GENERAL ROBERTS' DEFENDERS.
General Roberts is extremely unfortu
nate in his friends. Upon one hand, on the
same ticket with himself, is Marcellus
Emery, whose paper congratulated the I
rebels upon their victory when they cap
tured Fort Sumpter, and was so disloyal '
that some of the democrats told him in the
Portland Convention he ought to have
been hung to the lamp-posts for his shame- 1
less course. On the other hand is Lbcn
Pillsbury' with the Maine Standard, extol- '
ing Roberts as a soldier and patriot. Now '
we wish Mr. Pillsbury to answer the fol- '
lowing questions,—
Did you not declare the war a needless, >
wicked and unholy war? 1
Did you not stigmatize those who en- 1
listed in the Union army as “Lincoln’s ;
hirelings ?”
Did you not exert your influence to pre
vent enlistments and to make the draft as
odious as possible ?
Did you not rejoice over rebel victories
and laugh and sneer over disasters to the
Union armies?
Were you not the editor of the demo
cratic paper in the only county in the State
which resisted the draft by force so that
United States troops had to be sent to
crush out the rioters, and did not you aid
to stir up that riot ?
Did you ever say a cheering word for
the Union cause while the war was iu pro
gress, or a word of commendation for its
gallant defenders ?
In short were you not a copperhead of
the most poisonous kind ?
After these questions have been proper
ly answered the encomiums of the Maine
Standard for General Roberts may be esti
mated at their proper value. Those who
were in the Union army will find the slaver
of such a sheet as poisonous as the venom
of a copperhead. To be defended by the
Standard for loyalty or bravery as a soldier
is about the most damaging thing to the
character of a man who was in the Union
army that eould happen to it. If General
Roberts has any friends they had better
call off the Standard front its extraordina
» J SwSCUvv V* •*•'/ M1M MUU OUiUlbl Sllljf.
Let Emery and Pillsbury retire to the
shade where they ought to be.
1599,903,990 43.
The Standard insists that the expendi
tures for the year ending June 30, 1309,
eight months of President Johnson, four
months of President Grant, amounts to the
above enormous aggregate—and it refers
to the U. S. Treasurer’s Report as its au
thority for the statement.
If it were so, will the Standard please
tell us where the money came from ? The
entire revenues of the country for that year
were far below $100,000,000, and we uever
heard that Johnson's last eight months had
increased the debt over two hundred mil
lions ; but such, in effect, is the statement
of the Standard.
The whole blunder of our neighbor—
egregious und laughable as it is—comes
from his ignorance of the mode of book
keepiug in the Treasury of the Uuiled
States. Ever}' thing that goes out is
charged against the United States; every
new greenback to replace an old and worn
out one; every new national bank note
issued for the same purpose; and every
thing tba* comes in is in like manner cred
ited. So that the Standard will find that
the same year in which the expenditures
were $099,903,990.43, the receipts, reck
oned in the same way, were over six hun
dred millions; whereas the actual revenues
from CWuiFin and Internal Ret enues were.
as we have stated, far below four hundred
millions. There is not a female clerk, or
scarcely an errand boy in the U. S. Treas
ury, that would not laugh at the blunder
of the Standard.
POLITICAL.
At the republican county convention in
Sagadahoc yesterday, Mr. J. \V. Spauld
ing of Richmond was nominated for Sen
ator.
The Senators nominated in the republi
can conventions of the following counties
are understood to favor the election of Lot
M. Morrill to the Senate :
Washington, Hancock, Waldo, Somer
set, Kennebec, Androscoggin, Franklin,
Oxford and York.
The following favor the election of
Chamberlain: Cumberland, Piscataquis.
The county ot Penobscot is divided and
Sagadahoc is uncommitted.
The Republican County Conventions
held in Androscoggin and Washington on
Wednesday, both instructed their Senators
to support Hon. Lot M. Morrill for United
States Senator.
The candidates forUnited States Senator
to be elected in Michigan next winter are
Jacob M. Howard, William A. Howard,
and Thomas W. Ferny.
