Not a Word fVom .loscpli L.
Smith.
Mr. Smith as yet has made no reply to
tin- letter of the Boston Journal. The
Bangor Whig and ('ourier of yesterday
said: “Front the greenback chief's wig
"tvatn no sound lifts been heard since the
“mail brought the Journal. We can im
“aginc the vigorous perplexity with which
“the veteran Scwall, as the politico-legal
“adviser at greenback headquarters, must
“he Hying around to discover or invent
“sonic reply to the disclosures. We wait
“for that reply,only suggestingthat ilodg
"ing won't do, for the Journal says that
"Mr. Smith must meet the record of his
“own hand.'’
No reply ! Has there not been ample
time for the honest (?) Joseph L. Smith to
make answer ? Is it a difficult matter, ll
the statements of the Journal are not cor
rect, for Mr. Smith to say so? lie was
ready enough to say before the letter ap
peared that lie made no attempt to sell out
his party for the (iovemorship, and why
is he so backward now that the letter has
been published in meeting it with a denial
of the charges against him if they arc not
true ?
It is no answer for the organs of the
truck-and-dieker party to fling mud at
the correspondent of the Boston
Journal, or assail Mr. Blaine with the
campaign slanders of Ih7(‘>. Resorting to
these weak devices shows quite plainly
that they have nothing else to offer in de
fence of Mr. Smith. Such a defence does
not help Mr. Smith at nil. He is the can
didate of the fusion party for (inventor of I
the State of Maine. He is charged with
having offered to sell out his party to the j
republicans last winter. The voters ofl
Maine have a right to know whether this
charge is true or talse. F.speeiallv have j
greenbaekers a right to know before they
vote for Mr. Smith again whether he of
fered to sell them out last winter.
Mr. Smith must answer or he will vir
tually be withdrawn as a candidate.
What means the following language which
appeared in the columns of the Bangor
Commercial of Thursday evening.
Advices (rom all sections of the State indi
cate that CO\ IillNOII (i.VltCKbUN will ,e

Hoes this mean that the fusionists are
contemplating the abandonment of the
< Mdtown chief 'i A few days ago the Com
mercial took down the name of (iareebm
from its columns as a (andidute for Gover
nor, now it dei lares that his vote in Pen
obscot county will be doubled I !
Ibis the Iloston Journal letter had any
thing to do with this remarkable change in
favor of Gov. Garcelon? If Mr. Smith lias
no answ er to make the meaning of the lan
guage in the < 'omuicreial is easily under
stood ; it means that he will be repudiated
it lie does not withdraw, and the fusionists
will be invited and urged to east their
votes for <Inrcelon.
The chairman of tlie greenback State
committee resigned his position a short
time ago, uud now Mr. Fogg, another
member, lias been taken by the ear and
inarched out of the committee. Any man
who is opposed to the combination duplex
machine has to resign or be booted out of
that committee. Who will be the next

Figures That Don’t Lie
A paper in Oxford county called "The
New Religion,” which devotes more of
its space to politics than religion, is high
ly delighted with Ebon E. Pillsbury’s
speech in that county in relation to State
taxes, appropriations, expenditures etc.,
and thinks it will be impossible for the
republicans to balance Pillsbury’s figures
••with the story of resumption, the South
••ern outrages, and the want ot principle
“on the part of the democrats in joining
“the greenbiickers.” It confidently as
serts also that “figures tell a true story,
“especially when they arc added up as
“tliev should be.” Now a* the editor of
The New Religion lias such great confi
dence in figures, wo call his attention to
the following article from The Honest
Truth, in which arc sonic figures which
we would like to have him examine and
give us his opinion concerning them :
After all the loud professions of economy
anil reduction of the People's burden* the
greenback-democrat ie Legislature elided by
levying n State tax *.0,000 larger than the
average lax levied by the republican Legis
latures for the four preceding years. \\ e
give the ntfleial figures m' flic annual State
tax each year for title. n years from the close
of the war in lsi'.A down to 1*70 inclusive.

