UNION NOMINATION.
FOR GOVERNOR,
SAMUEL CONY.
The Convention—the Crowd—the C'andi·
date—the Confidence ot the People.
The recent Union State Convention at Ban
gor was in many respects a remarkable one.
No similar gathering of a delegate conven
tion has ever begun to compare with it in
numbers or in tho weight of cliaractcr which
it represented. It was a noble outpouring of
the loyal men of the State, forgetful of all past
differences, and determined to vindicate the
honor of the State and to bury copperhead
ism, and all that opposes the authority of the
Government in its efforts to put down the re
bellion and intestine war, in one common
grave. The basis of representation adopted
by the State Committee was such as to allow
of a very large convention, and then the qual
ity of the weather, the season of the year and
the accomodating spirit exhibited by railroad
and steamboat managers, added to the patri
otic impulses of the people of the State, all
combined to make this the largest and most
august and commanding assemblage ever con
vened in the State in response to a political
call. We confess to a most agreeable sur
prise in the personnel of the . convention.
We supposed a few of the loyal Democrats of
the last-year and the year before, would be
found there, but we were not prepared to
meet ar.d greet them in such large numbers.
There we met men whom we had known for'
long years only as democrats—whom we had
Ae loot Hamnfrntin rnnvr>ntinn wo PVPr
attended, and of whose disconnection from
that party we had never heard until we re
ceived the gratifying announcement from
their own lips. There was Col. Porter, an old
democratic war-horse of Penobscot; Jewctt of
Waldo, the honest, zealous, impetuous, invin
cible Jewett, who in the Dana Convention at
Augusta in 1801, when the stars and stripes
were sneered at as he was speaking, off coat,
rolled up sleeves, and exclaimed that he was
aa ready and as willing to die In defending
that flag's honor against rebels in Maine as on
the "sacred soil" of Virginia; Sprague and
Starr of Knox, whose names have been famil
iar as household words in democratic cir
cle* ; Converse of Lincoln, a gentlemanly,
courteous, dignified and straight-forward
leader of that county in days past ; Dr. Simon
ton of Waldo, who was one of the Breckin
ridge leaders in 1800; Ililliard of Penobscot,
formerly in the same boat with Simotiton ; Mc
Cobb of Cumberland, who has been petted by
the democracy of tills city, and borne their
flag on to victory ; Strickland of Androscog
gin,whose real has been known and com
mended In all the ehurches of the democratic
faith, and last, though not least,Cony of Ken
nebec, who has received a full share of hon
ors from the Democratic party in its better
days, when honesty was a commendation, and
who never betrayed a trust, dishonered him
self, or embezzeled the funds placed in his cus
tody, besides hosts of others whose names we
fiUf-TP rfK1"' 1° enumerate, all ofwhom, real
words—Mr.rff!oÎkfte^tfiîKWru£T>të»<!fit<lÇT'A
■If In our a flairs there can be but two parties,
patriots and traitors, have wisely determined
to combine their efforts -alth those of other
loyal mep, and stand shoulder to shoulder with
. those who give an unconditional support to
the Union and an unwavering and persistent
support to all the measures of the Govern
ment necessary to maintain its authority, to
defend lta flag, to crush out rebellion and to
bring the leaders in the present revolt to prop
er and exemplary punishment.
We have attended a good many conventions
heretofore, but we have never been in one char
acterised by such perlect good feeling and
unanimity of purpose. We have known dem
ocratic candidates nominated by acclamation
to conceal divisions, the movers being afraid
to let the ballot-box tell its own story, but we
have never known a convention in which,
with diversity of views relating to candidates,
all appeared so anxious to know and do only
what would give the greateat success to efforts
to bring all loyal men into perlect harmony.
It was in the exercise of this spirit that Ab
ner Coblbn—as honest a chief magistrate
as ever filled the executive chair of the State,
and a man of undisputed business capacity—
nobly and patriotically declined allowing his
name to form any barrier to the most perfect
unity, and waiving all priority and precedence
wished to bo regarded oil a perfect equality
with other and untried men.
It was evident before the convention was
called to order, that there was a wide spread
disposition to so act as to place the Statu in
line with Ohio and other loyal states, and to
bring forward a man whose antecedents should
afford evidence of the sincerity of the propos
al to know no difference between loyal men
on account of previous political affiliations.
We are confident this feeling was not in res
ponse to any demand, expressed or implied,
on the part of loyal democrats. The loyal
democrats who had come into the convention
came as brothers iu a common cause, asking
no special consideration, but ready to act in
harmony with and to sustain the doings of the
convention. They came as men of honor, de
manding no high rank, no front seat, no con
spicuous position ; not asking to have any flag
■truck or lowered to accommodate them, but
a· patriots who meant to make their blows tell
in fighting rebellion and rebellion's sympathiz
er», and they found men who were willing to
meet them on the broad platform of patriot
ism and progress, and to share with them the
jhrtunes as well as misfortunes of a common
cause. ψ