The German and Irish voters of San
Francisco threaten to unite for the defeat
of the Democratic ticket.
Ex-Senator Hendricks has been “dined”
by his Boston friends. It is thought that
he stands about as well tor getting the
Democratic nomination for the next Presi
dency as any man in his party.
The democrats of the third Ohio district
j have nominated Hon. Lewis D. Campbell
to run against Mr. Schenck.
The Democratic leaders of South C'uio
lina are bitter in their denunciations of
Hon. James L. Orr for his recent letter.
To prove at once their ingratitude and in
sincerity, w hile they assail Colonel Orr for
supporting a carpet-bagger for Governor
in the person of General Scott, the Repub
lican candidate for that office, they them
selves champion Judge Carpenter, a very
recent importation from Illinois, for the
same position.
WAR SPLISTERS.
The French sailors are being armed
with dirks for boarding purposes, and
with this object a number of old double
edged bayonets are beingcutdown for the
supply of the navy.
The Prussian army has received an un
pleasantly suggestive though practical
order. Every man of the regiments or
dered for active service has to wear round
his neck, underneath his clothes, a ticket
with a number corresponding to one stand
ing against his name in the lists, in order
that this might be ascertained in case of
death, without delay; while the officers
are furnished with diaries containing their
designations in French as well as German.
The superb navy'of France has not been
able to render the slightest service to its
creator during the crisis of his Empire's
existence. At the outbreak ot the war,
great things were expected from the
French fleets, and the Empress Eugenie
read a grandiose address to the officers
and sailors of the navy at Cherbourg,
just as the vessels were about to sail on
their mission of ravaging the Prussian
coast, bombarding and seizing the Prus
sian cities on the German Ocean and the
Baltic, destroying the Prussian iron-dads,
and conveying a military force destined to
advance from the seaboard upon Berlin.
But the French fleets have not thus far
done any thing either against the Prussian
coast cities or the Prussian mcn-of-war.
A correspondent says: “You must not
expect a republican revolution in Paris.
From all 1 can gather, the movement will
be in an Orleanist sense. It seems most
probable. No one believes the Emperor
can ever return to Paris with safety.
Some affirm that he would not scruple to
make a hasty peace with Prussia, and to
return escorted by King Frederick William
and his cohorts, proclaiming that his ac
tion had been paralyzed by internal dis
sension, hence his defeat. I give you
these as rumors. One thing is certain ; he
has failed ignominiously as a general, and
can never again hold the same position in
public estimation which the hollow glory
of Solferino accorded to him.”
The Prefect of the Seine appeals to
the Parisians as follows: “The news
from the army imposes on you a great
duty; the government invites you to ac
complish it. We have to guard our hon
or, to preserve it intact, anil to remain
worthy of our past and of ourselves. Fel
low citizens, the peril is not imminent,
but it is necessary that our lortiflcations
should be in a good condition and that out
army should know that we are uprisen be
hind it. From to-morrow books will be
opened at the Hotel de Ville and in the
twenty rnairlcs of Paris. Let all those
men not called by the new decree to form
part of the National Guard, and who are
willing to aid in the earth and masonry
works necessary for the common defence,
come forward immediately and enter their
names.”
A woman lately carried a child to a London
hospital—-a child in a nearly dying state—and
the doctor elicited from her that she had been
administering spiders to it as a cure for
whooping cough. Not many centuries ago
insects and reptiles were used as remedies in
regular medical practice.
The Vorth German Lloyds announce that
in con.cqcence of the success of the German
arms their steamers will soon be able to re
sume their trips to America, and a time table
for their departure will soon be issued.
There are indications in Wall street of the
formation of another gold pool, similar to
that which exploded on Hluck Friday, in Sep
tember last, although, perhaps, not so vast in
extent. >
_ . I
COUNT BISMARCK.
