The republican national committee will meet
in Washington Dec. 10Th. to designate the
time and place of the next national republican
convention. At the last meeting of the COM
mittee resolution was adopted setting forth the
basis of the call for the next convention, to which
not only republicans, but every patriot ought to
subscribe. The resolution was as follows:
Resolved, That the call for the next republi-
can national convention shall be so broad and
liberal to invite the cooperation. without
imposing any other tests of fealty. of all citi-
zens who are in favor of eleyating and dignity
ing American labor, protecting and extending
home Industries. giving free and popular edu-
free suffrage and the honest counting of ballots
and efectually protecting all human rights in
every section Of our common country, and who
are willing to support the nominees of the con
ventiOn.
1t is suggested by leading politicians that
there should be a conference of leading Repub-
licans of different parts of the country IN
Washington, prior to the meeting of the Re
publican National Committee. to consult as to
the best future policy of the party. The cities
for which the strongest claims for the holding
of the Republican Convention have been made
are Philadelphia, Saratoga, indianapolis, Gin

LEGENDS, LYRICS AND SONNETS. BY Fran.
ces l.. Mace. In this neat little volume we
have a collection of the poems of Maine
woman-Nlrs. Mace of Bangor. Many of them
originally appeared in the leading maya ines
and literary journals and have been widely
circulated by the newspapers. This is certain
~ evidence that they met with popular appre-
clation, and Il perusa of some of the poems as
now printed conyinces US that they are worthy
of preservation in more enduring form Deli
cate fancies, and fine literary tastes are reveal
/ ed in Mrs. Macc's writings, and some of the
lyrics are very musical in their rythm. The
legend with which the volumes opens, "ISratil,
had the place of honor in Harpers Monthly,
with illustrations, some months ago and some
of those that follow are local in theme and
cololing as ''Norembega," "kineo." and The
BoWdoin oak" The lighter lyrics will be
more to the taste of the general reader and in
perusing the one given below we might readily
fancy ourselves making the trip from the Camp
Ground at Northport to Bangor. 1t is entitled

1t viii be seen that in 1874 there was an anti

Republicans won six victories in succession
and carried the state election in presidential
years by enormous margins, 3O,Sl1 in 1876 and