Bangor never had her capacity to "take in"'
strangers more thoroughly tested. The hotel
accommodations were exhausted the day be
fore the convention assembled. When the
long train of cars from the wyst arrived the
multitude of passengers—mostly delegates—
made a dash for the Bangor House, whose am
ple rooms had been all taken up. We were of
a large company that made as short a cut as
possible for the Exchange, not doubting that
in its broad dimensions would be found pleuty
of vacant lots. But it was no go. All was
crammed full, and sorrowfully did tile cadav
erous and dusty crowd turn away to And ac
commodations at less pretentious houses. The
Franklin and the Dwinel were sought and
found—crowdid. With live others from this
city and Wiseasset, we dropped hi to a good
looking house that shall be nameless, and were
relieved of all anxiety and of all fear of being
obliged to sleep on some friendly doorstep or
in some hospitable front yard, when the land
lord said he would give us coto for twenty If
desired. Alter goiug through the forais of
eating a «upper which could not be furnished
except in shreds and bits, with tea that plaiuly
revealed the color of the bottom of the cups—
for which we paid fifty cents—we drifted to
the Bangor House, and were fortunate enough
to find accommodations there—on a lounge—
and were not long in transferring our collaps
ed carpet bag to that commodious establish
ment. It was lucky — for ourself — for we
found the next morning that those who had
remained had not only fought but bled for
their rights, and that more delegates were
found in their room than they had bargained
for. Our esteemed friend, the Collector of
Wiscasset, not having the blood to spare, arose
from his bed, struck a light, and found that
his couch was literally alive with the biggest
kind of bugs that ever congregated to do hon
or to a stranger. He called the landlord
pointed out the locality of the invading foe,
and told him he could not sleep amid so many
dangers. The landlord comprehended the
difficulty at once, and as he prepared to
change our friend's base of operations, he was
heard to remark—"Very strange, but some
people never can emlure buy» !"
Wednesday at ten o'clock a long special
train came in from the west, with large dele
gations from the Kennebec, attended by the
Gardiner Band, which did much throughout
the day to add to the interest of the occasion.
Norombega was crowded to its utmost capaci
ty ; the heat was intense ; patriotism and mer
cury were at a high figure, and the proceed
ings moved forward with a harmony unbroken
by a single ripple.
TIIE CAKDinATE.
SAMUEL. CONY, nominated for Governor
by a unanimity almost unparalled, is a gentle
man too well known to the people of the state
to need a word from us. He has l>een a life
long Democrat, was a zealous friend ol Doug
las and stood by the gallant Jameson, but his
loyalty is of the most unconditional and un
compromising character. Last fall he was
elected to the legislature by the most loyal
men of Augusta, against the copperhead nom
inations, and in all his acts he harmonised
with the loyal men of the house. He has held
many offices of responsibility with credit to
himself and honor to the state, is a business
man of the fiijt order, luis a good educatiju,
is gentlemanly in his deportment, urbane in
manners, a man of the people, in sympathy
with the great instincts of patriotism, and his
name will command a heavy vote from the
people of Maine, and carry terror and dismay
