PORTLAND, June 16, 1882.
This week has witnessed the opening Of
the Exhibition OF the Society of Art, the
thirteenth annual meeting OF the Maine
Medical Association, and the Republican
Convention. or the last, first.
The harmonious spirit of the Convention
has been generally commented upon by the
press of both parties. The contest between
the two candidates was q sharp one, bu,
the defeated side accepted the will of the
very small majority with hearty acquies.
ence that is cheering in these days of par.
ty intrigue and spiteful malice.
1927 ballots were cast, Col. Robe re.
ceiving only % more than Mr.. Thomas
The Congressional ticket gives general
satisfaction. though, of course, there are
some disappointed ones. The large at
tendance Is considered hopeful sign fol
Republican triumph at the coming election.
Aroostook sent sixty members. When il
is remembered that four days were necsss.
airy to make the trip it shows the interest
of the rural districts.
In the evening some of the friends of the
successful candidate, accompanied by
Chambers Band, proceeded to the home
of Mr.. Clark Barker, where Col. Robbie was
stopping and serenaded him. The gallant
Col. responded in happy speech. Mr..
Milliken, candidate for Congress, also
spoke. Fred Dow and Mayor Libbey We're
hopored ana made brief speeches. The
Band then went to the Press Office and
played n few selections.
The Medical Association closed its three
days session on Thursday. Eminent men
were present from all parts of the State. A
large number otnew members were elected,
among them, Dr. Sarah Ellen Palmer OF
this city. The revised code OF the New
York State Medical Association was repu-
dated
The Art Society gave the Members OPP
enins to-day. After this it is to be open
to the public from 10 a. VI. to l0r The
members OF the press were invited TO a
pirate view Wednesday evening. 0nlv a
eursory glance was needed to show that
this Is indeed "the most elaborate and
carefully-selected exhibition OF The yari.
GUS schools OF art ever shown in Port
land"
G. N. Porter, C. F. Klmball, II. b. Brown
and II. 3. ieves belong to Portland, with
Miss Maria Beckett, formerly of this city,
and Miss Spsulding of Portsmouth, sister
of DR.. J. A Spauldiug OF this city.
The Exhibition comprises the works OF
more than half a hundred celebrated art
lists, ana includes oil ana water oolors, to-
gether with drawings in black and white.
As opportunity is offered for more extern
siye scrutiny, hope TO describe few Of
the more noteworthy paintings.
The coming weel is to lie c musical car

The Convention was enthusiastic as IL
was large, and remarkably harmonious.
The nomination Of Col. ROBBIE on the first
ballot was surprise to many of the dele
gates and lockers on, for both sides were
equally confident of success until the last
moment. Though unexpected to the friends
OF Mr.. Thomas, they heartily join in sup
porting the nominee of the Convention.
They set their personal preferences aside,
and rejoice that the State is to have so
able Governor as Col. Robe will become.
The nomination of Mr.. Robe was u spon-
tansous, peoples movement, indicated
and unlocked for by the usual political
managers. The farmers Of Maine came up
to make his nomination certain, and they
will see to It that he is elected. His posi-
ton as Master of the State Grange has
made him many friends among the farmers
and the farmers have a msjority OF the
votes of Maine in their hands which they
will bring out next September.
The Congressional ticket slavery strong

doing good work for Maine in Congress,
and their denomination was expected
Capt. Boutelle of the Bangor Wig will be
