written by Gen. Harrison to father in ref

was written in the trenches before Atlanta

Harrison was not only great as a soldier, but
had heart as tender as woman's. The let
ter reads:

The Dominion Cabinet.

NEW YORK. Sept 4.-The Worlds Ottawa
correspondent telegraphs that all the mem-
bers Of the government, except Mr.. Bowel.
minister of customs, were present at the
cabinet meeting yesterday afternoon.
1t was the first meeting Of the cabinet since
President Cleveland laid his retaliatory mes
sage before Congress. The correspondent
claims to have been reliably informed that
the British government cabled to Sir John
Macdonald, requesting him to furnish the
full text Of the extent and character Of the
commercial relations which had existed be-
tween the United States and Canada since
the confederation of the British North Amer
lean provinces; also clear statement of all
remonstrances which had been made by the
United States against Canada, for the alleged
irregularities in according to United States
citizens their rights conceded by the treaty,
as well as a full explanation as to.the proba-
BILE effect on the Dominion If the proposed
retaliation measure was carried out
This information has been prepared and
was laid before the cabinet yesterday, prior
to being forwarded to the British govern
ment. Sir Johns attitude was not cordially
received by the ministers, and the meeting
was an exceptionally lively one. 1t is i'm
possible to learn what line Of campaign Sir
John proposes. but it is known that several
members of his cabinet were by no means in
accord with his suggestions.

to show finer record of what may be ac-
complished under the Republican policy In
that time. don't believe there Is county
in the United States that can show the same
condition with finer results.
As was coming here today l saw a meet
ing OF prohibitionists. Maine for the last 81
years has been under a prohibitory law. /
think the State has derived great advantage
from 1t. L think the State is far richer and
far better, that Franklin county Is far richer
and far better, because Of that law than the
State and the county would have been with
out it, but we have party now coming in
and telling us, in effect, that Maine had Bet
ter not pay any attention to prohibition un-
til we can organize national party and we
can suspend temperance in Maine, practical
ly until we convert Texas and Alabama.
That is precisely what this national prohibi-
tion party means for those who talk frankly
ayow that they intend to defeat the Re
publican party and bring the Democrat
ic party into power as Temperance
movement. [Laughter] Going to take the
Democrats in Maine to promote temperance!
[Laughter.l And this prohibition party out
side of prohibition is entering into partner
ship with the Democratic party to defeat
the Republicans, II that were possible in
Maine. to elect that sanity embodiment of
prohibition and temperance, David u. Hill,
governor Of New York, and all over the
country to stab the Republican party in the
back and in the dark, in order, they say,
that the Democratic party shall be brought
into power and then there will be reaction
against the Democrats, and by some political
process of which the working Is not yet ap-
parent, the national prohibitionist will come
into power.
Fellow citizens. the Republicans of Maine
have worked many years in aid OF temper
ance reform and will not turn back from the
good cause. But the immediate work this
year is to defend the system Of protection
and insure good wages to the American la
borer. My friends, this is the season of the
year when farm work is over. The hay crop
Is gathered. 1t Is time of leisure, picnick-
ing and excursions. l want you to make
fewer Of these than usual this week and or
ganize yourselves into committee OF the
whole, men and boys, and ladies, to give the
largest majority that Franklin county
ever gave for anybody, for Edwin G. Bur
leigh on Monday next. Great applause.l
And not simply because he is Ed
win .C. Burleigh, not simply because he Is
running Ifor the governorship of Maine,
but because the vote given to Edwin G. Bur
leigh and the majority we shall give him
ty or the other in distant State issues. Re-
member that the day after the battle of
GravelOtte one German soldier was equal to
two French soldiers, and IL we give the ma
jority we should in this State you have by
that act done as good as add 100000 to the
Republican columns in the States west Of US.
[Great applause.l
Immediately after the close of his address
Mr.. Blaine left Pennington by the special
train in which he had come and connecting
with the regular train at Brunswick he
reached his Augusta home shortly before 8

Tomorrow he speaks at Old Orchard.

sHERIDAN's MEMOIRS.
Little PhiI's Work Dedicated to His
Comrades In Arms.

NEW YORK, Sept 4-The preface of Gen,
Sheridan's memoirs is made pablic. 1t is as
follows:
When yielding to the solicitation of my
friends finally decided to write these me-
moirs, the greatest difficulty that confronted
me was that of recounting my share in the
many notable events of the last three de-
cades in which played part without en-
tering too fully into the history of these
years and, at the same time, without giving
to my own acts unmerited prominence. To
what extent have overcome the difficulties
i must leave the reader to Judge.
In offering this record, penned by my own
hand, of the events of my life and of my par
ticipation in our great struggle for national
existence, human liberty and political regu-
larity, make no pretension to literary mer-
it. The Importance of the subject matter of
my narrative is my only claim on the read
er's attention. Respectfully dedicating this
work to my comrades-in-arm during the
war of the Rebellion, leave it as a heritage
to my children and as sources of information
for the future historian.

TO the Editor of the Press: !:

10 We EuttOT W dbc 4 fcoos
A company of gentlemen discussing polit-
cal affairs a few days since expressed sur
prise that little or no mention had been
made in the newspapers of the proposed
amendment to the state constitution author
izing annual sessions of our legislature. The
Importance of the measure certainly calls for
its fullest discussion. The satisfaction of
the people at large with biennial sessions, as
now existing, warrants the belief that this
amendment will be defeated at the polls IL
its advantages and disadvantages are pre-
sented as they should be. To the average
citizen what is seems better than the old
methods to which it is proposed to return.