into the camp of the enemy.
CONFII>KNCE OK TIIB PEOPLE.
The spirit of the convention was unmistak
ble. All was harmony, the omen of success.
Gov. Coburn had hosts of friends — he has
them to-day. Those who voted against hiin
did so froai no feeling of hostility to him, but
because they could not avoid the conviction,
all things considered, that it was best to go
into the canvass with a new man. Of the
more than 1200 men in that convention every
one believes in success as much as he believes
in his personal existence. Confidence was
never stronger. Samuel Cosy will be the
next Governor of Maine, elected by an over
whelming vote, so surely as he lives till the
time for inauguration. Mark that.
The convention adjourned in the best of
■ spirits, the whistle sounded for the special
train, the crowd rushed to the depot, ten large
cars were soon packed full, and as fast ae
steam could carry them, the western dele
gates hastened to their homes. The train for
this city arrived at 1 o'clock A. M., the pas
sengers having eaten nothing since dinner the
previous day, with the exception of a perfect
cleaning out which they gave to Mr. Fields at
the Brunswick depot refreshment rooms, who
r* - ———y —
found it less trouble, îh.m αίΥί>Γ Uwir rloiiartim,
to take an account of stock. They left him
with empty dishes, but with full pockets.
Decision of the Secretary ol the Treasury.
Charges for the transportation of goods
from the Interior of the country by rail road
or water carriage, incurred prior to the
time of exportation, cannot be added to the
value of the goods for the purpose of establish
ing the dutiable value.
The usital and legal rate of commissions on
merchandise for Great Britain lias been de
cided in the United States Circuit Court of
New York to be one and a half per cent, and
that of commissions on merchandise for Conti
nental Europe, except Paris, to be two per
cent.
The following decisions have been made on
appeals, which we give as interesting to our
bti&ine&e int'ii.
Tkkasuby Department, I
June 2. lHtve. I
Sir;—N.J. Miller has appealed from your
decision assessing duly at the rate of :i5 per
cent, under section 1:1 oltlie Tariff Act of July
14, 1802. on certain 'Tine Headings" imported
by iiiin, and claims the "free entry of the same
as a product of lumber of the Province of New
Brunswick manufactured iu whole, except by
saws, and a hole formed by a bit for the pur
pose of inserting a dowel to hold the small
pieces together of which the head is compos
ed: no instrument or machinery having been
used in making the heading except a saw und
a bit."
By Treasury Regulation, article Ifcil, und or
the Reciprocity Treaty between the United
States and Great Britain, concluded June 5,
1854, articles of woodj entered under these
(timber and lumber) or any other designations,
remain liable to duty under the existiug tariff
if manufactured iu whole or in part by plan
ing, shaving, turning, splitting, or riving, or
uuy process of manufacture oilier than rough
iiewing or sawing.
The admission on the part of the appellant
that holes are l>ored and dowels inserted, very
clearly establishes that the " Fine Headings"
in question are governed by the above quoted
egulation, aud consequently subject to duty
ut the rate of ίΐΰ per cent, under section 13 of
the Tariff Act of July 14, lHti2, which imposes
that duty "manufactures of wood, or of which
wood is the chief component part not otherwise
provided for." Your decision is hereby af
llnned. I am, very respectfully,