ll is a source of pride to every repuliliei.li
to luok at these figures and see liovv steadily
under the good management of republican ad
ministrations t hr annual tax » as being reduced.
The average tax for the four year* pre
ceding 1*71 was IjlM'ilE.tOt.OO. and the lax
levied bv the greenback legislature was
*70,000 larger. Compare the figures. The
leader* ot the greenback and democratic par
tie- proclaimed that tliev would reduce the
State tux FOLK lU'NDItEI) TIIOI SANI)
DolXAHS. They ended by increasing the
tax far above the average tax levied bv re
publican legislatures for the fimr preceding
years.
We learn of a number of hitherto
staunch democrats in this county who say
that they cannot swallow the greenback
dose that their leaders have prepared for
them. They will, like the Penobscot
democrats, take no skunk in theirs this
year. We could give names, hut prefer
to respect the privacy of those democrats
who will throw their votes for honest
money and for national honor, instead of
with the dishonest fusion which advocates
cheating the creditors of the government
and national repudiation.—Raxtport Sen

From the New York Tribune.
l>H\Yiiing Prosperity.
The condition of the country at this time is
peculiarly encouraging. It ought to have an
important effect upon the politic:! contests of
this fall, for there is no room to deny that
the course of the republican party lias con
tributed greatly to the revival of industry anil
trade. Circumstances have favored, without
doubt. So remarkably have they favored
that one is led to remember the remark of
the venerable and devout clergyman, who
said, early in the year, when some doubts ns
to the stability of resumption were expressed :
“This is the only Nation that lias ever hou
“estly tried to keep its promise to pay legal
“tendcr notes, and the Almighty fiod will
‘•surely take care of us.” Crops of extraor
dinary abundance have now been gathered at
the West. The latest news from Minnesota
promises a yield of 40,000,0(iu bushels of
wheat for that State, and the great success of
the crop elsewhere w as assured by previous
tidings. Kvery tiling Indicates, too, that the
foreign demand for wheat w ill lie unusually
Inrge. Kilt large crops anil large sales would
bare been of small avail, if this country bud
still been running into debt to foreign nations
so that its surplus products were needed to
pay interest on its debt.
The first shipment of specie from Kurope to
New York, during the present season, was an
nounced on Tuesday. The amount, only
$200,000, w as not large, but there is a grow
ing belief that the movement w ill rapidly in
crease. This shipment was from Paris, and
the most eminent industrial statistician of
France, in an elaborate review of the com
parative failure of the crops in that country,
expresses bis belief that France will be
obliged to purchase at least 8125,000,000
worth of w heat alone, even if the great de
mand does not cause a material advance of
price. The recent severe storm in Great
Britain lias put the finishing touch to the dis
asters of the grain-growers, ami it is now be
lieved that Kngland will require at least as
much ot loreign wheat as France. In short,
exports from this country are going to be
enormous, and, in one form or another, for
eign money must come hither to pay for our
products purchased. It is no longer possible
for Knglaml and Germany to pay this country
by sending 821X1,000.0011 of bonds, as has been
done in recent years. Nor are American
railroad securities, of the kind that can
be advantageously sold here, lightly
esteemed by foreign holders. Prob
ably settlement will be made in three
ways : bv some abatement in the prices of
foreign products, to induce larger purchases;
by some sales of American railroad and other
corporate and municipal securities: and by
some shipments of specie. Happily the bank
of Knglaml now holds an unprecedented stock
of coin, and it is the feeling among the ablest
financiers of that country that considerable
exports of specie would not now be a misfor
tune. In the absence of special exertions to
I revent such a movement, it seem* likely to
grow large.
Rut money is not lacking here. The last
debt statement shows that called bonds
amounting to about fll'ii,000,000 were still
outstanding August 1. On all of these bonds
the last quarter's interest was still unpaid,
the bonds having not been surrendered, and
the latest call matured on the 21st tilt., so
that one-third of a month’s interest hail al
ready been lost on till of the bonds outstand
ing, one-half a month's interest on much the
greater part, and nearly nr quite a full month's
interest on several millions. Of course it is
obvious that the holders are still looking for
opportunities to use their money advantage
ously. either in purchase of government or <
other bonds or storks, or in connection w ith
manufacturing rommerce or milling. Rut ■
the purchase of bonds or stocks will only dis
lodge other money, which other holders'have
comfortably invested, withont essentially di
minishing the aggregate amount seeking em
ployment. An enormous buying of securi
ties is in progress daily, and yet, as every one
can see, the amount of money to be employed
in buying or otherwise is not at all diminished,
but only changed from old to new bonds.
The necessary inference is one which all
who are interested in the material prosperity
of the country may well consider. An im
mense amount of capital is waiting to find
employment in manufactures, commerce,
mining and agriculture, and in the further de
velopment of the nation's resources. Evi- ;
donee of the fact will be seen in the starting j
of mills long idle, in the opening of new
mines, factories, farm* and railroads, and in
the increasing demand for labor. The pros
perity of the country, now visibly and rapid
ly growing, will afford employment not only
for all the capital disengaged by the splendid
success of refunding operations, but for all
that our excess of exports may bring from
other lands.

