and down Con-
gress street for quite distance, their up-turned
faces study for an artist; some set and stern
as the speaker alluded to the attempts to de-
fraud them OF their rights earned at the polls
last September, and others again beaming with
broad smiles as the spectacle was pictured forth
OF the wedding of the Dem-Greenback
bride with the Temperance bridegroom. When
he paid handsome compliment TO Gen. Han
COCK some of the Fusionists standing on the
outskirts of the audience gave cheer.
THAT'S right" said the orator, s'now give
little one for our candidate, Gen. Garfield,
and the manner in which our boys s'whooped
er up for Garfield will ring in those fellows
ears for week to come.

Violations of the Game LAW

WITHIN the present year the powers and du-
ties OF the Commissioners of Fisheries for
Maine have been extended las also of War
dens) so as to apply to the enforcement of the
game laws. Alreadys there have been many
Offenders apprehended and fined for killing
deer and birds during close-time, and one of
the more recent cases was violation of the
law on woodcock, that cost the offender $40
and COSTA total of $50 for shooting wood
cock before September LIST. In all these cases
one half the fine is paid to the prosecutor. In
the instance referred to the prosecution was
made by one OF the commissioners and he re-
celved the amount to which he was entitled by
law as prosecutor $500, but gave it to the
County Treasurer for the benefit of the poor
in the county in which the offense was COM
mitted.
Inc Commissioners prosecute every case of
violation of the fish and game laws of which
they have knowledge whenever the necessary
evidence Can be procured. If the Legislature
OF each succeeding year grants the necessary
appropriation for the support of this depart
ment the fish and game laws of the State will
each year be as well enforced as other laws.
Printed abstracts of the general law of tn
State relative to fish and game have been dis
trlbuted, SO that there need be no transgressions
through ignorance if no change is made in the
existing we'll known and excellent laws.
The next annual report of the Commission.
ers OF Fisheries and Game, will probably afford
some profitable reading, especially for those
who have been in the habit of ignoring the
laws of this State.

BACK IN CAMP.
Hon. e. H. Cove Returns to the
Republican Party
AND WITHDRAWS FROM THE GREEN
BACK STATE COMMITTEE.

Hon. f. Fl. Cove, of Biddeford. chairman of
the Greenback State Committee, Secretary of
State under Gov. Garcelon, Greenback candi-
date for Congress in the First District in 1878,
and recently nominated by the York county
Fusion convention for Register of Probate, has
written the following letter:
BIpDEFoRD, Aug. 26, 1880.
Gentenen Of the Greenback State Committee ::
hereby surrender my membership of your
organization and withdraw. Hereafter [ shall
act with the Republican party. No one can
more sincerely than myself regret the neces-
sity that compels this step.
The original end sought through new party
was currency reform. Its present aim is '.to
beat the Republican party"
The first issue called thousands out The
second issue sends them back
Against the will and calmer Judgment of
true men, the persistent, tireless Democracy
have dragged the Greenback party into this
false position. find it no longer an independ-
ent organization. Its forces as now directed
are one with the "solid South" a factor in
the struggle for Democratic supremacy
OF this party Scion Chase says:
Ihey now stand upon the hardest kind of hard
money platform, and the Bourbon rule in the South.
where they have their own way, is disgrace to the
civilization OF any country
A solid South is the boast of the North
ern Democrats. 1t should be their shame and
confusion. 1t is not community of ideas be-
gotten of free discussion. 1t is the harmony
of fear, the unity of terrorism cemented in
blood
Now we are united by fusion with this GRIM
lnal and dangerous "Solid South" The young
pure blood and vitality of the Greenback
party is to be transfused into the frame of this
dying desperate
can see nothing of advancement to Green
back principles in this alliance SO fraught with
national peril.
L believe that interest and the good of the
country are best served by the defeat of the
Democratic party.
That l may contribute to that end, in the
most immediate and direct manner, 90 to the
Republican party.
am yours,
e. H. Cow, Chairman.

Serious Accident.

The Bridgton News says serious accident
occurred at South Waterford Monday evening.
just after dusk, Mr.. George E. Davis, of the
hrn OF Chas Mclaughlin & Co., of this city,
and wife, were descending the long and very
steep Mill Hill in a covered buggy, when the
horse became unmanageable and ran at full
speed down the frighful descent, and both oc-
eupants were thrown out The horse then ran
into Frank Mobiles team, damaging the ''buck-
board and throwing out Charlie Young, the
only occupant, and kept on for considerable
distance, dragging the completely smashed
buggy Mr.. Young was slightly hurt, Mrs
Davis escaped injury, but Mr. Davis was
badly injured. He was conveyed to his lodg-
ings, at Pine Grove House, and attended by
Drs Wilson and Mediation, who pronounced
his injuries not of a fatal chan acter.!
A letter received from Mrs Davisssays her
husband is comfortable and that the doctors
think he will be able to attend to business next
week. He bled little which was caused by
the ribs pressing against lung, over which
the wheel of the buggy passed. Mrs. Davis
was badly bruised. Her husband was thrown
from the carriage and she jumped out.

Rally at South windhan.


On Thursday evening the Republicans of
Windham and vicinity opened the campaign
with very large and enthusiastic meeting, by
far the largest gathering ever in that vicinity.

and the following officers nominated to pre-
side:
President-Dr. j. F. Cushman.

were surprised by the arrival of the torchlight
company from Saccarappa, headed by the Sac
carappa band. After procuring silence once
more the President proceeded to intro
duce as the first speaker Mr.. Seiders who
spoke mainly upon State issues for about so
minutes and held the closest attention of the
audience.
After music by the Saccarappa and Gorham
bands. Hon. r. G. Horn was introduced and
held the perfect attention of the audience for
upwards OF two hours. His speech teemed
with arguments unanswerable and unrefut-
able. and to the many fusionists gathered upon
the outskirts carried conviction which rendered
them as silent as the grave.