‘•The meeting of the German Federal
Parliament,” says the New York Tribune,
“has given occasion to many scenes o(
profound interest. In the session of the
second day Count Bismarck presented a
summary view of the situation, comment
ing with caustic severity on the alleged
causes of the war, and exposing the de
ceitful pretensions of the Imperial Gov
ernment. A spectator of the proceedi ngs
of the occasion gives a dramatic sketch of
Bismarck in a letter to a Vienna journal.”
“The President had already closed the ses
sion, and the members were about leaving
the hall, when he rose, and requested them
to again take their seats, as the Chancellor ol
the Confederation had a communication to
make to the House. A general murmur was
heard, and the crowd pressed into the galler
ies, in order to gain a better sight. Bismarck
then made bis appearance, his cheeks pale
and deep furrows under his eyes. A broad
shouldered, strong-boned figure, in the uni
form of a cavalry Colonel, dark blue with yel
low. The yellow of his uniform collar con
trasted strangely with the deadly paleness of
his face. He took bis place at the left of the
President. Near him lay a black leather
portfolio. In this was concealed the fate of
two nations. He searched for the key,-and
opened the little brass lock. Then he drew
out a few sheets of paper—sheets in which
lay the dreadful war that was to destroy so
many thousand lives, and bring so many fam
ilies to ruin. He gave a hasty glance at the
first and then began to speak. There was
the stillness of death. Count Bismarck is no ,
oremr. in the usual sense of the term. He
speaks without fluency and with little pathos,
lie has nothing less at heart than this. His
words come out in a broken forth. He ex
presses what he has to say only in short sen
tences. He often hesitates. He makes
pauses, and then hesitates again. His lan
guage never flows in a living stream. His
speeches, which read ns if they came from a
single gush, are always fragmentary when
they fall from his lips. You see that he la
bors as he speaks. One who heard him to
day for the first time might believe that the
burden of the feelings that weighed upon his
heart almost took away l>i» breath, that ocry
word was wrung out from the depths of his
inner man. Yet he always speaks in this
way. While he expresses himself witli the
utmost facility in private conversation, his
language becomes slow «nu difficult as soon
as be addresses a public assembly. What lie
said to the excited and eager members of the i
H use is already known to every one that j
reads the newspapers. It was the keenest
and most subtle criticism of the pretenses on j
which the French Government had gone to j
war. A slight vein of irony ran through
his whole discourse, the effect of which on 1
the hearer was heightened by the subdued
tone of its delivery. Not a line in the coun
tenance of the Chancellor was altered, as lie |
took up one sheet after another, and declared ;
its contents. No mocking contradiction of
the mouth accompanied the points which he j
made against the cabinet ot Napoleon. No !
trace of approval or of disapproval betrayed
his personal interest in the subject. In the
same quiet business-like manner, he called
the declaration of war. “the only official com
munication which he had received from the
Imperial Government in the whole affair;"
analyzed the private negotiations which had
been entertained between the ministry and the
French embassador; characterized the inter
view at' Ems ; and. finally, referred to the tin- I
successful attempt at mediation by England.
The last sheet was the French original of the
declaration of war—a piece of paper like all
the rest—distinguished by no special mark—
as Bismarck there took it in his hand,—not
even by the slightest change in his features,
or the least wavering of his tone; he coldly
remarked that the text of the declaration of
war was already known in the German trans
lation, and asked the 1‘arliamentto excuse him
for the unfinished sketch of a circular to the
foreign ministers; this was the last word of
Bismarck in the session, at which no one could
have been present, without being penetrated
with the power and wide bearing of acts.which
it took but twenty or thirty minutes, and six
or seven pieces of paper, to make unchange
able. We who have hitherto become acquaint
ed with historical documents only after they
have grown mouldy in the archives, here had
them before us in their fresh odor and their
modern aspect. There is nothing there to be
seen of sentiment or enthusiasm; all this
conies afterward—after the flow of tears and
blood. And of these, we shall this time have
no lack."
LETTER FROM BELFAST.
August 24th, 1870.
To the Editor of the Kennebec Journal:
1 must keep my promise to write you occa
sionally of matters anil tilings hereabout,
though the drouth is heavy and the dust deep.