SlK—Mr. George S. Hunt has appealed from
your decision assessing duty, at the rate of
une dollar per pound and ten percent, ad valo
rem, under section 1 of the tariff act of July
14, 1802, on certain cigars imported by him iu
the bark St. Jagofrom Uavaua.and claims that
the cigars in questiou cost in part $1'.) and in
part $20 per thousand, aud are entitled to eu

twenty dollars, aud are subject to a duty of
uighty cents per pound, aud ten per centum

It appears by the invoices that the dutiable
charge» are not iucluded in the priées named.
These charges, however, together with the
•xport duty, Jand| the usual charge for coin
nission, must be added lo the total amount of

According to this rule, the Cigars in both
instances are properly valued at over *20 per
thousand.
Your decision is hereby atllrined.
I am, very respectfully,

The Invasion of Pennsylvania.
Two weeks and more have passed away,
since I^ee's cavalry made their appearance
near Chambersburg. Since that time, the
campaign has been taking form. The Army
of Virginia lies near Chambersburg, like a huge
centipede with feelers extending in every di
rection. The immediate purpose of the enemy
is not clear, but the result he seeks is unques
tionably, not pillage and destruction of towns,
but victory over the Army of the Potomac,
which is moving steadily up through Maryland
to meet him. It is a heavy stake that is played
for now, and the moves are deliberate and
slow.
The crisis is undoubtedly grave. There are
are those who see in the swiftly approaching
future nothing but disaster and humiliation
aud national ruin. They are few. The spirit
of the nation at large is admirably lirm. There
is danger, but there is courage which rises to
meet it, and sees that only through it lies the
way to safety and honor. Where Lee lies
now, cut off from his base of supplies at Rich
mond, dependent upon his foraging parties for
subsistence, his stores of ammunition daily
wasting, every skirmish weakens him and
strengthens his antagonist. It is now, while
the Army of the Potomac, holds Lee in
check, that the minute men of Pennsylva
nia may be of the greatest service. Eve
ry soldier, who straggles from the Southern
lines should be shot. Every foraging party
should be beset, every supply train attacked.
All the countless annoyances, which a resolute
people can indict upon an invading army,
should be put in practice. They should Hud
Pennsylvania a beehive to disturb. This is
the kind of duty, which the citizen soldiery of
the State should be called on to perform.
They should not be kept in intrenchments ;
least of all should they bo set in the Held
against veteran troops. Let them cut off the
enemy's supplies and draw his fire day by day,
while the| Army of the Potomac seizes the
fit opportunity to finish the work.
It is not only the army in the field and the
people of the invaded State, who should move
now. The invasion of Pennsylvania touches
every loyal State. If we are not to send for
ward troops now, at least let us have them
ready. Vieksburg totters to its fall. Kose
crans presses forward upon the center of the
long line. Let no delay, no unreadiness here
in New England, in Maine, endanger the
sacred cause of the nation.
Resolutions of the Union State Conven
tion.
Owing to the lateness of the hour when the
proceedings of the State Convention came to
hand we were compelled in our yesterday
morning's issue to omit the following, which
should have followed the record of the nomi
nation.
Mr. Oilman, of Cumberland, from the Com
mittee on Resolutions, reported the following
which were adopted unanimously, and were
rapturously applauded :
1 Hesolred, That in this critical and momentous pe
riod of the country'* history, it in the solemn duty of
all loyal and patriotic citizens, to take a linn and un
equivocal position in favor of the National Adminis
tration iu conducting the war against the Rebellion
and vindicating the authority of the Union through
out its eutire domain.
2 Heëolrrd, That in sustaining the National au
thorities, iu this war lor the salvation of the Union
and tin· rights of man. we make no frivolous or dis
organizing opposition to the policy aud measures of
the Government, but unite as one man, in sustaining
its civil aud military policy and measures, without
qualification or reservation, and upon this issue,
there can be but two parties—patriots iu favor and
traitors oppoted.
3 Rtêotrud, That those assemblages of Northern
citizens who, wishing to make a diversion in favor of
the rebellion, have feigned excessive indignation at