On the evening of the fith inst., we were

venerable Senator (’handler of Michigan. \
very large and enthusiastic audience greeted
him and listened to a most telling speech by
the Senator, who explained the term “Fellow

citizen in Maine, as in Michigan, lie sui I :
That the republican party which wastwent)-five
years old. hud its birth under Ood for tin* sal
vation of our country. It has accomplished
more in that time than any other party had
done in a thousand years. It has prevented
slavery from entering the territories, liberated
the slavia in the Slates, preserved the I * ti ion.
and redeemed every pledge it has made to the
nation, and yet some say it has lived long
enough and ought to die. It ever a party
was prepared to die*, it is the republican par

publicanism and vote the black republican
ticket, as it is for Southern rebels to come
North and talk secession.
A party has sprung up within two or three
years calling itself the greenback party, but
they have not the honor of being parent ofj
that party, for it was born long before, and
said the venerable Senator, when it was
horn I was there, and for four long
years acted as wet and dry nurse to the
child. and it was not born until
our last dollar was drawn from the !
treasury, until our credit was gone, and
in that fearful emergency the inquiry w as.
w Igit can we do? The people were asked if
they would pledge their lands and storks, !
and the answer came back, anything and
everything, and then the first greenback w as
issued, credit w as established, the war went
on and the I’nion was saved.
The bonds. It is demanded that we call
them in and stop the interest, and pay in
greenbacks, payable in nothing and at no fu
ture time. Hut our bonds arc held in Kng
land. France. Germany. Italy and among all
civilized nations. Break our agreement w ith
them and along the coast of Maine would
come thundering the navies of Kngland. fol
lowed by the navies of France, (•erniany.
Italy ami other nations, demanding the fulfil
ment of our agreement. But the greenhack
er proposes to step forw ard and say to these
nations your money is ready for you. and
present them with greenbacks, payable in
nothing at no future time; and the English
bondholder asks what is this? and is answered
money. But the bondholder examines it and
says, this does not look like money, and it
isn’t money, this is not the way we do busi
ness, pay us according to agreement, or we
w ill lay your cities in ashes, and so say all the
rest.
The demand is, w ind up your National
Banks, but when you do this you deprive the
government of sixteen millions of dollars an
nually, for this is the amount paid by the Na
tional Banks annually into the I nited States
Treasury.
The party calling itself greenback is com
munistic, and its head is Brick Pomeroy, who
advocated the assassination of President
Lincoln long before that act was committed.

OAK WAV TU ECONOMIZE.
Many a poor man, if required to account
tor the manner in which he has expended his
income, would find hills of his family physi
cian for “medical services” among the lend
ing items. In seven eases out of ten, acute
diseases are the result of some neglected
chronic disease. Thus, fevers invariably re
sult front diseased conditions of the blood and
liver, and a timely use of alterative, or blood
purifying, and carthatic remedies would have
averted the prostrating illness, that often
leaves the system irreparably injured. Dr.
Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery and Pleas
ant Purgative Pellets are the best alterative
and cathartic medirines yet compounded. Full
directions arc given for administering them,
together with an accurate description of the
symptoms demanding their use. They will
not cure all human ills (as some medicines
are advertised to do), but they w ill cure the
diseases for which they are compounded ami
recommended.