Last week was convention week for Waldo
county. Both parties held their conventions
here and nominated county officers. The re
publicans nominated fur Senators, Thus. W.
Vose of Winterport, and Capt N. Smart of
Searsmont. Clerk of Courts, W. G. Frye of
Belfast. Sheriff, Irvin Calderwood of Bel
fast. Treasurer, Geo. McDonald of Belfast.
Commissioner, Stephen Strout of Freedom.
Messrs. Calderwood and McDonald were re
nominated. Mr. Vose, who represented his
town in the legislature last winter, is one of
the rising and popular young men ol the
county, and will make a good Senator. Capt.
Smart was on the Valuation Committee from
this district last winter. Mr. Frye is a gen
tleman of clerical habits, and will make an
cAceiient Cierk. lie has been deputy collec
tor in the Custom House here for the last ten
or fifteen years.
The democrats nominated for senators,
Ezra Cox of Liberty, and C. S. Fletcher of
Stockton. Sheriff, U. llayford of Belfast.
Clerk of Courts, F. A. Dickey of North port.
Treasurer, E. Salmond of Belfast. Commis
sioner, Zenaa Downs of Swanville. It was a
convention of the regular old true-blue or
thodox style—plenty of whiskey and wrang
ling. Most of the session was spent in quar
relling between the wings of the party, here
headed by the Journal man Simpson, and Dr.
Moody, one of the old guard. It was decided
by allowing both delegates to participate.
liailroad matters arc looking well. Some
fourteen miles of the road is gravelled, and
only twelve more remains to be laid with
rails. Except one ledge, the grading will be
finished this week. A night train for gravel
ling has just bcyii put on.
El-on, who was perambulating in your sec
tion lately, is exercising his muscle by walk
ing from liockland to this city and return
daily, a distance of about 30 utiles. Pity that
so much muscle could'nt be put to some prac
tical use. There is plenty of room for it on
our railroad.
Waldo County Fair and Cattle Show is held
on the Park here, October 4th, 5th and 6th.
Board of Agriculture meets at Dover next
week. O. E. Brackett of this city, is the
member from Waldo county. The Unity or
North Waldo Fair is held same week as ours.
Base bull games are frequent here, and our
boys keep in practice. The State Tourna
ment is not yet altxed fact, as it is understood
your Dirigos refuse to comedown and give
I : the other clubs a chance to bat with them.
A new ship of 1000 tons, called the “Alice
• Buck,” is to be launched here next Saturday.
Two more vessels arc on the stocks.
Methodist Campmecting at Northport, just
below this city, commences next Monday and
continues a week. An admission fee of ten
cents is charged for persons and twenty cents
for teams.
1 he drouth is getting to be severe, and
crops, fields and stock are suffering for rain.
The wells and streams are getting low and
dry, ami the roads and streets are so dusty,
! that travelling is very disagreeable.
According to the census taker’s report, this
city has 1438 voters, 5280 inhabitants, 112(>
families, 957 houses, and 304 larnis. Most of
the towns in Waldo have lost a little in popu- 1
i lation during the last decade.
Yours dustily, j

LETTER FROM XFW nnr-^xswlCK. \
Hu iimokd St Agios, N B., Aug. 19,',0.
Dear Jovrnai..—I se>- oy your paper.pri it
i ed several days since, that your Mt. Desert
I correspondent had got home, distributed his
■ fish, &c. llow did he get home? He had no
monev ! Did he give all his fish away, if so
what is he no”- living upon himself ?
