Names Congressional Delegation.

The Christian Advocate of New York in
an article upon the Maine delegation in the
National House of Representatives says:
apart from the political party which
predominates in Maine, its course should
teach most of the other states an important
lesson. IL has elected ex-Speaker Reed
for the tenth ii ne to Congress; Ex-Governor
Nelson DiDgley, Jr for the eighth time (;
and Seth L. Milliken, for the seventh time.
Mr.. Boutelle also was elected for seyeral
preceding terms. A remark is attribute
to iii stinguishel orator that 'the Jour
representatives from Maine exert more in
fluence in Washington than the
thirty four from the state of New
York Certainly the cxparie nee,
acquired learning, and ability of the
resentatives must account for the great
disparity. A first term in Congress, with
rare exceptions. amounts to little. These
Maine representatives are remarkable men.
Four others as dissimilar could hardly be
found in the country"
The Advocate also makes the following
complimentary reference to the congress

"Mr Mllliken has an almost magical way
of bringing Thugs to pass for the interest
of his dis,r:c',' and is wonderfully taking

The Concord On. H. Monitor OF Octo.
Der Sta-Sena.or Chambers paper, con.
tsins fine personal tribute to Senator
William p. Frye OF this State from which
we make the following extracts:
He is the best political orator in America
His speeches are expressed better, sur
charged with more pertinent material, more
pleasingly AMI effectively delivered, than
those of any other stump speaker.
Many years ago the r publicans of New
Hampshire sent a committee to Mr.. Blaine
urging lin to speak here. This he coul
not then do, but he promised to send a good
man. He sent William p. Frye. The Re-.
publicans of this state have been sending
for Mr.. Frye ever since, and he has beer
here many times, and the Rspubl can party
of New Hampshire is under great oblgat
to him.
He spoke first, I think, at Portsmouth
and was a revelation to the people there
but has since addressed overlooking audi
ences in sll of the larger and many of the
smaller places in the state.

When Col. Robert G. Ii gersoli, IN MS
memorable speech of nomination presented

and glowing tribute, seconded the nomina-
ton.
1t is safely said that he will hold place
in the scroll of history, and IN the meme
of national fame, equal to the famous men
of New England in whose footsteps he has

opinion his illustricus name will go down
to posterity along with those of Webster

Over confidence aust be Guarded Against.
New York Tribune. J

The interview with Mr.. J. II. Manley
which we print this morning is worthy of
the sober attention of all Republicans. AS
chairman of the Republican national execu-
tive committee Mr.. Manley has exceptional
opportunities for studying the political sit
uation in all quarters, and the views which
he expresses are the opinions he has
formed after calm and full eelibera-
ton. The general outlook for Republican
success he describes as more than hopeful Z;
but he wisely calls on Republicans not to
over-estmate their own strength nor to I'M
der-estimate that of their opponents. This
advice is needed. There is danger that Re-
publicans may take their victory for granted.
Over-confdence must be guarded against
in this city, in this state, and in all other
states where the prospects of success now
seem so bright.

point upon the plate it is possible to
determine the distance of the lightning