the tew arrests of persons engaged in discouraging
the organization of a military Ibrce to defend the
Constitution, while they have expressed no execra
tion again*t the Joe now imading the tree States,
and commiseration for our fellow-citizen· who have
been robbed of their property and driven from their
homes by a band of lawless couspiratora against the
Republic, have shown such misdirected sympathies
and such utter lack of the first instincts of patriot
ic JULto. make them dg_gK£r.PUs counsellors in the
A lit-uniι. il. That we have soldier»· and sailors who
in the field aud on the sea are upholding the unity
aud glory of our country aud deserve and receive the
heartfelt gratitude of every loyal citizen and we
urge unon our National aud State Governments the
most libe ral recognition of their patriotic services
and sacrifices.
6 Rttolttd, That lion. Hannibal Hamlin, Vice
President of the United States, aud our two senators
if Congress, be requested to repair to Washington
immediately for the purpose of urging upon the
President the importance and necessity of placing
along the coast a suflicient naval and military force
to protect the commerce of the country from pirati
cal depredations of the rebels, aud to have the same
accomplished in such manner aa shall be most effi
cient aud expeditious.
β k* nul red. That this Convention pledge the
hearty support of tee loyal people of Maine to Hon.
Samuel 1 oar, to-day nominated for the office of
(iovefhor o! the State, and that thev testify at the
Soils the constaucy with which the l)irigo State ad
eree to the Union and the Constitution, thruogh all
the chances aud cliauges of fortune.
The reading of the resolves was frequently
interupted by applause, aud they were unani
mously adopted with every demonstration of
enthusiasm.
- 1 HE l'OBTLAND 1ΊΠΛΤΙ8."— Upon tills
prolific theme, ini«lcil by ite exchanges, the
Boston Journal lias given currency to α lot of
rumors and suggestions that are not only ab
gurd in themselves but are entirely without
foundation, in fact the suggestion that the Ta
cony has not been destroyed and that the pri
vate journal from which quotations have been
made is a "blind," are of this character. Those
who take this view caunot have looked care
fully either at facts or into that journal. The
Itook has all the internal evidences of genu
ineness, and its statements tally perfectly
with known facts. More than this, the burgee
of the Tacony, with the name upon it, and
other flags belonging to the vessel ,also the chro
nometer and 'he tin case containing the vessel's
papers are all in the hands of Collector Jew
ett at the Custom House; while the log-book
and private journals giving the operations of
that vessel have all been forwarded to Wash
ington.
The Journal copies from the Argus that sev
eral of the Cutter's crew were discharged at
their ow n request, because they would not
serve with Wish whom they accused of cow
ardice or something worse. We arc author
ized to say this is all a fabrication. The story
of their request and refusal, upon investiga
tion, was found to have no foundation, while
the men were discharged at the request of the
Collector, their mouth of service being ended.
While we are U|>on this matter we will state
another fact, touching the enormous sums of
money said to be iu the hands of these men,
and being lavishly used by them. When they
were taken to the Fort they were thoroughly
searched and ererything taken from them
money included. The gross amount of money
found upon the whole of them, officers and
mcu,was about tweniy-flve dollars,in gold and
silver. While we are dailj complaining of the
rebels for the treatment of our soldiers who
fall iuto their hands, it becomes a question
whether we are to violate the rulu in our
treatment of others which we complain of
tlicui for violating iu their treatment of our
own friends; whether we should forget the
rules of civilized warfare because they acttho
part of brutes.
One word more : The highest judicial offi
cer in this city has suggested that the status
of the crew of the Tacony will be determined
by the government, by the genuineness of the
commissions held by their officers in the Con
federate Navy, and not by the vessel in which
they were taken. If they legitimately took
the Archer, according to the rules recognized
in this war, their adoption of that vessel in
stead of the Tacony could not well change their
status At least, tho prisoners are in close
custody, under instructions of the government,
I and they will be safe there. No oue need
' doubt that.