Wo spent last Sabbath in Maehias. attended
i meeting. The next day took the stage for
Pembroke, some 25 miles east. Here we
visited the well known extensive iron works,
which when running on extra full time turn
out thirty-eight tons of finished iron, besides
some 5000 pounds of bolts and rivets and 30,
(k)0 pounds of nails every twenty-four hours,
employing 300 men. running both night and
day. We next v isited Kastport; took the
steamer up the Ht. Croix t» Calais, crossed
over to St. Stephens, took the cats and came
to this place. Calais and St. Stephens for
business and rive might favorably be compar
ed to Augusta and llallowell. We do not
mean to say our llallowell neighbors are so
much behind the times as our Provincial
friends are. We took the ears at St. Stephens
this morning and arrived here about six this
afternoon. As we had nothing but American
money, and only twenty-five cents of that,
they very kindly tie nd-headed us through.—
We were not aware before how they hold our
money in estimation in the Provinces. A
newsboy came on board the cars to day with
some St. John's papers to sell. We wanted
one very much and asked the price, he re
plied. two cents ; we eagerly thrust our hand
into our pocket and handed him a two-cent
piece, when he quickly turned without letting
us have a paper, and indignantly said, “That
no good, that Yankee money.” We thought
next time we went to buy anything we would
be on the safe side; so, soon alter this, at a
station, we stepped into a shop to buy some
little thing, the price of which the lady told
us was ten cents. We askid, “Do you take
American money ?” The reply was “Yes.”
We thought we were all right, so handed out
two of our ftve-cent pieces. She grinned and
looked a little green, or ns if she thought we
were, when we replied, “here are two five-cent
pieces, your price.” She replied, “they only
pass for three cents here;” so we hand in
pocket again, and as luck would have it found
two two-cent pieces, and added to it, when
she replied, “they only pass for one cent.”—
We gave up, and by emptying our pockets en
tire, paid her bill and took the cars a wiser if
not a better Yankee. M.

A friend furnishes the Bangor Whig the
following extracts from legislative records,
showing that several men well known in the
State and country were not always known
under the names they now bear :
In 1828. “John Wilson of Brewer was al
lowed to take the name of John Drisco Wil
son.”
In 1821, “Washington Stanley of Winthrop
was allowed to take the name of George
Washington Stanley.”
In 1825, “Ezra St. John Smith of Kumford
was allowed to take the name of St. John
Silt ith.”
In 182", “Peaslee Morrill, third, of Dear
born, in the county of Kennebec, was alluw
lowed to take the name of Anson Peaslee
Morrill.”
The Lewiston Journal regrets to hear of the
death in Brooklyn, X. Y., a few days since,
of J. W. Pmnpilly, Esq., whose father is one
of the best known and most highly Tespected
citizens of Auburn. The deceased was a
graduate of Waterville College and a gentle
man of high culture and great energy. In a
few years he had amassed quite a fortune in
Brooklyn. The father of the deceased lies
seriously ill in Auburn.
The Calais Advertiser says that on Thurs
day the body of Everett Holmes was found at
the Union Mills Itoom in that town. He was
j missed eariy iast winter and when last heard
| from he went into Messrs. Gates and Went
worth's mill. The body was identified by the
j clothing and contents of the pockets. He was
about 18 years of age.
There was a town meeting in Lisbon, Tues
day, to consider the question of exempting
! from taxation the property of N. W. Farwell,
: Esq., in that town. It was voted to exempt
i from taxation the mill and property on the
' upper dam for five years, and the conternplat
I ed improvements on the lower dam for ten
! years.
The Journal says that the high school build
ing in Gardiner is approaching completion, the
brick work being up to the top of the second
story windows. It is most substantially and
thoroughly built thus far, and does credit to
the skill of the workmen. Parties from Port
land are expected to put on the tin roofing.
The Gardiner Journal says that Mr.
James A. Cox, of that city, made a misstep
while going down stairs one day last week,
by which he lamed his back so severely as to
confine him to the house several days.
The Transcript says a little three-year old
of that city, who had heard considerable pro
fanity in the kitchen, came to his brother the j
other day with the inquiry, “What is God’s
middle name—it it damn?" ,
The Ellswurth high school will begin the ;
first of September and will be under the !
charge of Mr. Geo. L. Farnum a recent grad- j
1 uate of Colby.

Mr. Lewis Dunce lias shown the Portland
Argus, a piece of the tree from which the last

the Odd Fellow* of California and there is no
doubt of its genuineness. It appears to be
walnut and is very nicely polished.