Cy* The London Spectator notices as " a
curious fact," that out of the eight essays sent
in at Oxford for the Chancellor's prize for the
best Latin essay on the present American
struggle—the lubject proposed by Lord Der
by—seven are on the Northern side. More
over, several of the writers had begun their
labors as true Southerners, but had been con

which a thorough study of the subject brought
before them.
ΐ3Γ"ΟιΐΓ Washington correspondent informs
us mat a con.mutée ol Dutchmen irom the

President the other day and plainly told him
that the border counties of the State are now
in favor of recognition and will hencelortli
openly advocate it. On demanding the cause
of this alarming defections it leaked out that
these patriotic citizens had lately come into
possession of a large amount of Confederate
scrip.
£y*The Argus has come to grief, one would
think from reading its last number, because
Gov. Coburn was not renominated. But the
reason assigned by that paper shows how deep
ly it has put its foot iuto matters of which it
is entirely ignorant. It gives as a reaion for
Gov. C's., defeat that he was not satisfactory
to the Kenncbec Journal. Now it happens
that the senior editor and proprietor of the
journal was about thelast man to yield Gov. Co
burn's uame,or|to appreciate any reason urged
for the adoption of a new man. The Adverti
ser, disagreeing with the Argus,says the Jour,
nal had announced Gov. Coburn's nomination
almost authoritatively. The <vitnesses don't
agree.

in her are. also there. Her cargo is said to
cost $50,000. It is openly reported by the pur
chasers of the steamer that she will shortly re
turn with a cargo of cotton."
It may be added that reports say the Boston

of the Gen. Banks when they sold her. By

Fort Preble, Me., July 3d, 1863.
A Long Voyage.
The arrival of the ship Richard Busteed,
commanded by Capt. Richard Mitchell of this
city, at Sydney, N. S. W., is at length report
ed. The ship sailed from Manila on the 10th
September, bound to Sydney, with 24,442 bags
sugar, (50 bales bags, and reached her porf of
destination on the 3d April, after a voyage of
almost seven months. She started from Man
ila short-handed, and sailing between the mon
soons fell in with light airs and calms ; but the
chief cause of her prolouged passage was an
attack of "scurvy which go reduced the
strength of the crew that very little sail could
be set. She finally put in to Hobart Town in
distress on the 7th March, after α voyage of
178 days, duriug the latter part of which tho
captain and officers had been compelled to
work the ship alone, and to live almost solely
on salt meat. The following account of the
voyage was furnished to a iiobart Town jour
nal by Capt. Mitchell:
We sailed Irom Manila on the 10th Septem
ber, 1862, and came through Mindore Sea,
Ba/.allau Straits, Bandy Sea, and the Straits of
Timor, and had light airs aud calms all the
titne. We got as far west in the Indian Occau
as 05 deg. cast longitude, before we could
make any progress to the southward. We
then had the wind between S.S.W. aud S.S.E.
About this time the scurvy made its appear
ance on one man who shipped at Manila. We
were then about 120 days out, aud then the
carpenter discovered that the main yard was
quite rotten under the chafing copper. We
managed to send it down and fix a spare one.
This was done when only three men were laid
up. At last one after another gave up, and
we found ourselves without a single sailor.
Some time after, one man feeling a little bet
ter, came upon deck and continued to work
till our arrival at Hobart Town. We encoun
tered several heavy gale.-, aud were obliged a
number of times to heave the ship to. During
oue of these gales the salt water got into our
fresh water tank, aud the cousequeuce was we
have had only as allowance two quarte of
brackish water to each man. On Thursday
night last was in Storm Bay. The weather be
ing thick and cloudy, aud not being certain
which was the entrance, we ran the ship down
to l)'Entreca«teaux Channel, knowing that
there was a light there. On Friday night iu
coming up the Channel, we fired several guns,
and showed several lights and flashes in hopes
of getting assistance, but noue came. Was
■«calmed all ulght within two ships' length of
he rocks, and iu the morning a fisherman
•ame aud asked me If I was acquainted with
Jie Channel aud uaid we were iu a bad chan
nel, and no pilot could be obtained there.
The fisherman said he was no pilot, but could
hew us the way up, which he did and we
ouud him very useful. We were in Sandy
lay before a pilot boarded us, and he took the
vheel.
When the Bustecd was boarded at Iiobart
fown, the whole ship's crew was so exhausted
s to require help from on shore to bring her
ο her moorings. · That afternoon all the 6ea
len—ten in number— were removed to the
fovernment Hospital. Five were at the point
f death. The joints of some of the poor fol
>ws could not be bent by main force. They
eceived the utmost care, and were iu a fair
•ay to recover when the paper from which
'e learn these facts was printed. The officers
